Al Madiafa

Good place to stay

The picture on Hotels.com of the hotel actually shows the Old Egyptian Museum which is around the corner, so we were very surprised when our Uber dropped us off in front of a nondescript building. But the staff was incredibly friendly and the room was clean and comfortable. We spent our time exploring Cairo and its amazing sites and monuments so didn’t need a fancy hotel. The location was outstanding and for the price we can’t complain. The balcony was spectacular!

This is a beautiful facility on the top floors of a building. The staff were helpful with every little question. Would recommend for its central location in Cairo.

The pictures on the hotel is not for the hotel, I didn't stay it was not worth it .... The hotel was in the third floor of an old building. The area was very crowded and very dirty, so I never left a bad feedback ever, but this one I have to...be careful, be careful, be careful.

Staff is kind, room is ok, bed comfortable, location is ok. Only problem the hotel is under renovation and too much dust in the elevator area.

Bathroom was smelling bad even not in use for over 12 hours.

Good

Bad experience. Inappropriate comments from staff member and unprofessional late night phone calls and room visits past 11pm. Bathroom smelled like poop coming from upstairs. No drinking water available. Sheets have pilling on them. Elevators were not working at had to climb 6-7 flights of stairs. Another time when it was “working,” I got stuck in it for 5 minutes without air. Would not recommend.

No electricity. No water (not just hot water). Non-functional elevator - broken most of the day and only goes up to 8th floor; guess who’s carrying that luggage to 9th floor if that’s your room? Construction/debris on entire 1st floor with construction fumes - I asked when it was going to be done and was told by manager it’s all done. I believe the managers havd s different idea of finished compared to everyone else. Constantly knocking on your room to do repairs in your room while you’re trying to take an afternoon nap. No AC in 105F weather - try sleeping when your body is soaked in sweat. Staff speak very limited English. They’ll ask if everything is ok and if you say anything but yes, their English suddenly becomes incoherent. Need I say more?

Cleanness, location

The place was well located in downtown Cairo. The room was spacious and clean and we liked the big terrace. However the whole building was being given a make over and often the lift did not work . The staff were very helpful, especially Shady,

No dining options, terrible room, services are really limited and super expensive. It seems like the hotel is not ready or they’re doing renovations. The images on Expedia do not actually represent the hotel. I would not recommend to anyone.

We stayed at this hotel for 7 nights and it was ok but I would not rate it highly. Good points: Clean room. Great location. Staff ok Bad points: Water in shower going from cold to very scolding hot randomly Downstairs being renovated which creates a lot of noise and dust No hairdryer available as they only had one and it blew up Could not get breakfast one day as it was only available after 8am whereas we ging to leave for an excursion at 7:30am You have to be in the room whilst it gets cleaned which is inconvenient as we were out everyday No USB charge points in the rooms which in this day and age is an absolute must. Only one lift working some days and it was also used by the builders Satellite TV only worked intermittently as the signal was poor WiFi was very poor as well. As a family of four in two separate rooms there was not enough space for our clothes so we lived out of the suitcase basically. We would not stay here again in its current state.

L’hôtel est idéalement situé au cœur du Caire , l’accès est facile , le staff est très serviable. L’ascenseur est pas au top

The lobby was under construction the blankets are dirty and even if you ask for new ones they still give you dirty ones the customer service was good however which was the only good thing

The hotel is clean, rooms are well furnished, and facilities are very good. But if you have more than 3 bags, it is better to choose the twin bedroom instead of the double bedroom as it is more spacious.The staff were helpful, special thanks to Ms. Rabab who was very friendly.

Staff was very nice

Great place to stay at. The receptionists were very helpful. Clean and tidy.

reasonable price and good location

The hotel was difficult to find (not on google maps) and when we did get there the ground floor of the building was a raw construction site. The lifts then made you feel as if it was going to break any second and we had to take the stairs (8 flights) on two separate occasions. The rooms themselves were fine but the AC was a bit weak so it was a bit hot at night.
