The hotel is situated in a less than blooming garden/park and the entrance is awkward due to construction. It's located away from central Alexandria, which makes eating out inconvenient. Nothing is within walking distance and everything is on the opposite side of the city. However, the room is pretty nice and the view is more than pleasant. There's a palace... more

My wife and I stayed for two nights as part of a tour organised through Kuoni. This is a pleasant modern hotel insulated from the chaotic street life of Alexandria by being inside a guarded park. Our room was modern and well maintained. Expect to be woken at dawn by amplified calls to prayer from the mosque next door. The... more

We stayed at this hotel in October, 2007. Its location is spectacular but, the service is horrible. The manager and clerks at the desk are not very nice they misled us. We arrived at the hotel at 5.00pm and was checked in to a room that was poorly maintained. There was meldew on the walls, leaks in the bathroom and... more

Our travel agent had booked us here to give us some down time from the noise of the cities we had been visiting. It is several miles from downtown Alexandria and if you are ok with that it is a nice hotel to stay at. It is located in the Montazah Gardens of the Palace. Pros: The room, restaurant and... more

Whilst advertised as a Palace, it was not like all the other palaces we stayed at, this is on Palace grounds, but its just an unattractive lego block building. The lobby and bar/restaurant/cafe area is very nice, however, the rooms are ordinary, nothing bad, just nothing great. We had a room on the very top floor, the balcony was nice,... more

I had meant to write a review earlier, and didn't think of it til today. When I found myself needing advice again for a little trip, I was reminded of how helpful everyone's recommendations can be. The staff at this hotel were just this side of outstanding! Truly, they could not have done more for us. While we visited in... more

Helnan Palestine belongs to a danish hotel chain. The hotel is located just outside Alexandria. You should know that Alexandria has a 20 kilometres promenade!!Yes 20 kilometres, amazing. The good thing about Helnan Palestine is that the hotel is located inside beautiful gardens in the royal area of the city. Overall impression good. Pool is small but for a short... more

This hotel has by far the best location in Alexandria. Even though it's only a couple of miles from downtown, it seems a planet away from chaotic Alexandria due to its exclusive location inside a beautiful landscaped garden area and private beach. The staff were friendly and accommodating and I'm surprised by the previous poster's comments about them being rude!!... more
