Homestays in Giza Governorate, Egypt

The room is within walking distance to the ticket office of the Khufu Pyramid. The room is very clean and quiet. It is owned by a local. The owner is very friendly ❤️ and the price is very affordable. It is recommended to stay. After watching the pyramid show at night, the road is very safe.

A great value small hotel! We only booked the most basic room for one night, but every staff member was warm and kind. The front desk was friendly, and as soon as we got out of the car, a young man helped us with our luggage to our room. At breakfast, the chef saw we were about to leave and specially brought us some freshly fried meatballs to try! The room also had bright 4000K lighting, and the toilets all had sealed strips. The air conditioning was brand new and very powerful. Although the overall space was small, it was cozy, clean, and tidy! From the hotel's terrace, you can see the Sphinx and the pyramids, and as soon as you open the hotel door, the ticket office is just 10 steps across the street (no exaggeration at all). Then you need to go to the main road, and a small kiosk further up is the entrance. Across the street from the hotel are KFC and Pizza Hut (the BBQ flavored thin-crust pizza was tasty). If there's anything to note, it's that small hotels near the pyramids generally have poor soundproofing. If you're a light sleeper, you might want to bring earplugs from your flight as a backup. However, my partner and I, who are average sleepers, only heard some noise before falling asleep at 9 PM and weren't woken up in the middle of the night. Also, many hotels in Egypt don't provide toiletries, so you'll need to bring your own portable toothbrush holder, toothbrush, and toothpaste. Compared to similar hotels, this one is highly, highly recommended overall!

Cozy little hidden stay in one of the by lanes of Giza. Followed the maps to help me in, and I was eventually ushered by the super helpful staff inside the lobby. The stay itself was very comfortable and I slept really well despite it being so close to the pyramids and the busiest areas of Giza. Bed and pillow are soft, love the addition of the couch, and the shower is relaxing. I didn’t try the breakfast, as I left early from the hotel most days, however the rooftop view is definitely worth checking out - I even worked one entire afternoon just staring at the great pyramids. It’s an ideal stay for solo backpacking travelers!

It was much quieter in the rich area of Cairo than Tahrir Square. Yesterday, I stayed in Tahrir Square for one night and I couldn’t stand it. Fortunately, I changed it here. It was still a Chinese homestay. The room was too clean. It was convenient to go anywhere. The living room was large. There were free shared jewelry hat drugs. The key is that the private kitchen can order food, and I can't eat any Egyptian food in Cairo these two days.

It's good. You can see the pyramid from the door. But you can't go into this pyramid. You can only look at it from a distance. The room is spacious and clean. Breakfast is provided. No one will come here specially. The transportation is not convenient. If you drive, you can stop by and stay for one night.

The hotel is located right next to the entrance to the Giza plateau, which is its main advantage. We booked a more expensive room with a balcony and a pyramid view. While you can see the pyramids, there's a construction site directly below the windows. This spoils the entire view, and it's quite noisy from the ongoing construction work. The builders didn't even stop in the evenings. There's also a lot of noise transfer from neighbors – constant slamming doors and conversations. The room itself is far from new, and the towels are very worn out. There are no slippers, but toiletries are provided. There's a kettle (which gives off a plastic smell when boiling) and two cups (which looked like they hadn't been washed, with tea stains). A big disappointment was the hotel staff. We had planned to have dinner in the hotel's pyramid-view restaurant in the evening. When checking in, we asked if a reservation was needed and were told it wasn't, just to show up. However, we couldn't get in because the restaurant was fully booked by a large group. One of the hotel staff members kept shouting that everything was reserved and wouldn't let us sit down or even look at the menu. When we asked for five minutes to choose a dish for dinner, he just repeated the same thing and shooed us away. We ended up having dinner in our room, but this situation severely soured our impression of the hotel. I cannot recommend this hotel. If and when a new building is constructed in front of the hotel, it might completely lose any advantages it currently has.

We had a very good stay in the hotel, I would like to thanks Mohamed and Mustafa for their great service, they make us feel extremely comfortable, for every single thing we required they were always ready to help us, maybe something to improve is the internet connection but not big deal, for sure I would come back.

The breakfast is very suitable for Chinese people. The view from the room is great, you can directly see the pyramids and the new museum. The boss is also very enthusiastic.
