I stayed at the Novotel for 5 nights and really enjoyed my stay, I would definitely stay there again. As I have been to Cairo many times I opted for a cheaper city view room on the 3rd floor, you can get a fabulous Nile view from the roof if you want one. My room was a non-smoking room with... More

After a late arrival at Cairo airport we chose this place mostly for practical reasons. This choice turned out very good. The rooms are spacious enough to accomodate two adults plus two children without surcharge (Novotel policy). Very nice breakfast and friendly staff. More

We stayed at Novotel el Borg for four nights in January 2012. The hotel was clean and comfortable. The location is unbeatable and the view is fantastic. I believe it's the best view in Cairo. The surrounding area is nice and very safe to walk in at night. Breakfast buffet is not great but adequate. The hotel serves the purpose... More

I stayed in Novotel el Borg from 21/01 till 25/01, in a room on the sixth floor with a Nile view (Very cheap). It was a bit noisy because of traffic and the prayers at 5 am. The location is good. It has a nice roof top terrace. Unfortunately the hotel does not serve alcohol, but one can order for... More

Novotel Hotel is in a perfect location in Cairo, the rooms are comfortable/stylish, and the staff is very friendly. For a 100 USD (tax included) your stay is a great deal. Cairo is a big and messy city, so location is key! On the downside: food is terrible (we actually skipped the breakfast) and there is no alcohol served at... More
