About Our Hostel
Born out of a dream, we created Holy Sheet Hostel as a a way to welcome guests from all over the world. It’s our passion for sharing our story and our heritage with the world that inspires us to open our doors as your home away from home. With a lot of long hours, hard work, and heartfelt dedication, we made our dream a reality when we renovated part of a historic building in the heart of Cairo’s downtown.
Today, our mission at Holy Sheet Hostel is to provide a place of reliability and comfort while travelers explore our home country. As a highly trusted family-owned business, and with a thriving track-record of thousands of 5-star reviews from past guests, we invite you to join our Holy Sheet Hostel family on your next visit to Egypt.
We have prepared this cozy place, offering you variety of rooms: private (private and shared bathroom rooms), shared dormitory (mixed and female only rooms), with a capacity for 51 guests (36 in dorm rooms & 15 in private rooms).And we provided you with two lounge areas to meet and share experience with other travelers.
