Giza Pyramids Inn

Our stay at Giza Pyramids inn was absolutely perfect from start to finish! The hotel is spotlessly clean, and the rooms are modern, comfortable, and well-maintained. The staff provided exceptional service always friendly, professional, and ready to assist with anything we needed. We were also very impressed with the tours and travel services offered by the hotel. Everything was well organized, on time, and guided by knowledgeable and friendly experts. They made exploring the pyramids and other attractions in Egypt so easy and enjoyable. This hotel truly delivers great hospitality, excellent service, and unforgettable experiences. We highly recommend Giza Pyramids inn to anyone visiting the Giza area we will definitely be coming back!

We highly recommend Giza Pyramids Inn to anyone looking for comfort, cleanliness, and a stunning view of the pyramids!

Incredible spot with direct views of the pyramids. You can't get any closer to history

Dirty, room not clean. The walls are so thin we hear all the noise and from outside. I got to say the staff from the roof top is really nice.

Website is showing something else and hotel is showing something else. They need to fixed staff if they want customers.

Once we were checked into the correct property, the stay was ok. The driver did show up to pick us up at Cairo Airport, so we started on the right track. The driver, was nice and spoke good English, he mentioned he was just the driver for the hotel and he had a day job at another hotel during the day. He drove us at 2:30am to a Hotel called Pyramids Glory Inn, they made me believe this was where I made my reservation. Filthy place, my room on the last floor, no elevator. I refused to stay here because this was not the place I reserved. After they saw me upset, they told me that had another property around the corner and they could show it to me, to see if I liked it. Of course this is where I had made my reservation, Giza Pyramids Inn, with a roof top restaurant, elevator and my room with the view of the pyramids. To my surprise our driver was there, in charge of reception with another guy. They mentioned to go rest and tomorrow management would talk to me about the extra payment. I told them I had already paid and there were no conversations to be had. They never bothered me again. If the driver would have taken me to the right property the first time, they would have gotten a 5 all the way. They try to scam you, if you let them. They have multiple properties and they put you wherever they feel like. I had my reservation and room details with the name of the hotel. They think because you are tired and jet lagged, you will just take what they give you. Be careful!

Hotel is clean and comfortable. We got upgraded to a room that has the view of pyramids. Thank you!

Fantastic stay. Egypt is chaotic so it’s nice to be in a hotel that looks after you and makes sure you know what you are doing and will help in any way they can. There driver Islam was amazing, great hospitality. I wouldn’t recommend anywhere else. And the views are the best around.

Beautiful rooftop view of tbe pyramids. Nice and helpful staff, made me feel safe as a female solo traveler. Room is small and as to be expected for the price. If you're looking for a great rooftop to see pyramids then that is the highlight of amenities. The staff were nice and helpful with recommendations.

An amazing hotel. Woke up to a rooftop breakfast right next to the Sphinx and Pyramids. The room and bathroom are clean, efficient and modern. The staff is excellent, helpful and professional.

AVIOD AT ALL COST. Book only if you want to ruin you vacation. These people are big cheaters and looting people of there money. Even if you decide to take a risk and book a room just execting a good view of pyramids, never ever prepay for the room else you will be left at the mercy of the hotel. I ignored the warning by some other previous travelled reviews and paid the price. This is highly overrated and overpriced inn (not a hotel). I booked a luxury room here with multiple beds looking directly at the pyramids for 200 USD months in advance. Also I was in touch with the owner and he confirmed me that the room is exactly what I booked for. But to my horror when I landed at hotel I was told that the room is assigned to someone else and we are offered a smaller room with side view of pyramids, not direct room what I booked for and he confirmed also. The room was small and filthy. Then he offered me 2 rooms on the roof and told they will be ready in an hour, when I told I want to see the rooms he resisted but on my insistence they shwoed me the rooms. i was taken aback to see that these we not even guest rooms, these were servan tquarters which he wanted to clean and settle me there. I was furious. Luckily I was with a local guide and he helped me in arguing with the owner, after lot of arguments and pursuing he settled me in a nearby hotel but still the view was not good as I booked initially. It spoiled my whole experience as I was visualizing Pyramids view from that room I booked for months in advance but finally it was not to be. So these poeple for a small anmount of gain can ruin your whole journey which you have been planning for months and probably once in a lifetime. They are doing a grave injustice to the wonerful people of Egypt as these experiences spoils the name of whole country, but who cares he would have gained few dollars by selling my room at a higher price to someone else. Without local guide I would have been at the mercy of the owner. Initially they were not allowing my guide to go with me in the room as this probably was a regular incident and they anticipated this. Luckily my guide forced his way into the room. Those plannig a trip to Egypt specialy with family, PLEASE make sure you have a local guide with you all the time else you will ruin your vacation, this is true without exceptions, however smart you think you are, you will fail in Egypt.

