Everything was perfect.

16.12.2025 Sjur

The positive:
Wonderful views. Very cheap. Very cozy rooftop. Wonderful staff and owner. Truly beautiful people.

The negative: Low standard. Worn down. Not a nice area. Dirt roads, stray dogs and garbage all over the place. Close to the highway, so it’s noisy.

For my purpose, this was a good enough place, but I would probably try somewhere else next time. For me the dealbreaker was the noise from the highway when I was going to sleep.

Very nice staff! All of them.The owners/operators were very engaged with all the guests. Special thanks to Ahmed, who greeted me on my prior visit just to check out the hotel, and again yesterday when I arrived. Very professional.

Thanks to the owners/operators. Gabrielle (sp) and Mohammad. Even all the guests were cordial. I met several from Ireland.

I had a double room with city view just for me. I specifically book my room to determine if I wanted to rebook the following year, of which I already did.

The rooms have been remodeled and are very clean.

The terrace is so nice, especially at night with the view of the pyramids. I was lucky to be there doing a full moon where the moon was directly beside the pyramids. What a sight to see. You can also watch the skydivers early in the morning around the Pyramids.

Breakfast is served in intervals over 30+ minutes or more. Basically, coffee/tea/juice earlier and then veggies and cheese etc, followed up by eggs, falafel and dessert. So, don't do what I did and fill up at the beginning and have no room for the rest!😅. Make sure to tip the cook(s). They do a fantastic job. Thanks to everyone that made my stay wonderful.

*Just a heads up for future guests if you have never been to Giza before. This hotel is located in in the middle of the desert, just like the Pyramids, so you will see lots of dust/sentiment outdoors as you would in any desert city like in Phoenix, Arizona. USA, for example. Inside the hotel is pristine.

It's a shame to write this as the people who run it seem nice and are trying to earn a living but unfortunately this place is not suitable for anyone except budget backpack style travel. The fixtures and fittings are poor, beds terrible, showers rubbish and breakfast sub standard. The area felt too rough to wander around. Worst of all, getting any Uber was a nightmare as they kept getting the exact address wrong and wanted us to come on the main highway! Dangerous!! The view is marred by the highway and general atmosphere. Sadly I have to advise, do not stay here until they make it fit for purpose. The positive reviews are either budget Travellers with low naive expectations or more likely people asked to post positive reviews to boost their ratings

ARE YOU SERIOUS??? Is this REAL? I arrived late and was tired so I had to stay the night in this joke of a place. It was meant to be 2 nights but next morning, first thing (after free breakfast) I ran away!!
Pros: Nice view from the roof. Homemade cakes n biscuits were nice. Friendly staff(more about staff in cons!!).
Cons: Area is like a war zone: stray dogs, dirt roads with more potholes than all the roads in the world COMBINED!!! Feels unsafe
Unprofessional staff: The guy met me in flip flops!!! And was eating pumpkin seeds or something...I mean...R U FOR REAL???
Rooms n place are NOT as you see in photos. Deceiving big time. The place needs a lick of paint and proper redecorating and cleaning. TV in main area(the roof) freezes every now and then, so watching a live champions league game was a nightmare. What is this place??? I didn't know wether to cry or laugh!! Never again.

Very nice hotel and staff was very nice I just didn't like where the hotel was located but I got a nice view to the Giza Pyramids

Our stay at the Desert Moon Hotel in Giza, Egypt, was nothing short of a nightmare. We were lured in by our travel agent’s package, and it turned out to be a complete scam. From the moment we arrived, we knew we had made a terrible mistake. The entry area was horrifying — broken, rusty gates led us to a filthy, crumbling building surrounded by dilapidated structures. It didn’t even resemble a proper hotel. The so-called hotel was crammed inside a multi-story apartment building filled with similar shady accommodations. There was NO reception area, NO ledger to track guests, and absolutely NO security — a major concern for anyone traveling with valuables or family. To make matters worse, people were actually cooking under the staircase using a plastic sheet for cover, which filled the entire area with unbearable smells. The staircase itself was disgusting — grimy, smelly, and unfinished, resembling an abandoned construction site. The room conditions were just as appalling. There were NO room heaters, NO geysers for hot showers, and the water pressure was pitiful. Taking a shower felt like torture. Breakfast was an absolute disaster — stale, cold, and practically inedible. Even worse, there was no staff to complain to, no one to care about guests’ concerns, and no one taking responsibility for the pathetic state of this so-called hotel. To top it off, the glowing reviews we had seen online turned out to be utterly misleading, making us feel trapped and scammed by our travel agent. This place is an absolute disgrace, and I wouldn’t recommend it to my worst enemy. DO NOT stay at Desert Moon Hotel unless you’re prepared for a horrible experience. We left feeling furious, frustrated, and completely cheated.

cheap, clean and tidy. I was surprised at their wifi, as it gave me a good stable connection to work and keep in touch with my family. The view was good, and location wasn't that far from the airport. Especially when I could reserve a car from hotel.

The service at the hotel itself was very good.
However, I am lowering my rating because the hotel driver was terrible. I used their driver, paid $20, and went on a tour of Cairo city.
The driver only accompanied me to the restaurant, ordered a lot, and I paid 560 EGP for the meal. He took out what we couldn't finish. On top of that, I paid a good tip.
I regret not sightseeing on my own.

23.05.2023 Guest

As a solo female traveler I was well taken care of. I never had to eat breakfast alone and Dr. Mohamed (owner) was very solicitous of all guests needs. He even let me leave my luggage there while I went on a 3 day visit to Siwa Oasis
