Well set in the Giza district of Cairo, Queen Pyramids View Inn is located 800 metres from Great Sphinx, 4.5 km from Giza Pyramids and 14 km from Cairo Tower. Featuring an ATM, this property also provides guests with a terrace. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi throughout the property.

The Pyramids View Inn is a really authentic and nice place to stay if you want to visit the pyramids and don‘t want an anonymus, expensive 5-star-hotel. The owner is very nice and welcoming, helps you with everything if you want but also does not push and lets you be if you want to do things on your own. The room is clean and comfortable and we saw the pyramids from our small window. The terrasse has an even more stunning view on the pyramids! The breakfirst is authentic, too, with homemade falafel and lentils and bread with cheese and jam. You have to be aware that the surrounding is a normal neighborhood in Gizeh. Yes, it‘s dusty, there are many locals, dogs, horses, we did not meet many tourists. But we especially liked that. And it is a short foot walk to the pyramids!! There are many restaurants where you can eat in front of the pyramids. We ate for example at the roof top bar 7000 and watched the light show there, it was very nice! The owner also helps you if you arrive late or even at night. We took an Uber from the airport (be careful that they don‘t trick you and cancel the ride when they start driving! We had that with our Uber driver from the airport and had to discuss the price, but everything went well in the end. Uber said it costs around 120 EGP from the airport to Gizeh. We payed around 300 EGP in the end, which is a bit less than 10$, you should not have to pay more) It helps a lot to have a sim card in Egypt with mobile internet, I can recommend it to use Uber in Cairo and plan your trip. We bought one at the airport at the vodafone booth with 20 GB. Google Maps shows the right location of the Pyramids View Inn. It is the easiest if you come from the main road and just go to the right. Our Uber driver tried to come from the backside, where the pyramids are but the roads are very tiny there and it‘s hard to get to the hotel. From the main road it‘s very easy!

    The apartment is way more spacious than it looks in the photos, doc Amro is an amazing host and went above and beyond to make sure we had an excellent time. The compound has a nice restaurant and good swimming pool. It's a bit outside the city centre but uber is cheap so that balances out. Me and my family couldn't be happier with our experience in this accommodation.

    Great location for the pyramids - next to the ticket office for the sphinx entrance and fantastic views from the terrace - probably one of the nearest hotels to the site. Friendly and helpful staff - they helped me book a cheap taxi into town after Uber let me down so really appreciated. Hotel is clean and my room was pretty quiet.

    The guesthouse is not for those looking for luxury, but it offers comfortable accommodation. The area is quiet, which mattered the most to us. There is air conditioning in the room, but for us there was no need to turn it on. The view from the rooftop is extraordinary. The host was very attentive with us. He organized the pickup from the airport, prepared breakfast and dinner at the hours we wanted. The prepared meals were delicious.
