Great Pyramid Inn

Pros: We booked two different rooms for two nights. One was the best room in the hotel with an amazing pyramid view. The room was pretty clean and complimentary breakfast was pretty good. I believe this hotel may be the best option in Giza unless you stay at the Marriott Mena. Cons: There was a really bad smell in the bathroom that took away from the enjoyment. The staff sprayed and cleaned and brought incense which helped some. One of the overnight staff when we arrived wasn’t very honest about the amount of cats that hang around the hotel. We are animal lovers but my fiancée is HIGHLY allergic to cats to where it can be fatal. We stressed that and he just told us no cats but found three cats on our balcony. Overall other staff were really nice and tried to rectify it as best as they could. Make sure you book tours with certified websites before you arrive. They tend to overcharge which is typical for hotels but the tour experience is completely different. We didn’t get our moneys worth and felt like we were constantly taken to shops to buy stuff rather than touring sites we paid for which put a bad taste in our mouth first day in Egypt but got better as we went on other tours we booked on reputable websites. Stay away from the tours and you will have a good experience.

The staff and accommodations are excellent

The stay was most enjoyable The staff was excellent, friendly and accommodating. The hotel is conveniently located near the entrance to the Giza Pyramids and Sphinx. I highly recommend staying here.

Outside this nice boutique hotel were piles of trash and litter. This somewhat took away from the great pyramid views. Taxi drivers arguing at 6:00 AM immediately outside was a disturbance, but staff were able to get the problem resolved for at least two night.

I confirmed an airport pickup 24 hours in advance, but no one showed up. After a 24-hour flight, I had to arrange my own transport when they told me they were running 40 minutes late. At the hotel, there was no real apology, and although I was told the manager would speak with me to make it right, no one ever followed up. The room was basic, smelled of sewer gas, and was noisy day and night. The only highlight was the restaurant—great buffet, excellent service, and lovely rooftop staff. Unfortunately, I wouldn’t stay here again.

The hotel was clean and staff was friendly. The Pyramids view from the room was fantastic and the rooftop restaurant is definitely a must go!

Highly recommend! Clean smells nice. Close to the pyramids! Look for Mahmoud Alfatehi as your tour guide you will be very pleased. Speaks English, knows history, patient, friendly. As for him after you book.

It was my time travelling to Egypt and I have to say Great Pyramid hotel is amazing. The hotel was clean and accessible, the staff was super nice and caring. The area is a little noisy but it’s right infront of a major tourist attraction which is expected but the noise wasn’t bad. We were able to do tours and get around Cairo and Giza with Alibaba who was amazing. So if you stay at Great pyramid hotel ask for Alibaba best tour guide and super patient. He waited until my friends and I took pictures was very Knowledgable and advised on safety and the best spots. He also took us around to various places and the cost was not expensive at all compared to other tours we took a look into. Overall I loved Cairo and Giza cause we were surrounded by good people throughout our stay.

Aladdin and staff are amazing ! I am happy to have seen them again. The property is well maintained. The beds are clean and comfy. I had an awesome stay. I would return.

IF YOU LIKE TO SLEEP DO NOT STAY THERE. I booked a 10 night stay, I fell in love with the pictures on Expedia. I was moved from the 1st floor, to the 5th floor and then the 3rd floor after complaning that I wasn't able to sleep. Always the same issue, noise noise noise. I didn't sleep for 5 nights. I had to book an AirBNB 30 minutes away and that hotel in order to sleep. They then refused to refund me the extra 5 nights that I had booked. Only stay there for 2 nights max, it's unbearable The views are amazing and you'll be 2 minutes away from the pyramids. Even if I returned to egypt I would book a hotel 30 minutes away ALWAYS BOOK AN UBER WHEREVER YOU GO SO THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO NEGOTIATE AND HAVE A HEADACHE EVERYTIME YOU WANT TO MOVE. EVERYONE WILL TRY TO SCAM YOU, EVEN THE HOTEL TAXI DRIVERS.

Great

Rooftop restaurant has a beautiful view of the pyramids. Excellent service and staff.

Staff was excellent and very helpful. Fixed any issues right away. They took care of us like family. Food was excellent. Location unbeatable! Right in front of the pyramids. What more can one ask for. Breakfast in front of the pyramids. Watch sunset from the rooftop restaurant. Excellent hotel. Would definitely stay there again.

Very clean and the staff was amazing

The Property itself is very well kept and updated rooms. The rooftop restaurant had the perfect views to the pyramids and sphinx especially at night you can get beautiful pictures. A plus the food and drinks were good.

Property itself and hotel staff are incredible. Rooms are perfect and everbody is very nice and accomadating. Its when you step outside it becomes a problem everbody and i mean everbody will try and hussle you so just stay sharp. If i had one criticism about the hotel then maybe get some better sound proofing for the pyramid view rooms other than that i have no complaints. Would stay here again no problems.

This hotel is excellent. Very clean spacious rooms, nice interior design, great restaurant and perfect view of the pyramids. Staff was friendly for the most part. You can walk to the pyramids. Outside the hotel there are locals trying sell you stuff and taxis drivers trying to get business which can get annoying. Good security guard who can come out to fend them off and make sure you are okay.

The property was close to GIZA pyramids which was great.However the property was surrounded by aggressive locals pushing to sell stuff and begging

Great stay

Stayed in two different rooms. One was gorgeous with a beautiful view of the pyramids. The other youget what you pay for ha ha but was OK because of the breakfast convenience and beautiful views in the dining area.
