Excellent panoramic view of pyramids and Sphinx

One of the best panoramic views of the Sphinx and pyramids in Giza. Clear view of 8 pyramids, including the biggest three. This hotel has the highest vantage point over the shorter hotels in front. The two level restaurant on the 5th and 6th floors give you an open, unrestricted view of the entire pyramid grounds, as well as the Sphinx in front. We booked one of the 3 rooms on the 4th floor that also have a clear, unencombered view of the pyramids and Sphinx. Nice to wake up to such a view. Windows open for fresh air. Half size fridge in room, as well as kettle, coffee and tea. KFC and Pizza Hut are close by, as is the Sphinx entrance to the pyramid grounds. Drinkies, where you can buy takeout beer and other alchol is about a one km walk away. The bonus to this hotel is that whichever room you book, you can go up to the 6th floor open deck for pictures. You can also see the Wed to Sunday Sound and Light Pyramid show from the top open deck, or enclosed restaurant. Breakfast is included, and you can also enjoy lunch and dinner from the restaurant while looking out at the pyramids

Good view

This was my second time staying here and unfortunately this time was worse, little to no water pressure in the shower and the bedding was dirty. The view is amazing for the price but the hotel needs a little remodel.

Internet did not work

This hotel was literally a 5 minute walk to the entrance of the pyramids complex. The rooms were definitely dated, but the beds were comfortable and showers had plenty of water pressure. Management was super friendly and helpful arranging rides around town. Rooftop view is unreal!!!

THE ROOF TOP BAR HAS GREAT VIEWS OF THE SPHIXS AND PYRAMID, THE DUST CAN BE A PROBLEM IN THE WHOLE AREA.THE ROOMS CLEAN, GOOD HOT WATER, AND GREAT STAFF, GOOD VALUE FOR MONEY, FOR THIS 2 STAR HOTEL

Excellent Food, service and amazing view. It is the tallest top roof in the area. Friendly people, and help you with everything. Can not complaint for the price.

Amazing view of the Pyramids from the rooftop restaurant. Friendly and helpful staff. Hotel Wifi doesn't always work.

The hotel has a great location, very good breakfast and has a great view in the balcony, however the building is old (all buildings are old in Giza). It's not clean, you can see hair in the beds and pillows. They didn't clean the room during our stay and we had a terrible experience the first night, they assigned us a dirty room because the hotel was full. The second and third nights were in a better room but it wasn't clean.

Worth the price

For the price this place was great! the views were amazing from the balcony and the room we stayed in. I will say they messed up on the pickup from the airport and we had to get an uber. Communication at the hotel was good but when trying to communicate over the app before we got there was terrible. Nothing I asked or tried to schedule was done correctly. Food at the restaurant was great with a view to match. I would recommend this place or stay here again. Best bang for your buck in the area.

Marvel Stone is a nice Hitel. The staff is very friendly.

No respetan reserva pero buena vista

La ubicación en vista es buenísima, en la calle es llena de camellos caballos y mal olor pero por el precio está bien, lo que si estuvo mal es que no respetaron reserva de la primera noche eran 3 habitaciones y nos dieron 1 triple y mandaron a un guía a darnos explicaciones pero no era lo que queríamos en fin a la siguiente noche si nos dieron las que eran pero eso estuvo mal. Ducha buena, bonita vista y tenían el partido en la terraza

Very friendly and helpful staff, nothing was too much trouble. Fantastic location for the pyramids and sphinx. Room was spacious and had air conditioning. Meals from the hotel's kitchen were very nice.

Nothing below average

Good views to the Pyramids light show.

Hello, I wanted to share a review about the Marvel stone Hotel. Ever since we arrived, they have been extremely helpful in every way, the whole staff have been very respectful, professional, and nice. The hotel its in a good location with shops and restaurants near by and the most helpful thing is that they offer parking spots or help you find a parking spot. The hotel is super clean, and have awesome view to the Gyza Pyramids. lastly, the most important thing for us was how friendly the staff are and was with us. We are thankful & highly recommended this hotel for your vacations in Cairo, Egypt.