Good

We stayed 2 nights . Jana and the entire team were fantastic. Thank you all

We stayed 1 night: USD 136 for a "deluxe" double room with view. Almost double the price of competitors with similar view. For convenience, we arranged airport pickup through the hotel (USD 25 - more than Uber), and this was still fine. However, the red flags started during our check-in. Red flag #1: Before our trip, we booked a day tour (Pyramids + Cairo Museum) through the hotel. We emailed the hotel to check if the guide can drop us at Cairo train station (just a 10 mins drive from the Museum) after the tour, and they said yes. During check-in however, the owner wanted to charge us extra USD 25 for this "extra service", which was NOT highlighted to us upfront at all. After I told him the station is literally just 10 mins drive from the Museum (instead of having to drive us 1 hour back to the hotel), he made up some bs about leaving luggage in the car, and still charged us USD 15. Red flag #2: The owner was extremely eager to change USD into EGP for us. So that we would change more money with him, he blatantly lied to us that all attractions ONLY accept EGP in CASH, but not to worry, as he can change EGP for us at official market rates (1 USD: 30 EGP). What a good deal, right? However, we found out the next day that all attractions only accept CREDIT CARDS, and so we were stuck with excess EGP cash. It gets better: the next day while waiting for our guide, the porter offered to change 1 USD: 40 EGP for us, which we declined. It was all rather puzzling, until we later learnt from other tourists that there is actually a black market rate (just google it) where they can change 1 USD: 50 EGP!! Red flag #3: Speaking of attractions, the day tour did NOT include any entrance fees, and we had to pay everything ourselves (with credit card, of course). Again, this was NOT highlighted to us upfront at all. Perhaps the biggest red flag is that after I posted this exact review on Book**g[dot]com (where I booked the hotel), they immediately removed the listing and have re-listed it with just a few reviews (ALL WITH PERFECT 10 SCORES, SURPRISE SURPRISE). You be the judge.

From the moment we stepped into the Giza Pyramids Inn, we were enveloped in a warmth that only true hospitality can provide. The hosts weren't just attentive; they felt like friends, always ready with a smile and eager to assist with our needs. Their knowledge of Cairo, shared through handy pamphlets for tours and activities, enriched our experience beyond measure. Our room was a cozy haven, offering comfort and relaxation at a reasonable price. Even a minor issue with a cracked bathroom door was easily overlooked, as it did nothing to lessen the inn's charm. The crown jewel of our stay was breakfast on the rooftop. As we savored delicious food, the view before us was mesmerizing - the pyramids and the Sphinx, illuminated by the morning sun, provided a backdrop so surreal, it felt like stepping into a dream. In every aspect, the Giza Pyramids Inn is a heartwarming choice for anyone visiting Cairo. It's where ancient wonders meet modern hospitality, creating an experience so unforgettable, it feels like a journey into the heart of Egypt. Our stay was not just a stay; it was a cherished memory in the making.

The service was good, the guy how work as waitress is a great and servicial man. Great location. Great view to the pyramids. The only concern was that if you pay with card they request a extra 10%, and the description doesn't said that we had to pay in dollars because they doesn't like egypcias pounds also anybody likes egypcias pounds in Egypt!!! So I recommend just to change a small amount of dollars.

We booked via Bookings.com, and credit cards should be accepted. Nope, they wanted cash. As we do not have enough Egyptian pounds which were meant for taxis and others, we have no choice but to pay in USD. When we asked if the reception could point us to where to buy a SIM card he telephoned his friend who came in and told us 'non-Egyptians LE900 for 3 months....' We said decline the offer. We walked over to a pharmacy, asking if he could point us to a shop too. Lo and behold, he said he do not know any. Later in the day, we saw the shop was just a few stores down the road! Our advise : 1) change your Egpytian Pound at airport or withdraw from airport ATM. 2) Get your SIM card at airport. In the city, everything is marked up to tourist with some stories. 3) When paying a taxi driver, count the money as you pay him to ensure no mistake in the amount. 4) Use UBER drivers with caution too as he may flip the location and asked to pay more especially to airport - which is what happened to us. Our location haywired, went to New York instead of Cairo Airport. Again, ignore the taxi driver when he claimed that airport check-point police asked him for money during a regular document check. He will pester you to make up the payment - of which you just nod until he drops you off at departure hall. Make sure you have your baggage unloaded before paying, again count as you pay. Hotel's location is just 3 minutes walk to Giza. Breakfast tray is reasonable. Rooftop dining with view to Giza Pyramids. Room was small and compact, with private toilet. WiFi connection was poor to none. Overall experience at the Giza Plateau, self-walk without guide was great (though we were pestered at every corner) as we spent as much time as we can at each and every spot without rush, not forgetting good photos too. We started our walk as soon as the gates are opened, from the left towards the Sphinx to Khafre Pyramid for easier walk and lesser crowds; no camels or donkeys or horse carts. Bus loads of tourists will come a different gate after 10am or so... Bring enough water and pack some lunch on the go.

Having got to the hotel l needed to pay which is fairly standard practise. Unfortunately their card machine was "broken" and they wanted cash. Not Egyptian cash but Sterling, Euro or Dollar. I said l'll pay by card using the booking.com app. No they wanted cash. By now the alarm bells started ringing in my head. I deliberately took sterling cash out there to get a better exchange rate not to pay my hotel bill with. I therefore said l shall pay cash for one night and need to get more money from the bank the next day. As l counted the money out the two blokes there were watching intently. It was really uncomfortable. I asked them if they had a safety deposit box. They said "no. No need for one. They had cameras". I got to my room and noticed straight away the door at some point had been forced and botched back together again. I didn't unpack. I went to the bar and asked for a beer. They didn't sell alcohol which is quite common. I asked them where could l buy a beer. They pointed to the Pyramid Valley Boutique hotel across the street. I set off to go there and one of the blokes followed me all the way to the other hotel. Half way there he asked me if l wanted any cocaine l said no but he wanted a tip for escorting me over. By then l was done with this place! I checked into Pyramid Valley Boutique hotel which had security boxes, took card payments, had the same great views of the Pyramids but to cap it all was cheaper per room per night. Do yourself a favour and avoid Pyramids Inn Giza!

