It's very near the hotel and it's about a 15-20 minutes drive from this hotel to downtown and Khan al khalili
The rooms are very nice and big, i would say. There's a 24 hr money changer and the pool looks great. I didn't have a chance to swim in it, what a pity.
Due to overbookings, we got free upgrade to a suite. That was sweet ! Services were excellent and room is clean and comfortable. However, there was not much to see near the hotel in walking distance.
Well, the looks on web can be utterly contrasting, especially with regard to this hotel its quite true. The website states so much and when you really are there, the one thing you find is it's overrated by about 2 stars.
I was there for about 2 weeks recently and faced following: 1. The service is quite near to rubbish. The rooms are not cleaned half the time and you have to call room service. 2. They didn't change my bathrob for a week (can you believe it?)... 3. The entertainment service is poor. 4. The pool sometimes if full of water however, the water doesn't seem chlorinated. Of the 2 weeks I saw it full for only 1 day. 5. The gym is suffocating to be precise. 6. The food quality is quite inconsistent and the staff is just looking for tips u can feel. 7. Last but not the least, THE BREAKFAST. Well, half the time they don't even have brown bread so what more can you expect.
