Reviews of El Tahrir View Hotel 3 stars

location was good

Avoid this hotel at all costs. The only good thing about this place is the location, but everything else was a disaster. • The room I booked was not available, so I was pushed into a tiny room. • The shower was broken, and even after waiting 30 minutes for repairs, there was still no hot water. • The sheets were dirty, the towels smelled awful, and the cleaning was clearly not done properly. • At night, they started construction work inside the hotel — extremely noisy, even though staff promised it would last only “10 seconds.” • The name says “View Hotel,” but there was absolutely no view. Completely misleading. This was one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve ever had. If you value cleanliness, comfort, or honesty, do not stay here.

Healthy breakfast and good size

Overall I like the place.

The staff was very nice and helpful and the location was great !

It was very very dirty. The sheets and towels had stains and hair on it, there were a lot of flies and it smelled cigarette in the whole hotel. The bathroom was very unpractical there was water everywhere and the toilets were not clean. I would not recommend this hotel, not even for one night…

The stay were amazing because of the stuff only, special thank you to John and Maryam who were great and they offer amazing service,

That there is no elevator

The staff, Bishoy and Sara were absolutely fantastic. I arrived at 4am and they let me check in early, served great breakfasts, advised me of great places to eat and see in Cairo and continually asked me if I needed anything and even gave me cold drinks when they saw me coming in out of the heat. Great hosts and I couldn't have asked for better service and the location right on El Tahrir Square was perfect.

The place was a total mess, it looked like a sharing apartment not an hotel. Not recommended.

In the first i wana to thank Mr•Bishoy, Ms. Mariam, and Ms. Hadeer and Ms. sara Are execllent staff who helped us so well and will appreciate them in future. They respinded so quick and attended all our expection The hotel is very clean and i love this hotel maybe one day i will come back agian

Central place; they gave us the breakfast the day we arrived because we were leaving early in the morning.

Location

Run down; noisy

Older building , pictures online made it look better than in real life. Location is great though. There was cat shit in the hallway everyday and the beds were extremely hard. The shower was literally above the toilet and the bathroom didn’t drain the water so everything was wet including the carpet outside the toilet . The staff were very friendly though and tried to accomodate all complaints.

The guys there are very kind and helpful . Abdulrahman , Saad and Fathy thank you a lot. They protect our bags at the check out not to curry the luggage at the last day. Very good position.

Tahrir View Hotel has one of the best locations anywhere in Cairo, located as it is on the Tahrir Square, a stone's throw from the Egyptian Museum, and a short ride from the Khan el- Khalili souk. I stayed there from 6 June till 9th June, 3 nights, in 2025. What will stick in my memory is the wonderful staff in the hotel - Heidi, Saad, Fathy, Sara and Abdelrahman. All of them made our stay very comfortable. They were always very helpful. The location is packed with banks, shops and eateries. For Indian visitors I recommend a walk to the Namaste Indian restaurant in the Rameses Hilton, located on the Nile Corniche, just 800 meters away. And, of course, a walk to the Nile embankment was enchantment overload.

The Tahrir Square view from the hotel is possible only in two rooms out of the 15 they have in the hotel. The rooms are somewhat small, though airconditioned and comfortable. The breakfast is usually a few slices of bread, an egg, and some condiments. Keep expectations realistic and you wont be disappointed.

The room was clean and the breakfast is amazing Special thanks for the morning staff Abdulrahman and haidy and sara they were very helpfull

Clean Room and fair price Thanks for the Staff, Sherif , haidy , fathy and mona

staff friendly, good location

The location was great! The breakfast and hospitality was great!

The room didn’t appear ready… the garbage in the bathroom was half full and the toilet paper roll was almost gone. The sample shampoo and conditioner were used. We needed an additional towel. Although a reasonable price, the supplies could’ve been replenished and the bottom sheet possibly a fitted sheet to stay in place.

I really liked that the hotel staff pays attention to the guests' remarks and improves the hotel according their wishes & suggestions. The staff is very kind, attentive and helpful. The breakfast was simple, but delicious and sufficient. The hotel is located at Tahrir Square in an old apartment building, the open entrance of which is right by the M sign of the metro station. There is a stall selling bags and suitcases. It is also very close to the Old Egyptian Museum and the bus station.
