Set back from the main road so therefore nice and quite. Also several nice restaurants nearby.
Yaorong
Clean room, great front desk staff
Zorayda
My daughter and I stayed at El Farida Hotel, for 5 nights. The hotel is a new hotel, very clean, confortable room, good Wi-FI, The manager and staff always with a smile and helpful. Good breakfast, bottle of water provided every day. Walkable to the old Egyptian museum, to bakeries, and shopping.
Thank you to Ahmed, front desk manager, always so helpful, thank you Ahmed,
We do recommend El Farida Hotel.

Don't expect to get any sleep
The hotel and it's staff are good but don't expect to get a good night's sleep. There's a restaurant next door which plays loud music until 2:00am in the morning. I had booked for 10 nights and I hardly only managed to get any sleep.
Siraj
Not a good hotel to get a good night sleep
If you're expecting a good night's sleep, this hotel is not the right place to stay. Through no fault of the hotel, I had 10 nights lack of sleep as there's a restaurant right next door which plays loud music until 2:00am.
I would not recommend a stay here and will certainly not be staying myself at the next visit.

I loved this hotel, very clean and the staff is very polite.. The breakfasts buffets is ok. Also closer to some stores and closer to the old museum

Overall the hotel is suitable for low budget stay with decent rooms. Room and bathrooms are fine and towels provided. Working AC in all rooms. Extra amenities can sometimes be provided on request e.g kettle for the room.
Cleaning must be requested.
Breakfast is a little limited but alright - cheese, sliced ham, yogurt, breads, omelette (cooked to order), falafel.
Staff were friendly and did their best to be helpful. Can exchange money, book tours, and arrange taxis.
Surrounding area is noisy but to be expected for centre of city.

The hotel has a best location. They have a good breakfast. The staffs are so friendly and helpful. Stay in this hotel when you visit Cairo. ❤️
Wieslaw
Beautiful renovated hotel in the middle of downtown Cairo. Great, courteous and helpful staff. Room and all common areas super clean and well-maintained. Great value for the price. Highly recommend over much pricier adjacent nearby properties such as Ritz or Hilton..
Tracey Ann
My son and I have had the most wonderful stay here. The staff are friendly and so very helpful, kind and lovely. Breakfast was an added bonus and our room was large and spacious. Great location for downtown, easy to get taxis anywhere we wanted to go. I would definitely stay here again. Lovely.

Colin
Very friendly and helpful staff. No English TV service. An excellent downtown location, a 10 minute walk to the Egyptian Museum.
Raja
Excellent hotel. Excellent service. Excellent breakfast. I Highly recommend this hotel
Olga
I cannot say much about the hotel since they moved me to a different one -- on a noisy street and a bit lower quality\cheaper. The staff was friendly and apologetic, but the substitution was not adequate. I received no advance notice that the reserved room was unavailable and nothing was offered as compensation.

Thanks

Wonderful Hotel ! Great staff!
Martin
This is a really great place. It's a mid-range hotel which outperforms a lot of higher-end places I've stayed in in many parts of the world. Even though I don't speak Arabic, the staff always made me feel at home. The manager Hassan was not only genteel but arranged for everything we needed logistically. We used drivers from the hotel for tours of Cairo's many cultural offerings as well as to Giza. There is also an amazing breakfast every morning featuring fresh, delicious Egyptian food. The hotel is also located in downtown within walking distance of restaurants, bakeries, cafes, juice places, outdoor shisha and conversation places. Overall just a terrific place to stay. Highly recommended.

The room (floor and bed )weren't the cleanest. The kitchen staff at breakfast was rude and short tempered when I made request. The breakfast itself was minimal.

I like the cleanliness of the hotel. The staff was was very friendly and helpful I also liked the fact that Yousef Mohamed remembered me from a previous visit,The care of the staff was excellent and I will recommend all of my friends to stay whenever they visit Cairo.

Such a wonderful, lovely and enjoyable hotel. Rooms were amazing, clean, in the middle of everything and an oasis in the city. It’s super cozy!
Ewa
A six-nights stay
We have fond memories of our stay at the El-Farida; after a few days, we became acquainted with its operations – from reception to breakfast service – and made a conscious effort not to overburden the staff with our requests. It's worth noting that the owner is genuinely committed to service quality. While he may not directly oversee every aspect, his influence is evident. Younger receptionists sometimes seem hesitant in their interactions with foreign guests, for example, it took them three days discussing the malfunctioning television in our room. However, the seasoned employees exhibit a commendable dedication, often compensating for any shortcomings. Nonetheless, everyone on staff is remarkably helpful and adept at addressing guests' needs.
Shampoo, shower gel, soap, and towels are available in the bathroom, and the air conditioning is dual-function, allowing you to raise the room temperature in winter (although it was unnecessary in February). Cattle is available upon request at the reception desk.

