Insight Guides "Cairo’s first boutique has 24 spacious, stylish and individually decorated rooms."
Fodor's "This is an oasis of calm in the middle of Downtown."
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

Fodor's "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