Hotel is ok. It is very old (like most things in this part of Giza). They will nickel and dime you to death with offers for airport pickups, tours, etc. You can get better deals on your own. Overall, the hotel is fine, just don't use them for any extra services.

This hotel is in the perfect location! The view of the Pyramids from the roof terrace at breakfast is amazing, right on your doorstep. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. We chose a room with balcony, it was nice to sit there watching the traffic below (camels and horse &carts). The breakfast was filling with plenty of choice. The room was clean and spacious, 2 king beds which suited us fine (2 adults and 1 child). Coffee making facilities and fridge provided in all rooms. We sat on the roof terrace to watch the Pyramid and Sphinx sound and light show for free 🙂 Would definitely stay here again, it was ideal for our 2 nights in Giza.

We liked our stay there in room 109. We liked the breakfasts on the rooftop with a lovely view of the pyramids. The staff were polite, helpful and considerate.

This is a modest hotel and a family business. The owner and family that works there are very helpful and care for your safesty. If you need to exchange money they do it for you, if you have trouble getting transportation ask them and they will help you. Free ride from airport to the hotel and $25 to go back to the airport. They serve a good breakfast and you can get free water bottles as needed. If you need an iron just ask for it. The view from the rooftop is magical!!! You see the pyramids and Sphinx. We took pictures in the morning and at night! You can also see for free the laser show on the pyramids, since you can see it from the rooftop. There do not have an elevator but for us it was not a problem. The neighborhood is safe, just people around trying to sell souvenirs. We had a good experience and are thankful with the hotel staff.

The workers were very much helpful when it comes to tours and food choices in the area. The Wi-Fi was a little choppy. I had to stay in the lobby at times to get better service.

So, if you are going to go places and use the hotel for just sleep it is ok. The staff is great and will help you out if you need anything. While waiting for a ride outside, the owner spoke to us and made sure we were comfortable. They make good meals and the view of the pyramids are nice. It is also next door to several restaurants and stores. However, the rooms weren't all that great and had a smell. It was also noisy outside. There are no elevators, so you have to climb stairs to get to your room and the rooftop, but staff will carry your suitcase to your room. The hotel is next to several stables so it will smell like horse outside. Overall I was happy with the hotel, but if you are not a comfort inn type of person, get a nicer hotel.

Be aware: there are several small hotels or inns in this area with very similar names which can be confusing. Use the address to distinguish them. We stayed here four nights. This property has 8-10 rooms and the rooftop, where the breakfast is served, offers a great view of the Pyramids and Sphinx. Rooftop is a great place to relax at night, as well. Our room was on the third level and there is no elevator. Like everywhere in Egypt, you will be dealing with an all-male staff, who were nice. Breakfast (included) was extensive and satisfactory :cheeses, hard boiled egg, falafel, fruit, yogurt, bread, etc. Eat while enjoying a great view of the pyramids! The neighborhood is very interesting with camels and horses mixed with vehicles on the street. We felt safe here; although, like everywhere in Egypt, the shopkeepers can be aggressive in seeking a sale. The items which disappointed me were that the Inn failed to respond to my emails in advance of our arrival. I emailed twice, about 10 days apart, to confirm the reservation and the arrangements for our airport pickup. Receiving no response, we made other arrangements to get here from the airport. (Use Uber, which seems to be the best and least expensive way to get around Cairo and Giza.) A call would have been possible; however, most of the staff spoke minimal English, which may have made a telephone call difficult. Several mostly young men staff this Inn. They were nice and willing to help; however, they seem to not share information and prices for services vary. For departure, we inquired about a ride to the airport and were told $40 U.S., then a couple of days later we took a car, which they arranged, and we were charged only $25. ( Uber is less.) We asked for a 6:00 am wake-up call, which we did not receive, although being assured we would. The young man was asleep on the couch in the lobby at 7:00 am when we went downstairs. Be sure to set your alarm! We needed our luggage stored for a few hours and one young man told us “no charge”, while another said $15. Not a fancy place; however, I enjoyed the atmosphere of the neighborhood and the room was satisfactory (the shower was very small) and we would return. Wi-Fi service is spotty.

Conveniently located near the pyramids entrance gate. I think the hotel’s amenities could be more specific for example, the free airport shuttle is only from the airport to the hotel and you must stay two consecutive nights, breakfast was supposed to be served at 7:30, it wasn’t, you actually need to tell the staff if you are having breakfast so it can be made for you. We booked this hotel for the amenities, they should be more informative.