ツアーで用意してもらった4つ星よりだんぜん綺麗で、朝ご飯もおいしかった。
惜しいのは、Wifiでもネット環境が悪かったとこです

こちらのホテル、スタッフの対応が素晴らしく、清潔です。カイロに着いた時に、突如次の日から開始するルクソール、アブシンベルのツアーがキャンセルされた連絡が入り、途方にくれていましたが、ホテルの受けつけのAhmedに相談するとすぐにHassanというツアーコーディネーターを呼んでくれました。こちらのホテルはツアー会社が経営しているらしく、すぐに同じツアーを同等の料金で用意し、突如キャンセルしてきたツアー会社へ返金交渉までしてくれました。こちらのスタッフの方々、何か問題あれば多分助けてくれますよ。次カイロに行く機会があれば必ずこちらに泊まります。

客室は清潔ですが、2人分のスーツケースを開けるにはスペースが少ないかもしれません。また机みたいなものがなく、ベッドの横の電話が置いてある台で全てのことを済ませないといけません。このため、2人で宿泊する場合には少し不便になってくるかもしれません。Wifiなどの電波状況はあまり良くないです。また、2階の一番端に宿泊しましたが、夜中までレストランなどの騒音が続くので安眠したい方には向いてないかもしれません。
少し不便な点もありますが、それを上回るのが朝食とサービスです。
朝食は最初に出されている内容はコールドメニューやパン、果物でホットメニューがほとんどないなと思っていたら、席に着いて少ししたらボリューミーなオムレツ、揚げたてサクサクのターメイヤなどを持ってきてくれます。ターメイヤはエジプトで食べた中で一番美味しいターメイヤでした。他のムサカ？みたいものなども美味しかったですし、他の国の料理も提供されて珍しいです。
クリーニングも2枚で40EGPと格安で、近隣のクリーニング店に持って行く前に値段を聞いていたら、全部の洗濯物をホテルでやってもらったくらいです。
スタッフの方も皆さん親切で、英語が流暢でない場合でもグーグルでなんとかしようとしてくれました。
お値打ちのお値段で、美味しい朝食がついて、クリーニングもしてくれるので、ありがたいホテルです。

シングルで予約したが、部屋の広さはそれなりにあり、綺麗で快適。部屋の清掃も頼めば毎日しっかりやってくれる。シャワー室の密閉具合もしっかりしており、水漏れなく、お湯の出もよい。
徒歩圏内にお酒の飲めるレストランも多数あり、日本円から両替可能なレートのよい両替所や地下鉄のsadat駅も近い。
ホテルのWi-Fiも問題なく使えたが、ホテルの壁が厚いのか、部屋では現地でesimで繋げたOrangeEgyptの電波が全く入らなかった。
とにかくコスパがよいのでお勧めです。

Hôtel très bien situé et calme malgré le bruit du quartier. Personnel très agréable. Salle de bain parfaite.
Quelques un peu vieillots (Clim en particulier) et manque de variété au petit déjeuner mais globalement nous sommes très satisfaits. Une bonne adresse.

清潔さは極上、コスパ最高。天井の高い部屋は実に優雅。
シーリングライトが１つ玉切れしていたのが惜しいところ。価格から考えれば仕方ないのかも知れないが、部屋でお茶が飲めるぐらいの「ごく普通の」セット（電気ポットとティーバックとカップ）ぐらいはあるとよかった。
グラスも歯磨き用の物しか置いていないので、ジュースを買って飲むにも不便。という事で星四つ。
新築で輝いてるホテルである事には間違いない。エレベーターの箱にドアが無いのはエジプト流。

Sehr praktische Lage nahe Tahir Platz, große Dusche und großer Kühlschrank, sauber, Frühstücksbuffet im obersten Stock mit sehr freundlichem Koch, der einem zB Omlett oder Falaffel macht. Das Personal an der Rezeption war auch freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die kostenlose Abholung vom Flughafen (ab drei Nächten) war sehr praktisch, da im Ankunftsbereich jede Menge Leute ein Taxi vermitteln wollen.
Die Betten fanden wir etwas weich, dafür sind die Kopfkissen harte Schaumstoffblöcke. Wie auch in anderen Bewertungen angemerkt, ist es für diese Lage nicht so laut aber es schadet nicht ein paar Ohropax dabei zu haben. Den Safe kann man nur nach Reprogrammierung durch einen Angestellten benutzen (Trinkgeld) und standardmäßig wird nur eine relativ unergiebige Toilettenpapierrolle bereitgestellt.
Unterm Strich würden wir es noch einmal buchen.

Cairo downtown.
Começaramos por trocar de quarto uma vez que o inicialmente disponibilizado cheirava imenso a tinta, havia sido acabado de pintar.
O segundo não estava convenientemente limpo.
O pequeno almoço era muito pobre.
O staff era simpático e a localização é boa.
O Hotel pode facilmente ter uma classificação boa se melhorarem a limpeza e o pequeno almoço.
