Guest sentiment

  • Cleanliness8.5

    Multiple reviews mention the hotel, kitchen and food being very clean; overall cleanliness is frequently praised though isolated issues (smoking in reception) were reported.

  • Service9.0

    Staff, guest relations (named employees), security, reception and housekeeping are repeatedly described as helpful, professional and excellent, despite a few comments about poor service in one review.

  • Location9.0

    Location is consistently praised as prime/central and close to services (Tahrir Square/وسط البلد); a few complaints about traffic noise due to corner position, but overall location is a major positive.

  • Room Quality6.5

    Several comments cite old rooms/windows, only one bathroom in a suite, and requests for room quality improvements — mixed to negative sentiment on room condition.

  • Amenities7.5

    General amenities are acceptable, but specific amenities (promoted cruise boat/dinner) received strong negative feedback and there are calls for improvements to services and facilities.

  • Value for Money7.5

    Many guests find the hotel recommended for its location and service, but complaints about extra charges (cruise photos/sales), seasonal price increases and perceived overpricing affect perceived value.

  • Food and Beverage7.0

    Mixed feedback: some guests praise breakfast variety and atmosphere, while others report poor breakfast quality and a very negative experience with the cruise dinner.

  • Overall Experience9.0

    Overall impressions are largely positive with several glowing endorsements and repeat-customer intent, tempered by a minority of strong negative experiences that did not dominate the overall sentiment.

The staff especially Mustapha and CHRISTINE WERE SO WONDERFUL. WE ENJOYED OUR MEALS. CHRISTINE HAD TO MAKE SURE SHE GAVE US RICE AND SPAGHETTI THAT WE ASKED FOR.

To the dear Cleopatra Hotel team ❤️🇪🇬🇩🇿 From the bottom of my heart, I would like to express my sincere thanks and gratitude for the warm welcome, hospitality, and excellent treatment that I received from you throughout my stay. I am Algerian, and this was my first visit to Egypt, and I was very happy and fortunate that my first experience in this beautiful country was with kind and respectful people like you. I truly felt like I was among my own family, not just a guest at the hotel. ❤️ Many thanks to Uncle Jamal, Christine, Bisho, Rami, and Munir for your kindness, care, smiles, and good treatment towards me. Each one of you has left a beautiful memory in my heart that I will not forget. 🌷 Special thanks also to Hassan and Hani, Uber drivers, for your respect, kindness, and assistance during my trip. ❤️ I am very happy that my first trip to Egypt introduced me to wonderful people like you. I will leave Egypt, but I will carry with me the most beautiful memories, and your names and faces will remain in my heart and memory. Inshallah, this will not be my last visit, and I will return to Egypt again, hoping to meet you again. 🇩🇿❤️🇪🇬 Thank you from the bottom of my heart, and may God protect you, make you happy, and bless you always. My love and appreciation from Algeria to Egypt ❤️

Central location, although this implies constant street noise throughout the night, every day.

Central location, although this implies constant street noise throughout the night, every day.

Old and smelly bed and bath linens. Bar/restaurant staff completely uninterested in service despite being numerous. One day when we used a Booking.com tour to go to the Pyramids, not arranged by the hotel, they called the Police who detained us and the driver for about 20/30 minutes. At the reception, they later told us that it is the hotel and police's policy to have this kind of behavior for the "security" of the guests. In other words, our safety only exists with taxi tours ordered by the Hotel. The hotel is empty on the intermediate floors, only having rooms on the upper floors (it seems to have been destroyed and is being rebuilt from the top)