Stayed there 2 nights with friends. First line VIEWS to Giza plateau and pyramids, even the Sphinx from certain rooms. Wonderful view and picture from Top Roof Bar. STAFF: Unbelievably friendly and helpful. Special mention at Top Toof Bar to Mr ALÍ BABA , just like a father to all customers; always a smile and very witty, remembering your preferences and with a great psycologial touch . A real gentleman and a great proffessional man. Mr YUSUF was also a great help. Very CLEAN premises. Customised corridors and even the elevator/lift with Old Egiptian motives. A bit too flashy, but, it is meant for tourists. Lots of staff making sure you were properly entertained and served. ROOMS: A bit messy corridors to get to some of them. Very clean and with amenities and your own boiler for hot water (so, it´s up to you if you overuse hot water) .Good space and not noisy. More price for the rooms with a BALCONY to pyramids (but, 1st line price is also the noise and smells of the street: camels and horses to and fro). FOR LIGHT SLEEPERS I´d recomend an "STANDARD room"= "no balcony" room; just a window to an "Egitian patio" , but far from street noise, lift engine noise and crossing corridors...... so very silent for a good sleep. FRONT DESK STAFF also very welcoming and providing with anything you may need: from general information to tips on tourism, food, prices, etc. Special mention to DINA (the only woman I saw in the premises) and MUHAMAD (slim and very friendly, talking several languages- Japanesse included- who helped us with suggestions to try real local food at cheap prices , and with all the silly needs we all have when outside our own country) They all made my stay there a VERY GOOD EXPERIENCE. Cont: although my arabic is not too good, the owner seemed a bit rough to his workers. Shoudn´t do that ..... but, it is an opinion. Marraukhra, inshallah. Good luck to you all.

The hotel was OK. Friendly staff and just a few meters away from the pyramids complex entrance. The sorrounding area is a bit depressing, but that's not the hotel's fault

Had an amazing time here. Thanks to Sherif for his amazing hospitality. Walking distance to the Pyramids. Close to many amenities in the area such as: restaurants, rooftop bars, pharmacy and convenient stores.

The hotel is at the foot of the pyramids. You are so close you can see and hear the light show in the evening. Nor, Leemy and Abbdula were extraordinary! They go above and beyond what you might expect from a hotel staff. I met the hotel owner and told him about the service I received. They’ll arrange any tour you want to go on and they provide a driver and a guide, in any language you prefer. So nice to eat breakfast, on the roof or in your room. There may be more expensive hotels to stay in but for the money you’ll be overwhelmed with your stay here. Thank you Nor for taking such good care of me while I was your guest.

Sharif, the Manager is helpful and also other staff. Only room temperature was little cold since it’s winter there. Shower space supposed to be little more bigger. Hair dryer was missing, but I carried mine. Panoramic view of the pyramid made my hotel stay awesome. The price was just right and morning breakfast was delicious. I would prefer to come back again. Thank you again to the manager sharif and hotel staff. 🙏

We had a late arrival and were sent to an unfinished 6 story building. Building is under construction, building material everywhere in the stairs. Surrounded by 5 people 3am in the morning and charged credit card on the spot. Feel like kidnapped and almost called police. Nobody lives in the building but us. Next day instead of walking to pyramids they said they will send car for us. Waited an hour and a driver came, who does not speak english and kept wanting to drive us to Memphis pyramids so he can make more money. I insisted Giza pyramids he dropped us off and charge us 200EGP. Really tired and hired Uber to get back and found out this Uber driver is an exception (more later). 2nd morning, called texted manager repeatedly to tell him we want to move back to where we were supposed to stay, Giza pyramids Inn. No responses. We decided to leave to visit Cairo while getting issue resolved. 3 Uber drivers couldn't get to us even though our location is clearly on the map. An hour later a good samaritan helped talk to the 3rd driver and drove us to a place where the driver can meet us. Later learned due to road construction all normal roads into our place were blocked. 4 hours, showing reservation from Orbitz and insisting not going back, he agreed to move us. Uber to hotel and he sent a guy to go with us pick up luggage. The guy charged us 300EGP, to move back to the place we were supposed to stay originally-Giza pyramids Inn. Avoid this place at all costs.

We stayed one night and had to pay for the airport shuttle. The room was located on the 4th floor and the staff had to help with the luggage as there is no elevator. Terrace has a good view of the Pyramids and Sphinx. you can watch the light and sound show from the terrace. Breakfast was awesome with falafel, boiled eggs, bread, fruits, yogurt etc. Hotel is located just 2 minutes from the Pyramid entrance. Rooms were big but decor was dark and dingy. Water pressure in shower was weak.

We stayed there for three nights over Christmas, I arrived there early than our expected check in time ( 4.30 a.m.). As we was really tired, they provide us with a temporary room for sleeping also with breakfast, than later on about 11.30 a.m. they transferred us to our room. The room was huge with two double beds, with bathroom, air con, television, wardrobe, small table and balcony with pyramid view and street view. Breakfast and view of the pyramids from roof top is great also you can see the light show of pyramids at evening. Room and beds was really clean and presentable conditions. All the staff was very polite and helpful. At check in they asked us to pay with U.S. Dollars or with Euro currency, we said we don't have none of these and we travel from England and offer them card payments, but they refused the card payments and except cash payment in Egyptian currency also except less than quoted price, which is unbelievable. Our planned visit in Egypt was three days in Giza and three days in Luxor. During the stay at this hotel, we tried took book plane and train tickets to Luxor and we refused due stupid currency issue ( U.S. Dollars / Euro) and totally hopeless. When we mention our problem to the manager and asked them to help us, next day the owner provide one of his staff to go to the coach station and get us return coach tickets from Cairo to Luxor so, we will not face same problem on our return. They also provide us taxi service to the coach station on time. We probably could not make it without their help.

Right in front of the pyramids. Nice breakfast, multiple touring options.

They didn't have my room reservation and had us wait around 1.5 hours so they could sort it out. Which they never did, we finally went somewhere else

I would recommend this hotel. Everybody is nice and ready to help. Mimo is very helpful, informative and concern about your safety. The rooftop is awesome as well. The view of the Pyramids is spectacular. The breakfast is good.

