Hotels Near Al Amir Perfume Palace in Nazlet El-Semman

The hotel was okay, and Mohamed was accommodating. We booked a room with a pyramid view; well, you can see the pyramids if you hang through the window and look backwards, but it is not an actual room view. We were told we could only pay with euros or dollars but not Egyptian dollars, or via bank transfer (with an extra fee (!) on top). There was no prior knowledge about paying extra for not being able to exchange money at the airport or reception despite the fact it is advertised the hotel offers money exchange. Do not take me wrong; the beds are comfy, breakfast is tasty, and you can see the pyramids from the roof while having a brekkie. The breakfast staff was helpful, too. Airport shuttle was top and super quick. As I said, there must have been a language barrier, which is, hey, okay, I am not a native speaker either. But there is no shame in advertising less (and then offering more) and asking questions if you are not sure what the question was. We all work in hospitality, in hotels in fact, and trust me, clear communication can save any situation. It would be nice changing what is actually provided, no spa, swimming pool, money exchange or laundry service. Offering clothes washing but not drying can be tricky when you have an early flight to catch on the following day early Morning. (Especially when promised via text and verbally the day before and day the same day too several times everything is washed and dried!) Update your amenities and services your offer and you will be great guys. The place has potential! But, sadly, for what we paid and what we got did not match at all.

You can't ask for a better location or a more accommodating team than at this bed and breakfast. A great view of the Pyramids (across the street). The breakfast was ok, but the view from the terrace is what it's all about. The room was fine. Overall a good value, but if you're looking for upscale amenities, keep looking. If you're looking for good location at great price and kind staff, this is the place.

If you wanna wake up with a fantastic pyramid view then this is the right place, but don't expect much from the hotel, The guys at the reception will try to sell you overpriced tours to the pyramids that are absolutely not necessary, guides can't entry the pyramids, so you will have a person only rushing you around, just buy the 2 tickets in front of the hotel and you will be perfectly fine, uber works perfectly in Cairo.

A notre arrivee, la réservation prévue d'une chambre avec balcon n'a pu être satisfaite. (Les photos sur Booking montrent deux types de chambres sans montrer un balcon malgré un descriptif qui le précise clairement ! ) Néanmoins, notre premier étape en Égypte fut agréable ! Cet hôtel possède des atouts certains : une décoration soignée, sa propreté et bien sûr, sa situation. L'équipe de l'hôtel est jeune, dynamique, réactive et aimable. Mention spéciale pour la gentillesse d'Ola à la réception, celle d'Hassan, et de son collègue, car leur petit déjeuner égyptien est ”royal”, sans oublier celle d'Ali de l'accueil. Les chambres se répartissent sur trois étages (sans ascenseur) avec la terrasse au 4eme qui accueille les petits déjeuners et un restaurant, bon. L'équipement de la chambre est satisfaisant ( tv, réfrigérateur, bouilloire avec eau et sachets divers en accès libre) mais les fenêtres ne ferment pas hermétiquement ! La salle de bains comprend toilettes, douche, lavabo et produits divers mais la plomberie serait à améliorer (fuite au pied du lavabo et robinet branlant) . La connexion WiFi est dans l'ensemble satisfaisante. Bref, un endroit dans ce lieu extrêmement touristique à recommander mais certains points à améliorer pour devenir un vrai 3 étoiles.

Villa Khufu can be found after navigating your way through a labyrinth of extremely bumpy and unkempt streets if driving but once you reach your destination, I immediately forgot about this as you are greeted by the most magnificent and magical sights depending on which way you approach Villa Khufu. You are then greeted by the friendly and attentive staff. Our first stay in November 2023 which was in a clean and compact room with very comfortable beds. Our second stay in January 2024 was in a slightly larger room with a balcony which was clean and again very comfortable beds. We arrived at night and was able to see the Pyramid lit up from our balcony which was magical. The roof terrace is amazing and you feel as though you can almost touch the Pyramid. Personally I find Villa Khufu very tranquil and peaceful, away from the hustle and bustle of the main roads and there is something very magical about Villa Khufu and its surroundings!

Abbiamo soggiornato in questo hotel 6 notti con mezza pensione io, mio marito e mia figlia di 9 anni. Già da subito l'hotel e Tamer, che ci ha accolto (l'unico che parla italiano e inglese), ci hanno fatto sentire a casa. Per quello che può offrire questa città l'hotel è abbastanza sopra la media. Buon cibo, pulizia e confort in generale all'interno dell'hotel. La zona è quello che è, molto povera e sporca, ma com'è d'altronde tutto il resto della città e di queste zone... Ma una volta dentro l'hotel è tutto ok per quanto riguarda pulizia e altri servizi. Wi fi gratuito. Saletta ristorante e una bellissima terrazza vista piramidi dove bere thè, fare colazione o cena. Il personale tutto cordialissimo e sempre disponibile. Organizzano anche gite ovunque sempre con guida e autista, anche se sono un po' più care rispetto a quelle trovate su TripAdvisor. Nel complesso il prezzo dell'hotel invece è stato molto buono considerando anche la mezza pensione. Se dovessi tornare al Cairo ci tornerei sicuramente. Grazie a tutti voi ☺️

I loved staying in the hotel because the staff were so helpful smiling faces I felt like home ,thank you aya life guard in the swimming pool and me Abu alail from house keeping and not forgetting Shayma , I can say the only thing I don’t like was the bath room up dated , every thing else was great specially the good

Very tasteful buffet with great selection of food and everyday rotation. Additionally to common meals like chicken and beef stew there is always specialities from different countries like Mexico for example. Exceptionally friendly and helpful service personnel with a lot of attention for guests‘ needs. Special appreciation to the chefs and servers for their work. Overall, the hotel is in neat state.
