angenehm, freundlich, lebendig, abwechslungsreich und interessant

Liked:My two-week stay at the Philo Hotel over Christmas and New Year was very pleasant. The staff was always very friendly and responded to requests immediately. Staying in Cairo for the first time (as a single travelling woman) and arriving after midnight, I felt very safe and pleasant, thanks to the hotel: they booked me a driver who waited for me for over an hour (without complain) and took me safely to the hotel. Likewise, on departure, a driver was ordered to take me to the airport on request (even at short notice). The view from the terrace of my room, looking at a church and a mosque was very beautiful. The bed was large with a pleasantly firm mattress. Mirror and dressing table available. A small balcony and a big terrace with shutters and curtains so that you can darken the room during the day if necessary. A romantic lift/elevator with cast iron decorations in the stairwell. The location is very central, on Talaat Harb Square, just a few minutes' walk from the famous El Tahrir Square. If you want a more quiet stay, you can also choose a room overlooking a small side street. However, I enjoyed the liveliness of the street and the call of the muezzin in the morning. The people were always very friendly everywhere and especially in the hotel and also down in the entrance area. If you try to talk a few words, sentences, greetings in Arabian language, you get very positve response. It was my first stay in Cairo and I will definitely come back and stay at the Philo Hotel again.

Great for location, price & clean.

Liked:Location great. Staff friendly. Rooms clean with fridge & aircon.

Disliked:Initially hard to find. Through an unmarked door into communal hall with the smallest sign showing it was on 3rd floor. Rooms lacked attention to detail and very worn - kettle provided but no cups. Breakfast only available in your room & not very appetising.
