Friendly staff. A special thank you to Tony who served us breakfast each morning, so polite and kind. The room was clean although very noisy due to traffic outside. We were just a short taxi ride from the pyramid main entrance. The hotel would book a taxi when needed. A fantastic break away.

At first I was disappointed that the room I booked is a bit different from the ones in the Expedia. But after my 2 days , I was so happy . The bedsheets are immaculately clean. Free breakfast is good. Staff super to the max friendly. Complimentary tray of fruits all the time . and I had a very good sleep.

Did not receive the room (with balcony overlooking the pyramids) that we booked for well in advance.
Was given a room at back of hotel of much lesser value with no change in payment rate!!
Staff otherwise friendly. We were offered free meal to compensate.
Was extremely disappointing as the hotel was selected for the Room, location and the view.

The staff were a total knockout!! They were incredibly accommodating and super lovely.
The rooms are dated but decent enough to stay.
Due to dated nature, the room didn’t feel as clean as I’d like it.
Honestly though, the staff made up for it for me. Excellent!!!

We booked thr Gaia, but were sent to one of their sister properties, Panorama Pyramid Inn! The rooms were smaller than those pictured here , but still comfortable & clean. A/C in the unit. There is one small elevator, which holds 2-3 ppl at a time. The roofttop restaurant has a spectacular view of the pyramids! Be prepared to be overwhelmed with all sorts of Egyptian options for breakfast!! The staff truly ks remarkable and will make you feel rjght at home..

This is not the hotel it's more like motel/hostel.
The location is nice but lot of construction right in front of place and super noisy on street facing. it's not the hotel it looks like Motel. Not worth the price. They run on law staff for Breakfast in the morning. The standard room and bathroom are too small and crowded.

The employees were absolutely phenomenal. From recalling previous orders to ensuring that you receive everything that you need. Alex, Tony, Omar, you made our stay wonderful. You can hear traffic at night but that will be the case anywhere that you stay. I slept fine but my wife needed ear plugs. No big deal. Thanks again!

Our check-in was excellent despite being too late at night. Saif and Omar were ready to be receiving us and took care of all. Very professional guys at work. The staff attention couldn't be better, as it was in our three days before. Everybody willing to help all the time, pending on your needs and requirements. Restaurant doing a good job on the top floor with a wonderful view of the Pyramids. Good food and good variety. Again, Rana and Merna went the extra mile to take care of us, thing we appreciate too much. Safe and attentive drivers for transportation from and to the airport. All the best. Honestly. Highly will recommend this hotel to family and friends. Eduardo

Of course the strong point of this hotel is the location, very close to the three pyramids of Giza, which you can watch directly from the hotel terrace and restaurant area on the beautiful top floor. But there is another point even stronger: the staff quality from top to bottom. I need to mention the super excellent attention given to the four of us by Rana, the top supervisor, in contact with us since the very beginning of the reservation day. She organized several tours and airport transportation with Excelent punctuality, and Excelent guides and vehicles, meeting our expectations and requirements. Rana and Merna runs this hotel smoothly and make you feeling like at home anytime. The rest of the staff are all the time pending on your needs and requests. Honestly I don’t think there are other hotels better on this important topic. When it comes to the food and drinks, the hotel has a five star restaurant installed at the top floor, with an amazing view to the pyramids. Kudos to Alex and Tony there for their excellent service. Thanks a lot to Rana for her special and personalized attention all time, all above expectations. I would repeat our visit at anytime in the future, and recommend this property to family and friends. Nothing could be better!!👍👍👍

