The hotel is beautiful & spotlessly clean. Staff are super helpful.
Room was comfortable & had great views over the Nile.
Breakfast was fresh, varied & tasty, also a big bonus for it being open till 11am.
Only negative was the price of food, 3 times more expensive than in nearby restaurants which i guess was too be expected
