This hotel is a real 5 Star hotel, albeit not the best you've seen but certainly an impressive one. I was in Cairo on business and had meetings, seminars and dinners with clients and potential customers at the Fairmont and it didnt fail to impress me. The Good - service is excellent even though slightly different to expectations of westerners,... More

This hotel is a real five star hotel. It is close to the airport. If you send an email, they will come and pick you up at the airport. The driver will wait for you at the luggage pick up area and even organise your visa. The staff is very friendly. The food is excellent. The rooms have all the... More

Fairmont Towers is only a 10 minute shuttle ride from Cairo airport, which for those familiar with Cairo, is a very short journey. The accomodation is to a reasonable standard, but don't expect the quality of a Dubai or Muscat hotel. The rooms are very clean, but in some places looking a little tired. There are numerous restaurants within the... More

During my initial expatriation phase, stayed four months in this top quality premises, a mere 10 minutes drive from CAI's International Airport. Enjoying President's Club privileges, I really hit the Jackpot. Without exception, staff was extremely helpful, friendly and committed to go for that extra effort and make you feel like at home. After such a long period however, variety... More

All was nearly excellent except for that malfunction at the room's toilet flush which caused water leakage and consequently has wasted like 2 hours of my one night getaway stay; as the maintainance team has not correctly dealt with the situation. However the food was superb at breakfast, lunch and dinner. Snacks lounge is simply awesome. Pool is outstanding, room's... More

Overall experience: Good. I stayed there twice, I went for the all inclusive deal which is a bit pricy, but worth it. It includes room and all meals, including bars and room service, anytime, any size but no alcohol, sheesha or Massage. The staff are extremely helpful and nice. In all there are about 10 restaurants int he hotel, I... More

It is a five star hotel so you expect to get the full deal. Well, things started very well. Knowing what traffic means in Cairo, i was happy to be in the hotel within 15' from the airport. So in terms of location if you're in the city for business purposes, that's a plus (there are convenient meeting rooms). Reception... More

I found the Fairmont Towers overall, very good. I will lay out the pros and cons and let you decide for yourself. The hotel is new and modern. There are 2 hotels on the same property. The Fairmont Heliopolis is an older (80s?) hotel. I'm told rooms are basic, small and just ok. The Fairmont Towers are much nicer and... More

A nice hotel with friendly staff. My room was facing the lobby/restaurant area and as it was only on the second floor i had to keep the window curtains closed. This made the room feel a bit small and dark. Apart from that, hotel rooms are modern and feature a large bed with a sitting area and desk. The bathroom... More
