Our stay was disappointing. Room was smaller than expected. When we asked for a better we realised it was the old ‘bait and switch’ pay me more. The room we had had not been cleaned properly, carpet was dirty and bothered my partner’s allergies. When asked they finally changed the bedding. Most of the staff we dealt with from receptionist, cleaning staff, servers in restaurants gave us the feeling that all were just hustling for tips. Cancelled the out second stay back from the Cruise and Hurghada moving from Kempinski to Ramses Hilton - better hotel and lower cost. My impression is that Kempinski has lost its mojo and just wants attracting guest based on prior reputation.

Thought the hotel was a really nice stay. As a 5* expectations are set very high and overall felt the hotel fairly well met but didn’t exceed these/excite. Rooms felt a little small and dated, but overall service was good, location was nice, breakfast had a good variety and generally fair to good food. Cafe was excellent (atmosphere and food). Having stayed at two other 5* hotels on the same holiday albeit in a different country, the Kempinski was certainly not the best of the three but nonetheless a nice place all the same

Disappointing Stay Despite High Hopes

Check-in took an unnecessarily long 20-25 minutes, as our host was preoccupied speaking in Arabic with two employees who, by contrast, were efficiently helping other guests in just 5-7 minutes. After finally checking in, we entered a warm room with no functioning AC. The first technician who came suggested we "increase the temperature and wait 10 minutes" – an absurd solution. Frustrated, I called the front desk again, and a proper technician resolved the issue in 5 minutes. Next came the ordeal of connecting to the hotel’s Internet. It should have been simple: enter my last name and room number. Instead, we had no connection. Worse yet, I was repeatedly promised IT help, only to have two hotel employees arrive and, without permission, touch my laptop while questioning the spelling of my last name. What made matters worse was the lack of attentiveness during check-in. I was traveling with a family member in a wheelchair. Later, I was taking a relaxing bath with the beautiful view – but my room was located directly in front of a prayer tower. While I respect cultural norms, the loud calls to prayer starting as early as 5:00 AM and continuing throughout the day until 6:45 PM. Westerners: avoid 5th floor rooms facing Nile River. Also the hotel-provided hair dryer didn’t fit the room’s outlets. Next day, our Muslim neighbours started singing loud, clapping with also very loud music at 4 AM. Breakfast that you pay extra had bad sour coffee, bad food, next day they changed chef.
