I stayed at this hotel for two nights because I wanted to experience the old atmosphere of Cairo and the scent of Islam.
The valuable location, the building, and the atmosphere of the room were just as I imagined, and I'm glad I chose it.
Furthermore, the staff's service was better than I expected, and everyone was very nice, including Atala, who was security at the entrance, Sabri at the front desk, and Abdallah, who looked after the rooms and other facilities!
The rooftop restaurant has both indoor and outdoor seating, and you can choose where to sit for dinner and breakfast. There are three set meals for breakfast, and the "Country" I had on the second day was a thin baked pie topped with syrup made from honey and bean powder (this is my own analysis, so I'm sorry if it's wrong).
There were two negative opinions. Noise and access by car.
・The building is made of wood, so you can certainly hear the sounds from the next room and the upper floors, the hustle and bustle outside, and the music from the neighbors at dinner time. There are new earplugs by the bedside. Personally, I went there to experience these things and I can sleep without any problems, so it wasn't a problem, but if I have one piece of advice, the 4th floor has a restaurant on the upper floor, so you can hear footsteps and chairs being pulled. If you want to avoid that, I recommend requesting the 2nd or 3rd floor.
-It's true that the area is a traffic control area where cars can't enter, and when I arrived in the evening, there were people and store delivery vehicles, so it was difficult for taxis to enter. I got off the taxi on a major road nearby and walked 6-7 minutes with my hand carry bag, and on the way back, I called an Uber from the main road as well. However, there are few people on the road until early afternoon. When I asked the hotel, they said that if you want to access by car because you have a lot of luggage, etc., you should consult in advance.
