Amazing apartment and view

The view is literally heart-stoppingly amazing, both from the apartment and the giant roof terrace. At all hours of the day, it seems like a fairy tale. The apartment is incredible as well. Comfortable and accomodating in every way. Full kitchen, big comfortable beds. The apartment is spectacular. And for the price, it's a ridiculously good deal. Soma, you host, could not be better. She is very responsive and accomodating. As an example, she did some light grocery shopping for me on the first day of. Ramadan. Above and beyond as a hostess.My only caveat is that the location is a bit funky. Its on an alley a bit off the main street. You will probably need to get some specific instrutions or have your transpot talk to Soma because it is not easy to find the first time. It is not an inconvenient location, but it's not like you ask for #202 Baker Street and find it on your own.Other than the somewhat sneaky location, though, it is a real gem.

Our Family Trip to the Pyramids

The proximity to the pyramids and the view was incrdedible. Seems like you could almost touch them from the windows and rooftop area. Surrounding area and walk down the alley was a little uncomfortable, but our drive helped to clear some ruccus that was occurring and the lady that met us there to give us the keys was incredibly welcoming, helping us get situated in the room, checking in on us periodically and meeting us early in the morning to aid us in our departure.

A great location for the pyramids

The property host was extremely helpful with lots of local advice. The property is hidden away with a great view of the pyramids, you need to be able to manage a couple of flights of stairs upto the front door.

Wonderful Visit

This was my first visit to Egypt. We were met at the airport and helped through customs. The view was fabulous. We arrived after dark and the walk from the car to the apartment was very dusty; although I was expecting sandy, the thick dust was unexpected. The apt manager was 5 Star great. She arranged wonderful transportation and was extremely friendly and helpful.

Great time and fun location

When I visit a new place, I like to stay in local neighborhood for a truer feel for the country. This apartment did not disappoint. We need to look both ways for camels, carriage and horses before stepping out of the unit! Loved it!! Watch the Giza light show every night from our terrace! Soma was wonderful and would immediately help us with anything! Her young daughter was also a lovely host!

Wonderful location, incredible view, big and clean apartment, great hospitality!

Thank you, Soma, for your care and dedication. My partner and I (we're from Spain and Germany) visited Egypt for the first time and stayed 3 nights in Giza. We didn't spend too much time in the apartment, as we explored the pyramids and the famous Khan El-Khalili Market, but the time we did spend, we felt at home. Be aware that if this is your first time visiting this exact area, don't be surprised by the sandy roads, horses, and camels nearby, as this is a tourist area - however, it is very quiet in the apartment as the windows are double glazed, you will not be bothered by the outside sounds. Soma was very kind and attentive and met our needs immediately and with much care. We hope to come back again soon! With love, Charli & Heiko

Beautiful View

As advertised, this is a excellent Giza Pyramids view , including night light/ laser show , Soma was the perfect host , from attending to any small issue instantly to being available for any and all inquiries eagerly.The apartment was very clean and functional and as advertised, Soma was able to arrange for help with our luggage and we strongly recommend arranging for guided tours , it’s really impossible to enjoy your visit without a local guide and Soma is also able to assist with booking your tours as well . The neighborhood is among that of local Egyptians , so horses and camel stables are on the suburban streets, it is the perfect property for that home town feel with gracious hosts.Part of the local experience is getting a little sand in your shoes or seeing a small Greco scurry across the patio, they eat bugs and are part of the Egyptian ecosystem and are harmless . Again we would highly recommend this property, you are in good hands with Soma , and having someone you can trust close by while staying in Cairo is priceless.

Very nice stay!

This is a great place if you are NOT the 4 Seasons type and are more "on your own and let's explore" type! From the beginning, Soma was in excellent communication. Everything went as planned. The pictures are accurate, and the papyrus paintings on the walls are exquisite. The view is amazing, yes! Everything was very clean. The flat is really close to Pyramids. You can walk to the entrance. But don't be high-manteince because walking to the 'action' is a brief but dusty walk while camel and horse dodging. I highly recommend this place!

Real life in Giza close to pyramids!

The apartment was clean and had everything we needed. The location was "colorful" with camels, goats, horses all along the street. The only problem was between the kids playing until 11, and then incessant dog barking -- even with earplugs, it was hard to sleep. Also, bring coffee and snacks with you as there is nothing provided. But the kitchen is stocked with everything you need. we were glad to have had a "local" experience so it was fun.