I was really excited for this hotel during my trip to Cairo. Unfortunately the staff was extremely rude and unwelcoming. I never received the rooms I paid for and they forgot to pick me up from the airport. Everything was booked over a month in advanced. I left days before my check out. I do not recommend this hotel for solo female travelers.

good people always helpful

The view from the rooftop deck is incredible. It is the highest deck in the area with the Sphinx in direct sight. First impression was terrible. There’s a stable in front of the hotel. Fortunately the odor doesn’t reach the rooms. The staff is very nice.

Absolutely Disgusting

Absolutely filthy room checked out the same day! Hard bed, dirty restroom, hair all on the bed, tables covered with muck. I have traveled most of the Middle East, Northern Africa, Europe and to Japan and I have never seen such poor accommodations. Additionally, I have never been interrupted constantly during prayer. I want every penny back.

Great hotel with amazing staff

Amazing. Such friendly and helpful staff. I stayed for 21 days and felt at home straight away. Wilk definitely come back and stay. Definitely worth getting a Pyramid view room, mine was pretty big, and the view spectacular!

pictures as described. hotel near stables so the odor can be overwhelming. it is a pandemic currently, but both rooms we were in were not cleaned well. dusty areas around bed frame, hairs all over sheets on my bed. towels didnt look clean and a charge for laundry that didnt smell clean when they returned.

Thanks to Amr, Fares, Qasem.

Very good services and great accommodation. The employees are very welcoming and they take a very good care of their visitors. The view is great from the top roof. Highly recommend.

Very spacious rooms only bathroom needs renovating

Great views and ideal for GIza

A wonderful stay at this small hotel with stunning views of the Pyramids. Room changed on request - this was due to my booking error not theirs . Lovely team at the hotel who were welcoming and helpful. Will be back

Overal, it was good compared to the hotel price.

Every staff was very friendly and kind. The reason why I chose this hotel was to enjoy pyramids in the room through the window, but family room did not have pyramid view.

Horrible and dishonest management is the primary takeaway from my experience with the Marvel Stone Hotel. I made a booking at the hotel, only to be told by the desk staff that there was no availability and that Expedia had made a mistake - when I requested a refund, I was told to contact Expedia directly. Of course, Expedia will only issue a refund if the manager of the hotel approves it. Instead, upon contacting him, Expedia sent me the following message: "We have contacted Marvel Stone Hotel and they inform us that they accommodated you and transfer you to different hotel. Therefore, there is no refund approved." This is a complete lie, as that same night (through Expedia no less) I had to book the nearby Hayat Pyramids View Hotel at my own expense because I was NOT accommodated by the Marvel Stone Hotel. That the manager continues to dishonestly claim that I was accommodated is extremely frustrating and the only negative on an otherwise lovely trip. Avoid this hotel's fraudulent management, choose from one of the many other options in Giza, and have a lovely time exploring the pyramids!

Terrible experience

This hotel is a nightmare. It’s located in a very poor, dirty, and unsafe district. The houses in front of the hotel are in horrible condition and looks scary. Our room is next to the elevator. When we checked in, I asked if noise will be an issue. The font desk man said no. That was a lie. Every 5-10 minutes it was like a train crossing our room. But they refused to change us to a quieter room. The towels smell like camel, and we found grass in them. We had to shower quickly otherwise we would be left with cold water. The air conditioning did not work, so the room was cold at night. The pyramids are certainly fascinating. If you want all good memories for your Egypt trip, don’t book this hotel.

Great location. Walking distance to the Giza pyramids and fantastic view of the pyramids from the roof top. You can watch the light and sound show from the rooftop. The only downside is the approach to the hotel which is from a back ally. If you can live with that, the property is great otherwise.