The staff was excellent. The property needs a bit of an upgrade.

staff are nice. Memo is concerned about our safety so he adviced ume when i go outside. perfect location. The rooftop view of the Pyramids is awesome. The property needs upgradind specially the fllors. I stayed in suite 1. Big room, comfy pillows and bed. it has mini fridge. the carpet is a bit dingy. it need dusting. Overall its safe. I would recommend this property to everybody.

I booked with them 2 months a ago, once i arrived with my family at 1am (tired and hungry as our flight was delayed). When I tried to pay, the staff tried to charge me an extra £200 Egyptian money. And when I told him that he is charging me extra, he said my rate calculator is different that’s why. But when I asked him what his rate was, it was the same as mine, and then went to charge me the right amount as I was right. He told me we still had a family room booked with a view, and our room was ready. Once we went up to our room, they showed us one couple room on one floor, and another couple room on another floor. I was disappointed and went downstairs and told him that I will not accept this as we want to sleep together in a family room. He said he will arrange a family room for me now and will show me it. When I was on my way to go to the ‘family room’, he took me outside the building and into a building next door and said ‘this is the shortcut to go to the family room’. And once I entered the room, I was in disbelief. He took me to a different hotel and the room so absolutely disgusting, with horrible sofa bed, and one bedroom. The beds, sofa, furniture and carpet were all filthy and worn out. I don’t think anyone would ever live or stay there. I wish I had taken a picture of it. I was fuming and asked for a refund, he at first denied giving me it and then eventually realised he isn’t providing me the service so he gave it. He still made me pay for the taxi fee, when it was meant to be complimentary. He told me that I will never find any family hotel at this time and area. I got my refund and booked another hotel right next to them called ‘Sahara Pyramid Inn’, which had a beautiful family room with the pyramid view. And the staff were very accommodating and lovely. They even charged me less than half the price with the better service, and family room. It was £4000 Egyptian pounds with Giza Pyramids and £1900 Egyptian pounds with Sahara Pyramids Inn. I think it would be better to book at Sahara instead of the dishonest people here.

Best experience ever

This is the best hotel in Cairo after we stayed in 4 different hotels on Egypt. I did not expect that they have everything I need because they're in Giza I thought the rooms will be small and doesn't have toiletries but they exceeded my expectations. The rooms are big and their breakfast is the best because they serve in large portions compared to some hotels. Book this hotel because its so worth it! The staffs are the best too! Rooms are so clean and beds are comfortable.

I decided I would never publish a bad review. I’d just rather choose to NOT review than give a bad review! However, this place really deserves this review, as I would definitely NOT reccomend this to anyone. On our second day, someone stole my son’s phone and some money from our locked room. Went to the reception to report it, few hours later I was called by the owner to be informed that they reviewed the security footage showing that I left my room with a phone in my hand. I stressed out that my son’s iphone was stolen, and they said they would check the footage. At 22:30 I got a call on the room phone, saying the staff was in front of the room. I opened, they put me on the phone with the manager who said no one entered the room but me, and that they would not let me see the video myself (on the note: that camera was ONLY positioned to record the entrance to our room, so no GDPR issues for other guests would arise). So, even this was an affordable accomodation, in the end it costed me more that three-fold. So, I would definitely NOT repeat this, and I definitely would NOT reccomend it.

i cold view the pyramids from the roof top patio

We stayed at the Giza Pyramid Inn which is right next door to the Great Pyramid Inn.  Both offer an Amazing view of the Pyramids and the Sphinx from the rooftop. Giza has better American food, think burgers, fries, pizza, chicken tenders, etc.  Great has a fancier menu with a variety of different ethnic cuisines.  You will wait significantly longer for your dinner at Great though.  We ordered a dessert with our meal and asked for it about 20 minutes after our entrée.  We ended up leaving about 75 minutes later without ever having gotten it.  Breakfast buffet at Great is pretty decent.  Ali, the host will take good care of you.  Their juice is fresh squeezed and 100% juice and they serve the best falafel in the area. The elevator at Giza was out of order while I was there.  The elevator at Great is small. It will hold 1 person with two normal sized pieces of checked luggage, comfortably.  Each floor at each hotel burns a different incense every evening, (migraine sufferers will understand why I mention that)  The only two real "issues" were the echoes are so loud you can't tell whose door is actually being knocked on and they only give you one physical key for your room.  You have a mini-fridge, your own water heater, (takes about 15 minutes to heat for a nice shower) and a comfortable bed that doesn't swallow you when you lay on it. There are stray dogs everywhere but the two you will see most is Willie, and his son...Willie.  They are sweet boys who would come see me every night and every morning for pets. If you want souvenirs and don't want to spend more money than you need to, Hassan has an Art shop right next door with beautiful hand drawn Zodiac pictures on banana papyrus. He will put your name on it in Hieroglyphics.  Average cost is 100 - 150 Egyptian Pounds.  Just as a comparison, buying a similar Zodiac picture from the Papyrus Museum is 800-1000 Egyptian Pounds. To give as souvenirs, Hassan's are more than adequate.  A man walks around in the morning selling scarves for 50 pounds.  The same scarf is 80 pounds at the Bazaar, etc... If you want an authentic cultural experience hire KEMO (like Kemosabe) from the Great Pyramid.  Our day out with him was the absolute best day I spent in Cairo.  He took us to the Khan el-khalili (Bazaar), did all the haggling for me and got me the best prices on the items I wanted that they don't have around the hotel.  We also went to a local mall cause I needed to buy a jacket, a little market for snacks, a road side stand selling fresh fruit, the Papyrus Museum, and a perfume/essential oils shop.  He's very nice, safe, and knowledgeable.  He also managed to get my travel partners lost luggage from the airport after 5 other people from our group were turned away and told to come back the next day when the "desk was opened" If you want to go somewhere or tour something, find Kemo and he will make it an enjoyable, hassle-free, experience.  The following day I did a tour to the Pyramids, Rode a camel, had lunch on the Nile River, and went to the Egyptian museum. I spent the whole time wishing Kemo was my guide. Best pieces of advice I can give are: carry A LOT of small bills or exchange your money for Egyptian Pounds and get A LOT of 20s and 50s.  In my experience, if they ask for 100 and you pull a 50 or 2) 20s out of your pocket and say it's all you have, they will accept it rather than have you walk off. Download a free currency conversion app to your phone!  Shop owners WILL rip you off if you give them USD and they give you change in EGP.  If you want to see the sights but not sign up for an overcrowded tour, find Kemo and tell him what you want and he will make it happen. Don't let anyone fool you with "Egyptian Hospitality", NOTHING is ever "Free". And if you love dogs, take a bag of begging strips with you for Willie and the boys.

