Not a nice Hotel
Extremely worn out building. Paint etc peeling from walls. Wood floors were very worn. Would not stay there again. On the bright side the staff was extremely helpful in meeting me at the Giza train station and transporting me to the hotel.

Hotel am Puls der Stadt
Das Hotel liegt im 8. Stock eines recht unscheinbaren, auch etwas renovierungsbedürftigen Hochhauses.
Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Zimmer waren ok, aber unter sauber verstehen Europäer etwas anderes. Toll war die eigene Dachterasse mit Blick auf die Stadt und tollem Sonnenuntergang.
Besonders toll war der Fahrer/Guide des Hotels. Ich würde jederzeit wieder Ägypten mit Mohamed (genannt Memo) entdecken!

La récompense
Hôtel médiocre situé au 8 em étage d'une immuable ( avec ascenseur ) de centre ville, l’accès est facile, si cet hôtel est à paris il n'aurai aucune étoile, heureusement l’accueil chaleureux et la sympathie de personnels récompense tous le reste.

Okay hotel with great staff
Over, a mixed bag.
Mohamed really makes the hotel and he was hospitable, helpful, and very informative. We also had a long conversation about Egyptian politics.
However, the hotel was hard to find and if Mohamed is not there, no one can speak English. The bathroom and room cleanliness left some to be desired.

Very good location
Cairo is really safe now. This is my first time in Cairo. The crowd city and creasy drivers made me feel nervous at first, but the nice people made me feel very good in the following days. Although a little old, the hotel location is very good, and the staff are really nice. It is a good choice in Cairo.

Top location, freindly staff
Cairo Moon hotel is very good value for money . Mr Raoof (driver, guide) is bright and trustworthy. I feel safe with him during trips in Cairo . He picked me for free from airport at 03:00 AM. Staff (Mohamad, Ibrahim) are very friendly and helpful in advising me and in organizing day trips . Rooms are large and clean with AC, TV and satellite . WIFI is free and available in my room . You can take breakfast at any time you wake up. Tea or coffee are free. The hotel has top location. It is not far from Tahreer Square, Nile river , Egypt museum , Khan Alkhalily and Ramsses Rail station.

Budget Hotel with 5 start service
The hotel owner Mr. Mohamed makes sure that you are at home when staying in this hotel. Located in the heart of Cairo and in close proximity to eating joints. Fabulous breakfast, free interest, welcoming staff... What else could I have asked for. Had a v comforting stay with my wife and a small child.

Cairo Moon is good value for money
Not the best hotel for comfort but everything is balanced when you get the personal touch and hospitality of Mohamed and Ibrahim. They will make it up to you with helpful and accomodating service. But the rooms are not upto standard of three stars. I would recommend anyone to this hotel also for it's location.

Cairo Moon sojourn.
My stay here was good, I felt as if it was home. The staff were friendly and helpful. Mohamed couldn't have been more helpful in arranging tours for me. He was a godsend.it would have been very difficult otherwise. I thoroughly recommend this hotel.

Cairo at its best
Staying in Cairo Moon Hotel offers you Cairo at its best. it's close to all must-see place. Great staff- all are very chatty, very friendly and helpful. Expect clean rooms, with clean sheets, en-suite bathrooms (mostly), air conditioning and TVs, what more could you want? if you are on a limited budget, free access to internet and unlimited tea all day were a nice benefit. Would definitely go again and recommend to friends.

Séjour inoubliable, hôtel très recommandé!
Hotel très bien situé, propre, très bon rapport qualité prix. Personnel très chaleureux surtout Ahmed et toujours disponible à n'importe quelle heure. Mohamed, le directeur de l'hôtel est très gentil,souriant et toujours prêt à vous aider. Ne pas hésiter à lui demander si vous avez besoin de quoique ce soit. Nous étions en famille(4) et nous recommandons vivement cet hôtel, vous ne serez pas déçu ! Vous en gaderez un très bon souvenir.

Not a very good choice
Wanted to have the Hotel in the downtown, that is why I booked this hotel, the Rooms and service was not upto the price I paid for, a little AC in a big room, a very so so break fast only including boiled eggs, butter/Jam and bread, no Room fridge available and the Hotel on the eight floor. This was not what I was looking for.

toplocatie
Zeer eenvoudig hotel op perfecte locatie in Cairo.
Voor Egyptische maatstaven redelijk schoon.
Niet goed onderhouden. Alles wordt echter goedgemaakt door het vriendelijke, behulpzame personeel en de locatie