Don't get the pyramid view

We paid extra for the pyramid view, but the photos they represent on hotels.com is not the room you will get. The "pyramid" view we got was more like "other old crumbly buildings and antennas and junk" view. The room was also cold. Their heating did not work. Staying in the desert in the middle of the winter can get cold at nights, even though its hot during the day. Other than that everything else was great with this hotel. Amazing and friendly staff, up to date rooms and pleasant stay. The restaurant upstairs is very nice and the food is amazing. We really loved Ahmed in the restaurant, very pleasant experience. Be careful of the con men outside. When they see you, they do not see humans, they see dollar signs. Unfortunately seeing the amazing pyramids can be stained by the pathetic con artists all around giza, and especially inside the pyramid grounds. They will try to sell you things, they will con you, they will take your pictures and ask for extreme amounts of money. We had a guy just put me on a camel without my consent and wouldnt let me get off until we paid him $30, although he claimed that Americans usually give him $500 for a camel ride. These people are all over the place like roaches and unfortunately Egypt, and the Egyptian police do not care one bit I would take a trip to another country instead of Egypt if I had to do it again because of the lowlife Egyptians. If you're going, stay one or two nights to see pyramids and get out of there

Disaster - smelt of raw sewage

Apparently no one has heard of this hotel or knows where it is so it took ages at the airport for them to direct the taxi. Then when we got closer the taxi driver still couldn’t find it even after lots of swearing, beeping and asking people so he dropped us round the corner and we had to walk there ourselves and then was shouting and screaming that he didn’t get a tip when he didn’t even get us to the hotel. Due to all the camels and horses servicing the pyramids there was lots of poo on the floor and flys around. When we got to the hotel we were a bit earlier so we went to the rooftop to get a drink whilst we waited which was beautiful I have to say, unfortunately it only got worse from here. When we got in the room they had given us a twin room even though we had requested a double room which doesn’t make as a good start to a romantic trip and then the window was so high up you couldn’t see out of it. We swear we booked a pyramid room but they claim we didn’t but the hotels.com website is pretty misleading and the photo next to our booking was of the pyramid room. The worst bit was when we went to use the bathroom and it stank of raw sewage. Apparently it couldn’t be fixed that day and double rooms couldn’t be promised and they had no other rooms. We refused to stay there and they let us stay as a nearby hotel which was a big improvement. Overall apart from the rooftop view it was a complete disaster but they did

View from the property is amazing,tasty food and good prices.Ask at the reception for tours,they can offer some very good deals.Yihia and Mohammed are the best tour guides you can find.

This place is about location, you are steps from the Pyramids and the Sphinx. The view from the roof terrace is amazing ! However the condition of the hotel it's something to desire, during my stay we run out off water, power and internet. When we let them know they just had excuses for us . Other than the staff at the front desk, they barely understood English, the service was whining down the longer that you stayed. The breakfast was below average the same stuff every morning. The area is a slump, super dirty and full of beggars and really aggressive street sellers and people trying to rip you off !

This hotel is literally in a slum next to a barn. Very dangerous area for tourists. We had to leave out of fear.

Amazing friendly hotel staff ! They were such cool guys and the tour guide they recommended for us was amazing as well ! Breathtaking views of the pyramids from the rooftop and dinner and lunch tasted so good and was reasonable can’t wait to visit again ! Thanks for everything Khalifa !

Great location, but very outdated. Two young boys working the front desk who tried to re-charge me for my room until I showed them my reservation that was already paid for. On the hotel description on travelocity, it shows that the hotel has a gym and pool table, but the hotel has neither. Staff was friendly, but updates to the hotel and amenities/web descriptions need to be made.

Very nice hotel right next to the Giza pyramids. Remember to ask for a room with the view. The rooftop restaurant is a plus you can enjoy having breakfast/dinner with the open view of the pyramids. Staffs were very helpful and nice. Very accommodating! Highly recommend! Our family had a great time staying at this hotel.

This hotel has an amazing rooftop view of the pyramids. The customer service is good at time their may be slight confusion due too language barriers but overall they do a great job. The hotel is not in the condition that the online pictures display, I assume those are old pictures of when it first opened. They could do a better job with the cleanliness of the rooms, towels were dirty and it was clear the sheets had not been changed. They had no problem bringing fresh linen but it was a little gross that we even had to address it. Overall the hotel is good choice will a great view.

Could see pyramids clearly

Good place for the price Located close to the price

Staff were super helpful and accommodating. Food was very good as well.

Right next door to the Pyramids!!

