I cannot say much about the hotel since they moved me to a different one -- on a noisy street and a bit lower quality\cheaper. The staff was friendly and apologetic, but the substitution was not adequate. I received no advance notice that the reserved room was unavailable and nothing was offered as compensation.

This is a really great place. It's a mid-range hotel which outperforms a lot of higher-end places I've stayed in in many parts of the world. Even though I don't speak Arabic, the staff always made me feel at home. The manager Hassan was not only genteel but arranged for everything we needed logistically. We used drivers from the hotel for tours of Cairo's many cultural offerings as well as to Giza. There is also an amazing breakfast every morning featuring fresh, delicious Egyptian food. The hotel is also located in downtown within walking distance of restaurants, bakeries, cafes, juice places, outdoor shisha and conversation places. Overall just a terrific place to stay. Highly recommended.

The room (floor and bed )weren't the cleanest. The kitchen staff at breakfast was rude and short tempered when I made request. The breakfast itself was minimal.

Super place
Very good accommodation! In the city center, in a great location, with modern, clean, comfortable rooms. A little gem! Special thanks to the chef for the magnificent breakfasts! The entire staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Very clean, modern, I hope we will visit again! since Egypt is Egypt, just to be safe, check with them on the phone before you arrive :-)

A six-nights stay
We have fond memories of our stay at the El-Farida; after a few days, we became acquainted with its operations – from reception to breakfast service – and made a conscious effort not to overburden the staff with our requests. It's worth noting that the owner is genuinely committed to service quality. While he may not directly oversee every aspect, his influence is evident. Younger receptionists sometimes seem hesitant in their interactions with foreign guests, for example, it took them three days discussing the malfunctioning television in our room. However, the seasoned employees exhibit a commendable dedication, often compensating for any shortcomings. Nonetheless, everyone on staff is remarkably helpful and adept at addressing guests' needs. Shampoo, shower gel, soap, and towels are available in the bathroom, and the air conditioning is dual-function, allowing you to raise the room temperature in winter (although it was unnecessary in February). Cattle is available upon request at the reception desk.
