About Meramees Hostel Cairo

A budget-friendly Cairo stay close to Tahrir Square.

Meramees Hotel Cairo offers a relaxed, budget-friendly base in the heart of Downtown. Set on Sabri Abu Alam Street, just off Talaat Harb, the property sits among old bookstores, cafés, and the 20th-century facades that define central Cairo. Inside, the atmosphere is informal—tiled corridors, shared seating areas, and a staff presence at the front desk around the clock.

Rooms vary in size, but all include private bathrooms, WiFi, fresh linens, and air-conditioning. Breakfast is served each morning, and a shared kitchen is available for making quick meals. Travelers can also arrange airport transfers, day trips, or city tours directly through the hotel. Meramees keeps things straightforward, with daily housekeeping, laundry services, and a lived-in lounge for resting between outings.
