"for Clarification"
Hi, It's an overall good, clean & comfort hotel, the only problem I experienced & made a big problem for me is the crowded loud busy street it overlooks as I'm very light sleeper. I do recommend this very good hotel to anyone else if the noise isn't a problem.Genuine Expedia guest review
"OK...location pretty poor"
Hotel is OK...everything working, hot water, compfortable room. Some of the staff are trying to be friendy but overall the staff are not very warm. The location is not very good, right on the main busy street with a lack of food and cafe's. The hotel does not serve good coffee....and finding one near by is difficult. I would look for a different hotel […] in Cairo. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Nice hotel. Invonvenient location. Sort of corrupt"
Unless the price for this hotel is more than 30% less than downtown hotels, don't stay here. Instead pay a little more and stay closer to central Cairo. Any money you save on the room, you'll spend on transportation. This, even though Cairo taxies are cheep Hotel is modern and clean. Most service staff are helpful. Free Internet isn't really free. […] Internet unexpectidly died. Front desk said I'm only allowed three hours of free internet by order of the manager. I argued that free means free throughout the stay. After two hours of debating, the front desk person agreed to activate the internet for 48 hours, the duration of my stay. Hotel actively participates in the Cairo and Egypt extortion campaign. Within 10 mintues of checking in, the bellman was making me under-the-table offers for tour and transportation service. On checkout the hotel's official taxicab coordinator asked me whether I wanted the hotel to call me a cab or get one myself outside. He said the hotel's price is 130 Egyption Pounds. He winked as if to suggest "go outside, you'll get a better deal." So I did. Another guy from the hotel followed me outside and asked me quietly, "how much do you want to pay?" Clearly he knew that I'd offer something less than 130 Pounds. I offered 100 Pounds. He said "how about 110." I said "105." He said okay and stopped me a taxi. Remember, this was a hotel official.

"I wouldn't go back even though the hotel was beautiful."
When I arrived at the hotel I was given the "royal" treatment. Assistance with my bags, friendly, effiecient, and prompt service at the front desk, and the bellman offered to arrange a tour of the Giza Pyramids. The hotel is beautiful (however is in a disgusting neighborhood - garbage everywhere). I had some difficulty getting an adaptor for my plugs, […] but the bellman managed to get one from the front desk (after I asked them 4 times for one and they kept telling me to call housekeeping - who told me to call the front desk...). The food was pretty good in room service and average for the breakfast buffet. I was not impressed with the "taxi" service in the hotel. Although they were friendly and available for a "drop of a hat" drive - they overcharged by at least 30 Egyptian pounds to the airport and pretty muched "scammed" me on the "tour" to the Giza pyramids and Egyptian museam (they charged me 320 pounds for the car/driver). I could have taken a cab to both places for about 25 pounds each.... Barcelo Pyramids hotel is a wolf in sheeps clothing - be on your guard. It's a nice looking hotel, but I would have rather stayed in the city of Cairo near the Nile river. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

Good Hotel in a commercial street, quite far from the centre but close to pyramids. Good rate for the quality.Genuine Expedia guest review

"Windowless room in otherwise fine hotel"
The hotel was fine. Clean and well appointed, especially by Egyptian standards. However, my room didn't have a single window, which is unacceptable design considering the hotel is newly built. The service was good. The neighbourhood, not so much. Relatively close to the Giza Pyramids, but would have been smarter to stay in Dokki or another area worth […] venturing out into during the evenings. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Best middle-of-the-road hotel in cairo"
it was the only hotel that was in the mid price range that was decent. the next best hotel was a fortune, the one under it was way too crusty. the hotel was nice but just not tha clean. but then again, the whole egypt was so dirty and gross. in looks and comfort it was nice, but any 2-3 start hotel in usa is cleaner. still best optionif you dont want […] to pay crazy prices for the really nice ones. also, no one spoke a good eglish which was frustrating.

