I ALWAYS stay here when i visit Cairo. It is in the perfect location and has wonderful views over Tahrir Square and the Egyptian Museum. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and treat guests like family. Sure, it can be loud at night, but that comes with the location. Take a 'white noise' playlist and you'll be fine. Enjoy your stay!

City View Hotel was amazing! The hotel management did a wonderful job ensuring me and my family were comfortable and had necessary transportation. The room was very clean, the bathroom was on the small side but we were okay. I loved how it was in the center of everything! We literally went to the Egyptian museum right across the street from the hotel. We could walk to nearly any store, restaurants we very close and I absolutely love the coffee shop right next door! My husband is sold and we will stay here again Yahweh Willing in the future.

I always have a great time at City View Hotel. The team are friendly and the hotel clean - what more do you need?! Nobody visits Cairo to stay in their hotel (I hope!) so this is the perfect centrally located base from which to experience the city.
