Great great staff. Right in the center of the city. Excellent value for money and the feeling of being an archeologist in the 20ies.

I had the most amazing balcony with the stunning view (if you don't mind noise, it's worth it!) but also I must say that for such an old building the windows were very isolating. Most of the pension staff are very lovely people and were here for me. I loved my old furniture, giving my stay a special Cairo touch.

“Beautiful Jugendstil hotel with very gentle owner family, a gem not to miss!”
Leaving busy Mohammed Farid Street and taking the elevator to Pension Roma in the 4th floor, is like a time travel to around 1900. Pension Roma is a quiet oasis built in wonderful Art Nouveau (Jugendstil) style with each room differently. Wooden parquet floors and plenty of gorgeous details which you won't find in Europe anymore as most of theses houses are renovated. Simple beauty with very high ceilings and a touch of Wes Anderson. The owner family are truely heartfelt, caring people and staying at Roma felt like a gentle family gathering. Breakfast is simple and continental, though we would have preferred Egyptian humus and bread. Three lovely cats live in the hotel and make the living room even cosier. The location is perfectly downtown with many sightseeing option in walking distance. Highly recommended!

“Home away from home”
I visited the pensione a couple of times 25-23 years ago. The place remains unchanged. Its a beautiful beacon of authenticity and oldy worldly charm. For us its a home away from home. Staff are the best, great spacious rooms, excellent location downtown. Nothing better!

There is a certain 'old world charm' about the place. And it's relatively comfortable.

“Affordable accommodation in Downtown Cairo with extremely lovely staff!”
A traditional hotel in bustling Downtown Cairo, with very welcoming and accommodating staff. They were quite lovely and gave many great recommendations. It was extremely affordable, including a small breakfast of tea/coffee and bread with cheese, eggs, and cookies.

“A good, cheap option for accommodation in downtown Cairo”
A great little hotel right in downtown Cairo - that maintains a feel of being transported back to the mid 1900s. The rooms are fairly basic - some have shared bathrooms - but it's clean and atmospheric and the staff are very friendly. It was good, budget-friendly option for a 3 day stay with our young child.

“Hotel with wonderful atmosphere in Downtown”
Nice hotel in Downtown with a wonderful athmosphere. The room was big and comfortable. The hotel has a beautiful living room. I was sitting every morning here and drunk my coffee. A wonderful start in the day. The area around is busy, lots of shops and some nice cafes and restaurants. Its a good area to stay in cairo and metrostation near by. Very friendly staff in the hotel. Thank you for everything.
