Pyramisa Isis Corniche Hotel Reviews
We booked 2 rooms independently for 4 nights and were warned by the agent in Cairo that he had received complaints from American guests 2 weeks before our departure. He wanted to move us to the Basma Hotel but as we had stayed in Aswan previously we knew this to be too far out of the resort for our short visit. After asking if the complaints were regarding cleanliness or about the food and being advised no - it was service issues, we decided to stay with our choice.
The hotel was great, the pool was right by the Nile with a raised verandah to have our evening drinks before setting off out to try the local eateries.
However, breakfast service was laughable and could take anything up to 90 minutes for 4 of us to choose from a choice of 6 things from the menu, be served and eat. Service meant bringing the coffee / tea, the choice of fruit, cereal, eggs or croissants. We were lucky to get the right cutlery on the table let alone finding we had all the necessary crockery!
All in all, we had a great time and spent most of our breakfast times - by taking the relevant crockery and cutlery from the surrounding tables.
The staff are lovely and the hotel was almost empty apart from us and a few other couples. Probably most of them had been moved to the Basma.
We would certainly go back again, for the location alone....
It was clean, the linen was changed everyday and the rest of the service within the hotel was fine.
Most of all - it was cheap for us. We paid $25per person per night to be able to sleep by Egypt's main artery and to watch the sunset every evening. Awesome!
