“This is a guesthouse that stands out for its Nile views, best enjoyed from the rooftop restaurant. The location on the West Bank provides a relaxing environment, and the staff is attentive to individual needs, while rooms are spacious, if a bit dated. I find the sunset sailing on a falucca a must.”
