카이로 소피텔 호텔

매우 피곤한 상태로 오전 3시에 호텔에 체크인했는데, 풀 리버뷰 객실로 업그레이드해 주더군요. 뜻밖에도 기분 좋았고, 발코니에서 보이는 전망이 정말 멋졌어요. 시설은 모든 면에서 아주 좋고, 소피텔 수준에 가깝습니다. 아침 식사 레스토랑의 전망과 분위기도 훌륭하고, 선택할 수 있는 음식의 종류도 다양합니다. 이곳은 제가 이집트 여행 중에 묵었던 호텔 중 가장 좋은 곳이었습니다!

Lovely hotel in a prime location on the Nile. Our room had a lovely view of the Nile and the pool area. The room was modern and had all the amenities you would need including some luxury Byredo toiletries which were a nice touch. Though it’s a newly renovated hotel, the downside was that our non-smoking room had an unusual smell in it and also upon check in, the entire carpet was wet. The breakfast buffet was good although some items were a bit stale by 8am (pancakes in particular) which could’ve been better if fresh. There was no room service options from your room so we tried the restaurants but wouldn’t really recommend. We tried Kamala which is a pan-Asian fusion and though we were the only guests dining, the food took over an hour to make and wasn’t the best. The Solano restaurant again was okay, much fresher than Kamala. Would recommend the hotel for its location however the reception can get really busy and the staff could do with being more attentive to the guests they’re serving rather than those impatiently interrupting.
