Le Riad Hotel de Charme has, you guessed it, lotez if charm. The staff was very attentive, the room very well decorated and comfortable. We liked the area but early/light sleepers be mindful, it is at its busiest/noisiest at night until ca. 2am while quiet afterwards until late morning so consider this. That said, we found it a perfect pied-à-terre for our short stay in Cairo.

Magical hotel in heart of old Cairo

Magical boutique hotel in old Cairo. You have embrace fully that you are in Egypt and not staying at western chain. If you do, you’ll love it. Bring ear plugs as old Cairo is lively. Great rooftop restaurant and staff really wonderful!!

This is a very funky designed boutique hotel in the old town. It is safe and the rooms are colorful and made up of lots of little nooks and crannies. I had a tv room, a room with a desk, a small terrace and a bedroom with bathroom. The decorations were fantastic. Sameh the man at the desk was very helpful.

Absolutely stunning boutique hotel located in the best street in Cairo. Rooms are bright, spacious and styled with Egyptian charm. Breakfast included Oriental or Continental options with a beautiful view of the city. The location is, hands down, the absolute best in Cairo with cobblestone streets, lots of shops, street vendors and delicious food. It can be a bit loud at night so bring earplugs. That said, I wouldn't stay anywhere else!

Le Riad Hotel de Charme has an interior exactly as shown in the photos, and the staff are well trained and very professional. It is a beautiful and well-maintained property. However, the surrounding area was extremely noisy. Loud music was played on the street until around 2:00 a.m., and the sound echoed inside the room, making it feel like being inside a concert hall. For travelers who want a quiet night’s sleep, I cannot recommend this hotel. Earplugs were provided, but they were very hard and did not fit well. They were too large, especially for women or children, and therefore not very effective. It is a wonderful building, but unfortunately very noisy.

Ok enough if you want to be in the very crowded old town. Music blared till midnight every night, Impossible to sleep. Restaurant is a welcome relief on the roof. Cars cannot get here easily, had to walk out to the main gate with our bags and the staff couldnt help with. a Taxi. The area around is not pleasant, even for a seasoned traveler. Rooms are comfortable and service at the restaurant is good. Front desk was not present most times and unable to help with recommendations etc.

This is a very unique boutique hotel in one of the most special historical locations in the world. No other hotel exits in the heart of historical Islamic Cairo and in Khan-el-Khalili. The hotel has only a few rooms, the staff is friendly and makes you feel special. The rooms (suites) are decorated with hand elected antiques, each room with a different theme. I can't say enough about the amazing experience and how special this place is!

Très bel hôtel, personnel agréable. Seul gros problème le bruit du bar juste en face jusqu’à 00h30, musique à fond. Sympa sauf si vous prenez un avion le lendemain matin Par ailleurs le restaurant rattaché à l hôtel est bon mais 2 fois plus chère que les prix standard. Au final un séjour mitigé

Hotel em localização complicada

A localização do Hotel na cidade velha é complicada. Táxi ou Uber não chegam até o Hotel. É necessário caminhar 600 m até a Avenida para poder pegar um carro. O café da manhã deixou muito a desejar. O barulho das músicas dos restaurantes próximos impedem o sono a noite. Os funcionários são solícitos e o quarto é muito espaçoso mas demasiadamente úmido.
