About this hotel
The Royal Cairo Hotel provides a practical base for exploring the city, especially for those on a budget.

Our take
Royal Cairo Hotel is a simple budget address whose 8.8 score from 130 reviews comes mainly from its location. The Abdeen Palace Museum is a short stroll, Noubar Street is two minutes on foot, and Tablia Balady is nearby for dinner. I would book it to explore central Cairo before or after a flight; it is not built for a long list of facilities.
- Explore the area around Noubar Street on foot for local shops and cafes.
- Plan your airport transfer in advance, as public transport takes over an hour.
- Visit Abdeen Palace Museum early in the day to avoid crowds and enjoy the architecture.
