We had a delightful stay at Hotel Flair Downtown. The location was perfect, just minutes away from the Egyptian Museum, Tehrir Square, and Khan Al Khalili. The breakfast was satisfactory and the shower was great. Despite a few drawbacks like the noise and the small room, we would still recommend this hotel. it was a pleasant experience.

Nestled in the heart of the city, this hotel benefits from great underground access to nearby landmarks. The room and bathroom were clean and well-maintained, while the service from staff was friendly and welcoming. The breakfast selection was good and satisfying.

Some guests noted issues with cleanliness in public areas and bed linen.

I absolutely loved staying in the heart of the city and being able to easily reach famous attractions within minutes. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and their service was on par with a top-tier hotel. I also appreciated how delicious and generous the breakfast was.

There was nothing I didn't like.

The hotel's location was perfect for exploring the city and its surroundings. It was located near several restaurants and fast-food chains, as well as some tourist attractions. The staff was friendly and accommodating, always willing to help guests. The breakfast provided was ample and delicious, a perfect way to start the day.

The hotel lacked adequate cleanliness which could make guests uncomfortable. , the room was a bit too noisy, with sounds coming in from outside and other hotel guests.
