Linked to Cairo Airport Terminal 3 by a pedestrian bridge, Le Meridien Cairo Airport offers a heated outdoor pool and a fitness centre. Free Wi-Fi access is available.

For the price that you charge for one room I would like to not hear my neighbours as they enter their room and as they are inside their room. The doors on the room are cheap and slam closed. This makes for an uncomfortable night sleep. At 12 am there were guests just standing by my door chatting and it’s like they were in my room .

Situated next to Citystars shopping mall, this 5-star luxury hotel has large outdoor swimming pool and 10 varied restaurants.

Excellent hotel situated near Cairo International Airport (20min with car). Very clean and extremely nice customer relations staff. What pulls down slightly is that the restaurant on -2 level, serving Egyptian food, does not deliver as promised. We ordered “Meat Lovers” which were supposed to have various specialties. A big plate of meat were placed on the table, we tried to identify what it was, but could only identify, kind of, some kind of leg. What was missing was easier; the lamb chops and Egyptian grilled beef sausages. The waiter could not identify this so we had to call for the manager and he settled the matter. Otherwise breakfast and evening buffet were both amazing. None of us got any stomach issues which was good. Otherwise a good, no, very good hotel.

Just a 25-minute drive from City Centre, Concorde El Salam Hotel Cairo is 6 km from fashionable Heliopolis suburb. It features 8 restaurants, 2 outdoor pools, and private stables.

I had a wonderful stay! The staff were very nice and welcoming. Special thanks to Ismail, who quickly arranged an urgent shuttle to the airport for us—much appreciated! The breakfast was amazing, especially thanks to the talented chef who made delicious pancakes and eggs to order. I was also pleasantly surprised when my room was upgraded to a premium one—it was a lovely gesture and made my stay even better. Overall, I loved the experience and will definitely come back if (or when!) I visit Egypt again.

    I chose Radisson because it's so close to the airport (I arrived late and didn't want to drive on at night). The interior design (lobby with "open" patio, rooms etc.) was very attractive and fully correspond with the 4-5 star rating of the hotel. The selection of dishes for breakfast was also very good (except for the missing orange juice). Upon check out with the quality manager (by chance), she was really interested in learning what they could do to improve in my rating (I said I would give an 8 of 10).

    Very good value for monry. Brand new hotel. Rooms like 5 stars design hotel. Beds very comfortable. View from the pool and restaurant is breathtaking. Food very good and tasty. Lots of fruits for breakfast. Smoothies amazing, burger as well. Staff is so helpful. I left my passport on the airport late at night, they comforted me and called the airport in the morning. Staff is the best from front office to housekeeping and waiters. Keep good job dear people.

    Beautiful rooms with view of pyramids from both the room and stunning rooftop terrace (perfect breakfast). Very stylish decor with a contemporary design but still very comfortable. The hosts were extremely hospitable who went above and beyond to offer a fantastic standard of service. They were on hand to help with anything we needed and offered lots of activities to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. A reliable family business with brilliant customer service skills from both Amar, Kazim and the whole family.

    The luxury of waking up and eating breakfast with a superb view of the pyramids is incredible. The room is very confortable. We were a bit cold because it was winter, but the owner of the hotel and its staff were very responsive and provided us with extra blankets and a portable heater. The service provided is excellent, we even got help finding taxis or making restaurant reservations when we could not do it ourselves. This is a guesthouse but with the comfort, interior design and quality of service of higher level hotels. We highly recommend.
