The Ramses Hilton Cairo

In the early days we used to stay at the Ramses Hilton right bang in the centre of Cairo. It was so easy to walk to the Egyptian Museum and into Tahrir Square. Well, not actually 'easy' since the entire area is a melange of flyovers and incredibly busy roads. Many tour operators have now taken off Cairo central hotels and replaced them with very touristy ones safely out at Giza next to the pyramids. We have also been to a couple of these. They are lovely but there's no immediate access to Cairo itself.