Wow! Where do I begin? Just left this gorgeous boutique hotel in the heart of Giza and I still can’t believe I woke up to the view of the pyramids every morning! Staff were very helpful and one person, in particular, went above-and-beyond to provide quality customer service. Though all of the staff were helpful and friendly, Ferris made sure my friend and I were taken care of. If you’re looking for a place that provides you with the comfort of home away from home, this is the place. The only problem, which was very small, was that the WiFi was pretty slow. It’s ok though because the staff and the unique area surrounding the hotel kept us pretty entertained. I can’t wait to return! I’m so happy we ditched the fancy hotels in Cairo and decided to stay at Marvel Stone! Special thanks to Ferris and the Marvel Stone staff!

They work really damn hard to keep up the hotel, they are small for staff and area, but their service makes up for it and is so damn good

This is right next to the pyramids. I opened my window and you have the best view you could imagine. The supervisor was very helpful, knowledgeable and accommodating! Nice breakfast in the morning by super friendly staff before I set out for my daily adventure. I would definitely come back. Again thanks to the supervisor he made my trip top notch

Location, location, location! With the Giza pyramids in its backyard, the views are memorable for a lifetime. The staff is friendly, supportive and knowledgeable about the area.

The view of the pyramids from the roof top sitting area is awesome. At night, you can see the light show for free from there.

The outstanding features of the property are the staff, the location and their rooftop deck which directly overlooks the pyramids and sphinx. The hotel itself and the rooms are fine and no worry - clean, safe and functional and waking up and looking directly onto the pyramids isn't a bad way to start one's day (note: if a name brand hotel with associated amenities is critical then you may want to stay at the brand you prefer). For me, I was in Giza to visit the pyramids, Saqqara and other historically significant locations in Giza, and therefore the Marvel Stone was an excellent choice because as we discovered, you want to be close to what interests you in Giza/Cairo as the traffic can be brutal. What really made our stay though was the hotel staff (with a special call out to Ahmed Fares who took great care to make sure we were taken care of during our visit). Every evening we would hang out on the rooftop deck, watch the Sphinx light and sound show, and enjoy the evening looking directly onto the illuminated pyramids. There isn't a lot of "nightlife" in Giza so having their deck at your disposal including pool table was huge, and the staff went out of their way to take care of us (Ahmed even arranged and then picked up dinner from local restaurants for us - which was good cause otherwise I'd still be wandering the streets of Giza trying to find my way back).

Property not properly maintained. Breakfast starts late at 8:00am. Roof deck as advertised was under construction which was not advised prior to booking.

Hotel is in great location however had been overbooked (by about 20 rooms in accordance with reception). Hotel did not notify us that our room had already been booked until after we had arrived, paid and asked for the room keys (1.30am). We were moved to another hotel despite booking well in advance and called through to reconfirm our arrival details also in advance. please call in advance to ensure you are getting the room in the hotel you have booked. the 'sister/extension' hotel was amazing and super accommodating however a cheaper hotel than the Marvel Stone and a bit further back from the pyramids. Marvel stone were apologetic however should have notified us at the time of the original booking or at any time leading up to the stay that no room in the hotel was available and given us the opportunity to agree to the hotel change or look for another.

Service from all staff was excellent. Really helpful

Absolutely the best location in Giza. We watched the sunset over the pyramids each night and had the best view for the light and sound show. The staff were absolutely amazing!

Good location & Services .

Nice hotel with the pyramid view and able to see the sand & light show from the hotel .. feel safe as we are in the protected area and the breakfast was yummy. We even have a special arrangements for take away breakfast as we need to leave early for our day trip.

Overall, the stay at Marvel stone hotel is considerably good. The rooftop provides a good view of the Sphinx & Giza pyramids from afar. The staffs are very helpful, especially Ahmad who has helped us tremendously from getting back our delayed luggage, to arranging transportation to send us to airport. Very reliable & genuine person that we couldn’t help but to mention his name here. Thank you Ahmad for your great service. Just a little recommendation for improvement. 1) The bedsheet & blanket are stained. 2) mineral water should be provided on a daily basis. The rest are all fine :)

Caution when booking!

