"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

DK Eyewitness
"A hotel for the truly budget-conscious, the Lotus dates from 1950, as is still reflected by the mattresses."
Rough Guide
"Its claim to have “an authentic Art Deco ambience” is a slight exaggeration, though one or two of the fittings do seem to date from the 1930s, and the rooms are suitably sombre."
Lonely Planet
"A 1950s concrete monolith with some surprising art deco flourishes strewn about. Rooms are a bit on the dingy side, and have certainly seen brighter decades." Full review
