Golden Park Hotel — Hotel in Cairo

Booked this hotel just to rest in before our fligt at 3am, we only needed a room until midnight. |I booked it because|A) it was close to the airport|B) it had free wifi|C) it offered on booking.com "a free 24hour shuttle to the airport"|Pictures of this hotel are very deceiving. The rooms are not as nice or as big as they look.|The room can get quite noisy because of outside traffic.|The bathroom was old and dreary, there was unidentified water on the floor in a puddle of the bathroom which we covered up with towels. |The wifi is very slow and only works in certain spots of the room and only two devices can be connected at once. They didnt give us the login details until we phoned reception twice and half hour later someone came to give us login details.|The plugs on the rooms dont work and we had to hold up our chargers with stuff to keep them in.|The TVs in the rooms only show local channels and our tv didnt work, we had to phone reception and a maintenece person came up fo fix it. |The room doesnt provide basic amenities like a kettle. |The airconditioning until was so old and loud we just turned it off. |I asked for the airport shuttle and they said they dont have airport shuttle but they can do a taxi for us which we would have to pay for - totally goes against what is said on booking.com. |I would suggest paying a bit more and...

Good value for money if you manage to find a discounted online rate through accomodations sites, but the rate directly at the hotel is too high for the conditions they offer. The hotel is showing it's age, but i found my room comfortable, the air con was not too noisy, the mattress was comfortable the sheets crisp, and they gave us a king sized bed when we asked for one. The bathroom was clean although it showed many signs of age. There is noise from the streets but that is Cairo. There is no double glazed windows but you can ask for a room in a higher floor which reduces the noise. We found the staff helpfull although their english capabilities were limited as perhaps they serve mostly the Egyptian market and not the foreign market. When we stayed there the wifi was not working throughout the whole stay which was very inconvenient as we had just arrived from the airport and needed to book a lot of other places and do research for the rest of the trip. I advise buying a sim card when you first arrive in the country and there is a vodacom shop not far from the hotel by Uber Hope this was helpful....

One of the worst hotels to stay in I was planning for a stay of 5 nights and I checked out after the first night

Starting with the receptionist who was so unprofessional and rude with zero experience in dealing respectfully with customers.

The room smelled a bit weird and the bathroom was outdated, the duvet cover had a blood stain and cigarette burns and when I asked for a replacement they got me 2 small covers that were overused and worn out, I asked for a better cover they told me these were the last duvet they had, the cushions had a weird smell as well.

The elevators were not working most of the time and I had to use the stairs more than once.

In the morning I asked for an Iron they told me their Iron is not working and my only option is to wait till 11 am for the laundry shop beside them to open.

The breakfast was less than basic, some cheese, eggs and sausage, the orange juice had black pieces floating.

However, the location is good near to cairo airport and...
