Sahara Pyramids Inn is a 3-minute walk to the Pyramid Complex. This is an unbelievable benefit. The hotel itself is clean and safe and staffed wonderfully. Breakfast on the rooftop is wonderful. Be aware: it’s in a poor neighborhood. Just be careful. Everyone we met and/or spoke with was kind and good.

Sahara Pyramids Inn has a beautiful view of the pyramids. Breakfast didn’t have too many choices but ok overall. Dinner much menu better and well priced. What really made this hotel special for me was the extraordinary help they provided us with booking a Nile cruise tour with very little time. The Noor Egypt tour company on Viator changed our cruise reservation a day and a half before our departure. Apparently this is a common thing in Egypt. So I cancelled my booking on Viator quickly to get the refund as their change was not going to work for us because we had flights already arranged. I thought my kids were going to miss out on the cruise I told them about, but the staff at the front desk organised everything from pick up at Aswan Airport, to all the sites I wanted, and drop off at Luxor airport. And on a luxury ship with very little difference in price from my original tour. Best of all when they said something was included, it was, and no extra tips pushed on. I am so grateful for their help. I usually don’t use hotel tours because I book ahead, but they definitely know how to help. Thanks to the Sahara front desk fellows my disappointment from my cancelled tour turned out to be the best decision.

The view from this hotel is amazing but that is the only positive. Rooms are horrible, tiny and dirty. Staff tried to convince us to pay $80US each to tour the Pyramids across the road, they also wanted to charge us $1000 pounds each to sit on the rooftop for the sound and light show even though we were not ordering food. Felt like we were being scammed by the staff inside the hotel more than by the people on the street. Breakfast was inedible, old meat and cheese half covered in filthy cling wrap with flies on it. Oranges were literally mouldy. We were too afraid to eat there after seeing the breakfast on the first morning of our stay. Thank god Rooftop 7000 is next door for safe and clean food and a superior view. We were counting the days until checkout.

Stayed here for 5 nights October 2025. Staff was extremely friendly and welcoming, room was clean and the price was very budget friendly. The room was exactly what i needed since most of the days i was out and about enjoying the area. The view from the rooftop lounge of the Pyramids is absolutely insane and worth the visit to the lounge or to stay at the hotel. I spent almost every evening up there to enjoy the view before bed. Will stay there next time im in Giza.

You’ll get the best view of the Pyramids from this place. It’s literally right across the street. Excellent stone work inside. Also has an upper deck for eating & observation which is really great. The mattresses are extra firm. Not my preference but the room a/c will freeze you out. Breakfast is included. Not your average western omelette but it’s filling. You Love the view.

Unbelievable View and Staff! Review of Sahara Pyramids Inn Pending review The rooms themselves are just fine (I recommend the double deluxe), but not much different than other places. Where this place really excels is with their staff and views. The staff are incredibly friendly and they have 2 rooftop areas with the most incredible views of the Pyramids and Sphinx, with excellent food and atmosphere! A big shout out to Moka, Basha and Islam M!! Do not hesitate to stay here and spend the evenings staring at the amazing views! We will be back for sure!

Staff was super friendly and accommodating. My room was clean and no funky smells. Bottled water was provided. The bed was a futon style pad on a raised box. I had plenty of hot water. The food at the hotel was great. No security box in the room. The hotel has a commanding view of the pyramids is about 30 meters from the entrance to the pyramids park. It’s a great hotel that gives you a feel of old Cairo with all the camels and horse drawn buggies running back and forth. The nightly light show at the pyramids is visible from the balcony. The Spinx is slightly obscured by a tree, but otherwise the view is perfect. The hotel is more of a spartan style hotel for urban explorers that want to stay close to the pyramids. I loved it and would recommend it to a friend. The area has a heavy police presence because of the park and is safe to walk around at all hours. An ATM is just down the road by the entrance to the park. The street vendors can be a nuisance. They stopped bothering me by the end of the second day.