"Close to the Pyramids, but not really close"
I had booked a luxurious junior suite, with garden view. The room I got was a suite alright, but there was NO windows with natural light in the room. The layout of the room was also very cramped. The sink and shower did not work properly and the it was very cold in the room, and no way of getting the heating to work. The room was also supposed to have […] free WiFi, which it did. But, the speed was 2kbps and it was the most unstable internet I have ever used. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Stay at five star instead!"
The hotel itself is 4 star but the location is scary. The hotel driver told us on the last day that the buildings behind are brothels. The airport transfer cars are old. I used the hotel tour desk and they dropped us off with the dodgiest people to do pyramids. I had asked the hotel how much pyramid tour would cost and he wouldnotgiveme an newer telling […] me I had to barter. I asked if the drivers could help do that and he said es but they disappeared as soon as they dropped us off. The tour people made me feel very unsafe. The hassled us constantly during the tour about giving more money even though we had given generous tips too. They rushed us t the pyramids and gave us very little information. I would recommend staying in five star hotel as they would deal with a professional company. We Stayed five star for rest of our trip in middle east and it was a totally different experience... Safer and professional with knowledgable guides organised. Otherwise... Stay at the hotel but organise transfers and tours with a outside professional company yourself. Breakfast was very good. Staff at the hotel were pleasant. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Missleading!!!"
The BC Pyramids hotel was nice and clean, but did not live up to the standards we were expecting. The staff was quite rude and hungry for tips. The airconditioning in our room did not work. Of the 3 restaurants on site, only 1 was actually open the entire week we were there. And you need the hotel restaurant because there is nowhere to eat nearby meaning […] more taxi trips which are quite expensive. A warning for anyone using the taxi/tour service located in the hotel lobby. One guy, I didn't catch his name was quite helpful and honest. He explained their price sheet and worked with us from there. The other tried to dupe us and threw out some outrageous prices and never even pulled out his price sheet. Luckily we knew what to expect so we didn't work with him. Just make sure they show you the prices on their print out sheet!!! But really, if you want a good tour company we highly reccomend Memphis tours. They were amazing. We contacted them on very short notice and they were prompt and efficient in replying and arranging every thing we wanted to see. Our guide Turk was very knowledgeable and so fun. It felt like we gained a friend. Their service is also very resonably priced. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

IT WAS A SHAME THAT OUR DREAM TRIP TO EGYPT WAS AT A TIME WHEN THE COUNTRY WAS IN A STATE OF TURMOIL AND THAT THE AVERAGE EGYPTIAN WAS THERE TO RIP YOU OFFBUT THERE WAS A SILVER LINING IN THE CLOUD AND THAT WAS THE STAFF AT THE HOTEL, IT WAS A BIT TIRED BUT THE STAFF MADE UP FOR IT.

"Would use again if no other hotel available"
The Hotel was clean generally, it was not situated in a very pleasant area, the staff were generally friendly, however I found that apart from the reception staff, very few of the other staff spoke english.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Not that impressed for a four star hotel"
Location was good, close to pyramids, although very noisy. Some staff very friendly and helpful and others don’t even know how to smile. Language is definitely a barrier as they cannot answer the simplest of questions. For any tourist information we were told to go to the so called “Taxi Manager” who is a complete rip off merchant and harassed us at […] every opportunity he got. We booked two excursions with him that were very costly and felt very rushed by the driver who took us to the Giza pyramids. He sends you off to expensive shops where everything is extremely expensive. Breakfast buffet was good and staff very nice. Don’t take hotel taxis as they cost three times as much, catch a black and white taxi instead and pay much less. Do be careful of these taxis though as they tend to make prices up when they see tourists. Check taxi rates with some local people. Hotel room was nice and relatively clean.

