Fine once you’re inside
This place certainly doesn’t have much ‘curb appeal’ and you have to fight through a fast food restaurant to get to the hotel door, but the room was clean and spacious and service is great.

Great Budget Hotel in Downtown
This is a great budget hotel in downtown Cairo.
Staff is incredibly friendly. Best part of the hotel for sure.
It is on the 5th and 6th floor of a building so intially you need to climb some stairs. The elevator does work but you need a fob for it.
Rooms are nicely renovated too.
If you’re traveling solo or on a budget this is a great hotel.

This place will fool you from the outside. The area in general is historic. The rooms are clean and pretty updated. Very nice people. The price is affordable I liked it overall.

4/10 Fair
Nov 4, 2024
I have been a guest at Sama’s multiple times and I always enjoyed it. However this time it was not a good experience. The day of booking they contacted me telling me that they messed up and that they can’t accommodate the two rooms I reserved weeks in advance. They told me I had to go to their “sister” hotel that is close by. They assured me that it is exactly the same in terms of cleanliness and level of service. Unfortunately that is not true. The furniture of the rooms were much older, the bathrooms were much smaller and the room didn’t even have a phone to talk to reception! This is very disappointing. I considered Sama to be my go to place when I come to Cairo but now I am reconsidering.
