I had the pleasure of staying for a few days at this charming guesthouse that overlooks the city of Giza, offering a stunning view of the pyramids. My room and the bathroom were spotless, the bed was incredibly comfortable, and the breakfast was great and varied. The staff provided a warm welcome at 2am, and I especially appreciated the assistance and attention I received from Ahmed, who speaks good English . Not to mention Françoise (from France) who stands out as the true heart of this place, taking great care of her guests and ensuring everything runs smoothly. Thank you very much;

We had fantastic 2 nights at Giza Pyramids View Guest House. Emad was very responsive even before check-in. I asked him via WhatsApp what kind of bath amenities would be provided, and h e replied promptly and gave me the answer: body soap and shampoo. Emad came down to the street to pick us up and dealt with my Uber driver who tried to charge us extra money. All of the guest house crews are gentle and honest, so that we could felt safe and secure. They were also great with kids, and played a lot with my two daughters. The room is spacious, clean and extremely affordable. Pyramids view from the room and two balcony are very beautiful, especially in the evening around sunset. Morning time can be too foggy to see the view, at least in the mid-December. Instead, we enjoyed watching cute kids having morning ceremony in the elementary school just next door.

As you can see from other reviews, only thing to keep in mind is water pressure of the shower, which is understandably not super strong for being on the 11th floor.

The staff were absolutely amazing, they helped us from the moment we arrived we couldn't have been happier with the friendly service they honestly mate the trip to Giza worth it! Very impressed we will be back next year, one of the staff helped me plan my engagement when we went to see the pyramids. It's a good price is you want local exposure this is what you'll get it's not a Hilton it has a really friendly hostile vibe but private and safe and the staff will do anything to make the stay really good and we were made to feel so welcome.

Giza is very loud anywhere you go this isn't the hotels fault the goverment play prayers every few hours on loid speakers everywhere it's a good culture experience but very noises to and English family.

The bed is really good and the staff were helpful. It was like a premium bed in the UK. Awesome views of the pyramids. There is cheap food nearby and plenty of shops to buy snacks and drinks. Very nice balcony.

I hurt myself in the shower and had a big bruise on my arm. The shower was not hot. I had two cold showers. the breakfast is a bit basic and premade not cooked and made freshly. Could have arranged more affordable day trips to Sakkara or Deshum

I loved my short stay at the Giza Pyramids Guest House. The staff were amazing! Really made my trip for me. I booked tours with Ahmed who is great and visited the pyramids, quad biking as well as camel riding. The food was really nice and I enjoyed an Egyptian Starbucks to start the day! It’s a very lively place. Something always going on. Was such a fun time!

ALL of the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. I probably would have changed locations if it wasn't for them. The room was clean. View is amazing

Didn't know it was hostel and was not comfortable with that. Very hard to find, the address listed sends you to the wrong road. Area is not safe. Photos and description are not accurate.

Giza Pyramids View Guesthouse exceeded our expectations. It was spacious and soooo clean. This was really noticed and appreciated compared to other places we stayed in Egypt. It was a little further from the pyramids than some others, but you could easily walk. It had the most amazing views (as the name suggests). Just make sure you have the exact name and address handy for the taxi driver. You may end up dropped off at a very similar sounding guesthouse. I would definitely stay here again (and again and again….).

Nothing at all. But if I had to suggest a slight improvement. Larger towels and a kettle in the room (but everywhere we stayed in Egypt didn’t have this).

We were thrilled with our pyramid view room at this exceptional guest house. The family that runs it are extremely obliging and professional at providing everything a guest may need. We had them change our money and they got an excellent rate for us. The breakfast was also very good — probably the best tasting fresh-made felafel we had in Egypt (lots of coriander). One of the sons took some fabulous photos for us from the balcony at sunset. Waking up to the view of the pyramid peaks in the pastel light of dawn right from our room was unforgettable, but equally we enjoyed the social space and similar view on the communal balcony. We ordered supper our first night to eat out there (barbecue chicken, hawawshi, kofta, rice pudding and Turkish coffee — all excellent) while watching the sunset — the evening call to prayer sounding from all over the city — followed by the pyramids’ sound and light show. Probably we should have done this the second night too as walking the surrounding streets, while safe enough, is not that pleasant (busy, littered and mostly koshary houses and sheesha cafes with Arabic only menus — not many restaurants with more varied fare). The guest house is in an apartment building on the 11th floor and is thankfully served by a lift. Finding it and gaining access was a bit of a challenge initially. Be sure to get precise instructions for where to go once inside the building. The beds were comfortable, the shower was great, the wifi serviceable and everything very clean and quiet enough for sleeping. The only disappointment was perhaps the towel which was not the luxurious Egyptian cotton the country is famed for. We booked two nights at the Giza View guesthouse and two nights at another place in Cairo which was more proximate for the other things we wanted to see in the capital, but once we got to the Giza View we didn’t want to leave! And we can’t wait to go back!! Highly, highly recommended!

Loved the view of the pyramids from the property and the hospitality of the host. The host Mr. Emaad was very welcoming. He arranged for transport from the airport for a very reasonable amount. The driver waited patiently in the airport though our flight was delayed by a couple of hours. Because we used the arranged transport, we didn't have trouble finding the property. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. It was lovely to see the pyramids from the bed. The property had free wifi too :) The staff were very helpful. Upon request, Mr.Emaad arranged a vegetarian dinner for us. He also booked us on a lovely day sightseeing trip. The Egypt holiday couldn't have started better. Would love to come back!

The customer service from Ahmed, Francois and the rest of the team was exceptional! Our room was lovely - clean, comfortable, spacious and spectacular view. Ahmed made us feel so welcomed and so safe! I would definitely stay here again next time I'm in Cairo.
