Excellent - Sofitel El Gezirah
Just returned from a very pleasant stay at the Sofitel Gezirah Hotel in Cairo. Hotel is very well situated on an 'island' on the River Nile in the centre of the city with fabulous views and has a spectacular lobby area. All the staff are very friendly, courteous and well trained and the rooms extremely comfortable and clean. The situation of the hotel with seating areas and swimming pool looking out immediately over the river makes for an unforgettable experience. The Buddha Bar is very atmospheric and the buffet in the main restaurant has a great choice both for breakfast and evening meal. Definitely one to be recommended!

Egypt trip
This hotel provided a wonderful experience with us being here for the first 3 days of our "Exploring Egypt" tour. The refreshing lemon drink on arrival, welcoming greeting from hotel staff whilst we waited for our room allocation. The friendly greetings at all times when moving around the hotel. Lovely, courteous, friendly staff at both breakfast and dinner. Bonjour was my greeting in the morning coming into breakfast. Food was extremely tasty, with ample choices that would even suit the most fastidious diner. Asking for something like nuts or a banana at breakfast was always dealt with a smile, and even on our return for our last night and next morning, two staff asking at breakfast if I would like a banana, both bringing me one each, and us all laughing. You always know when you have been on a really good tour and have had lovely accommodation, when you become sad on departure morning. We had had a power and water outage in the very early hours of the morning we were to leave after the initial 3 days, and on our return we were all upgraded to suites!! Oh and were they beautiful suites. The housekeeping staff always made me feel very special and nothing was a bother, and we shared a couple of laughs together. The bathroom products were first class. I know on Trip Advisor reference to the party boats going up and down the Nile River during the day and evening were extremely loud with music and singing going on, but that was part of the experience and fun, and they didn't go all night, probably finishing about 11 or midnight. I couldn't speak more highly of this hotel and would recommend it highly.

Great hotel in a good central location
I stayed here for a week and enjoyed my stay. My room was a decent size, clean and well furnished. The view from the window was stunning.The hotel itself has many facilities, and those which I used were all kept in very good condition, and were clean. It did feel first class.The breakfast buffet is one of the best I have experienced at a hotel, with a great choice of food, and friendly service. The service at the waterside bar and floating deck restaurant were a little slow, but the food was good when it arrived.The gym was small, with a limited range of equipment. However the pool, spa, jaquzzi etc were spacious and modern.The hotel is situated in the heart of Cairo, which makes moving around that little bit easier . Always plan ahead for any journey where ever you are based, as the traffic is notoriously bad at times. The airport and the pyramids are both a 25 minute drive away on a good day; but an average journey time to both locations can easily be two hours (i.e. on a bad day it could be even longer).The only downside with the hotel is the noise at night from the numerous party boats that cruise up and down the river Nile, and which blast out their music at high volume which penetrates the double glazing. I wear ear plugs, and with the air conditioning on, I could hardly hear the music and I slept soundly. I would recommend packing ear plugs, especially if you are on the lower floors.

Great Value of Money For Wonderful Service
We were given a great rate by the hotel and for it we had wonderful level of service the breakfast had many options with wonderful taste, the staff is extremely helpful and the guest relations arranged our room as per my request for our anniversary. The room size is good the furniture is comfortable, however I didn't like the pillow and I didn't ask for another as I was staying for one night. The Hotel has many Restaurants we dinned at "The Deck" using the Same Menu as "El Kababgy" with Nice Nile View and great Taste. The Pool is Always Sunny from Dawn till Dusk and has lovely cocktails. Overall it was a nice experience for an hotel in town. P.S: for Foreigners the hotel location is in the middle of Cairo where you can visit all the touristic sites or do your business.
