Boasting a garden, terrace and views of pool, Villa Layla is situated in Cairo, 1.9 km from Mosque of Ibn Tulun. The property is around 1.2 km from Tahrir Square, 1.6 km from The Egyptian Museum and 3 km from Cairo Tower. The accommodation features a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, a shared kitchen and free WiFi.

At the hostel, each room comes with a wardrobe. The rooms come with air conditioning, and some units at Villa Layla have a balcony. All rooms will provide guests with a fridge. It feels wrong to call this place a hostel. Villa Layla is something truly special! As a female solo traveler who’s been to over 60 countries, I’ve seen many places, but nothing quite like this. Villa Layla is more like a beautiful, charming mansion where every little detail is done with love and great taste. Berar, the amazing owner, and his lovely team make you feel like a VIP guest at a five-star hotel. The atmosphere is cozy, elegant, and full of heart. I’m currently traveling around Egypt, and I keep recommending Villa Layla to everyone I meet, I want others to feel this magic too. Honestly, I’m now thinking of changing my travel plans just so I can come back and spend one more night there before my flight. That’s how much I loved it. Don’t miss out! this place is unforgettable!

Pyramids Glory Inn has free bikes, garden, a shared lounge and terrace in Cairo. Boasting a bar, the hostel is close to several noted attractions, around 500 metres from Great Sphinx and around 1.5 km from Giza Pyramids. The accommodation offers an ATM, a concierge service and currency exchange for guests. Staff are very helpful, accommodating, and nice! They can help you get uber if you are having issues with booking. Location is perfect. Less than 5min walk to the Pyramids Entrance/ Ticket counter. I got a great room with a direct view of the pyramids. Super nice! I can see the pyramids from the bed overlooking the balcony. There’s free water, coffee, and tea and sugar in the room. Rooftop was a great spot to see the pyramids as well. And they give you a big, hearty, breakfast. The bed was so comfortable as well. I slept really well. It was also quiet. AC works well. The door is very sturdy. Good supply of water. There is hot water in the shower. They provide shampoo and body wash and hand wash. There are towels as well. But the shower stall is quite small though (because the sliding door is limiting the space a bit) so could be an issue for others but works well for me as I am petite.
