"This is certainly the best value for money in Zamalek, and possibly in Cairo." Full review
Insight Guides
"A well-kept secret among those who visit Cairo often, the Longchamps feels more like a Parisian private house than a hotel, and is well managed by the helpful Heba Bakri and her husband Chris."
Fodor's
"This lovely little bed-and-breakfast-style hotel is on the upper floors of a medium-sized tower block, offering a quiet refuge from the city." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"With only 22 rooms, the Longchamps tends to be booked weeks in advance. It’s a homely hotel with good, clean rooms and a fine restaurant, and there are plenty of shops and restaurants nearby."
Rough Guide
Star
"Spotless, quiet and well-run three-star hotel with a/c, satellite TV, internet connection and a fridge in all rooms, plus a pleasant terrace and meals available."

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
