Cairo, Nile Hilton Hotel Review

Good Points
The hotel is adjacent to the Cairo Museum (Tutankahmun's Treasures) and is on the banks of the Nile and near the metro.

Bad Points
Traffic is horrendous, it is near impossible to cross roads. The (free) safety deposit is at reception not in-room.

General Comments
The luxury Nile Hilton Hotel is now a little jaded in decor but the friendliness and efficiency of the staff more than make up. The rooms are large and very comfortable and most have a spacious balcony. There is a large selection (about 6) of restaurants and bars and an adjacent, connected, shopping mall. For Europeans hotel meals and services are excellent value and service is always excellent. The hotel will arrange an agent to meet you at Cairo Airport (a must as they will get you through immigration and customs!) and provide a chauffeur car to the hotel for about 20 US dollars.
