City View Hotel was amazing! The hotel management did a wonderful job ensuring me and my family were comfortable and had necessary transportation. The room was very clean, the bathroom was on the small side but we were okay. I loved how it was in the center of everything! We literally went to the Egyptian museum right across the street from the hotel. We could walk to nearly any store, restaurants we very close and I absolutely love the coffee shop right next door! My husband is sold and we will stay here again Yahweh Willing in the future.

I ALWAYS stay here when i visit Cairo. It is in the perfect location and has wonderful views over Tahrir Square and the Egyptian Museum. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and treat guests like family.

Sure, it can be loud at night, but that comes with the location. Take a 'white noise' playlist and you'll be fine. Enjoy your stay!

Very strange experience. Be aware.

I booked to stay at City View Hotel. When I arrived they put me on the phone with the reception. The person on the other end told me that my room was in another building of the hotel which is 2 minutes walk down the road. He said someone would accompany me there. We walked to the building, and to my surprise it was a completely different hotel: called Amin Hotel. I didn't book at Amin Hotel and told the guy at the reception. He wasn't concerned nor did he understand my concern. I told him it's not right to move guests between hotels like that which he didn't seem to understand. If I was a woman, I would not have accepted being moved between hotels as it is potentially dangerous situation. When I Google Amin Hotel it comes up as a completely separate hotel, with poor reviews. It is a 1 star hotel, but the City View Hotel (which I made my reservation) is a 3 star hotel. The room was basic and small, but fine. The shower didn't have a door or screen, so when you shower water goes everywhere and then you have to clean it up or risk slipping and breaking your leg. The TV didn't work. The breakfast was terrible. There was nobody who spoke English so nothing was clear or communicable. The food offered was stale and of awful quality. You don't get to choose what to eat, but rather get given a few pre-selected things. There was no fruit, no yogurt, no juice. I pre-paid the hotel US$15 for a taxi to take me to the airport at 4am on Monday, but when I went down my taxi was not there.

The City View Hotel was a safe and convenient place to stay while I was in Cairo. It is centrally located. The food, I thought was mediocre. There were a lot of packaged items for breakfast and the restaurant served meals that were adequate but the quality wasn’t that great. I think if the hotel wanted to improve it should revamp the entire kitchen in terms of what is available for breakfast and the quality of their food, in comparison to better restaurants and types of cooking. Also more variety of choices for meals would have been nice. The one shining star for me was Hassan, who arranged my travel for the entire country. He listened to and took in my preferences, my limitations, and my sensibilities. He listened in a way that supported me as a person and as a unique traveler with unique needs and wishes. I felt deeply seen and heard, and the conversations we had were very affirming, meaningful, and helped me understand how to navigate the country in a way I couldn’t have known or done on my own. All the arrangements for drivers and guides were punctual, and professional, as well as friendly and positive. I encourage anyone staying at the City Hotel to ask for Hassan to help them plan their trip in the way best for them. Thank you, Hassan!

I was in touch before I arrived with the hotel driver via WhatsApp.

I sent him my flight details etc. He assured me that the hotel car would meet me at the airport.
He did not show up and he didn't answer my WhatsApp message.

Not a great start, I was disappointed as it was supposed to be a free shuttle for a three night stay. I had to make other arrangements late at night after thirty hours of travel.

I also asked for a double bed and overlooking Tahrir Square. I received a room overlooking the gas station and a room with two single beds.

Slightly disappointed with this stay.

We are disappointed with our experience at City View Hotel. When we arrived at the hotel, they said they were overbooked and didn’t have room for us, even though we had a confirmation from Expedia and had booked our room over a month in advance. That was not a fun thing to hear after a long, tiring day of traveling. We ended up having to walk to another hotel with all of our luggage. There was no warning from them before we got there to check in - they could have at least messaged us so we could have taken our taxi to the other hotel instead of having to walk. Also, the airport shuttle is NOT free, as Expedia advertised. It is 500 LE one way.

Overall this was a great, budget friendly, hotel. Pick up from the airport was only $15 USD which was reasonable if you didn’t want to deal with taxis. Just make sure to pick up your Vodaphone SIM card at the kiosk at the airport before you leave so you don’t have to wonder around without data looking for one. Very friendly staff and could get you some good deals for day tours. I had a standard room and it did the trick as I really only used it to sleep and store my things. Breakfast was included and is a set menu - a little bit of everything and vegetarian friendly. You’re right in the heart of Tahrir Square and across from the Nile Ritz-Carlton Hotel. I felt very safe walking around and shopping / restaurants were all very walkable. If you’re not adventurous with new foods there are restaurants like McDs and KFC but if you want authentic food like Koshery there are lots of great places. There is an electronic store 6 minutes by foot that takes credit cards if you need to pick up a charging plug or cords. The Egyptian Museum is also across the street. Overall, I definitely recommend staying here.