My vacation/anniversary at The Gaia hotel was a complete disaster!!! Before we left the states to go to the Gaia, I read the reviews like we all do and saw some people talk about how they were being sent to other hotels upon arriving to Egypt to go to the Gaia. I called the Gaia to voice our concerns about this and they assured us that this was an isolated incident and we had nothing to worry about and our reservations for the Jr. suite is good.
When we arrived to Egypt, the hotel sent a driver to pick us up from the airport. The driver then proceeds to take us to another hotel called the Shadow Inn. This is at 1am and on our anniversary. We were angry and hurt.
We complained to the front desk at the Shadow hotel and called and complained to the Gaia. We explained that this is wrong and that we’re Americans trying to enjoy their country. Their response was the suite that we reserved at the Gaia had water damage and electrical problems. This was a lie and made matters worst. They offered to let us stay at this hotel. What choice did we have??? We stayed there for 2 nights. On the 3rd night, they called and said our room was ready. At this point, what did it matter?? We only had one more night in Egypt. We decided to go to the Gaia.
The Customer service manager decided to speak to us. She admitted that the truth was that they overbooked and blamed Expedia for the mixup. That sounded like another lie.
Take caution when booking at the Gaia.

Don't be fooled by the pictures - they're scammers
We had booked 1 night for New Year's Eve in the suite with a jacuzzi and a terasse overlooking the pyramids, several months in advance. I've read some bad reviews from previous guests saying they did not get the room they booked so I even whatsapped them 1 month before arrival to confirm our booking and that the pictures online of the room is what we will get. They said yes. Upon arrival and checkin they told us to wait a little without further explanation. When we asked why it took so long they said that the room we had booked was not available, but that they had a "room with similar standard and good view a couple minutes away from here", we said no we wanted our room, but they refused and kept saying they had electricity problems so that's why our room was not available. I asked to see the room with electricity problems but they couldn't show me, I think they doublebook as a strategy. With no choice, we took a look at the room they wanted to give us instead. It took 20 minutes to drive to their sister hotel and the room was awful, the view was also not good and it was really noisy outside. It was dirty and not at all the same standards. I contacted hotels.com to transfer me and in the process they refused to pick up the phone from hotels.com that tried to settle the case with them. Thankfully we managed to transfer to another hotel through hotels.com but I would not ever risk bookig there again. Trust the negative reviews, it's not worth it to risk ruin your holiday!

I love staying here at the Gaia Pyramids.
Having travelled a fair bit i can honestly say that here i feel so welcome.
Shahd Mena Omar Mazen Rana Ismail Tony Alex Zain Rawan & all the other staff members throughout this hotel do a FANTASTIC job.
They are kind & helpful.🏆
There is a roof top restaurant with a decent selection of meals snacks deserts milkshakes & fruit cocktails on the menu.
I enjoyed very much dinner with that amazing view while watching the sun go down.
The rooms have a fridge & are clean & comfortable.
They provide a laundry service here also an ATM machine is very close by as are gift shops & a pharmacy.
There is a small gym on the premises also.

Great Hotel to visit Pyramids
Perfect location for a pyramids visit. Very Noisy area though as the roads are chaotic.
The staff were all brilliant and went over and above to help us out when we had a family medical issue, even sending a member of staff with us to the hospital to translate.
Rooms are small but convenient and clean,
Rooftop Restaurant is nice and cheap with a good selection, and incredible views
No other reason to stay in the area though unless you want to venture to the chaos of Giza itself.

The Gaia Pyramids has an amazing view of the Pyramids and the staff provide the most welcoming and excellent service attending to your needs better than some of the higher end hotels. Shahd, Tony, Ismail made our stay worth staying. However the rooms and location was not a welcoming stay. The hotel is located on a main road and that means beeping horns, cars, lorries and truck noises all day and all night. The windows and doors are not sound proof, the breakfast is ok, but not hot its best to state you want the breakfast to be hot. Alternative breakfasts provided were much more tastier like the traditional Egyptian couscous, (this is not on the menu). There were a number of blackouts due to the electricity meter running out. Upon arrival our room with a view was far too noisy to stay in, the hotel was kind enough to change the room for us, however this was a downgraded room the TV didn't work, the bathroom smelt of sewage water and the there was no view a price we paid for a quieter nights sleep. Unfortunately the noise was this the same. If you are staying for a short stay and want to be near the Grand Egyptian Museum or the Pyramids then Gaia is a potential.

The staff was friendly every time we spoke to them but we had issues from the beginning to the end. We had to wait an hour for our room just to discover it was the wrong room. We were told we would be moved and ended up being taken to another hotel completely; just to get a room worse than the first. The lights also went out at this new location. Overall a poor experience.
