    I had the pleasure of staying for a few days at this charming guesthouse that overlooks the city of Giza, offering a stunning view of the pyramids. My room and the bathroom were spotless, the bed was incredibly comfortable, and the breakfast was great and varied. The staff provided a warm welcome at 2am, and I especially appreciated the assistance and attention I received from Ahmed, who speaks good English . Not to mention Françoise (from France) who stands out as the true heart of this place, taking great care of her guests and ensuring everything runs smoothly. Thank you very much;

    I hurt myself in the shower and had a big bruise on my arm. The shower was not hot. I had two cold showers. the breakfast is a bit basic and premade not cooked and made freshly. Could have arranged more affordable day trips to Sakkara or Deshum

    The bed is really good and the staff were helpful. It was like a premium bed in the UK. Awesome views of the pyramids. There is cheap food nearby and plenty of shops to buy snacks and drinks. Very nice balcony.

    A good budget choice. I had the feeling that they were new to the business and still working it out.

    The toiletries were half used and when the room was cleaned (once in the week), the bins weren't emptied. Almost everything required an extra payment - water, coffee, etc. The breakfast was good but got smaller each day (if we didn't eat something or said we didn't like it, it was removed but not replaced).

    Great location, walking distance to the pyramids and sphinx. Great view. Staff organised activities for us and were generally very helpful. Very cheap. This was an emergency booking for us, as our previous one was cancelled the night before our arrival, so I do have to say it's not what we were wanting. That said, we did enjoy our stay.

    In a town smothered in scams, on a budget, most honest affordable hotel in Giza!!!!

    They did show a different side with another guest from India. He accidentally burned a towel on the heater. They were tiny little towels that maybe cost 1 USD and they all harassed him to pay $30USD and made him feel unsafe. We booked this based on honesty so that was disheartening. That said, we had a wonderful respite for a perfectly affordable room that hade nice enough beds and hot water and a super kind staff. We met the owner and he was kind and friendly too. Overall, if they stay totally honest, they should always be full here as Giza is a bit of a struggle if you are trying to find some budget friendly places. They served breakfast and tea and never hustled us at all. We only saw that through another guest so all we can say is THANK YOU for being so honest and easy.

    We are two Americans who traveled all of Egypt. Giza is unfortunately in a state of numerous hotel scams. The top tier are fine but if you are on a budget, be ready. They change the names, fill websites with fake reviews to hide the truthful ones in order to get US dollars. It's not their fault, it is who we are right now. That said, after navigating so many scams, this place was honest. It does have a nice view of the Pyramids and is affordable. If you are used to western amenities, you would need to scale that down and appreciate the cost. The staff was lovely and kind, the room was easy, it was all easy. You could probably walk to the Pyramids in about 20 minutes but Uber is awesome for travelers in Egypt. Our highest review is that we were on a budget and they were honest. That is amazing in Giza. For their honesty, they are literally one of the best affordable options in all of Giza, no joke, we did the leg work.

    It's probably a common problem here, but keep in mind that the city is very noisy even at night. The soundproofing of the room is terrible, so you can hear everything going on the street (honking, loud singing lesson from the neighboring school early morning, etc), and many times the guests in the hall and the other rooms. It was a bit chilly for us in the room, but you get warm covers. The breakfast was nice, but it was the same every morning.

    Helpful hosts, big room with comfortable bed. Very nice view. Very interesting neighborhood, if you'd like to explore the less touristy part of Cairo.

    In the evening, the staff chat until late, and it is very loud after 12 o 'clock, and the rooms on the block are noisy. The location of the hotel did not tell me which floor the hotel is on in the building, I need to call to confirm.

    Good hygiene, 15 minutes walk from the pyramids, bad breakfast coffee, friendly staff

    Nothing at all. But if I had to suggest a slight improvement. Larger towels and a kettle in the room (but everywhere we stayed in Egypt didn’t have this).

    Giza Pyramids View Guesthouse exceeded our expectations. It was spacious and soooo clean. This was really noticed and appreciated compared to other places we stayed in Egypt. It was a little further from the pyramids than some others, but you could easily walk. It had the most amazing views (as the name suggests). Just make sure you have the exact name and address handy for the taxi driver. You may end up dropped off at a very similar sounding guesthouse. I would definitely stay here again (and again and again….).

    Needed some plastic/foil curtain in the bathroom, because after shower all space is vet. You cannot use the elevator, if somebody from the staff is not there (some additional secure). You have to call/text/whatsup them, so they can pick you up or go down with you ;)

    Good place for you to stay, with the pretty view to pyramids. Very clean and quiet (inside the hotel). Outside big traffic almost all day and night, but like everywhere in Cairo. Very friendly and helpful staff:) Assisted during our late check in and early leaving. Tasty breakfast and tea/coffee included.
