Fodor's "Hidden away above the Gattegno department store, this small, shoestring-budget pension is adored by students and backpackers." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Usually booked solid, the Roma has an oldworld elegance and is well maintained. Rooms vary and some are enormous, but few have air conditioning."

From $0/night
Lonely Planet "This pension is untouched by time – not great in some ways (rooms could use a fresh coat of paint), but a boon in others, such as the gentlemanly staff." Full review
DK Eyewitness "A little run-down (although clean), this remains one of Cairo’s best budget options thanks to its friendly and helpful staff."
