This place is an absolute joke, we stayed here for three nights and there is a mini bar in the fridge however there was no menu in the room that was visible or easily accessible to prove that we had to pay for water etc nor was it in English. you can’t even drink the water in Egypt so this should be free especially for this kind of hotel where is a necessity. Over the course of the three days we ended up having to pay 317 USD for water two chips chocolate and nuts…. When I confronted the manager or the supervisor they directed us to the room and showed us where the menu was which was non-visible and it was face down tucked in a place where nobody would check. Really sad customer service and made our experience in Egypt terrible. This was really unprofessional and how he handled it as he stated that it was my fault I didn’t speak Arabic nor can I read it. If you want to spend US$317 on water and chips please go here or feel incompetent because you can’t speak Arabic please go here.

Dear Esteemed Guest, Allow me to sincerely apologize to your goodself for failing to meet your expectations with regard to some points of your stay, whilst at the same time I thank you for taking the time to bring this issue to our attention to allow us to reexplained that the hotel’s duty manager explained to your goodself on your departure date. It is genuinely known that the hotel’s guests are asked to pay their Mini Bar consumption and it is needless to say that in Sofitel we provide four bottles of Mineral water free of charge two were placed in the room and two were placed in the Bathroom. I do hope that we will have the opportunity once again to serve you in the very near future. Cordially; Iman El Gabaly Guest Experience Manager

Das Hotel ist an guter Lage mit schöner Sicht auf den Nil. Das Personal war freundlich und zuvorkommend. Einzig war der Kaffee extrem teuer (ca. 100 Ähyptische Pfund für eine Tasse). Dazu kamen Gebäck, welche wir nicht besteölt haben aber bezahlen mussten. Im Ganzen aber angenehmer Aufenthalt. Ich komme wieder.

Bel hôtel avec un cadre incroyable. Ne pas y aller le week-end (en Égypte le week-end c'est le vendredi et samedi) car il y a une forte affluence notamment à la piscine. On se serait crû à la station Châtelet-Les-Halles un samedi. Autre bémol, les chambres sont vraiment viellotes !

Food was all-around terrible. Dreadful, cold club-sandwich in a Tesco quality. The "shakshuka" they have on the menu had nothing to do with an actual shakshuka, they just served scrambled egg with tomato. Embarassing for the price and the Sofitel brand.

Hotel mal conçu pour l'hiver. Il y fait froid, pas de chauffage et on est toujours dans des courants d'air, spécialement dans le magnifique salon du lobby ouvert à tous vents. Pour le reste, tout était parfait, situation, personnel,propreté. On recommande plutôt le Resto kebab avec leurs spécialités. Les autres restos ne sont pas très bons. Mais c'est probablement pareil dans d'autres établissements.
