Holy Sheet Hostel

Super easy to meet people due to the small common area. Center of downtown so walkable to sooo many places. Tours the hostel offers are cheaper than anywhere else too so I do recommend booking them here. Also note for people on 2nd floor, there are multiple floors. 4th floor has the common area. Met a group of 3 English lads who didn't know this and thought the hostel was boring so heads up haha. Don't spend 3 days alone. Go to the 4th floor.

Good price. Good staff. Perfect location right in the middle of Downtown Cairo. Met a lot of new interesting likeminded people.

This hostel was amazing, really great location, very nice and private bathrooms (which is hard to come by in a hostel), big beds, nice balcony, lovely staff! The staff really care for you, they go above and beyond and always have a smile on their face and they are ready to help you with anything you need. Shout out to mustafa he was so kind and helpful during my stay :)

Good location, close to a lot of things like restaurants, bakeries, shops. You could pretty much rock up with nothing but your bank card and your passport and get kitted out from shops in the area. Staff spoke very good English and helped organize tours, gave transportation advice, rated museums etc. Bedrooms had enormous lockers at the bottoms of the bunkers, could easily fit a whole suitcase in there. Rooms also have a row of hooks for each bunkbed MORE HOSTELS SHOULD FOLLOW THEIR EXAMPLE, total godsend in a dorm. Each bed had privacy curtains, an outlet, and a reading lamp. The 4th floor also had a drinking water dispenser, so could refill my bottle everyday, very grateful for that. There were two fridges to store food and a tiny kitchenette if you wanted to cook

I was traveling solo in Egypt and I decided to book a hostel rather than a hotel. Wanees Hostel was amazing, great facilities, the staff is very friendly and helpful when I needed them. They are also very responsive via Whatsapp in everything I was asking for anytime during the day - even late in the night to request for a wake up alarm. I totally recommend it and it's worth it even for small groups, solo travelers or even group trips. You are in the heart of the downtown city centre. Despite the fact that the entrance of the building in the first look may put you second thoughts just go uptairs and you will get used to it. Super friendly the guys there. The hostel is very clean, with well-maintained rooms and bathrooms. You can tell the staff really care about keeping the place comfortable and tidy. Speaking of the staff, they were incredibly kind and helpful — always smiling, offering great tips about the area, helping with tours, and even assisting with transportation. The location is perfect — close to everything, easy to find, and in a safe and quiet area. If there’s a rooftop or terrace, the view and vibe are just the cherry on top — the perfect place to relax after a long day of exploring. The price is very reasonable for what you get — great service, comfort, and a memorable stay. It’s definitely great value for money. I highly recommend Wanees Hostel to solo travelers, backpackers, and anyone looking to experience authentic hospitality in a cozy, friendly environment. I’d definitely stay here again!
