Prologue:
Back in May 2017 I had the chance to visit Cairo and surprise, surprise - I stayed at the Hilton Ramses.The hotel is centrally located next to the Egyptian Museum and within walking distance of subway stations. Service was exceptional and as a Hilton Elite member I was asked to go to the Executive floor to check in. I was assigned a corner room with fantastic views and provided with full access to the Executive Club.
When you enter the hotel you must go through security check and have your luggage x-rayed. This precautionary measure felt reassuring staying in this part of the world.
Lobby.
The corner room was spacious and had a living room area. It was very dated but the hotel was going to renovate the rooms and be updated.
Welcome gifts - water fruits and pastries.
WC
This hairdryer should belong in a museum.
Views from the room.

Summary:
The Hilton Ramses has a great central location and service was its strong point. Staff was professional and very attentive making it a really pleasant place to stay..The property needed some renovation and hopefully this has been resolved by now. I would not hesitate to stay here again.

Hey Adan, thanks for the review. I agree. The room seems a bit outdated.
Yes for most it's the same = When you enter the hotel you must go through security check and have your luggage x-rayed
How did you get there, regular cab or you have requested a pick up from hotel, if so how much have you paid ?
Outdated? More like "prehistoric" :P
I reserved a driver to pick me up from the airport to the hotel. There were two people who met me and I think i paid about USD 12-15 for the service. It was worth it for me. Once in CAI there was Uber and I used it a few times but it is not always 100% reliable. For the most part I was satisfied with it.
Thanks for the review!
outdated/prehistoric/old style, please circle the right adjective! =) However, the hotel is nice!
LOL. All of the above. ;) In the end if the service is excellent that can override a lot of other flaws.
