02Overview
A first look
Kemet Pyramids View Hotel is a compact Giza property with rooftop sightlines to Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure. Drive time to the Giza Plateau is about 10–15 minutes (approximately 3 km).
Background
The facts
Kemet Pyramids View Hotel is a three-star hotel on Abu al-Houl Al-Siyaha in the Giza area of Cairo. It provides air-conditioned rooms, complimentary Wi-Fi, an on-site restaurant and bar, and a compact garden. Some rooms have views towards the Great Pyramid of Khufu; the view depends on room allocation.
The hotel is in the Giza area, near the Giza Plateau, where the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the Pyramid of Khafre, the Pyramid of Menkaure and the Great Sphinx of Giza stand. The Egyptian Museum is in central Cairo, so visits to the museum and the Giza monuments involve travel between the two areas.
The Giza pyramid fields form part of the UNESCO-listed Memphis and its Necropolis site. The pyramids were built during Egypt’s Old Kingdom, principally in the Fourth Dynasty, around the 26th century BCE. The Great Pyramid was built for King Khufu, while the Great Sphinx is generally associated with King Khafre.
Hotel facilities listed include a front desk with concierge assistance, laundry service, a restaurant, a bar and Wi-Fi in rooms and public areas. Airport shuttle service is available on request. Check-in times, meal-plan details and any locally payable tourism or city taxes should be confirmed for the selected booking.

Suited to
Is this for you?
Yes, if
- Kemet Pyramids View Hotel suits budget-conscious couples, independent travellers and adults making a short stay in Giza. It is a practical choice if you want to visit the Giza Plateau early and would rather stay near the pyramids than in central Cairo.
Maybe not, if
- Choose a full-service hotel in central Cairo if you want extensive facilities or a wider choice of services on site. The simple three-star setting may also not suit travellers who need confirmed step-free access.
What lingers
- 01Rooms labelled 'Pyramids View' face the Giza Plateau; roof terrace offers direct sightlines to Khufu and Khafre.
- 02Typical car transfer to the Giza Plateau takes 10–15 minutes by private car, depending on Cairo traffic.
- 03Breakfast service begins 06:00 for early departures; we arrange 05:30 private transfers on request.
- 04We use private cars only – no coach pick-ups – for Cairo International Airport and pyramid transfers.
- 05Pyramid-view rooms trade quieter inner courtyards for closer views; expect variable street noise evenings.

Field notes
From our Egyptologists

Confirm the selected board basis before arrival; meals and drinks outside it may be charged separately.
- 03
Check whether you need the airport shuttle when booking, as it is available on request and is not included by default.
- 04
Request any parking or non-smoking room preference when booking; availability is subject to confirmation.

Make it yours
You can select a different board basis when booking, subject to the available rate. Ask us about arranging the airport shuttle or a longer stay; these are not included in the room rate.
All requests handled by your dedicated specialist before booking.
Where it fits

Accessibility
Who can join this
Kemet Pyramids View Hotel is a compact property in Giza, but step-free access is not available throughout. The lobby and main restaurant are on level floors; some room blocks and the garden are reached by steps, and internal paths may have uneven paving. A limited number of ground-floor rooms with wider doorways may be available on request, but roll-in showers are not confirmed. There is no verified provision for mobility scooters. Please tell us about wheelchair access, bathroom grab rails or other mobility needs before booking so we can check what can be arranged. Availability cannot be guaranteed.
Before you go
What to pack & wear
Children & families
Children are welcome. Infants aged 0 to 2 typically stay free when using existing bedding. Children aged 3 to 11 may have a reduced rate when an extra bed is needed. Cots and rollaway beds depend on availability and need to be requested in advance. Full-size strollers can be awkward in tight corridors and around steps; a lightweight stroller is more practical. High chairs can be requested for the restaurant.
Indicative rates only – pricing and rooms fluctuate. Please enquire for live rates on your specific dates.
Location
The setting
Kemet Pyramids View Hotel is listed in Cairo. The information provided does not identify its neighbourhood, address, nearby landmarks or transport links, so these cannot be described reliably. Please confirm the hotel’s location details before publication; Cairo is a large city, and the city name alone is not enough to explain what is nearby or how guests can get around.

Asked & answered
Frequent questions
01How close is Kemet Pyramids View Hotel to the Pyramids?
Kemet Pyramids View Hotel is in Cairo adjacent to the Giza Plateau area and intended for stays near the pyramids. Proximity depends on the hotel's location and room; Cairo traffic affects drive times. Unlike same‑day tours run from central Cairo, staying here means you can start visits earlier and avoid longer transfer windows.02Do rooms at Kemet Pyramids View Hotel have views of the Pyramids?
Some rooms at Kemet Pyramids View Hotel offer views of the Giza Pyramids, but views are not guaranteed. We request pyramid‑view rooms at booking and the hotel allocates them subject to availability. If a guaranteed view is essential, tell us at enquiry and we will note it on your reservation; the hotel ultimately confirms availability.03Can you arrange airport transfers and day trips from the hotel?
Yes – as a licensed Egyptian tour operator we arrange private airport transfers and guided day trips from the hotel. Our drivers meet you at reception, handle luggage and follow agreed pickup times; transfer durations vary with Cairo traffic. We do not automatically place clients on shared coach transfers – private vehicles are our standard unless you request otherwise.04What are the hotel's check‑in and check‑out times?
Check‑in and check‑out follow the hotel's policy and we confirm the exact times at booking. Many Cairo hotels use a 14:00 check‑in and 12:00 check‑out as a guideline; early arrival or late departure can often be requested but depends on room availability. We will arrange luggage storage at the hotel if your room is not yet ready.05Is the hotel suitable for families with children?
Kemet Pyramids View Hotel accepts families, with room configurations and child policies set by the hotel. We can request extra beds or interconnecting rooms where available and will confirm child rates at booking. Note practicalities for family outings: visits to the Giza Plateau involve uneven stone, steps and sometimes early starts.06Are meals included with a one‑night stay at the hotel?
Meal inclusion depends on the room rate you select; some rates include breakfast while others are room‑only. We will confirm the board basis when you book and can add meals or catering for day trips on request. There are nearby restaurants and hotel dining options; we can recommend choices based on your schedule.

Cosmopolitan Hotel Cairo, Cairo
One night at the Cosmopolitan Hotel Cairo is offered as a short stopover option in our Cairo programmes. We arrange private airport or railway transfers and flexible check‑in to match international flight schedules. We use this hotel primarily for practical overnight stays rather than extended Cairo holidays. Unlike airport hotels, this option places you inside the city for quicker access to central Cairo landmarks such as the Egyptian Museum or Coptic Cairo in the evening. Rooms and on-site facilities are configured for short stays; do not expect resort-style leisure amenities. As a licensed Egyptian tour operator, we can add an early-morning pickup or a pre-departure briefing on request.
