Meramees Hostel فندق ميراميس

It's a wonderful experience with Meramees Hostel.The location of the Hostel in Cairo downtown.Services are very nice.Staff also nice. I am highly recommended to all travellers for the present stay.Thank you Meramees.

Booked a room for TWO people via booking. On arrival got informed by receptionist (whom was really nice) that my room is for one person. I showed him my booking on the app, he texted his boss and we were waiting for their response. They said we cannot stay as two in a single room (it was already prepaid before our arrival). They offered us a room for two but we had to add 6$. I tried to convince the receptionist, that we can somehow fit in a single room, our stay was just for one night... But boss disagreed... We paid that bonus cash and they asked us to follow another guy to our room. They took as for a walk for few streets and bring to another different hotel 10 min away from the original one.... The "new" room was awful, without a single window and really dusty. I tried to get that 6$ back from Booking.com customer service, but got refused since that offer was a "partnership offer" so it is managed fully by the hotel itself. My impression is they let you rent a single room for two people, and then, on place they ask for more money... Typical Egipt tourist scam.

My sister, Faritha stayed at the the Meramees Hostel and checked out today. Her stay at the Meramees Hostel was really great. The food was delicious and the lady serving the food was lovely and kind. The manager was also very kind, and told her to come back to the hostel if she had problems later in her trip. A lot of hostels would not do that so she felt very safe. The receptionist, Shaaban, was really kind and helpful. She would really recommend this hostel to anyone visiting Cairo, it’s super safe, welcoming and feels like home.

Meramees Hostel|January 2025. |First time to Egypt and Cairo. I arrived at midnight after being met outside the airport arrivals hall by a driver the hostel had pre-arranged. Manga at the front desk got me checked in, showed me to my room and worked with me on connecting to the good and fast wifi. Then he kindly brought me fresh, hot coffee with milk. So needed after 20 hours of various flights and transfers. He proceeded to bring me a coffee every morning of a six night stay as I am an early riser and always got up before the conclusion of his overnight shift.||I booked a double (twin) en-suite room at this hostel. The location is easy walking distance of Tahrir Square and Sadat Metro stop. The ensuite bath had a stand up shower with plenty of good pressure hot water. Sheets and towels provided. The beds were comfortable for both of us. In January the thick duvet was perfect for the cool nights. There was an armoire with hanging space, shelves and two spare blankets. This room also had a small fridge. I have already booked Meramees Hostel again for when I return to Cairo in a couple weeks.|||Food and drinks:|Probably the best hostel breakfast in Cairo. Huge portion of Pita, ful, fresh tomato, cucumber and carrot, wrapped cheese portions, egg and hot coffee. Will keep you going. I filled the pita pockets I couldn’t finish with the leftover bits for later.

I was been taken to Meramees from Australian hostel because it was overbooked though i paid. When i reach, there was some discussions and i am sure the guys are not happy and the receptionist was not welcoming. His attitude was like i came there to stay for free. In the previous hostel i paid including the breakfast when i was taken here they said its without breakfast though they charge more than the previous hostel. Overall ambience was not really great. i was being put in the upper floor where they pay less attention. there was cat poop in the sofa and was stinky. there is no proper monitoring in terms of cleanliness in the upper floor. then i had to go reception and tell them to clean it.

This was a beautiful hotel very clean the beds are so comfortable. Ac unit is great and refrigerator works wonderful. Mustafa was amazing he helped us so much! He let us check in super early when our check in was at 1pm and he also allowed us to check out late which helped us tremendously! He was super nice and very helpful,.

Great experience! I stayed in the dorm, the breakfast included was really nice. The staff are always around to make your stay awesome.

Very nice place and friendly staff. Clean rooms and comfortable bed. Excellent location. Thank you Mustafa.
