Orchida

Cheap and cheerful
The Orchida is great for a cheap and cheerful hostel. It is clean, the staff are helpful and courteous, and the breakfasts are filling if a little boring. It is a safe place to stay. The location is perfect, at the heart of everything, and the view over the Nile from the roof terrace is unbeatable. A bit noisy at times, as you would expect, but definitely value for money if you are on a budget.
