It's important to understand that staying in a Cairo neighborhood is vastly different than staying at a Nile river resort. Giza, near the Pyramids is gritty. It's safe, but it's definitely not fancy. The hotel is wonderful. Breakfast is good. There is no elevator.

Great place for a couple days to see the pyramids and other sights around Giza. I would get a separate hotel for when you want to sight see around Cairo to save a long commute. Overall, good place to stay.

A lovely old Egyptian house feel inside this lovely guesthouse, in a well appointed position, right over looking the Sphinx and Giza Pyramids. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The night was a little noisy with the window open with packs of street dogs enjoying themselves and as it happens...building and repair works at the pyramids themselves taking place in the cool of the night - but one could shut curtains and put an air conditioner on. Perfect.

Location to destination very accessible. Property location perfect. Nice and friendly front desk staff. All good except the hallway / stairway going up to the hotel rooms and front desk stinks. It smells like old dried fish. Walls needs to be washed and scented I guess. The place location is perfect.

The location is amazing and both of brothers who runs this hotel are simply the best, caring and, they really make you feel like home. They went above and beyond to make me a satisfied customer. The downside is the dog barks early in the am and goes on for hours, a lot of street begging right outside hotel however I felt safe. Restaurants and markets very close to the hotel. I would definitely recommend.

What a beautiful area to spend 8 nights! A family operated business with a welcoming air, very accommodating, kind and welcoming! Thank You to Ahmed and Mahmoud who were always there to take care of any of my needs! Used Guardian house service for a day excursion to Alexandria and thoroughly enjoyed my day. Thank You very much to Mother of Ahmed and Mahmoud (sorry I didn’t get her name) for the wonderful meal she was gracious enough to offer me one of my days there! Scenery from room and rooftop of the Giza Plateau, the Great Pyramids and Sphinx are fabulous and the hospitality that I received are unequalled! I appreciate Mohammeds responding to my questions and emails! Thank You Again “Guardian Guest House”!

Akmed, helped us a lot…cannot eat in the room. Dusty furniture. But they served satisfying breakfast. Best place to see the Pyramids from your room window. Don’t pay for the light and sound show

Located very conveniently across from the pyramids, so easy access to visit there. The staff even helped me get my tickets without having to wait in the long line. There is a tour company owned by the sane people who own the hotel so it was easy to get day tours added onto my stay for Cairo, Saqqara, and Memphis. The driver and guide I was provided were excellent. The area around the hotel has some shops and dining options, but a lot of loud nightly construction was going on right outside my room, so I did not sleep very well during my stay. The staff, however, were great. Everyone is very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was included and it was decent aside from no fresh coffee being available, only instant.

The hotel staffs are very nice & accommodating. The view from the roof top is excellent & the breakfast is decent. However this area is very noisy. We heard people talking/yelling in the street & lots of dogs barking all night, which made it very hard for us to sleep. Due to its proximity to the pyramids, it’s a good hotel for a 1 or 2 nights stay. Btw, the Pyramid restaurant close to the hotel has excellent foods. Their grilled lamb chop is excellent

Solo traveler
For those who are solo travelers and looking for in-person service and security, I highly recommend Guardian Guest House. Special thanks to Ratiba, Mahmoud and his brother, Mohammed the driver. Mahmoud and his brother were able to book a tour to Luxor for me last minute, and accommodate with other tours. It was a pleasure to travel with Mohammed, was so kind to treat me with felafel and beans egg wrap. We drove to a lady who was giving away free home cooked food, it’s delicious. The tour guides Guardian Guest House arranged are professionals and thoughtful. I absolutely recommend Guardian Guest House and looking forward to returning soon.
