My stay at the Hyatt Regency has been an excellent experience. The property combines comfort, elegance, and convenience perfectly. I especially appreciate the spacious rooms, high level of cleanliness, and the welcoming attitude of the staff. The facilities — from the restaurants to the pool and gym — make it easy to enjoy everything without leaving the hotel.

- wide variety of savoury and sweet items at the buffet breakfast, including a section for vegan and gluten-free - the gift shop at the hotel is fabulous for picking up quality, authentic souvenirs -- Mina was so helpful and friendly - we were very happy to have met him; he was the highlight of this hotel for us! - the rainfall shower was nice - good water pressure and hot water - as first time visitors to Cairo, the explosive dog circling the vehicle, having to provide ID and having the trunk checked before being allowed to approach the front door of the hotel, and then having all bags go through the X-ray machine inside the front door was a bit shocking, but it did help me feel safer overall.

We stayed at the hotel for 2 nights to visit the pyramids. It's a family-friendly hotel, and the welcome was warm and inviting. The breakfast was excellent and varied each day. A bonus: you can enjoy your meal while admiring the stunning view of the pyramids. There are plenty of restaurants around the area to choose from, and there's always someone available to assist you when needed. A special thank you to Lala (I hope I spelled his name right!) who welcomed us late at night with a big smile and was always there to help us navigate during our stay. Keep up the great work

    Very good location and safe lifts. The entrance to the hotel is clean and welcoming. I came early and they gave us an early checking-in because of it. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were very clean and the beds were comfortable and big. The area was good and the rooms were sound-proof. Ac units worked well and wifi was also stable. The breakfast was very nice, and when we requested an omelette, extra bread and tea they provided us with them. Very safe location with lots of cheap food stores, coffee shops and restaurants.

    The location was ideal to get to the museum and other tourist attractions. The room was very clean and comfortable but the best thing about the stay though was the staff. We arrived early and Andrew on the desk was very welcoming and allowed us to leave our bags whilst we visited the pyramids.
