Delightful location with a rich historical ambiance. It would be wonderful to learn more about the building's history; unfortunately, no one I've asked seems to have that information. The staff, particularly the receptionist Islam, was incredibly helpful. He handled all our requests with utmost care and professionalism.

Guys you have more care & clean entrance and downstairs floors, please

The building where the hotel is located is an old building with not a nice entrance but the hotel is located with separate entrance at the 3rd floor is very nice . Will decorated, clean and big rooms and perfect wc / shower. The reception is 24 hours open with great personal. Mr. Karim with a friendly manner is great ! The other 3 persons Ali , Mariam and Islam are all trying their best. On the other hand the location of the hotel is nice. Direct in downtown. 1 to 3 minutes walk to any required shopping or 15 minutes walk to Nile river!

The room was very clean, everything looked like in the photos. There was enough space and the toilet was clean as well. For this price, I was happy with what I got. The staff were very helpful and a big thank you to Ali and Karim who gave me tips for my excursions and really treated me very kindly and hospitably. They were always available for a good chat and good conversation 👍🏾

The elevator didn‘t work and the way up to the hotel was a little bit run down but when you enter on the Hotel on the 3. floor, it‘s very clean and you feel comfortable.

The rooms are spacious and the beds comfortable. The facilities are clean with plenty of hot water. All the staff are very helpful. They even arranged for us to move to a quieter room at the back of the hotel, because those overlooking the street have traffic noise. As everybody notes, the entrance of the building is very scruffy and there is no lift. However, once you climb up the stairs to the hotel, everything is fine. The location is extremely good, with nearly all centred Cairo within walking distance.

I think this is the best hotel we stayed at during my time in Egypt. No hassle, no harassment to trick travelers, no being treated like a tourist. The staff are friendly and sincere, especially Ali, who is very nice and kind to help us just like a friend. The location is superb. The room is clean, and the bed is comfy.

The stairs to the hotel were kinda scary at first, but I guess this is not their responsibility.

Clean hotel in great location. Other reviewers already pointed out the fact that to get there you’ll need to go through gritty little side street and three flights of stairs with broken lift. It is a mild inconvenience for the good value you are getting. Picture of the side street you need to turn into attached, hope that helps. On the way there you might encounter little cats, we thought it only added to the charm. This old building has a lot of character. Staff at the hotel are friendly and polite and the location is unbeatable.

On the beds there’s only a bedsheet with pillow and blankets in the wardrobe. No extra bedsheets to cover yourself with. We asked for those and they were immediately provided.

I recently stayed at the Gresham Hotel with my family and had a wonderful experience. The hotel is located in the downtown area, making it a convenient base for exploring the city. Additionally, the hotel offers excellent value for money, with very reasonable prices for the high-quality room and service. I would like to give a special thank you to staff members Islam and Husam, who both provided exceptional service during our stay. Islam helped us carry our luggage and was incredibly responsive to our needs, while Husam was supportive and friendly in helping us find a room that suited our budget and offered help whenever needed. Overall, I highly recommend the Gresham Hotel for families looking for a convenient location, excellent value for money, comfortable rooms, and outstanding service. Thank you to the entire team, especially Islam and Husam, for making our stay so memorable!

It's located in an old Cairo tenement house, so the gate, corridor and elevator look terrible, but most buildings in Cairo city center look like. You may probably feel a little uncomfortable, if you would back to hotel at night. Lift does't work. But the hotel on the second floor is in another world: stylish. The staff is very helpful 24/7. Rooms are clean (we stayed twice), are already renovated, air-condition was new too.

The interior of this hotel looks nicer than the photos. This hotel is pristine, spacious, quiet and very comfortable. The bathroom has a big shower and hot water. The design and decor in the sitting areas are minimal and quite tasteful. Miriam and other staff are very helpful and kind. I highly recommend this property!

Outstanding location at the centre of Downtown Cairo.It is a clean, modern and very authentically Egyptian hotel.The staff are lovely and there is a good standard of English spoken which means communication is easy. Definitely stay here if you can....and don't be put off by what you read about the entrance to the hotel......most comments are accurate and fair but don't be put off...... it's a great place to stay

I am just going to repeat what many others have said But do not let anything I say put you off staying here. The little side road the entrance is situated on is really grotty, and there are usually a number of scruffy workmen hanging around in front of the hotel.The actual entrance is equally dirty and off-putting. You turn left before a broken lift and have to walk up three flights of stairs. These are also dirty, litter- strewn, and you will probably see flea infested cats. On the two floors you pass you will come across men who are working in the other "units" within the building However......it is actually all perfectly safe and when you get to the hotel you will be amazed at how lovely the hotel is.
