Golden Tulip Flamenco Hotel Cairo

Zamalek hotel with character

Prós: Their slogan is "local traditions, international standards" (or something like that) and they more or less live up to it: the hotel is close to the standards of the international chains and yet has a definite local flavor.

Contras: Rooms a little small, elevator a little slow.

Good hotel in Zamalek

Prós: Well run medium-sized hotel. Excellent location if you want to be in Zamalek. Not luxury, but good.

Contras: Occasional wrinkles, but that is inevitable in Cairo.