You just can't beat the view! I'm talking about staring straight into the eyes of the Sphinx itself every morning while you eat breakfast on the terrace. The staff makes themself available 24/7 and is extremely friendly. The rooms are small but have everything you need including a completely blacked out room when you sleep at night.

The young staff were friendly. the owner and the manager ignore their guesses. Their tour prices were triple the value anywhere else. the place was very very filthy in need of a lots of repairs. They need to invest in the property to charge what they charged. We were not impressed. They need more customer service attention/skills.

The staff of this hotel goes out of it way to make your stay great. They did a great jobs with friendly drivers and tour guides. Making sure our safety was number 1. They treated us like family and would recommend then/

It was clean and comfortable. Staff was really friendly. It was really close to pyramids you can see them from the rooftop.

Good place very good service and friendly

We booked a pyramid view room w a balcony. The view was very nice and the complimentary breakfast was delicious. However, we never got internet in our room, the power was out for our entire 2nd day and they wouldn’t even supply candles or flashlights to see at night so we had to shower and dress via our phone’s flashlights. No discount or apology was offered. The driver they provided charged us double for our scheduled airport transportation (we paid him because he had our luggage and we just wanted to get away from him safely). And he won’t quit messaging me on WhatsApp so I had to block him. Overall I cannot recommend this hotel and I advise to stay away if you can.

Except the view from the rooftop nothing was great about the property. The guy named Mahmoud who sits at the reception is the most cunning guy Disliked · I really thought the booking.com reviews are are credible and trusted upon but we were proved wrong the moment we got off the car. The area around the hotel is a stable are where it stinks 24/7 with loud noises and flies all around. The additional taxes didn't show up when I reserved the place only when we were at the reception were informed of it. While we were checking in the receptionist was more interested in selling his tour packages which were 70 percent hiked up then the packages in Viator. I list down the reality check which we got: No elevator in the property Rooms are tiny and windows are not soundproof as mentioned by them. And trust me it's a noisy neighborhood No jetspray in the bathroom Dirty carpets Unwashed duvet and pillow covers Breakfast is only scrambled egg, falafel and breads everyday If u booking an Uber from your hotel they wont be able to locate it and eventually they will cancel on you which you have to pay 13egp for no reason. We tried giving to Mahmoud for assisting the driver looked like he was fooling with the driver and next moment they cancelled on us. This hotel really spoiled our experience don't ever book it. The few better options I saw was hayat pyramids view right next to it, Cleopatra hotel etc

ok this hotel is for people who want to get a great view of the majestic pyramids of Giza. That is why I stayed here. I know the hotels are not 5 star in the area but that isn't what it was about. The staff are friendly and very helpful. the rooms are average. the rooftop view is great.

All personnel at the Hotel they were extremely nice and show their hospitaly, kindness and will to make you feel at home at all times

Great value for the price. Gorgeous view of the pyramids. Filling breakfast.

The view is amazing, the rooms are very nice, the free breakfast was very generous (individually cooked plates of eggs, cheese, breads, fruit juice, honey), the location was as close as you possibly could get to the Pyramids entrance, great value. The staff was not just friendly but trustworthy - I forgot my $3k laptop in the entryway and when I realized and returned for it 6 hours later they had it waiting for me.

This hotel sits right on the site of the Pyramids of Giza. It has a rooftop deck with a magnificent view.

We arrived from Alexandria after a 3hr drive and as we were checking in late one of the 2 rooms was not ready. We did start a little disappointed but throughout our 3 day stay he definitely went out of his way and was very accommodating. The location is right across the Pyramids which is great and the patio area although very small it was pretty much us up there and got to see the light show like many other places nearby. Host was great, also they did not have wine and managed to get us a bottle one night, talk about going above and beyond. I would recommend staying here as the price was very affordable and location was really close to the pyramids.

