Sahara Desert, Africa hotel rooms at the Independent

"The depiction of this hotel in the pictures is exactly how it looks in reality. The customer service and attention to the extra needs of the guest is unquestionably the priority for the staff. The breakfast is very generous and the staff at the restaurant are always very polite and attentive to their guests. The hotel has everything we needed. The room was very clean. With enough space for the luggage. The beds were very comfortable. Crispy sheets and pleasant smell. The view from our room and the rooftop was magnificent, really beautiful, so perfect that it looked like a postcard. The AC worked perfectly. The surroundings could be better, but that is not the responsibility of the hotel staff. These people really go above and beyond to satisfy their guests. We stayed 4 nights and would stay there again. "

"Great hotel "

"Very nice Elegant Spacious "

"I stayed at Marriott Mena House and it exceeded all expectations. The location is perfect, just steps away from the Pyramids of Giza, with the most incredible view you can imagine. My room looked directly at the Great Pyramid and waking up to that sight was absolutely unforgettable. The property is well maintained with lush gardens, a beautiful pool, and a blend of modern comfort and historic charm. Service was excellent. Staff were attentive, friendly, and always willing to help. Breakfast overlooking the pyramids was another highlight of my stay. If you visit, I recommend booking a Pyramid View room. It is more expensive but worth every cent for the once-in-a-lifetime experience. Overall, this is the best hotel in Giza and I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Cairo."

"The staff are very polite, nice and helpful, specially Hassan he is very nice and helpful guy. Thank you Hassan for your service."

"The entire staff goes above and beyond. Special shout out to Maria in the pink jacket! House keeping was great. Restaurants were nice. Pool attendants did a great job. This property was under some mild construction but you will easily forgive that for the rich palace history and amazing detail. Very happy with our stay."
