Giza Pyramids View Inn

The location is fantastic, just a two minute walk from the ticket office for the Sphinx entrance to the Giza pyramid complex. The Inn was one of the first in this part of Giza, and everyone we met on staff was friendly and helpful. We spent two nights here, with a nice view of the pyramids and sphinx from our room. They arranged a free airport pickup even though we booked less than two hours before arriving, and the driver was already waiting with a sign bearing our names. I sent a weapie of my husband and me to help identify us, and they sent back the driver’s picture and WhatsApp number, which was really useful. Breakfast on the roof terrace was enjoyable too.

The rooftop was a lovely place to have breakfast, and later we watched the sunset there with coffee and tea the hotel offered. The chef greeted us with a kind smile and made delicious falafels. Breakfast itself was simple but great. Our Junior suite was spacious, clean, and had a balcony with a fantastic view of the Sphinx and pyramids. Waking up to that sight felt priceless. The owners also provided plenty of water for free. We added an extra bed for $20 per night. There were government works happening in front of the accommodation, but they didn’t bother us much or interrupt our sleep. Before we arrived, communication was great, and they arranged an airport van at a fair price. The staff were kind and always smiling. We felt well looked after and welcomed like family, and would recommend booking Pyramids View Inn.

A comfortable room with a nice pyramid view, and very welcoming staff who were ready to help. There aren’t a lot of frills, but the rooftop breakfast is free, and you can sip coffee while looking at the pyramids and figuring out your morning plans.

The neighborhood was busy and full of horses and camels, little markets, souvenir shops, and some cool coffee places. We walked around at night and felt safe, though I can see not everyone would. People we met, even in the small back alleys, were warm and smiling. The roof terrace faces three pyramids and the sphinx, and you can get tea or coffee there any time. Breakfast had cheese, fruit, vegetables, pastries, and fresh fried falafel. Our room was a simple one bedroom apartment with lots of space. It was an inner unit with no windows or street noise, but had a small balcony area with the view. It was quiet despite the busy area, the water was hot, and the pyramid view room lived up to what we expected. Everyone at the hotel was especially warm and helpful. We stayed two nights and used the free airport pickup, which was a big help after arriving late, as they waited through the long customs and baggage process. The staff also found a driver and guide at very short notice. Giza and Cairo seemed hard to navigate otherwise, and we managed to fit a lot into our one day. Thank you for a great stay.
