This is by far the worst "5-Star" hotel I have ever stayed at. I wonder to what standards they give themselves 5-stars from? The walls in the room had full of stains. Everything else was not to western cleanliness. The staff were not friendly or accommodating. On the arrival morning I asked the concierge where to go for a local... More

my husband took me for a weekend celebrating my 58 birthday. Everyone was so nice and really accomodating. I would like to thank them all, particulary the staff at the Lebanese restaurant Sabaya and Viola at the front desk. We had a wonderful time!

We are very happy to have chosen "InterContinental Cairo Semiramis". The hotel is very good and the room is very beautyfull, but perhaps 5 stars is too. All staff is polite and helpful. Placed in a good position in Cairo, but the noise is very high also at 14th floor in the night. I heartily advice this hotel!!!

It´s not going very well with several of the old Grande Dames of the Cairo downtown hotel world, the Nile Hilton has been closed for years now, the Hyatt pulled out and its remains are run down, and in Giza even the Mena House Oberoi has left the scene. Nice to see that the Intercontinental Semiramis is still going strong.... More
