We got great value for our money at Isis Hostel 2. The room was spacious with amazing views of the city and river. The location was perfect, very close to the Egyptian museum. The staff treated us with utmost friendliness and were always helpful and accommodating.
Breakfast offerings could be improved with better presentation, such as providing more plates for the bread rolls.

During my Christmas stay, I was pleasantly surprised by the key location of this hotel. It was conveniently situated near the train station and central to everything I wanted to explore. The staff were extremely friendly and always ready to help with any requests I had. Additionally, the included breakfast was delicious and gave me a great start to my day of adventures.
While my stay at this hotel was mostly enjoyable, I did notice that the bedsheets could have been cleaner. However, this was only a minor issue and did not overshadow the overall positive experience I had.

The staff at this hostel were incredibly friendly and accommodating. They went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. The location of the hotel was also excellent, with easy access to key attractions and transportation options. Additionally, the view from the room was absolutely amazing, offering a unique perspective of the city.
One minor issue we encountered was with the shower curtain in our bathroom. It was a bit old and moldy and could use a replacement.

The location of the hotel is perfect, right in the heart of downtown and very near to the Egyptian museum. The rooms were decent enough with good water pressure in the bathroom. The staff was friendly and helpful, providing extra food for breakfast and even a free ride to the pyramids and the airport. There were also facilities like free laundry and wifi in the rooms.
The cleanliness of the bedsheets could have been better.

We loved the convenient location near the Egyptian Museum and Tahrir Square, surrounded by little shops and places to eat. The free pick-up from the airport was a great added perk for those traveling by car. The staff, including Mahmoud, Abdulaziz, Ali at the reception, OM Khaled, Amanda. The breathtaking view from our room on the 15th floor, overlooking the Nile, was truly amazing. The hotel provided wifi in the rooms and a delicious breakfast was included with our stay.
Felt like a home away from home, no reason to complain.

Located in the heart of downtown, this hotel is just a stone's throw away from the Egyptian museum. Guests can enjoy stunning views of the Nile from certain rooms. The staff is friendly and provides excellent service, including a free car service upon arrival. The spacious rooms and bathrooms are well-maintained, with some even offering different city and river views. Guests can start their day with a delicious breakfast included in the stay.
One downside is that finding an ATM for cash can be challenging, as this hotel only accepts cash payments.

We were grateful for their assistance and hospitality. The room, although not pristine, was clean enough and comfortable for our stay. The free laundry service was a pleasant surprise and saved us a lot of hassle. The water pressure in the bathroom was also good, ensuring a refreshing shower. We were overall satisfied with our stay at Isis Hostel 2 and would recommend it to others seeking budget accommodation in Cairo.
I would recommend this hotel due to its great view, convenient location, and friendly staff. Although there were some minor drawbacks, they did not significantly impact our overall enjoyment of the stay.
