DK Eyewitness
"The Talisman’s rooms are decorated in rich colours, while common areas are filled with examples of Egyptian arts and crafts. It’s a stunning hotel in a great location."
Rough Guide
"Well-situated boutique hotel with some five-star facilities (a/c, satellite TV, minibar, safe) but no pool or fitness centre."
Lonely Planet
"The boutique Talisman has great style – jewel-tone rooms with a dash of Oriental kitsch – but its rooms aren’t as well kept as they ought to be." Full review

Lonely Planet
"A decent midrange option about halfway between Downtown and the Giza Plateau, the Swiss Inn is a... fairly comfortable spot for anyone needing an affordable yet modern base in this part of town."
Fodor's
"Everything is clean and modern, with tile and marble in the public spaces and the rooms, but the atmosphere is more appropriate to an upmarket motel rather than a full-service hotel." Full review
