A nice hotel with friendly staff. It had everything I needed, nice cotton sheets, and even a bath.

Sarah Jane

The hotel has lots of character and has retained its mid-twentieth century charm. The staff were unfailingly helpful and pleasant. Our room was large, comfortable and air conditioned, and the bathroom had been modernised and was good.

Let me first say that I had no expectations because I was simply in Egypt for the sights and not so much the people or the hospitality. Both Maged and Ahmed, who work the front desk, far exceeded anything I could have imagined. Any question or concern I had was promptly dealt with and answered. I wanted for nothing. For that, both the Lotus Hotel and its staff have my eternal thanks. The rooms are a bit outdated, sure, but that adds to the charm. When I go back to Egypt, which I will, I will definitely be staying at the Lotus. 5/5

Anyone who stays here needs to realise that this us a very old and basic property. For the price you cant go wrong, but dont expect western standards. Its like stepping back in time which ads a charm to it. Overall it was a place to bunk for the night and that's it. So with that, and the overall price, it was perfect for me.

This is a very old hotel. You can see pictures of it back in the day on the walls. Its hard to find and in a very run down building, but its like being in a time warp. The beds were clean and comfortable. It looks dirty because its old, but i wiped at some places and they were clean, just stained over time, like in the bathroom. Check-in was tedious, filling out a paper with your home address and profession, bad exchange rate given and you must pay cash. Charged me $8 to wash a load of laundry and hang it out to dry. Wifi in reception only. This hotel is fine for a night or two passing through, but if you book it gor your whole vacation, you may be unhappy. Its very close to the museum and tahrir square!

Dirtiest toilet I have ever seen in a hotel. Had to clean the toilet before using. Would not use the bathroom here unless I was desperate. Otherwise the hotel seemed okay but the filthy bathroom alone pulled down the grade. The shower was nasty too. ⁷
