Very friendly staff, treat us as family, making our 7-night stay very comfortable! The owner Mustafa is very kind. Although he speaks little English, Hany and Hussein both speak excellent English. They are very helpful to accommodate our dining and room needs and kindly consult us about trips around Cairo. The breakfast and dinner are very nice, and the staff adapted to our needs for occasional early breakfast at 6 am. The pyramid view is gorgeous, location is perfectly accessible for hotel pickups for several tours and Uber. By the time of our travel (Dec 2024), the hotel is preparing to expand from 20 to ~50 rooms. Wish them a lot of success!

An elder women welcomed us she has such a great smile gave us dates as welcome gift. Hana is very communicative person and reached us before we went to their place. Even offered is to make Turkish coffee. Rooms are very nice equipped with mini fridge and beds are so comfortable. Beautiful view on the terrace and Its really the best option for its price. Pyramids are so nearby (which you can go very early to avoid crowds.) They kept our luggages safe till we wait for our bus. Very trustworthy and warm people.

The room is clean, the view at the terrace for the pyramid is amazing. Mahmoud is helpful in information and private car arrangements. Due to the delay of my baggage, he took me to buy the necessary stuff and made phone calls to the airport baggage service. Highly recommend this property

Great location close to the pyramids and other destinations so didn’t have to drive for hours every day. Roof was furnished so could enjoy the view with a drink and some food. Everyone working there were really friendly and nothing seemed like too much hassle for them, booked all of our days/nights out through reception with all guides and drivers very knowledgeable and great to chat with

Amazing place to stay! Omar and Mohamed are amazing hosts who you can trust. Loved their hospitality! They also helped us to get a SIM card, had a smooth transfer and they respected our privacy a lot. I read some negative comments about the location. There was nothing wrong with it really. It can be a bit different to somebody from Europe but that is what we expected obviously. Otherwise the whole guest house was really private. Amazing value for money Wishing you all the best guys and thank you!)

Karim is a great guy! He helped us in every single thing and more... he was always willing to help and have a little conversation. We are very happy that we chose his place to stay in Giza. The view from the terrace is perfect, maybe 10 minutes walking to the pyramids. He kindly washed my clothes, no charge. He also brings tea and shampoo every morning. Place always clean and tidy. And more things to add, but I prefer that he surprises you...

    Great host-family with excellent service. The accommodation was very near to the Pyramids and super-clean, view was amazing. Breakfast was enough and excellent quality. It was Mr Mahmoud and his family, who were kind, friendly and customer-focused, made my stay special. I felt valued and been treated like a family member. This amazing accommodation and host family deserve a tourism award for their hard work and best service.