Before the moment we arrived the communication with Abdelrahman , GM was outstanding, always replying to all my questions and requests. Hotel is super clean, great terrace facing the pyramids , great view from the balcony , they even offered the PCR COVID test in the hotel without even moving or traveling anywhere. They offered us some tours which we hired and was absolutely spectacular , 5 days with Fayda the tour guide and Achnan the driver was the best 5 days in Giza. The hotel is highly recommended , don’t miss it , it’s a must .

Amazing staff, super friendly, they did everything to make us feel great, outstanding view and location, very good breakfast and super clean! If you are planning to come to Giza, don't miss this place!!

This property was within a short walking distance of the entry to the Giza complex. The employees are extremely helpful and they have a unique breakfast service available on their rooftop. I would highly recommend going here!

The property was ok, it was the staff that made the experience amazing. In general that area is very poor and dirty. When leaving hotels in the area there are people coming from every corner to harass tourists to sell items, offer a taxi or beg for money. The constant aggressive attacks from the locals is the only reason we didn't return to this hotel after a visit to Sharm. Being able to see the pyramids on the rooftop is an amazing experience and there is a restaurant just around the corner from the hotel with great food at a very reasonable price. This location was perfect for our initial arrival into Cairo because they picked us up at the airport and we were tired after excursions so we didn't need to be out except to grab dinner.

When you stay at Giza Pyramids Inn is like coming home. The service is incredible! Perfect location, clean and safe. Many things to do around the property. Someone is always available 24 hours a day 7 days a week to assist with anything needed. I will stay again if I come to Egypt again for sure.

We liked the service for the breakfast they are hard working people and also like the view on the top for the pyramids and shinx

Everything about Giza Pyramids Inn is perfect. Fantastic staff service, professionals in every way. Helpful and friendly. The room was spacious very clean. The view cant be beat! You can have a amazing breakfast with the breathless view of the Spinx and the Pyramids. The breakfast is fresh delicious and plenty. The location of Giza Pyramids Inn is perfect...you can walk to the Pyramids and you have plenty of restaurants near by for lunch or dinner. Many great stores for shopping, pharmacies and more. I say for the price Giza Pyramids Inn is a gem! Stay there you won.t regret it!!!!

room was ok,bathroom was small and shower was too small. Nice view from rooftop - where breakfast is served. Only problem - breakfast was not ready at 7 am as promised - waited 30 minutes and had to leave - very disappointing, However they did say it was coming. They did offer to give us a free dinner but we had already made dinner plans

Staffs are very kind and helpful also so funny :) And location is good to go to The Pyramid. Breakfast is fantastic :) also you can see the raiser show on the looftop.

Nice staff and kind. helpful and place is good to go to the pyramids. Also breakfast is fantastic. If I come back to Cairo I’ll stay again :)

Absolutely amazing hotel and staff. The hotel has a rooftop view of the pyramids where you can sit in the evening and watch the Pyramids Light Show every evening over dinner and drinks. The staff treats you like a guest in their own home and will go above and beyond to make sure you’re pleased. They arranged rodes, guides, and even escorted is around the area to get food. Our driver, Mohammed, even paid for our lunch when my credit card failed and took us to an atm to get cash. Highly recommended!

Our stay at the Giza Pyramids Inn was amazing. The entire staff was very helpful and always very willing to help us out with what we needed. The view of the pyramids was amazing. Thank you so very much for making our trip a pleasant and memorable one. Giza Pyramids Inn staff you all were excellent and thank each and everyone of you for going above and beyond. Gabi and Jessica

Great stay for 2 nights. Free water juice and tea. Great location just opposite to the Sphinx ticket office. They arrange for camel ride to pyramids at a reasonable rate which is recommended if you want to avoid harassment and over charging from touts and guides inside the complex. Saw free sound and light show from rooftop as it is next to pyramids. Was given a complementary drop off to airport at the end

Rooftop view of the pyramids. Staff is sweet. Room is small but has what you need.

The staff was very friendly. I liked all especially Mohamed, Badr, and helper boys Ahmed were excellent. The driver Rami was very nice and he almost like a family member. 5 stars for sure for their excellent service. By the way, the hotel has an excellent view of pyramids and sphinx.

I loved staying in Giza and the Giza Pyramids Inn was an amazing place to spend a few nights. The locals are absolutely delightful and the hotel provided excellent customer service. I highly recommend this hotel for visitors who want to really explore the everyday life of Egypt.

Did not even stay at this hotel, was moved to a different hotel around the block as they said my room had plumbing issues. Otherwise they were very friendly.

Great location for the pyramids. We were able to see the sound and light show from the balcony. The staff was wonderful and very helpful. We were upgraded to their other location with a direct view or the pyramids. The room was cozy and comfortable. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone.

The staff here will go above and beyond to make sure you are having a great time and have what you need. The view from the roof is beyond amazing. Best free breakfast I had throughout my whole Egypt vacation. The room was clean and the shower was hot.

1. The picture shown in the Expedia is not from this property. 2. This is a hostel, rooms are very small and the property is next to a stable for all varieties of animals. 3. Overall cleanliness is poor. 4. While you can see the pyramids from the roof, he view from any other directions resembles a war zone. 5. Overall rating 1-10 would be a 2. There are definitely better choices in the same area.

i loved my stay at Giza Pyramids Inn, Hani at the front desk is awesome and very helpful. I definitely recommend a stay there, the view is amazing from the terrace, the breakfast was awesome, and i had a great view to the night pyramid show

The staff is amazing and very helpful, The rooms are clean and spacious. The amenities are great. The breakfast was great but I do suggest changing it up a bit. People go to Egypt to experience it in every way possible so I suggest breakfast to be more Egyptian Tamea is perfect but instead of the yogurt and jelly add Fule (beans). Egyptian pancakes would be nice also with the black molasses, People would love that. Overall is the perfect place to stay. Great view of the Pyramids and near shopping areas and so much more. I recommend this hotel to all.

