Holiday rentals with breakfast in Bulaq

I stayed at an Airbnb located on the 4th floor— A beautiful view, my own rooftop cottage. It comes with 3 bedrooms and a private bathroom. Even though it's on the 4th floor, the host's family—his son—came all the way to where I got out of the taxi and helped carry my heavy luggage. They never asked for a tip, and food, water, and more were almost all offered for free. It felt like a personalized service beyond a 5-star hotel. The host, Saad, was always nearby offering food, drinks, and concierge service with a smile. I came to see the pyramids without any plans, but Saad instantly became my travel coordinator and helped organize everything so perfectly. His kind friend, Azzouz, was my day tour guide. He was kind—and even kinder! Egyptian people are so warm and genuine. I definitely want to come back again. Thank you Saad and Azzouz!! Love you!! It was such an amazing experience. 친절한 호스트, 완벽한 뷰와 서비스! 피라미드 여행까지 완벽히 도와준 최고의 경험이었어요. 🇰🇷

Super 😎

Very friendly, helpful and accommodating hosts. Good location only a minutes walk from the pyramid entrance. We felt safe and comfortable here. Good value for money with breakfast and drinks included.

As it appears in the photo, a great host. Breakfast is special not only for its presentation, but also for the taste. Always ready to help and attentive to answer any questions.

This is a great place to stay. You can see the pyramids from the rooftop. People are nice and kind. The driver was very eager to show you places worthwhile visiting!

Had a lovely stay. The view and proximity to the Great Pyramid was amazing…highly recommend. The atmosphere in the home with the kittens and staff on hand was always peaceful and clean, and any questions or needs were readily handled by Hassan, the home manager. We mainly had breakfast in the home and ate other meals out. The breakfast was well prepared and tasty. The same thing was served each day; however, variety was accommodated on request and was equally good. There were two of us renting the entire home so hot water seemed plentiful. WiFi was a bit spotty but we were able to navigate it. We used Mahmoud as the recommended driver and he was the best…highly recommend. For a guide, we used Miriam as recommended by the home neighbor and friend Kareem, and she was equally great. Very knowledgeable and professional. Also, for assisting with a few pictures, she had a good eye and was accommodating and took lovely shots. Overall, a great experience.

I’d like to thank Yousra, she is an amazing host who was willing to help me with anything she could. I came to Cairo really early and I felt so tired and wanted to check in early, she helped me so much and made sure that I could get to the apartment early. The apartment is also amazing!! Everything is perfect

This is one of my favorite stays in Cairo, simple natural decor and furnishings and daily cleaning at no cost . Bedding is my number one criteria when selecting a place and this one didn’t disappoint, good quality and comfortable. The location is great , there is a restaurant or a cafe within a 2 minute walk in any direction. Very nice , I will most likely return.

Ahmed and the rest of the team wore more than great 🤍

Abdallah gave us a very warm welcome, gave great tips and helped us with arrival and onward travel. The apartment is large, has a great balcony with a view of the Nile. Various restaurants nearby (in Zamalek), nightlife. Would book the apartment again.

very nice and spaceous flat

We had an incredible stay at this Airbnb in Zamalek! The host was amazing—super responsive and accommodating. Check-in was seamless, and they even allowed us to keep our luggage at the apartment for a few extra hours after checkout, which was a huge help as we had a later departure. The location was perfect—right in the heart of Cairo, within walking distance of everything, and it felt significantly safer than other areas of the city. The apartment itself was spotless, well-equipped, and comfortable for our group of five. The balconies were a lovely touch, providing great views and a relaxing space to unwind. The host also left thoughtful little touches, like tea and small gifts, which made us feel even more welcome. The bathroom was clean, there was always hot water, and overall, the apartment had everything we needed for a great stay. All in all, this is definitely one of the best places to stay in Cairo, and I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the city!

I had a great stay in Moustafa's flat, which is ideally located within walking distance of downtown Cairo. The neighbourhood is lively and safe, and you'll find all you need in the area. It's also close to subway stations, so you can easily travel along the lines. The flat itself is big and equipped with all the necessities, be it in the kitchen or bathrooms. The rooms are comfortable and all of them have air conditioning, which is a must in Cairo. Moustafa is a very agreeable host, and in Cairo Halla was easy to reach and readily available to help me with any issues I encountered during my stay. All in all, I warmly recommend this place if you need accommodation in Downtown!

I booked the place for its location and it completely delivered on that. It is right in front of the pyramids and I was able to see them from my room as well as the rooftop. The light show was clearly visible from the rooftop and I immensely enjoyed the stay. They helped with a luggage issue I had with the airlines and were helpful in arranging food according to preference.

A perfect spot to stay in Cairo. The neighborhood is central, quiet but lively. Perfect for going out to dinner in the evening, it's easy to walk around. The apartment is cozy, well decorated. And above all, Martine's welcome is at its best: we received lots of good tips for visits, restaurants etc. I will happily return if I come back to Cairo!

Chez Martine was absolutely nice place to stay. As I was travelling as a solo woman the area felt safe (to walk even it was dark alreaf) and was peaceful compared to center. Shower had hot water which was nice as it was bit chilly on February. Mr. Nasser was very friendly. what I really liked was the atmosphere, the flat was very specially decorated.

We had a lovely time with Nasser who was a great help so we could fully enjoy Cairo. Recommended!

Very good stay at Ashraf's place, who was always there to answer our requests He offered us a taxi to come to the hotel on the 1st day Offered to change rooms if ours didn't work Everything was fine Building with elevator Clean accommodation Good lively neighborhood Tahir Square is a 20-25min walk as the Cairo Museum

We took a tour of the Bayt Yakan with Alaa, the owner and architect, and it was beautiful and amazing the work that he and his wife Ola have done to restore the house and also to strengthen the cohesiveness of the neighborhood. There was a very joyous new baby party in the courtyard of local people one night of our stay. To really take advantage of your stay, best to spend most of your time in the outside patio areas or courtyard areas (where you will be surrounded by two cats 😀). Or, spend time in the library, especially if you prefer reliable internet. The apartment was quiet for sleep, and we slept well. The food cooked for breakfast is very good. The same women cooks will make lunch or dinner also, and it is delicious.

The hotel's location is super convenient to reach, even on foot, Khan el-Khalili, Al-Azhar Park, Old Town, Downtown, and many other attractions. On all the nearby streets there is great street food. The structure is spartan but there is everything you need. Finally, Said and his staff are friendly and also available to provide tourist information and organize guided activities. I therefore highly recommend staying at this accommodation for those who want to experience the city from the inside and in an authentic way.
