Boasting a shared lounge, terrace and views of city, Madina Hostel is situated in Cairo, 300 metres from Tahrir Square. The property is around 500 metres from The Egyptian Museum, 1.8 km from Cairo Tower and 3.5 km from Al-Azhar Mosque. The accommodation features a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, a shared kitchen and free WiFi throughout the property. We stayed in a 2-bed room, so I can’t even call this place a hostel. I mean, it has all the benefits of a hotel, while still being a hostel with a community you can mingle with. The room was cozy and nice, with a fantastic view from the balcony. Besides, even if you're staying in a different room, you can still visit the shared rooftop terrace. It’s spacious, and the view from there is even better. Breakfasts were great, and the shared toilets were clean. The cherry on top was the people who work there - modern Egyptians. Big shoutout to Mostafa and Abdelrahman! They truly made our trip.

The entrance will seem strange at first but once you take the elevator upstairs it’s like a new world and is very nice. Thanks for everything. It was too great. I ended up coming back the following week too because it was so nice. Especially the price point.

Heaven Hostel is located in Cairo, within less than 1 km of Tahrir Square and a 17-minute walk of The Egyptian Museum. The property is set 2.3 km from Mosque of Ibn Tulun, 2.6 km from Cairo Tower and 2.8 km from Al-Azhar Mosque. The accommodation provides a shared kitchen, a shared lounge and luggage storage for guests. I decided to book this hostel because it looks neat, clean and location is in the center, near the Egyptian Museum. We stayed here only 2 nights, separately 1st and last night in Egypt. They let us use the public restroom at the day we already checked out, before moving to night bus to go to Qena, kept our luggage without any charging during our trip to Luxor, Aswan, until the day we were back to Cairo. They also offers laundry service in good price. Furthermore, you can book private trip through the hostel, e.g. to the pyramids. Additionally, the reception is always (24/7) occupied, helping us at our late checkin and early morning checkout, the staff is truly amazing! They are always happy to assist no matter what, and you can easily contact them via WhatsApp at any time. Thanks to the owner Abdo, his brother and everyone else at the hostel - I had an amazing stay in Egypt.
