Quick and smooth service, very nice food, & vibes
Bathroom a bit smell fro Sewage and Loud music
Lovely place with good hospitality ..
فندق جميل وإقامة جميلة
بعده عن مدينة الإسكندرية
The staff is amazing and very polite - Clean hotel and rooms - comfortable beds and pillows - good a/c - good elevator - noce garden - good breakfast- good water pressure
All was good
Location, cleanliness, quietness, service
Car parking is difficult to find a spot and the breakfast buffet must be improved in quality, especially the bread and all pastries.
Perfect stay in Alexandria, Value for the money Friendly staffs, Good service, Food was delicious, I stayed for 7 nights- every day it was like a check in brand new room. The cleaning staffs made my room so good, clean and tidy. This is my first time i use a Gym while travelling and was so satisfied - feel like hitting a proper Gym to meet your routine workout. I strongly recommend and will prefers to stay if am coming again to Alex.
Break fast could have been with much more better options. But whatever they have provided was good in overall.
70年代を感じさせる懐かしい調度品と広い部屋。
食事は代金に対してやはりシャビーです。 エジプト全体がそうなのでポイントではないかも。
Was calm and clean and the staff were very friendly
Evrey thing was amazing
The property was clean and the room was well maintained, Ashraf at the reception was specially excellent, and provided really good customer service.
Nothing
Good place to stay near Alexandria. I didn't use much of it's facilities as I stayed only one night, but everything looked decent.
The place is comfy
The bed smell is so bad thanks god I have my spare to use it
The staff are all amazing. They are extremely friendly and helpful. There was natural honey comb during breakfast which was great together with a lot of fresh fruit.
The location is peaceful but a bit faraway from Alexandria main city and it can be difficult to get an Uber sometimes. It would have helped if the hotel offered a shuttle bus or perhaps someone with standard rates. Breakfast food is ok but somethings can be better like hotdogs.
Estuvimos 2 noches porque nuestro vuelo llegaba a las 2:40 y este hotel está cerca del aeropuerto. Nos vinieron a recoger pues a esas horas era complicado pedir un taxi. El hotel es maravilloso con 3 piscinas para relajarte las habitaciones amplias y bonitas el servicio muy bueno y el personal amable dispuesto ayudar en todo lo que necesitamos
Todo perfecto
Very good

Great stay! The hotel was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The staff was friendly and helpful, specifically Nader and Sherine. Overall, a smooth and enjoyable experience.
المكان نظيف ومجدد وقيمة مقابل سعر والافطار ممتاز
I had another very pleasant stay at Africana Hotel & Spa. The hotel remains a quiet and comfortable place, perfect for rest after a long trip. I would especially like to mention the night receptionist, AMR (I hope I spelled his name correctly). Because my flights usually arrive late at night, every time I come he is there — always calm, professional, and very kind. He facilitates the check-in process extremely quickly, which is something you truly appreciate after a long journey. He has also been very helpful regarding invoices and documentation, handling everything efficiently and with great professionalism. I would like to thank the entire team for their hospitality, kindness, and professionalism. Once again, a wonderful experience — 10+!
One of my favorite places to relax ,read,high expert staff
Cleaning, Quite& warm
Breakfast
The location is lovely and staff is friendly and professional especially sherine from reception she is really cheerful person and helpful and also Ashraf from reception is efficient. Thanks for both of you !

Nice hotel
Everything is perfect for the airport.
The time of the year as the swimming pools are closed. Maybe they should invest in some pool heaters
Great service with excellent hospitality
Room very luxury and clean and staff very helpful
Nothing
The hotel is clean, quiet, and well located, with friendly and attentive staff. The pool area is pleasant, and the rooms are spacious and comfortable..I really appreciated the peaceful atmosphere and the kindness of all the staff — from the security guard to every person I met. People know how to keep a smile on their faces, even though it’s clear that life is not easy in that area. Congratulations to everyone for their warmth and attitude!
Breakfast could be improved by adding higher-quality products, especially regarding cold cuts and cheeses. It would also be nice to have an better espresso machine offering better coffee at breakfast, matching the overall standard of the hotel. . I believe the price could be slightly lower, considering the area and the overall services provided.
Everything is in the perfect room,restaurant, food atmosphere and staff hospitality special the reception team
Nothing
I checked in late night and the reception was open 24 hrs, which was excellent. The breakfast was fantastic. There is a pool and it is very clean water - overall the impression is excellent. I work in tourism and I have been in many hotels, and this hotel has been a great experience.

I stayed at the Africana Hotel and Spa just outside of Alexandria for a few nights while attending an event nearby. The hotel itself is very large, with multiple pools, a restaurant, and a buffet breakfast. My room was very spacious, which I appreciated, and overall, the facilities were well maintained. However, I found that the staff weren’t particularly friendly or welcoming. I’m not sure if it was due to cultural reasons, my being a solo female traveler, or simply the hotel’s service style, but it didn’t feel very warm or personable. The biggest issue for me was that all the rooms allow smoking, and as a non-smoker, that made my stay quite uncomfortable. My room reeked of cigarette and cigar smoke — it lingered on the bedding, pillows, curtains, and even the walls. The smell was overwhelming and made it hard to relax or sleep comfortably. On a positive note, the dinner at the hotel restaurant was really good and reasonably priced, while the breakfast was just okay. Overall, the hotel served its purpose for the event I needed to attend, but I wouldn’t recommend it for solo female travelers or non-smokers. With a bit more warmth from the staff and designated non-smoking rooms, it could be a much better experience.
Room big size Pool is shinny Staff helpfully and smiling
Location from main road
Really fantastic location and surroundings
Breakfast could have been better. Some of the items weren’t as fresh as they could have been
Clean, 24 a hour service,big room
The room was great The food was great
Nothing really
I had a pleasant stay at Africana Hotel & Spa. The peaceful atmosphere and the comfort of the room made a big difference. Everything was clean, spacious, and well maintained, and the staff was friendly and responsive. Breakfast was good, but there is room for improvement – a bit more variety and fresh options would make it even better. The hotel is located in a quiet area, which is perfect for resting, although a bit far from the city center – but this can be an advantage, depending on what you're looking for. Our request for adjacent rooms was honored, which we appreciated. Overall, a great price-quality ratio, and I would gladly return or recommend it to other travelers.I would also like to express my appreciation for Shireen, a remarkable person I first met at this hotel 4-5 years ago. She is truly dedicated and deeply involved in her work, and it was a pleasure to see her again. The airport transfer was well organized and offered at a fair price ( 600 egp), which we greatly appreciated.
One thing that could be improved is the cleanliness of the hallways and reception area – these shared spaces would benefit from more frequent and thorough cleaning. The room itself was very clean and well maintained, but from my personal point of view, the overall impression would be even better if the common areas matched the same standard.
Everything was perfect.
Iron in the room was available in the past but now it's replaced by paid laundry and ironing service . I hope.to make it available again upon request .
Africana Hotel is the best I've been, really my favorite hotel. I have to come to Alex time to time cause of business and the hotel has always the best manners. Ms Shireen and Mr Asharaf are the best managers, giving assitance and solutions to any problem, internal or externals. I consider them as my friends. Thank for all the attentions!
Tidy, clean & big
Nothing

Good option If you need a hotel not too far from Borg el Arab airport. Check-in was possible in the middle of the night. The room was spacious and comfortable. The balcony has a sea wiev. The breakfast was very good with vast options of pastries.
Great hotel. Clean premises with nice breakfast!
Really nice place, high quality, spacious rooms, comfy beds, good restaurant.
The location is a long way from the city of Alexandria, but fairly close to the airport.
Good view and clean
