Frommer's "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."

"The old-European-style Hotel Longchamps has a residential feel." Full review
El Hussein Hotel DK Eyewitness Rough Guide
Taha Hussein, Khan Al-Khalili, Cairo, Egypt
From $0/night
- Laundry Service
- Restaurant
- Air Conditioning
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."
