Hotel Novotel Cairo El Borg

Overall good spacious rooms, good breakfast spread and a nice pool area and we would have had a great trip only if it had thinner pillows. Unfortunately the hotel only had one type of pillows and they were quite thick and difficult for us to sleep comfortably and that spoilt a bit of the experience. That's the reason to cut one star from amenities. We had a great city view room and picture shows the view with the cairo tower .

Very kind staff. Breakfast good. Great location. Great view from room of the Nile.

The location was perfect!! Travel desk at the hotel was really helpful in arranging the cab services for Coptic and Islamic Cairo sightseeing.. The hotel upgraded our room from city view to nile view, which was very generous.. Breakfast buffet spread was good and the service was top level.. Cons: Swimming pool timings should be longer atleast till 8pm in the evening..

The hotel has guest laundry, laundry onsite and offsite all listed, but this isn’t true. They only have offsite laundry per item that is expensive compared to the price of the nightly stay. Trip.com and the hotel have yet to update this.

Hotel is nearby to Qasr El Nile. One of the most affordable hotel compared to the rest sitting on Nile River. Room is nice with Cairo Tower view. But the wifi connection in room is very poor, same with room service, no one answered the calls, either it was purposely disconnected (wasnt sure about this) or the phone picked up and left unanswered (you literally could hear the staffs talking and laughing on the background).

Clean hotel, staff very attentive, always smiling and very helpful. Location is perfect away from hustle of Cairo… yet not far from Cairos attractions. Had meal on roof top was ok, alittle pricy thou. Would book again without hesitation.
