The room was generally clean, probably one of the rooms that had been renovated before. Scattered white paint could be seen on the floor. As long as you give the key to the front desk, someone will clean the room every day. Compared with other Egyptian hotels, this is already quite good. The front desk staff and other relevant staff were enthusiastic in their service. The breakfast was buffet-style, but it was a typical Egyptian breakfast, which Chinese people might not be used to. The hotel is located in the city center, so it is relatively convenient to get a taxi. It will probably be a backup hotel next time.
I really enjoyed my stay here. The location of the hotel is close to a main road so traveling from and to the hotel was very convenient. Also getting to the hotel from the airport took no more than 20 minutes. The room looked exactly as advertised in the pictures and everything we needed was available. The staff was also very helpful. We had an issue connecting to the WiFi. We called the reception and within a couple of minutes someone reset the router we could go online. I will definitely stay here again whenever I come back.
Everything is fully consistent with the stated characteristics, I stay in this place not for the first time, the service is completely satisfied, the staff are very polite and try to get stuck .
With a stay at Prime Select Kattameya Bavaria in Cairo (Al-Basatin), you'll be within a 10-minute drive of Downtown Katameya and Egypt International Exhibitions Center. This apartment is 14.8 mi (23.8 km) from Giza Pyramid Complex and 9.4 mi (15.1 km) from Khan el-Khalili.
Free self parking is available onsite.
Make yourself at home in one of the 6 guestrooms, featuring kitchens with full-sized refrigerators/freezers and microwaves. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected. Conveniences include safes and irons/ironing boards, and housekeeping is provided daily.
I can only say that this is the cleanest hotel I stayed in during all the days I stayed in Egypt. It was not far from the airport the next morning. It took about 18 minutes to drive. It was also convenient to park by car. You can park directly at the door in the villa area. But Cairo is really not suitable for self-driving.
It was so comfortable that I extended my stay another night (lol).
The guy at the front desk didn't say much, but he said goodnight. I was happy.
I really wanted to have the maid's breakfast.
To be honest, the retro elevator was scary the first time I rode it. I didn't really know how to use it. It wouldn't move unless you touched the control panel with your security key chain.
You can't enter the guest room floors without a security key, so I think it's safe for women too.
The area around the hotel was lit up even at night, and there were lots of people there.
I can confidently recommend this hotel!
It was inconvenient that JCB cards couldn't be used in Egypt, but I was able to withdraw local currency from an ATM near this hotel.
There are two ATMs lined up next to each other just past the Vodafone shop.
With a kitchen, you can cook. Near the hotel are large shopping malls and supermarkets, shopping is very convenient. If you take a taxi, it is best to use Uber, and there are few taxis. The overall service is not bad, the apartment is relatively cost-effective
Very nice staff
But the location is a bit scary (but convenient)
A bit like the Chongqing Building in Hong Kong
The surrounding is very messy
The elevator often breaks down
The room was nice
One night stay is OK
XXINLAN1. The location is good, within walking distance to the Egyptian Museum, subway, and kazaz, which is a 1.3km walk from gobus tahir station, which is very downtown.
2. The hotel has an elevator, which is very rare. I have stayed in a nearby hotel which is also located in an old house. There is no elevator and I need to carry my luggage. The elevator is not big enough to accommodate about 4 people (without luggage), but it is much better than climbing stairs by yourself.
3. There is one triple room and one double room. The triple room is quite spacious and the standard room is not large enough.
4. There is no hot water kettle or hair dryer in the room, you can ask for it at the front desk, but the number of these two items in the entire hotel is limited, so I waited for a long time...
5. It’s more cost-effective to pay in US dollars than in Egyptian pounds. The exchange rate for paying Egyptian pounds is not so good.
6. Breakfast starts at 8:00. If you want to go to the Black and White Desert, the driver usually picks up at 7:30. If you don’t have time to eat breakfast, you can go to the rooftop restaurant to pack some (the restaurant is still preparing breakfast at 7:30, and the things that can be packed are limited. Eggs, bread, flatbread, jam, that’s all)
AArman964The staff were friendly and good. The location and the view wasn't that good, my shower was broken but the staff came to fix me as soon as I complained. The water was cold so that's a minus point and it was going under construction so a bit noisy.
GGuest UserWe would definitely come back again! We have enjoyed staying at Salam 275 hotel during our visit to Cairo. The room we booked was exactly as it’s described online, the stuff are very nice and respectful and they go above and beyond to help their gusts with everything they need
And specially MOHEMADE RIFAD who work at the front desk is a supper genuine, very special nice man! The first night we checked in at their hotel, we did not have any Egyptian currency yet to purchase anything, and thus, he went ahead and paid for all of our meal from his own money… (and offer to help if theirs anything else that we need) and we returned his money to him the next day.
They assisted us with everything we need at the hotel and or outside, directing us touring the city, places to go and even find us the honest taxi drivers that we can use. We appreciate their hospitality
MMohamedAkl1We spent one night at the Rivana Residence hotel. The location was confusing at first as it doesn't have big hotel signs. Once we got in we were welcomed by reception. We had a nice apartment which looks like we were one of the new users of the room or even the whole building. Everything was very clean, the room had a kettle and a microwave as well as some cutlery. The room also included a sofa and a big desk. Overall the stay was very nice and if I want somewhere near 5th district this would be definitely one of the first choices to book.
Only one improvement I can think of is that there were no teabags or instant coffee packets. This is usually included in most hotels and would've been great to have a cup of tea in the morning
GGuest UserIn the same building with other hotels, it is not easy to find. The facilities in the building are relatively old, the elevator is very old, and the door has to be opened by itself, which is quite interesting. The facilities in the house are okay, you can try it. The price of this kind of hotel in Cairo is still cheap. It is very close to the Khalili market. The breakfast is also very good. If you are not very particular, you can stay here.
AAnonymous UserGeneral impression - a normal place to stay for a few nights.
Perfect location nearby Egyptian Museum and the Sadat subway station. But this causes a very noisy surrounding: honking cars move just beneath the windows all day long. Helpful staff. A very nice cafe La Poire accessible without leaving the building. Good breakfast, a lot of options changing daily. Coffee could have been better though. The room was cleaned (I moved two beds together and found no dust underneath), but it's quite weary. The window lock didn't work, the fridge was loud. Black mold in the shower was upsetting, too. No iron nor ironing board in the room, but ironing service available at a reasonable price about 50 EGP per piece.
GGuest UserThe location is in the city center, and it is very convenient to go everywhere.
The room is very spacious, a three-bed room. The shower did not work and it was fixed quickly.
The front desk helped me buy a conversion plug.
The breakfast was rich and delicious.
One day we came back late and they made dinner for us.
I spent an unforgettable time here with my two children alone. I am very grateful to every staff of the hotel.