The staff at City View Hotel are really friendly and incredibly helpful. When there was a small problem in our room, they did everything they could to sort it out as soon as they could - nothing was too much trouble for them. It's that personal touch that makes a good hotel stand out. And I challenge any other hotel in Cairo to have a balcony with such a brilliant setting - to eat your delicious breakfast with a view over the Egyptian Museum and the buzzing Tahrir Square below is a real treat, every morning.

Pros: It is conveniently located near the museum and lots of little shops and restaurants. It has very good air conditioning. The staff were nice enough, (side note, the seemingly nice guy in charge of the Ali Baba restaurant in the hotel didn't understand that I paid for a large bottle of water at the front desk, so he kept asking me to pay him.)

Cons: if you want a clean place with little noise disruption, skip this place entirely. Their standard for a 3 star hotel is very much equal to a 1 star. There is way too much noise from the traffic right outside the hotel if you are a light sleeper. The wifi is choppy, and the breakfast seems like they found the cheapest options to throw together to make it passable.

It worked for me because I knew it was very economically priced so I looked past all the short comings because I was invited to a wedding across the street at the Ritz Carlton (which was $300 a nite vs around $40 at CVH) and spent most of my time at the Ritz. I only went back to the city view hotel after fun crazy nights and only needed rest. So if you just need a semi clean place to rest and will enjoy the sites and everything else most of you time there, then it may be sufficient.

No water!

Reading through the comments again, it made me think that the tap of the first room I stayed in isn't really working. So I had to buy (yes it was not fiven for free) bottles of drinking water so I can wash my self before sleeping and leaving the first day. I was told the issue on the water was happening in all of Cairo, but I checked with the tour guide I was with for the day, and that was not true. I just hoped they could've done something about that, instead of just telling me the issue was in all of Cairo. The only reason I am not rating this as 1, is because my second night was pretty decent. Also, it seemed that their scanner and photocopy machines were not working as I had to wait for a few minutes to get my passport back. They even asked for it again, cause apparently, they were not able to copy it the first time.

City view hotel is as the name suggests and no more. The hotels photos suggest the rooms are bright and clean when in fact they’re small, dirty and in need of repair. Broken taps, a safe that didn’t work, hot water that ran out, non working tv, leaky bathrooms floor, and the extremity of noise from car honking all night is enough for me to not recommend this place. Although the staff were kind, the pickup and drop off from/to the airport in someone’s dirty car, with no seatbelts and barely squeezing our luggage in was not worth it. Very disappointed.

I can't really evaluate this hotel as (which happens not infrequently) they had overbooked the hotel and the room was not available. But \"We have many City View Hotels in Cairo\" ! No, they don't but they have agreements with other small hotels in the area that can provide a room at the same rate. However, not with a 'City View'.

Cons- Needs updating stat! minimal toiletries (given 3 packets of one time use shampoo; bar of soap -they tried to pass it off as new - placed in old wrapper). Floors dirty (bring slippers). Airconditioning passable - but unable to change temperature. Tv/safe didn't work. Bring ear plugs - walls thin - can hear outside car honking/etc. throughout day and night. Bathroom towel bar fell out when i pulled the towel. Limited breakfast- but enough to start your morning early.

Great location and view of the area. Roof top view fabulous. We stayed here for 2 separate visits. Problem with first two rooms hot water; third room ok. Amenities are bare bone; charged for bottled water.

Nice hotel in a central location

We enjoyed our stay at City View Hotel. Everyone there was so friendly and helpful. Accommodations, while not luxury, were all we really needed and we were quite comfortable. The view from the balcony was of the Egyptian museum with the Nile in the background. Good location to explore Cairo from.

Traditional Egyptian Hotel

Do you want a 5 star fancy hotel? The Nile ritz Carleton is across the street. This is a traditional Egyptian hotel with traditional Egyptian breakfast. Beds are semi-comfortable. Staff is extra humble helpful and friendly. The Egyptian breakfast is amazing with a view of the Nile River. Highly recommended if your in to experience the culture, but don’t expect super fancy.

A good priced hotel in a great location.

I went with my family to Cairo on the 2nd of August 2019 and stayed in City View Hotel for five nights. The hotel sent two cars to receive us from the airport as per their free airport pickup service. During our stay, there was a slight problem with the tap of our bathroom. They immediately provided us a new room. The hotel is in a very good location as it is only a few minutes walk to the Cairo Museum and a ten minute walk to the famous koshery, Abu Tarek. The hotel breakfast was good but could be better. The hot falafels served every morning were delicious. The hotel manager organised a city tour for us on our request, with a reasonable price. All staff including the drivers are professional and helpful. We enjoyed our stay in this hotel. We highly recommend this hotel for their service and it’s location.
