I'm currently staying at the Windsor Hotel for three weeks. I wanted to write a review before I left because I've been having such a wonderful time here and was saddened to hear that their reservations have dropped because visitors are afraid of living in Downtown Cairo. I thought I'd share my experience in case it would help others decide.... More

This is the downtown hotel that time forgot, and we loved every minute of our stay here. We stayed with our 2year old son and the location was perfect for visiting all the sights. We used the hotel's guide for a day and he was really great, I think he was called Mena. The staff went out of their way... More

My first visit to the Windsor Hotel was 8 years ago. Back then I paid £7 per room per night for a double room with private bathroom but excluding breakfast. I had a great experience given the rates and was looking forward to staying there again despite the inflated price. My husband and I paid for a deluxe room. We... More

For an older couple on a limited budget visiting Egypt for the first time this place was just what we needed as a base. We loved the delightful, authentic, if faded, 1930s atmosphere: spacious rooms with high ceilings, comfortable beds, original polished floors; even the phones and, by the look of it, the air cons were of the period but...

Further to my mother in law's review (Brigitte James, Wimborne, Enland) and as I said in my review under Memphis Tours, Cairo, we picked the Windsor Hotel because it was central to all our needs. We also wanted to have a feel for the real Cairo/Egypt and not be in a sterile five star hotel. We arrived at the Windsor... More

Political and every day life changes, caused by the "Arabic Revolution", created a new feeling inside myself... In times of such elementary changes in society not only the Egyptian people are looking for their new positions under the new conditions, but especially... More

As I said to Mr. Wafik Doss, there are as many different types of tourists in Cairo as there are hotels. He is the proud and lucky owner of the “Windsor Hotel” just off 26th July street, very conveniently situated between the modern Downtown area and the Islamic quarter, near the Metro and close a variety of excellent local restaurants....

I have stayed at the Windsor three years in a row now. The reason I keep returning... I love the atmosphere, decor, and staff - and the quality of rooms for the price is great (get one facing the back small street, 2 floors up). The incredible bar - a throwback to another era - is a relaxing place to... More
