GOLDEN HOTEL CAIRO, EGYPT -- 24

3-Star Hotel that Offers 10-Star Service at Backpacker Prices


My bucket of chicken arrived quite a long time after the order was placed.

But I was thrilled to see dinner rolls, fries, chicken rice and those four pieces of bird -- when it did arrive.

Ahmad, in his Arabic-influenced English, knocked on my door to say “gzhentleman, your chicken has arrived.”

I would have gone a day and half without eating real food if not for Ahmad’s courtly service and phone perseverance.

Huddled in the little kitchen, re-warming KFC of all things, with Ahmad's help.

Well, it was the perfect cap on becoming part of the family at Downtown Cairo’s homey and lovely Golden Hotel.
