Zamalek x hostel is a wonderful place to stay. It’s a very comfortable space and the workers are friendly. It’s clean and there are many amenities. The highlight of my stay was the location of the hostel. It’s in a fun area of Cairo but you don’t get lost in the hustle and bustle of the big city. There are many markets, shops and places to eat around. All in walking distance. Another small highlight was the bookshelf in the living room. It has many great books, some even in English! If you’re looking for somewhere to stay in Cairo I highly recommend Zamalek x hostel, you won’t be disappointed!

Very cool place, nice view And service was really great, the stuff is helpful

Very noisy, nobody at check in and check out, the photos the description of the place are not according to the place.

good location,price,room,staff.

A little self-service. shared bath room（but big）.no toothbrush and disposable goods.

First of all, Kareem was outstanding; communicated effectively, picked me out of the crowd at the airport during an early hour of the morning, gave me advice of where to eat, insights about the area of Cairo and genuinely cared about my time here. His staff also care about ensuring you have a great stay. This was very valuable, so thank you Kareem & your team. I felt safe and secure at the property. Plenty of space in communal areas & a great view towards the Nile. My room was large in size with air con and a nice view to the city below. A great spot to spend a couple of nights to explore Cairo!!

The hostel is on the 8th floor of a building, converted from an apartment—very young hostel style with a vintage look. I stayed in a room with a dedicated bathroom and Nile view. The view is nice—just like in the photos. The place is super central. As a tourist, you can even walk to some cool restaurants and coffee spots nearby without being disturbed (which is super rare in Cairo). Overall, it was a nice and expected stay.

There was no housekeeping for the room for 4 days. There is a microwave, but no other kitchen items like a kettle or plates in the room. You can take those from the shared kitchen, but I didn’t because of cleaning issues. No bath amenities or slippers. I already knew there wouldn’t be, so that was expected and totally fine for me. Quick note: cleanliness is an issue here—just like in many places in Cairo, even luxury ones. So be ready for that.

The location is amazing, it s very close to Zamalek main attractions. Kareem is very kind and friendly. The beds are very comfortable, and the place is constantly kept clean. There is a nice view from the balcony.

The bathtub is old and the shower door is not closing well. Since the hostel is in front of the main road it is very hectic and noisy during the day & night (just to keep in mind if you are looking for a silent vacation).

The hostel is very nice and well located. We really appreciated that they let us check in early and leave our luggages until late. The bathroom is external but private and very big. We were scared about the noise, but it was totally fine.

The only thing that I didn't like is that in the title it was written double or twins beds but they don't have double bed (of the category we booked).

Excellent budget option on Zamalek. Staff is super friendly and supportive. The bathroom could use an update, a bit outdated, and I had cold showers. On the other hand, the community room is nice and Internet was stable.

Amazing hostel! Host and receptionist super helpfull and nice. Best location, perfect spot to explore Zamalek and well conected to downtown Cairo, you also have plenty of stores and restaurants nearby. Room and facilities so clean and comfortable, I really recommend it!!!

This is a great quiet sween friendly clean comfortable amazing hotel at the perfect location. The employees are the most gentle I ve ever seen in my life truly kind and willing to help you. Eskam in the morning and the girl whose name I cannot remember in the evening at the reception are just superb. I strongly recommend it!

Friendly staff. Great location. Kitchen facilities

Unfortunately, the room I stayed in, is roadside. The great location of the hotel, also means there is a lot of noise from one of the busiest roads in the city.
