This hotel is in a very unique location along the Nile, close to some museums and central. But the area it resides within is very old and nearly impossible to navigate on foot with the traffic patterns. It seems the group of larger hotels along the river to the north would be better suited for getting out and exploring, but still, Intercontinental Semiramis has an outstanding breakfast, a lot of restaurant choices, a really nice pool, and well-trained and friendly staff. I would definitely recommend this hotel!

Overall the hotel was lovely, it is in an ideal location - and the staff were super helpful and lovely. However the noise at night was terrible, We didn’t sleep well at all which impacted our trip and caused cancellations of trips we had planned first thing in the morning. Unfortunately this made the stay in the hotel a miserable one.