Staff was great and provided excellent service. The area around the pyramids is pretty run down so you have a bad impression as you arrive. Then you go up to your room and everything is great. The room was entirely new and clean. New rug, paint, fridge, shower, toilet it was impressive. The view from the terrace [where you have breakfast] is exactly like in the brochure. About a block in front of the sphinx. You watch the light show from the terrace. Free breakfast was good. Although the area is run down it has the benefit of giving you the opportunity to look out your window and watch camels, horses and donkeys plying their trade. We felt safe wandering the local streets and seeing life as it really is in Egypt. The only negatives is the terms of transportation to the airport is a little misleading. Only free if you stay at least 2 night. Only provided from the airport to the hotel. If you go to the hotel at the end of your trip and want a ride to the airport you will have to pay yourself. That is the only negative comment

Great food and fantastic view. The people were all wonderful!

Very Good View in front of Pyramids and suitable price.

Driver was waiting at the airport, it was a little chaotic, so this was very appreciated. The customer service at this hotel is excellent, they always look to help you-even offering to pack you breakfast before you check out or walk around Giza with you as I was a solo traveler. The light show at the pyramids in my opinion is not worth it and at this hotel you get the bonus of seeing it on the rooftop without paying. The room pictures are accurate a little outdated and no natural sunlight in my room.

The pick up from the airport was a bonus. The hotel is just off the pyramids of Giza. Breakfast was simple but enough. Excellent value

Great location right by the pyramids. Watch the light and sound show for free!

Great view of the pyramids. Also see the light and sound Show for free.

Good hotel, great hospitality, and great location! The service was great, and provided us with very good amenities. They can set up tours for you and your group right at the front desk, with fair and competitive pricing. Our room was very clean and provided plenty of space, and was a great value! I would definitely consider this hotel again based on the services, friendliness of staff, and proximity to the Giza Plateau.

Most amazing view !!!! Staff is very friendly Food is very expensive

Exceptionally friendly and helpful staff & a great generous breakfast served on the rooftop terrace, with a spectacular view of all the Giza pyramids. You can hear the Sound & Light show from the rooftop, which is a bonus.

Staff were very accommodating especially those serving at the rooftop. The shower cubicle needs to be a bit bigger though... I can barely move around in it. Other than that, it's all fair and square.

I stayed here for over a week and my stay was outstanding. Staff was always available for what ever I needed. I also took daily tours offered by this hotel, including Luxor (valley of the kings tour). Staff also showed me where to get souvenirs, and assisted me getting around town. The room was comfortable, and it had access to the roof where I enjoyed a panoramic pirámides view.

Pick up at the airport, great food, in front of Giza pyramids entrance.

GREAT LOCATION AND FRIENDLY STAFF

What absolutely superb service!!!! The staff went above and beyond for us! Best hotel and service I have ever had! Definitely recommend to anyone:)

Giza Pyramids Inn has the GREATEST, FRIENDLIEST, AWESOMEST, DOPEST, NICEST and BEST staff on planet earth. Shabn, Ahmed, Mohammad (just to name a few) are some of the coolest guys you will ever meet. The best first impression of Egypt we could have ever asked for. When I do eventually return to Giza again in the future, you bet your sweet buttercups that I am coming back to Giza Pyramids Inn in a heartbeat. You are greeted with a nice glass of hibuscus juice as well as a little Egyptian gift (its a surprise). The staff will literally do anything for you. ANYTHING. Any favor that you ask is "no problem". Their English is very good as well. And don't even get me started on the freaking rooftop lounge with a ridiculous view of the pyramids. Did you know the pyramids have a light show every night?! Neither did I until I saw it for myself. So the pyramids change colors between red, green etc. at night its amazing! Ooooo and the breakfast! First off, you eat breakfast on the epic rooftop but I just straight up loved the food. Breakfast is free and includes falafels (falafels are life now), bread with honey, jam, butter, cheese as well as healthy fruit, yogurt and other delicious Egyptian things that I forget the name off. The Giza Inn also has a ton of excursions to choose from and they are all super epic. We did a camel ride into the desert and around the pyramids plus rode ATVs in the Sahara during sunset. I have more to say but i used all of my allotted 1500 characters!!!!

Ahmed and his staff literally spoiled me to death! They treated me like Royalty. I would recommend anyone from around the world to stay at the Giza Pyramid Inn.

The staff was absolutely amazing. They hustled and catered to our requests and did everything they could to make our stay great. The rooftop view of the Giza Pyramids was fantastic. Could not have asked for more.

AMAZING VIEW, but the picture shown is from the hotel in front of it. My ONLY complaint was that we were on the third floor, the rooftop view was another 3 flights of stairs, and there is no elevator. The staff is amazing, and were always asking us if we needed anything. They served breakfast on the roof based on our schedule. The rooms were very basic, the shower tiny, but considering we spent little to no time in our rooms, the accommodations were more than adequate. Again, the staff was super.