CAUTION when booking! One reviewer said he/she never got to stay at the hotel because something was wrong with the plumbing. We also did not get to stay at hotel because the hotel said it was forced to close an entire floor. We arrived at 9 pm at night, and had no other choice but to stay at the hotel they took us to, which was POOR quality compared to the Marvel photos. Another person arriving at the same time we did was also taken to the alternate hotel. I would have tried to make a reservation at an alternate, nicer hotel, but I was unable to get internet access. It was late at night and I was exhausted from traveling. Two days later, we were up at 5 am for a tour and noticed a large group of individuals checking into our hotel because Marvel could not accommodate them. If you book here, be prepared with a backup choice of where you would like to stay in the event they are unable to accommodate you.

I loved this hotel! The staff were all so kind and helpful, they would go out and get us food or drinks if we asked and they would deliver them back to the hotel for us! We also arranged a pyramids tour and the museum tour through the hotel and we loved both of those tours, if you do arrange tours through the hotel be sure to ask for Ibrahim as your tour guide because he was amazing! Very nice and knowledgeable we spent 2 days with him and had the best time! The rooms were clean and updated I would recommend to spend the extra money to have the pyramids view from your room cause it was incredible to wake up to that view every morning. The breakfast was very good in the mornings, and the view of the pyramids from the hotels rooftop was incredible! I will definitely stay here again next time we come to Egypt

Great staff , helpful and attentive. Great location with Amazing window view .

nice little clean hotel very near to pyramids

the hotel is little building in very old area front of pyramids it is new and close to crowd and restaurants. it is maybe good stay for limited budget and just one or two days stay to visit pyramids and leave to another nicer area. the staff are very gentle and polite. they may need to work more on putting newer sheets and better beds

Winter holiday in Giza

Ideal location to Giza pyramids and sphinx. Awesome views from rooftop breakfast area. Room and beds reasonably comfortable and staff helpful. However the immediate area outside hotel smelly due to horse stables. Areas ok out and beyond. Room and bathroom floors not clean with dust, hair balls and puddle despite request to clean.

Everything was great and the staff was very friendly

Wonderful location to the pyramid, view is incredible!!!!! Room and rooftop views can’t get better. You can see the light show at night also!

The most amazing views of the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx. Very new, clean, modern rooms with a great rooftop terrace overlooking the most amazing view of the Giza Pyramids/Sphinx - all whilst enjoying a lovely breakfast or a coffee, or anytime meal. Best part is the Light and Sound Show can be seen and heard for free every night from above - fabulous. Central to local eateries - Pizza Hut/KFC for us Westerners and lots of Egyptian places to try also. Hotel is down an alleyway which does smell of horse/camel as the animals are boarded in a square around from hotel but no problems part of the culture and charm. When we arrived after a 30 hour flight, we were disappointed that our pyramid view room wasn't available that night and would only be available the following night, they did offer us a larger room or the choice to move to another hotel with pyramid view for one night, we were too tired so settled for the larger room with no views at a discounted rate.

Great view of the pyramids. Nice complimentary breakfast every morning. The staff is friendly and helpful. No maid service and the floors in the room weren't clean.

Excellent value for money

Exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. Walking distance to the pyramids and Sphinx. ATM, KFC and Pizza Hut nearby. Do not be put off by the local area, this is basically living with the locals. The best thing about staying in this hotel is the awesome view of the pyramids and the Sphinx from the rooftop. An added bonus is you can watch and listen to the daily Light and Sound event whilst enjoying your meal or drink without the hassle of queueing or paying for it. I will stay here again, no second thoughts.

Nice hotel and great staff. Very good location with great views of the Giza pyramids.

Great place to stay!

The people great view great service great!

We like a phenomenal view from the roof top. Manager did everything possible to make our stay very comfortable. We didn't like the streets right outside the hotel.

Hotel In a Slum

To access this hotel you have to drive or walk through an unpaved donkey/horse stable in a genuine slum. This is an extremely dangerous area and would advise everyone against staying in this area as there is high likelihood of being robbed or worse. The hotel itself has a good view from the roof and room but when you open the window, directly below you is a sheep and duck stable filled with excrement. We had to flee the hotel for fear of our safety within the first day. Go stay in a 4-5 Star hotel in Cairo central for your own safety.

Amazing view of pyramids

Amazing view of pyramids from the hotel, staff friendly and very accommodating.

Great hotel with pyramid views

The hotel was great and the staff was very helpful. Only issue was the smell.

