Rough Guide
"Small city-centre hotel with high-ceilinged double and triple rooms, each with its own shower, a/c and comfortable mattresses."
Lonely Planet
"Pleasantly old-fashioned and very low on pressure tactics... Most of the 11 colour-saturated rooms (green! pink!) have air-con and private showers (but shared toilets)... Good long-stay rates." Full review
Garden City House
26 Kamal Al-Din Salah, Cairo, Egypt
From $0/night
Lonely Planet
"This pension is untouched by time – not great in some ways (rooms could use a fresh coat of paint), but a boon in others, such as the gentlemanly staff." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"A little run-down (although clean), this remains one of Cairo’s best budget options thanks to its friendly and helpful staff."
Rough Guide
"1930s pension on the edge of the Garden City, behind the Semiramis and popular with impecunious Egyptologists."
