Travelers House Hotel

Cairo


With only five rooms (three with private bathroom), this place is a cosy choice. All rooms are large, high-ceilinged, very simple and clean. There's a cute lounge to hang out in, scattered with kitsch Egyptian souvenirs, and with a dinky balcony where you can overlook the madness of Sharia 26th of July from above. Breakfast is an extra LE10.
