New Star Zamalek Hotel

I had a sitting room, bedroom and bathroom. Everything including floors, beds and bed linen, the bathroom, toilet and shower, was super clean. The shower has good water pressure. The bed was very firm.. Everything worked. The location is really good. You don't feel like you're staying in a modern 5 star hotel, but for the money this is a very good hotel.

L’emplacement est sympa, en plein centre de zamalek, nous aurions aimé savoir qu’il y avait des travaux tout juste dans la rue mais il n’y avait pas trop de bruit. Le personnel est sympa. Petit hic: ils n’acceptent pas de visiteurs dans les chambres, alors, la chambre étant au nom de mes parents, nous devions constamment les attendre dans la ball et ne pouvions monter pour dîner avec eux dans la chambre par exemple. A part cela, l’hôtel est sympa et la déco également, mais je n’y retournerai pas

A very bed room. The quilt was dirty and the hotel should not be characterized as a 3-star hotel.

Zimmer war sehr schön und sauber . Die Lage war optimal .

I have been to Cairo a fair bit in the past and will definitely stay in this hotel again. It was good value for the price, in a quiet location (ignore other on-line reviews about the noisy school oppposite - kids don't arrive until 0730 hrs), easy access to both sides of the Nile, passable breakfast included, lots of Ubers nearby and good shops. Staff were very hepful. Room was clean & comfortable and everything worked in the bathroom.

Actually not a bad hotel and we enjoyed the stay. Lost a star because the girls in reception were rather unhelpful.

New Star Hotel is situated on the island Zamalek on the Nile in the centre of Cairo. This is the most exclusive part of the city with many embassies and international schools for the children of diplomats who live and work here. The hotel is located in a quiet side street away from the hustle and bustle of the main thoroughfare that runs through Zamalek but you can reach the main street with its many shops and restaurants in a few minutes walk. The museum and Tahir Square are not too far across the bridge over the river. New Star is one of the cheaper hotels in this rather expensive area but it offers good value for money. The staff are very helpful and the chambermaid Nadeh will keep your room spotless and clean.

Location was ok for getting to Cairo Tower. It is a long walk to Downtown and better getting a taxi. The room was clean and staff were nice
