The worst part of the experience was the noise at night. Very difficult to get a good night's sleep. The numerous staff/family operating the hotel are constantly moving and talking, cleaning, climbing and descending the internal stairs. 1 am or 4 am, it doesn't matter, shouting on the phone is considered normal... The ”call to prayer” sounds at 5 am are actually familiar, nice and soothing to me (from hearing them for years in Asia). The loud street noises (motorcycles, boat engines, shouting and music) I can understand and accept. But the stair and courtyard noises and loud talking were completely avoidable, especially since they were not made by tourists (no keys turning, door slamming or trolley dragging). The problem is worse in the small bedrooms with the ”mirror” windows that face the internal stairs. Double the noise (we had room 555). Of course, I clearly and politely mentioned the problem to management after the first bad night. I cannot recommend the terrace restaurant except for breakfast. The view is quite good, the food was decent, but you can get a better, more authentic (and cheaper) experience in the restaurants on the East bank. Other than this, cleanliness was average and the facilities were satisfactory. The Nile balcony view is nice. Also the top terrace view, sunset, sunrise or hot air ballon view was impressive. The staff does seem to try to be accommoding during the day. I can't speak for the tours they offer, we eventually declined them and booked separate temple tours online, but I did not get the sense we were getting any good deals, actuality quite the opposite... We found good local shops in the area (especially the local falafel and sweets shops) and really enjoyed the experiences and products they offered. Overall, as seasoned, curious and open travelers, I wish we could, but we cannot really recommend Spring hotel, unfortunately. Not even if it was less than half the price... Spent 3 nights here in one apartment booked on airbnb (4 people, 2 couples) in December 2023. By the way, at this time you could rent 2 apartments for 2 persons each, at exactly the same price. P.S. I am writing this at 5 am because I cannot sleep, on my last night at the hotel, as someone takes a loud phone call outside...
