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

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
