Pro: 1. good location. 2. They provided breakfast and delivered it to your room. Con: 1. the hotel shower flooded the entire time we were there. 2. We booked a tour guide through the hotel and paid them money to include lunch with our tour, the tour guide took our lunch money and we still ended up paying for lunch at the restaurant. Tried to complain to the hotel about it but they said the tour guide denied any wrong doing and did not give back the money we paid for lunch. It wasn’t a large amount of money but we did not appreciate the dishonesty.

I booked for 16 nights, 10 nights in a single room and the rest been booked during my stay for double deluxe room which has been nominated as I have viewed tbe room and booked it before hand under full control of receptionist Anas who nominated and recommend the room to me! On due date to move been told by receptionist Ali that, my booking has been cancelled and either to keep stay in the single room or to look for another place to saty! He contacted Sama hotel management and cancelled the booking even though I made all my bookings through Expedia! At that moment all I thought about was how can I get a decent place meet my criteria and avoid the huge hassle and preasure I am facingi Unfortunately at Sama hotel they are greedy go the point that my pre hand booking has been ancelled and the sold to a guest wbo has paid more! I took a taxi wondering around Cairo downtown paid 1000 EGP to find another hotel ending up in a hotel does not offered me nothing apart from basics with horrible breakfast and very week net connection! I would never ever recommend Sama hotel to family and friends and personally would never ever repeat the experience to chose it again! I kindly ask Expedia ban this hotel and not to recommen it to tbeir UK based clients.

Unfortunately, my experience at this hotel was very disappointing. One of the main issues was the water, which never became cold, making even a simple shower uncomfortable. I had booked a room with a double bed, but I was instead given a room with two single beds, which did not match my reservation. In addition, the air conditioning had an unpleasant smell, making the room uncomfortable. The check-in process was extremely slow: despite being scheduled for 2:00 PM, we had to wait an entire hour, and only entered the room at 3:00 PM, without any proper explanation. To make matters worse, the breakfast was very poor, offering only two pieces of bread, two boiled eggs, and two pieces of fruit, which was clearly insufficient. Overall, the stay was well below expectations.

It was an absolutely amazing experience staying in Sama hotel and in Egypt. Sama hotel’s staff Anas, Ali, Sama, Youssef and Ezzat were very cooperative and friendly. I booked my tours with them also and absolutely great service. Breakfast was very nice with different varieties every day. I will definitely recommend Sama hotel to everyone, because it is situated in the downtown of Cairo which is best place to explore the real Egypt. Thanks Sama hotel again for your hospitality.