Great hotel close to the pyramids. 5 minute walk to the Sphinx. Very modern. Booked one room for four people, got instead two rooms. You can see pyramids out of the window. Rooftop has great view of the pyramids and do not need to buy tickets for nightly music show. You can watch in on the rooftop for free.

We loved the staff at this property who absolutely made our stay exceptional. They definitely went above and beyond in so many ways and on so many occasions. The hotel's help with planning our excursions while in Giza was much appreciated, as well as very easy and done in a non-pressure environment. There are no words to describe the amazing view that this hotel offers, so I won't even try. You will just have to make reservations to witness it yourself. Cheers!

Great Location, best view of the Pyramids!

The hotel hands down offers the best view of the Pyramids. It is located just 200m away from the entrance. The hotel is also close enough for you to catch the sound and light show for free. Towering across the other buildings, the hotel also offers stunning views from its rooftop bar / restaurant. Rooms were decently clean, albeit slightly sandy but that's probably the same in most of Giza's hotel. Staff were friendly and are helpful should you require any assistance with touters / taxi drivers.

You stay at this hotel for the views, and nothing can compare to rolling out of bed, pulling the curtains and eating the sunrise on the pyramids, then wander up to the top bar to have the basic breakfast just in awe of the pyramids. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Like ALL of Egypt, maintainence is not a priority, the shower head was broken, the toilet leaked all day and all night (so sound of running water) the phone did not work. None of these things matter to me, I’m a very simple traveller and I was here to see the pyramids, not stay in a 5 stay amaericanised hotel. Will stay here again in a heartbeat

The hotel that gives you the view of 5000 years.

The Marvel Stone Hotel is a remarkable little hotel situated in the heart of Giza. The view of the Pyramids & Sphinx are second to none. So good is the view that you can watch the light show from the balcony without having to venture out. Sunsets are spectacular and I made a point of sitting out every night I was at the hotel to watch the sun go down. The air conditioned rooms are clean and spacious and have a fridge but there are some niggly little things that stop the hotel getting 10/10. For me it was the shower head that wouldn't stay in place and the lack of variety on the breakfast menu. The staff, particularly Khalifa, were fantastic. Always happy to help in any way possible. They collected & dropped me off at the airport, arranged a car c/w driver and an Egyptologist & all reasonably priced. I would advise everyone who needs to get about to get a car with a driver, as one word sums up the standard of driving..MAD! Within walking distance of the Marvel Stone are plenty of restaurants, takeaways (KFC & Pizza Hut) & convenience stores. There are also plenty of tourist shops & vendors who have one thing in mind, to part you from your cash. They are relentless & can be aggressive and will have every excuse under the 41 Degree Celsius heat to get you in the shop, whether it be a freebie, a drink or his grandad knew Churchill. Getting back to the Marvel Stone hotel was always a welcome relief from the hustle & bustle, a place to relax & contemplate your day.

A perfect view of the pyramids...

It was so amazing to have a view of all 3 of the biggest pyramids from my hotel room. At night I could just open the window and listen to the light and sound show. Hotel was wonderfully clean with big rooms and excellent service. Upstairs was a beautiful patio with glass railings for a full panoramic view of pyramids. Outside were some wonderful perfume and papyrus shops.

The scenery from my hotel room was worth every penny I paid for. The site made my day everyday and night. The neighborhood is not the cleanest, but safe enough to walk around and enjoy the people and the small stores. If you are staying in Giza to see the Pyramids I would recommend to stay at this hotel. However, the hotel is far from the rest of the sightseeing landmarks. Otherwise, it was pretty spectacular and amazing!!!

The location can not be beaten. This place seemed like it had just been re furred, everything looks new and clean. Big TV and fridge in the roofs, air con is great. Its worth staying here one night just to see the sound and light show. They are meant to charge $25 per person, or you can watch for free from the hotel roof. Only thing, they should do more in the bar on the roof. There are no menus or anything, not sure what they do there apart from the free breakfast? Its less then a minute work to the pyramid ticket office.

Incredible view

Amazing view of the pyramids and Sphinx from the roof terrace. Staff friendly and helpful. Room not very clean and shower head not attached to the wall. Local area felt unsafe for us to walk around in so we stayed on the roof terrace most of the time.

