"Although I tipped her in my first stay, the receptionist claimed that the room I had booked & confirmed was no longer available and I need to cancel & re-book a bigger room, she also requested that I pay directly at the hotel and not via Expedia (Basically an attempt to grab more money). I cancelled and booked elsewhere. I Will not return"

"This is an unbelievable hotel! Not only affordable price, but very cheap for the cleanliness, services and honesty. The guests are part of a family where every one knows all. Food is clean and in good taste. The rooms are very clean..room, bed,washroom. I wonder why this top class service of a hotel charges so low a price. It is surprising.

"Affordable stay
The price is great and the location couldn’t be better. Still, travellers should note that the hotel is quite basic — the furniture is old, Wi-Fi is also inconsistent. If you value price and location more than comfort, this might work for you."

Beautiful property near downtown Cairo (15/20 min walk). The hostel is just off a Main Street with shops for snacks and pharmacies etc.
The staff are wonderful and help to create such a relaxing atmosphere. Whoever decorated the rooms did so perfectly.
Everything you need is at the property and you can get a delicious home cooked meal for dinner if you don’t fancy going out. There are lots of spots in the hostel to relax and unwind after a long day. Would definitely stay here again.

This hotel offers a very balanced experience. The location is excellent, close to transportation and major points of interest. The staff were polite and attentive, and the organized tours added great value to our stay. Cleanliness and security were clearly a top priority.

The hostel opened a few years ago, so it was very clean, and the staff were all very nice and helpful, so we had a wonderful time there. Our children loved the common space and spent a lot of time there, feeling at home. Although my flight back home was at night, the staff helped us even after we checked out. Highly recommended for your stay in Cairo!

A traditional hotel, with fantastic views of the pyramids, sphinx and a free view of the evening light show on the pyramids. All this from the roof terrace and some of the rooms

This was my second time at Dahab hostel and I would go back again :)
The location is perfect, the people there are super nice and the rooms are clean and have everything you need. The terrace is also amazing to relax within the hectic city

The landlord is exceptionally kind, generous, and friendly, offering outstanding hospitality. The mother was just as warm and welcoming. They are truly some of the best people I have ever met—easily deserving more than five stars. Very close to the Pyramids with nice rooftop view as well.
