    They recommended us very good places to eat, visit and enjoy. I would repeat without a doubt. Khaled, Noura and Loli are the best ones, also the ladies that make the breakfast (unfortunately I don't know the names).

    Could have better signage on outside of building

    Awesome staff! This is the best investment for this place. Loved the solo bunk with a curtain, breakfast is simple but is good. They helped me with a guide and recommended an amazing Koshery. Only two bathrooms but it really wasn't an issue, I never had to wait.

    Excellent location “right in front of” the Tahrir square with incredible hosts. Noura is the loveliest receptioner I have ever met in my life, extremely sweet and helpful. Nice facilities, surprisingly delicious breakfast (fresh mango juice!) and pleasant services. A place I would definitely comeback for :)

    there is no street sign so had to look hard to find the door - although there is a sign just inside the doorway which I saw from the street.

    close to the museum and Tabrir square and not too far from Ramsis station - 30min walk. the staff were lovely and served a nice Egyptian style breakfast. they let you leave your bag while looking at sites. has 3 toilets and a good Egyptian book that I enjoyed reading.

    My stay from beginning after the end was perfect. Everyone was so kind and helpfull in every way. People working in Tahrir Square Hostel are really passionate about what they do. This place felt to me more like home not hostel! Thank You for making my stay so enjoyable. Special thanks to Noura :)

    Very good location, so close to the Egyptian museum. Noura was super helpful she helped us throughout our time in Egypt. She organised tours, airport transfers and even go us to try Koshary which is a delicious Egyptian dish. She was so friendly and helpful and because of her we had a even better experience in Egypt. The hostel also stored our luggage safely while we went out exploring Cairo. Thanks Noura and Tahrir Square Hostel.

    There was just one bathroom. They don't give you different options regarding to the breakfast just like basic egyptian. If you want a tour by the pyramids doit by yourself!

    I like the room, the staff was really nice and helpful, the laundry service was great and the kitchen was nice... Josse or Yoseb offered a tour by the city and he was really great very informative and kind person I recommend him if you want a tour knowing the local places and food. He is the guy you need.

    Not the hostel's fault at all, but there were very few guests at the time so not a lot of social opportunities.

    Very central location, right by Tahrir Square, very convenient for the Egyptian Museum (although when the new one opens in Giza, there will be less reason to be in this area as a tourist!). Comfortable, affordable private room. A special word for one of the staff, Noura, who was totally welcoming and provided really helpful information and recommendations. She is an absolute gem.
