14 days in Novotel el Borg

zdenkokrapic Business - 03/08/2021 TripAdvisor review

Novotel El Borg hotel is located at nice place, it is perhaps good choice for the people who enjoy in noisy music almost all night. If you need some assistance from manager and reception staff, don’t expect too much. As frequent guest Accor hotels, I was requested prior and during booking to use Accor points. It was accepted during check in without any problem. 2 days prior departure, the lobby staff met me occasionally on the corridor and informed about some issue with my account. I was wondering why didn’t tell earlier by message in the room, email or phone as should be normal in such case. However I was called Accor service. The issue was existing password, so they proposed to change password and to send copy of my passport with burred data except name. I did it immediately and forwarded by email. The message from Accor customer assistant was in case of furteher trouble as quoted„ However, if you do not have the possibility to do so, you can go to one of our hotels to show you’re ID. This will enable them to check and confirm that you are the holder of the ALL account that is being suspended”. But it was not sufficient for Novotel staff, they rejected despite last message from Accor service in the mobile screen with open Accor account in front of desk staff, holding own passport as proof that I am owner.

One of the best value for money hotels

Ioannis B 27/07/2021 TripAdvisor review

Excellent hotel with great views from any room. I was lucky to have a room on the 6th floor and the sunset next to the Cairo Tower was everyday a revelation. The housekeeping staff was professional and friendly. Room was spacious and the air-condition an oasis after a long walk in Cairo. The roof top is a place where you can have a coffee or snack any time of the day. Definitely coming back.

I stayed in the same hotel for tow different days. As the first visit to Cairo it was nice and they upgraded my room to a suite. Next visit to the same hotel after 4 days my reservation was superior room with river view, I can’t sleep well because of the curtain not fixed well and the furniture in the room was too old and dirty. Most of the lights in the room not work. It was horrible for the 2nd visit to this hotel

The condition of the rooms was very bad compared to what I used to find in Accor hotels. Also, the receptionists were not good during the check-in process.

My experience with Novotel El Borg is always and excellent and enjoyable one , starting from the experience of the check in, which is, at all the times already prepared before I come, I just have to present my IDs and sign and receive the keys. Of course the location is one of the best if not the best on the Nile River.

Great location, great room, but had higher expectations on food and helpfulness of staff

Tea P. Couples - 22/05/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

We had a large room wit view on Nile. Room was very comfortable and view was splendid. We had dinner on rooftop, nice view and setting but food was mediocre and we were waiting quite a bit to get our dish. Also the waiter brought me wrong dish so I had to wait again. Hotel reception staff is not very helpful, they just keep calling manager for everything question we had, and reception manager didn’t help on any topic, actually didn’t even show any effort to do so. This was very disappointing and would make me give a much lower score to the hotel overall, but we found one receptionist that was really helpful, nice and pleasant to talk to. Her name is Merna. So we knew when we need something we should wait for Merna’s shift.
