Frommer's "This is certainly the best value for money in Zamalek, and possibly in Cairo." Full review
Insight Guides "A well-kept secret among those who visit Cairo often, the Longchamps feels more like a Parisian private house than a hotel, and is well managed by the helpful Heba Bakri and her husband Chris."
Fodor's "This lovely little bed-and-breakfast-style hotel is on the upper floors of a medium-sized tower block, offering a quiet refuge from the city." Full review
DK Eyewitness "With only 22 rooms, the Longchamps tends to be booked weeks in advance. It’s a homely hotel with good, clean rooms and a fine restaurant, and there are plenty of shops and restaurants nearby."
Rough Guide Star
"Spotless, quiet and well-run three-star hotel with a/c, satellite TV, internet connection and a fridge in all rooms, plus a pleasant terrace and meals available."

Rough Guide Star
"A very laidback hostel that’s like a beach camp from the Red Sea backpacker resort of Dahab transported – surprisingly convincingly – to the roof of a building in downtown Cairo."
