From Amman to Cairo

We flew from Amman to Cairo on Royal Jordanian Airline. Our last hotel was Soffitel La Sphinx located very close to the Pyramids (see the photo to be convinced). This was our 7th hotel during the trip. Hotel grading in Egypt is meaningless. In Cairo don't ever check-in into any 4-star hotel or lower.

1) Cairo - Hotel Maadi, supposed to be 4-star but looked like 2-star.
2) Aswan - Hotel Isis, nice hotel on the river bank.
3) Luxor - Le Merridien Hotel, excellent, voted as the 6th best hotel in whole Africa
4) Nuweiba - Nuweiba Village Resort, nice and a typical beach hotel.
5) Petra - Grand View Hotel, nice but seems to be overwhelmed coping with full house.
6) Petra - Petra Panaromic Hotel, excellent and good view.
7) Cairo - Soffitel La Sphinx - a typical Soffitel chain - always excellent.