Very nice place right in front of the Pyramids! We had an amazing time there and the staff was so nice and accommodating! The Hotel Manager, Osama, was very nice and treated us as if we were family! AT night you can watch the Pyramid show from the roof top or from your room if you are facing the pyramids. Definitely recommend this place!

Birthday Trip

I went to Egypt to celebrate my birthday, and I must say this trip was the best birthday I ever had. On arrival at the Cairo airport, the hotel sent a driver to pick up my guest and me. After riding for about 30 minutes to Giza, then I was greeted by the staff, which they had a little surprise waiting for me. After checking into our room, we went to the rooftop and wow, a surprise birthday cake waiting for me, not to mention the beautiful view of the pyramids. Next, we didn't get a chance book tours in advance, so we decided to ask the hotel would they assist. I must say the hotel manager went over and beyond to make sure I was able to see everything in Egypt and believe me it was well worth it and at a reasonable price compared to the other tour companies. I couldn't believe I was able to visit Giza, Luxor, old Cairo, Aswan, and Alexandria all in one week. The overall stay was fantastic, the staff was pleasant and accommodating to our needs. The rooms were clean, Egyptian breakfast served every morning and what more could I ask for. The next time I come back to Egypt, I will be staying here.

Good view, bad hotel

The dirtiest hotel I've ever met. They do not respect the reservations, we take rooms with pyramids view and they assigned us interior rooms. From the terrace you can see the pyramids.

Average hotel, good view

Stayed here for 3 nights in March 2018, travelling as a couple and booked a double room with a view of the Pyramids, but was given an ordinary room with 2 single beds. When I complained about being given a room different to the one I booked, was informed that they were no other rooms available and they had overbooked. They merely moved the 2 single beds together which was not ideal as they could still not be joined fully. The 2nd day, we were transferred to a room with a view, but again were given 2 single beds. I was again told that they were overbooked and had no double bedrooms available. Breakfast is ok, but not filling. There is no buffet and you are given scrambled eggs, Egyptian fava beans and a choice of either juice, coffee or tea. Since we had moved rooms on the 2nd day, when we returned on the evening of the 3rd day was the first time we could rate the housekeeping. However, there wasn't any. On inquiry, I was told this needs to be requested by guests as they do not enter your room to clean otherwise. We did not leave a DND or no housekeeping note, so this was unusual. The view overlooking the Pyramids is great, but the immediate buildings in front of the hotel are shabby and you can see rubble, laundry and dirt of the buildings directly in front of this hotel which detracts from the view. The rooms itself were fairly modern and comfortable, however, the service and dining at this hotel can be improved. For the price, it was ok but I would not return

Stay elesewhere

Do NOT BOOK this hotel! It looks so pretty and modern but we never stayed there. Something was wrong with plumbing so they had stay at another hotel (Panorama Pyramid Inn - nice, clean, awesome view ). The new hotel was very nice and accommodating however one of the rooms was not Pyramid view. They did not have room for us the following day but did not tell us in the AM so we had to move again. The Marvel Stone was still not fix so we found something on our own (Panorama Pyramids Inn - clean, friendly, great view!). It was super annoying so stay somewhere else. This is my first negative review;(

Our room had to be cleaned when we arrived at midnight

Location location location

Best location in terms of location to pyramids. Ask hotel to organise tour with Ramadaan, the local tour operator.

Great view of the pyramids

Great boutique hotel close to pyramids. There are fast food outlets nearby as well which is great. The staff are really helpful and nice. The Giza area has a lot of horses and camels nearby so be prepared for the smells associated with that in the area around the hotel. All in all good value.

Great view, great value, great staff

This is a great recently built hotel with a contemporary feel. The pyramids view is as good as it gets from the rooftop or one of the pyramid view rooms. Room prices are very reasonable and the staff is very friendly and helpful. Bella at the front desk was great in booking our train tickets and tour to Aswan/Luxor. The staff also helped us get beer delivered to the hotel which would otherwise be more difficult to find in the area. There are some good restaurants very close by including a KFC/Pizza Hut that's open until 3 am. Overall I highly recommend this hotel and would stay here again on my next trip to Giza.

Best view in Cairo?

