DK Eyewitness "This is one of the few hotels in the heart of medieval Cairo. Rooms are very basic, although they include a fridge and some have air conditioning."
Rough Guide "Rather grimy, and rooms overlooking the square are harangued by Cairo’s loudest muezzins, and festivals are celebrated all night long in Midan al-Hussein, just outside."

Insight Guides "With its wood panelling, spaciousness and ceiling fans, the Carlton has an Old-World feel."
Rough Guide "A pleasantly creaky old hotel, once quite swanky, built in 1935 and still retaining some wood-panelled period charm, albeit rather worn."
Lonely Planet "If you get one of the renovated (‘class A’) rooms, this is a gem with a whiff of yesteryear... If you get stuck with an old room, it’s not worth half the price." Full review
