I have to say that I was extremely impress about the Radisson Blu Helio in Cairo. I have had the oportunity to stay before in other Radisson Blu Hotel´s in Berlin and Copenhaguen, so I decided to try it in Cairo because the quality of service in Radisson Hotels was exremely good and the price they were offering in Cairo was within my budget.
The Hotel is located 5 minute drive from the Cairo airport; This was the best point since my original plan was to stay 2 days in Cairo and then transfer to a Nile Cruise in Luxor. Cairo traffic can always be a mess so this is a good location to avoid traffic going back to the airport.
I ask the Hotel to arrange an itinerary to Luxor and Aswan in a cruise, since I could not do it in a web page from my country, They were kind enough to coordinate everything to my needs on a budget that was within my range. They also prepare me a personalized tour of the Giza pyramids and the Egiption museum for my first day in cairo.
The hotel room was extremely good, it had the following amenities that any traveler will look for:
- Free WIFI Internet through the hotel
- International Power plugs throughout the whole room, no need to have power adaptors for your appliances (computer, cellphone chargers, or hair dryers)
- LCD Television with Cable TV
- Comfortable Bed
- Sofa with Tea Table
- Modern full Bathroom, good shower preasure and a toilet-bidet integrated.
They have a friendly staff, comitted to 100% Radisson customer satisfaction and I must agree that it is more than 100% satisfaction based on the quality and price I paid.
I will recoomend anyone visiting Cairo for bussines or transfers to cruises in Luxor or Aswan to consider staying in Radisson Blu Helio in Cairo.
