Tired and worn around the edges.
Hotel with some apparent deferred maintenance issues.For example, toilet constantly running, wardrobes with body odor, mechanically things loose and jiggly, dirt in the corners. Old fashioned furnishings. Wi-Fi was free, but not very fast, or constantly available.The beds were very comfortable. The rooms are reasonably quiet. Housekeeping was quite satisfactory.Front desk service excellent. My non-smoking floor was quite smoky, which is one thing I really find annoying. Management seemed indifferent about this.The bakery and restaurants and bars are quite nice for the property.Lovely outdoor pool, but I did not see anyone go near it the whole stay.Hotel is quite near the airport, but allow time for the usual traffic jams. This proximity lends quite an international flavor to the collected guests. Front desk staff speak quite adequate English.

International Hotel
After a tour of Egypt we flew back to Cairo and stayed at Sonesta as it is close to the airport. It is a beautiful facility and had friendly staffThe hotel has a cosmopolitan feel to it yet still has Egyptian feel. The foyer is very art nouveau with an interesting sculptor of a grey hound !The hotel room was extremely fresh, clean, and pleasantly quiet. It was also just inside the WiFi area so I could use my Smart phone.The hotel is conveniently located for the airport, but is not recommend for a longer stay in Cairo, as it is quite distant from the city centre. It does seem to be frequented by tour groups either just arriving or departing the next day, like our one !The gym was well equipment, swimming pool was staffed, bars area clean and severed food. However the bar drink prices have local tax added on which are not include on the menu / drink list.Breakfast was the normal affair of fruit, salad, pastries, cook to order omelettes.The staff were pleasant, friendly and helpful.

Good hotel with some quirks
Excellent complimentary hotel transfer service from the airport - including facilitation through immigration - was a very good start to quite a pleasant stay. Was accommodated in a nicely furnished room in the new tower - comfortable bed, tea/coffee-making facilities and huge bathroom. Excellent breakfast buffet (from 0430 to 1030) and generally very friendly staff. Now for the quirks - housekeeping is a bit slapdash (only one refill of shampoo, shower gel etc. during my 5 night stay), there is a lack of electric points in the room (not possible to charge laptop and boil water at the same time) and I could never get the room internet connection to work. There is wifi (of sorts) in the lobby and public areas, but really not of a sufficient speed to get any work done.Location is excellent for the airport and the convention centre - and you feel safely out of the way of any demonstrations.

Frequent Stays at the Sonesta
I go to Cairo relatively frequently for business and have stayed at multiple hotels in the city. Over the past couple of years, I have been staying primarily at the Sonesta. To be honest, it is not the best hotel. However, it works well for me. The staff are wonderful and always friendly (they know me by name) and the location is wonderful for the activities that I do. I plan to continue to stay there, at least for now.Some good things:The new tower is reasonably nice and clean.Beds are clean and comfortable.The complementary buffet breakfast is really good.The hotel gym/spa is very nice. It has a good workout room, a sauna, a steam room, etc.The location is safe (at least safer than downtown hotels).It is relatively close to the airportFree pick up and drop off to the airport (at least for me and my colleagues, but this may be a business perk).Staff are really nice and helpful.Price is reasonable.Some not so good things:Stocking of the rooms is inconsistent. Sometimes there is water and sometimes not. During my recent trip, my colleagues had to ask to have their mini-bar stocked.The carpets in the old part of the hotel are stained and look dirty.Some of the bathroom fixtures are rusty and break easy (for example- toilet handles falling off).Occasional musty smell in some of the rooms.So, this is not the nicest hotel in Cairo, but I like it and it works well for me. You get what you pay for, and for me it is worth the money that I spend.
