This is the worst Hilton I have ever stayed in. The fixtures on the wall were broken and screw holes are still visible on the walls, where the fixtures were on the floor like a dumpster. The hinges in bathroom were rusted. Fungus were on the shower fixtures (awful). The thermostat was covered with paint so we could not see the ranges, therefore were forced to turn it off. The fridge for mini bar was broken. I have a lot of pictures, but unfortunately do not know how to load them here. Bottom line....Hilton is great , but not this one...Be warned...stay away from it.

The staff was WONDERFUL, and the hotel is nice, but the rooms definitely could use a remodel. It was clean and nice sized, but some peeling paint, dirty carpet, old bathroom seemed a little off for a "5 star hotel". For the price I was happy, but just be prepared that it isn't what one would normally think of for a 5 star Hilton. Cheaper than other hotels in the area, and I had everything I needed, so I would probably stay here again if I go back to Cairo!

Close to Everything!

This hotel was part of a package we had for our stay. Its across the street from the Egyptian Museum and right on the Nile. He had an awesome view, although it was smoggy/overcast. The hotel was quiet but when you opened your sliding door to the outside, the full ambiance of Cairo was apparent in the honking of cars and the bustle of traffic and sounds of the call to prayer several times a day. Close the door and you couldnt hear a thing! The room was clean and staff helpful and respectful, although I did have trouble cashing some travellers checks at the 2 banks they had on the premesis. After speaking to a concierge about it, the managers of the banks were notified and those involved were repremanded. I dont have a clue why they told me I couldnt cash them there... There is a souk across the street that we didnt have time to go into. Breakfast was included in our room price and offered varied food items & basic eggs, toast along with local dishes, fruit, juices and many pastries and breads. A wide range of nationalities were coming & going and it was interesting watching people. I felt very safe and I would stay here again. We were a group of 8 women travelling together of various ages. It was an experience! Cairo is hurried and different! Come with an open mind and leave your snooty ideas at home!

A lousy 5-star hotel

Of all the 5-star hotels in Cairo, this is one of the worst. Staff were freindly, to be sure, but housekeeping was absolutely lousy. During my two weeks at the Ramses Hilton, I tried multiple times to have the General Manager and Housekeeping Director contact me so I could complain directly to them. Neither of them made an effort to get in touch with me. I have visited Cairo dozens of times and stayed in many different hotels in Cairo. The Ramses Hilton has a well-deserved reputation for having worn out furnishings and lousy service. I lived in Cairo for six years and us Westerners would often joke about the place, so I should have known better than to stay there. My first (and last) visit to this hotel was in June 2008. Nice location but you can do a lot better at many other hotels in the area.