"Hotel con alcuni punti da migliorare"
L'hotel si trova a circa 1h30 dall'aeroporto, in una zona comoda per raggiungere le Piramidi. E' situato su una strada molto trafficata, quindi è consigliabile prenotare una camera ubicata ad un piano alto e possibilmente sul lato laterale o sul retro. Siamo stati colpiti positivamente dalla ristorazione. Punti negativi invece la pulizia della camera […] - mi riferisco soprattutto alla pulizia della moquette - e la sicurezza della camera, consiglio di portare sempre con se soldi o oggetti di valore. Prima della partenza avevo letto altri commenti relativi alla sicurezza in camera e mi sono stati utili. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"観光スポット"
ピラミッドに非常に近く観光に行くなら非常に便利です。ホテルはメインストリートに位置してるので夜非常にうるさいが近くに飲み物を買える場所もあり、買い物も出来るので利便性にはいいです。ただ特に受付スタッフの態度が非常に悪くそれ以外のスタッフはとても優しいですGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"今後の為に"
良くエジプトに行くので利用するホテルです。4星ですが実際は・・・・ 新しいので綺麗な事は綺麗です。2~3泊なら問題ないですが長期だと毎日朝食が同じで飽きてしまします味も普通です。ただ場所的には便利なのでいいと思います。 帰り空港までホテルリムジンを利用しましたが通常より料金が高いうえ必要以上にチップを要求されます、ホテル前からタクシーを利用すれば半分くらいの値段でいけます。Genuine Expedia guest review
Отель произвёл не очень хорошее впечатление .Персонал на ресепшен не очень приветливый. Были проблемы с интернетом в номере, я объяснила, что нужен интернет постоянно на все время пребывания, но мне продали за 10$ карту на 1 час пользования. Когда я это поняла, спустилась на ресепшен и задала вопрос, почему не работает интернет мне объяснили что проблемы […] у меня. На следующий день через друзей, которые говорят на арабском я всё таки выяснила что карта всего на 1 час. только после этого мне предложили оплатить 150 единиц местной валюты чтобы подключить сеть постоянно, интернет работал 4 дня после этого опять начались проблемы. На ресепшен постоянно делали вид что не говорят по русски и плохо на английском….НО!!! когда возникла проблема с доплатой с моей стороны персонал тут же начал говорить на русском языке))) в номере почистили пол только 1 раз за 2 недели…в номере очень холодно ,обратилась на ресепшен с этой проблемой сказали « просто отключите кондиционер» )))) вытяжка в ванной комнате не работает .Персонал в кафе в холле хороший…Район не спокойный …вид из окна ужасный. Вообще не являюсь привередливым человеком и путешествую мало….но такого обслуживания ещё не видела ,за все время пребывания было очень неприятно общаться с сотрудниками отеля на ресепшен.

"Das Barcelo' Hotel lag in unmittelbarer Nähe der Pyramiden."
Das Hotel war sauber. Preise nach europäischem Standard. Personal war freundlich, jedoch hat man in manchen Bars etwas lange auf den Kellner gewartet.Essen war lecker. Jedoch hört man 24 Std lang das "gehupe" der Autos auf der Straße (durchgehend wegen dem regen Verkehr) was einen nicht unbedingt einen erholsamen Schlaf lässt, genauso wie die Gebete […] durch die Lautsprecher (5x mal am Tag), hört man leider zu dolle. Sind immer wieder dadurch aufgewacht! Zu den Pyramiden fährt man mit Taxi oder öffentl. Verk.mitteln ca 10 min. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Hotel de calidad excepto por los trabajadores"
Los empleados del Hotel, no son de fiar, cobran comisiones por casi todo y por ello os engañaran en casi todo, NUNCA cojais un taxi de los que os ofrece el hotel el precio supera el doble de lo que podeis pagar por uno con taximetro, no pidais información en el hotel los empleados no se enteran de nada ni de horarios de las atracciones ni de nada. Los […] servicios de taxis prácticamente os los obligarán a coger pero NEGAROS ahorrareis más del doble de dinero. El personal suele ser rudo sobre todo en bar piscina. Había una pareja gay de la que no paraban de reirse, si eres gay ni se te ocurra alojarte allí. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Buen 4* pero en un barrio lamentable"
Es un hotel de 4* bueno pero en un barrio mas o menos pobre. Es mejor contratar un taxi privado en cairo ya que es recomendable evitar el chaos de ir a buscar uno por la calle. Las habitaciónes son grandes y limpias,es recomendable eligir una habitación que no da a la calle. (las vistas a las pyramides son pocas ya que el hotel esta un poco lejos. En […] general el hotel no esta mal por el precio. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