Hospitality Like No Other At My Home Away From Home

My stay in Cairo was like no other I have experienced before. The property was located in an excellent part of town to reach whatever I needed by foot, taxi or ride service. The view from the porch area of the pyramids of Giza was breathtaking and surreal! The apartment inside was immaculate and adorned with some of the most beautiful papyrus art pieces my eyes have ever seen. My property manger Soma is a beautiful soul and helped me immensely with whatever I needed including tours, and the proper PCR test before departing to reach home without issue. I have friends for life in Egypt now as my tour guide and friend Ahmad Hakim provided me with intellect, hospitality, and life experiences I will cherish in this lifetime and the next. My drivers during my stay; Anasosama, Nader, Mohamoud, and Waleed were extremely helpful and as kind hearted people as you could find anywhere in this world. What a transformative and eye opening experience. I will return some day for sure!!! ✌😎🤙

Iconic view, comfortable apartment

The apartment is very nice, all the comforts of home are provided. You can see the pyramids from the balcony, living room and two out of three bedrooms. The hostess is excellent, she arranged transportation from the airport, guides, PCR tests, everything. At one point before we arrived we thought we'd need to get booster shots while there and she even arranged that, it just worked out that we were able to get them during our previous stop. As far as location, it's a mixed bag to a degree, simply because the area around the pyramids is so lively. The apartment itself is on a side street, but you still hear a lot of human and animal activity during the night. For me, this just added to the excitement of being there, though I do generally prefer a quieter atmosphere. However, that's the trade off for being literally a stone's throw from one of the most famous monuments in the world.

Authentic Cultural Experience in Cairo.

I spent 2 months in this apartment, and it was as described. The view to the pyramids was great and the cleanliness of the apartment was top. The apartment is located directly with the locals, who were super friendly and always helpful. From there you see a true picture of Giza with the camels, horses and TucTucs. Nearby are enough stores to get food and also other important buildings such as exchange or pharmacies. Also on arrival everything went top, she was already waiting for us at the house and regularly asked if I was well or if I needed anything. I am very grateful for this. I felt totally comfortable during these 2 months. I would definitely recommend this apartment!

Perfect for pyramids with the family

This apartment was perfect for our family for our visit of the pyramids and Cairo. We had friends stay here a month ago and they knew we’d love it too. It’s off the beaten path.a bit, and yes there are noises from dogs, cats, horses, and life in general but all of that added to the experience for us. While here we did a pyramid tour, rode four wheelers, camels, and horse carts, bought food at local shops to take back to the apartment, and enjoyed watching the lights on the pyramids from the patio in the evenings. With Uber it was always easy enough to ride into Cairo for other outings and walking past the horses 5 minutes or so brought you to shops with food and supplies. If your looking for a taste of the area in a safe clean apartment with AC and a super host you’ll enjoy your stay here.

Amazing spot and great welcome!

The property was as advertised or better! Great view of the pyramids; we could watch the pyramids light up at night. It's a 10 min walk to the pyramid/sphinx entrance. There are camels and horses all along that area, which gives us a unique ambiance. Lots of little streets to walk through. The owner was very welcoming; she even baked us a local dessert one night. Thanks for the stay!!

Immersion into local life

This is my second time living in this apartment and I'm sure I'll repeat it. The views, the location, the decoration, everything excellent. The beds are comfortable. Everything is absolutely clean. To emphasize the kindness of its manager, Soma. The neighborhood is very typical, with sandy streets so that the horses can walk well. The people of the surroundings are friendly, it is enough to greet with a "Salam" to give you a smile. The neighbourhood is safe and the access to the area is guarded. A few minutes walk away you will find places that are well worth a visit, such as the restaurant Elhadaba.

Pyramidenblick

Der Blick auf die Pyramiden ist wirklich atemberaubend! Egal ob im Morgenlicht, mit Abendrot oder bunt beleuchtet bei Nacht. WLAN läuft gut und der Kontakt zu Soma ist perfekt. Die Sauberkeit der Wohnung selbst ist okay, aber die Umgebung und auch der Hauseingang selbst sind für Europäer gewöhnungsbedüftig. Die Betten sind komfortabel und Platz ist auch genügend in der Wohnung. Die Ausstattung der Küche ist minimalistisch und im Bad ist nur Seife vorhanden. Insgesamt würden wir einen Aufenthalt weiterempfehlen.

An immersion in local life

First of all, our host Soma does an amazing job of keeping in touch and helping resolve any problems that come up. The apartment is a real immersion with local life. There are some issues such as night noises, including dogs barking, horses galloping, and roosters crowing. It takes time to get used to it. The local residents are very friendly, and this is a great place if you are interested in living and learning about the local life. I enjoyed it. The apartment is clean, and the view of the pyramids is great.

What makes this property unique

This apartment is located near the Pyramids and the Sphinx of Giza literally at your fingertips. Near the apartment you can book horseback riding and scenic tours and services are easily available. There are restaurants, bars nearby, but if you want we can arrange excursions at a fair cost for the most popular places in the area and the Cairo City. Another that you must visit is The Pharonic Village, The Citadel and the famous Khan El Kalili 14th century market. An evening cruise along the River Nile will not forget for a lifetime, complete with music and belly dancers and dinner.
We recommend a visit to the amazing Tutankhamun gold buried in the Cairo Museum.
