My stay at the Intercontinental Cairo Semiramis was a mix of great location and disappointing room quality. The lobby area is stunning, and the breakfast buffet was impressive with a wide variety of options. However, the rooms felt outdated, and cleanliness was below the expected standard, especially for such a prestigious hotel brand.
Rooms
6.0
I stayed in a Nile-facing room, which was supposed to be spacious, but mine was dated and even after three room changes, I still faced issues like small bathrooms and smoke odors. The bedding was comfortable, but the pillows were rock-hard. I expected better for the price.

However, the service experience was inconsistent, with frustrations during the check-in process.

My stay at Intercontinental Cairo Semiramis was a mixed experience. On one hand, the hotel's central location and beautiful Nile views were undeniable perks.

The hotel had some good facilities, including a nice lounge and a spa, but they were overshadowed by the issues I faced. The hotel maintained a sense of elegance, but it needs more significant attention to detail and updates.
