Fodor's "Rooms are comfortably fitted with heavy wooden period-style furniture that gives the place the breezy, slightly creaky feel of a Somerset Maugham story about life in the colonies." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Almost nothing has been changed since the 1950s at Cairo’s most authentic period hotel – not so great perhaps when it comes to its plumbing and spartan furnishings, but this hotel is loved for its colonial air."
Rough Guide "This colonial hotel retains much character and is home to one of the nicest bars in Cairo."
Lonely Planet "With the beautifully maintained elevator, worn stone stairs and a hotel restaurant where the dinner bell chimes every evening at 7.30pm, the place is hard for nostalgia buffs to resist." Full review

Frommer's "The food at the Terrace is mediocre, but it's a favorite lounging spot for Egypt's TV and movie glitterati and enjoys a steady clientele of those who want to see and be seen." Full review
Concierge "With 1,089 rooms, this Marriott on the Nile island of Zamalek is Cairo's largest hotel."
DK Eyewitness "The former palace has undergone a great deal of change but it still boasts some glorious public spaces and the nicest garden in town."
Rough Guide "A classy five-star where you can choose between garden rooms or slightly pricier tower rooms with a better view."
Fodor's "The centerpiece of this large hotel is a breathtaking palace built by Khedive Isma'il to give French Empress Eugénie a suitable place to stay on her visit for the opening of the Suez Canal." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler84.0
