"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."
"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."

"The rooms don’t quite match the upmarket lobby, but the President’s still a good-value mid-range option."
"Although located some distance from the main sights, the backstreets of Zamalek are lively with plenty of good cafés, bars and restaurants."
"There is a good top-floor bar and a very tasty patisserie in the lobby, which supplies the breakfasts." Full review
