Ismailia House Inn Cairo

A no-frills downtown stay positioned directly on Tahrir Square.

Ismailia House Inn sits above the rhythm of Tahrir Square, offering a central base for travelers who want Cairo’s energy right below their window. The building is older, but rooms remain functional with air-conditioning, private bathrooms, tiled floors, and WiFi. Some units feature balconies or wide city views—useful for getting a sense of downtown without stepping into the streets.

The inn keeps services straightforward: daily housekeeping, a 24-hour front desk, and optional airport transfers. Guests can settle into the shared lounge before heading out, or walk directly into the square where cafés, kiosks, and transport routes converge. Its appeal lies in the location—steps from the Egyptian Museum, the metro, and the city’s busiest crossroads.
