"Built in 1939, the Grand is situated in the bustling heart of Downtown. The rooms are clean and its marbled bath rooms are divine, but most period fixtures have gone."

"Just over Tahrir Bridge in Gezira, this hotel is rather ugly on the outside but cool and stylish inside, with modern cream and beige rooms, plus deluxe accessories such as a/c and plasma TV."
