The hotel had comfortable rooms but unfortunately had a strong smoke smell upon arrival; however, they were cozy once settled. The service varied from unhelpful to helpful depending on the staff member. The location was convenient near the Cairo Museum but lacked straightforward communication.

The hotel is situated on an island in the middle of the Nile River, offering a unique and tranquil oasis in the busy city of Cairo. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, although noise from the bustling surrounding area can be heard during the early evening hours. The service provided, with standout staff members like Marwa and Ahmed, is genuinely helpful and ensures a warm and welcoming stay. The location in the Zamalek District affords easy access to charming cafes and restaurants, with Miss Shimaa's friendly presence at breakfast being a delightful touch. The dining experience, while offering a variety of selections, may fall short in taste and organization.
