Saudi ArabiaThe view exceeded my expectations. The location, although not central was still excellent. The room was also great. The staff anticipated your needs when necessary. I have stayed in a Sofitel before, but this one will be hard to beat.
United States of AmericaAll great experience.. The staff were very helpful
EgyptThis hotel is in the most prime location in Cairo. Right by the Egyptian Museum, not far from the airport, and not far from the Pyramids. It is on a peninsula right on the Nile and is very peaceful. It is a great place to get away from the hustle and bustle of Cairo. We would 100% stay here again. The food is amazing as they have like 6 restaurants all serving different great cuisine. The breakfast is the best hotel breakfast I have ever had. It is a buffet and has everything you could ever want. The staff was great. Thank you!!
