Cataract Pyramids Resort

Peace and quiet, although the hotel is getting old and is not these days a 5 star hotel, what do you expect for the price. The staff were efficient and friendly, the accommodation was good and clean and tidy.The food wes good and freshly prepeared.Locaton from a business point of view was a little out of the way but you could work in the room and get work done without the constant ear shattering horn blowing of down town Cairo. I would advise people to stay there and except that it is what it is and if you want real 5 star luxary go and pay $200.00 a night. I read the reviews before i went and thought most of the dislikes were from wingers, who wanted 200 buck accommodation for 50 bucks. Reccomended by me.

Flies and the DJ by the swimming pool not everyone wants 100 dbs blairing.internet was a problem although i have a dongle, but £75 LE an hour is unjustified, they might get more business people if the decided to offer it at a reasonable price. most Hotels offer the service free.

Due to the short period spent in the hotel, I can say "It is good for Relaxation "

I enjoyed the pool, buffet breakfast,, towel sculptues left on bed!

Some very slow service by staff at La Pergola and Being charged LE15 at cafe in reception area, for a cup of hot water and told that because hot water wasnt a choice on his till he would have to charge it as a cup of tea!

nice resort

when i checked in they allocate me a single room, that the next room has big maintenence and you can stay uncomofort at all due the big noise of the machines, after that they relocated me to another room

the hotel was generally clean and the rooms ok the pool was very large and clean and the food was generally good

The resort lacked polish and the rooms were dated and tired their was no proper information about the hotel and facilities.The food and drink was overpriced and the whole place needed a good clean that said the pool itself was clean but the pool surround was dirty and the sun loungers were filthy.

The stay was good but the hotel front desk was highly incompetent. I would not stay at this hotel again for that reason alone. They had no cohesive or reliable answer to most questions.

The female front desk employee gave me the wrong info about the shuttle bus---according to her it wasnt running and then it was so I almost missed it. I had to rush out of my room etc. This is just one example there were others. The music was way too loud every where in the reception, restaurant etc.

Not a UK five star by any standards but was a lot better than many of the reviews ii read online. Excellent value for money, $90 per day, for a family of five including breakfast. Large swimming pool. Rooms adequate and not coachroach infested as i had read elsewhere. problems with mosquitoes, but not excessive, so if you are prone to bites take the appropriate precautions. This is due to being located to a canal running of the nile and not a result of stagnant water in the hotel.

The pool was fantastic. Mostly helpful staff - some exceptionally pleasant and efficient. Food generally good.

Not all staff were as helpful. Bathrooms need updating. Sometimes the bread was stale.

Swimming pool was a plus. Also, the staff was very friendly.

Too many mosquitos- we had dinner at La Pergola but could not enjoy the food due to them.

The pool and the rooms were dirty and old

Location to pyramids was good

Terrible mosquito problem. We were not able to spend any time in the evenings outside because it was so bad. Our room was very shabby and run down. The website photos only show the new spacious rooms - not the old ones in the front part of the hotel.

The swimming pool

Broken window (rollers), dmaged safety box (not functioning), dirty water (bide)

Great service, lovely hotel, room service was great....gift shops and resturants on location....no problems at all.
