It was a quick trip, and I did not focus on all the details, but overall, the hotel is cozy and suitable, and the room was convenient for me with a Nile view. The staff was very good and friendly. I think this place deserves a longer trip to enjoy it.

Excellent hotel with the best location, as it is very central and you have everything nearby. We had the room with a view of the Nile, and it was spotless. Additionally, you have a fridge and air conditioning. The bathroom was reasonable, and the water had good pressure. The internet also works well, and the staff were kind and friendly, especially the receptionist. Overall good experience

A wonderful stay with a caring professional staff. The location is also amazing, walking distance to the Egyptian Museum, and Tahrir Square.

It's been a great experience at the ISIS Hotel. I think it is a convenient place in downtown, not a large place, but it introduces good service for that money. I recommend it to everyone.

Great gem in a kind neighborhood.
Amazing location right next to everything. Wonderful neighborhood with the kindest people you could ever possibly meet. The area can look a little rough on the outside but the inside of the building was nice enough. Everything was clean and comfortable and the views from the 15th floor at sunset were Amazing. Check in was super easy. The hotel staff were very nice checking us in, showing us to our room and chatting with us when we were in the lobby.

Cheap, Clean and Friendly
We arrived, went to the 15th floor and found the reception. Parking was a circus, was fun to watch. We got pleasantly upgraded to the family room, with 90degrees view of the city centre.. Ali and his team were nice. you have to give the keys to reception when you leave on your tour. Water is not complimentary. 5LE each bottle. Breakfast is very basic. Bread cheese and coffee/tea. We extended and stayed two nights instead of one. When we were leaving. The parking team did not ask for a tip (like everyone in Egypt), but wanted to charge us for the parking even though the booking was with FREE parking. That was one of the things I look for in finding a room, as we have a car. Ali from reception came down and sorted it out and we were able to move our car. Ali and the team,Thank you for your hospitality, it was great to stay with you.