We stayed for one night in January. The hotel was very clean and the staff are extremely helpful and friendly. The breakfast was simple but good: bread, jam, cheese and an omlette with orange juice and warm drink of choice. Located in Giza, the rooftop of the hotel is stunning. The view is worth the room fee alone!

Best

Amazing hotel with very lovely people, best location as well

Great excellent amazing Hotel ... staff, location

Words can’t explain how much I am happy with my stay in Egypt in this hotel. The staff were amazing and the service is remarkable. I spent the new year eve 2018 and it was unforgettable night with my wife in front of the pyramids and sphinx with amazing view and party.. I recommend this hotel 100%

Fantastic view! Fantastic price! Fantastic stay!

I’ll stay here again, and I’m recommending the hotel to friends. The reception and other hotel staff are very kind and helpful, serving us tea while we checked in and helping us order food to our room. We opted for a pyramid view room and got to wake up to a view of the Sphinx and Pyramids— very cool! It was a very enjoyable stay!

No service's, no clean towel. I asked for one and get used towel. Breakfast is not good

The best hotel in Cairo

Stayed here for 6 nights and am pleased to say I made a great choice! The staff are friendly and helpful to the highest degree. The hotel is clean and well looked after with the absolute best view of the Giza pyramids and Sphinx and the surrounding areas of Cairo. It’s a truly amazing place to stay if you want to explore the Giza necropolis and Cairo as well as having the option to hire a driver from this central location to explore the outer regions of Cairo such as saqqara, Memphis etc. I travel a lot and have stayed in hundreds of hotels.. I rarely leave reviews but on this occasion I had to! I can not be more happy with this hotel and I will be staying there again next year! Absolutely brilliant! Thank you to all the staff and the owner is a diamond too. Marvel Stone!!

Very nice and friendly stuff

Hotel is in progress but they are doing a great job

癒しのホテルです。

最初入口が分かりづらかったけど、ホテルはとても心地よく、安心して宿泊出来ました。 ピラミッドを見ながらの朝ご飯は最高なひとときでした。 ホテルのスタッフのみんなも、優しく迎え入れてくれました。 また伺いたいと思います。

Habla estado allí hace un año y fue mejor que ahora. El desayuno está bien pero era mejor, nos quedamos sin electricidad en la habitación el último día.

한국분들 여기가세요!!! 입구쪽에 마구간이 있긴하지만 지저븐한 골목 사이에 세련되고 깔끔한 호텔 하나가 짠 하고 나타납니다 피라미드뷰 미쳤구요 가격도 낫벧 근데 레스토랑은 별로ㅎㅎ

Muy bien

Pyramids

Nice view on the sky restaurant, very helpful stuff,😀

I reserved this hotel with my family, it was quite dificult to find because it is in an alley, they were very kind since we arrived, and they talk in english very well. We arrived at 8 and the check in was at 12 but they allowed us to stay in the lobby and rooftop to see the view of the pyramids, the food was good for the price, the place is very quiet.

El hotel no tenía Aire Acondicionado adecuado, nos cambiaron dos veces de habitación y el aire no enfriaba, además nunca tuvimos acceso al Wifi. El desayuno muy pobre. No recomiendo para estancias largas, un día basta para visitar las pirámides y luego salir huyendo de ahí. Nos cambiamos de hotel y nos cobraron el Shuttle del aeropuerto que nos había ofrecido gratis al hospedarnos con ellos, como si hubiéramos tenido la culpa de tener que cambiarnos por sus instalaciones poco apropiadas.

Otel sokağı kötü, piramit manzarası iyi

Otelin manzarası çok güzel. Çalışanlar saygılı ve odalar iyi. Fakat Otelin önündeki sokağında bir hayvan ahırı var. Piramitlere giden atlar ve develer akşam olunca otelin bulunduğu sokağa bağlanıyor ve otele girip çıkarken kötü kokuya ve kirli yola maruz kalıyorsunuz. Eğer manzaranız piramit manzaralı odaysa bunun için değebilir. Kahvalı çok kötü. Bozulmaya yüz tutmuş sebzeler ve çok az çeşitle bir tabak indiriliyor. Otele erken girmek için extra ücret talep edildi. Müşteri memnuniyetimizi düşürdü bu durum.
