As he promised

Thing is that in peak season this second room (now furnished as a living room) can be easily converted into a totally seperate room. They simply close the interconnecting door, throw out the dining room set, move the couch over there, and get a bed in this space. That is also why that "suite" came with two identical bathrooms (and two minibars!).

I lived in Cairo for a while. My sister went there and never came back for fifteen years and married an Egyptian who became very rich. I was lucky to stay in most posh hotels and houses. At one point he had the whole of the pyramid site cleared and closed so me and my sister could have a "private viewing". He did this Cairo Museum as well! I was lucky enough to see many things that no one ever saw including artifacts from King Tut and a visit to the presidential palace where we met Anwar El Sadat! One funny story was that in those days you could just clamber up a pyramid to which my sister did and promptly got stuck right at the top of one. In the end the Egyptian Army had to be called out with helicopter to rescue her. It cost my brother-in-Law a small fortune and a fine. Cairo is a fantastic city, even more so if you get off the touristy bits. Also Egyptians are all friendly and welcoming.

I visited the pyramids over a decade ago, but it was summertime. My god, the heat was unreal. I took a couple of steps inside the pyramid, felt like I was being cremated, and I turned around and walked right back out. The sweat was appearing through the outside of my baseball cap. Pyramids size was amazing, though, and to think they're nearly 5000 years old.

I spent two weeks in Egypt last April. I deliberately didn’t stay at the Marriott as all I heard is they have non stop huge weddings there due to the pyramid photo opps. So most guests can’t sleep as the music doesn’t stop. We stayed at the 4 seasons and the ritz. Tow bathrooms are essential as you can both get ready at the same time and be off early for the tour. The black back pack should be banned worldwide wide!

Awesome video! I'm an Egyptology student so it's great seeing these things! Also, the blocks for the pyramids didn't come from Luxor - the core limestone blocks came from Giza - basically where you're standing at 28:32 The white outer limestone that made the smooth angle was quarried and shipped from Tura

I know some are saying it's overpriced, but I think it is worth the money. If you consider the size of your 2 rooms, the free food and drinks if you want it (you could as you said not have to pay for food and drink at all with access to that lounge) that alone would save you money. Also, the service is good, that was kind of the waiter in the lounge to bring you that big fruit platter. It's a once in a lifetime experience to stay somewhere where you can see the pyramids and also walk to it, thus saving on transport there, all in all, good value for money in my opinion.

The show is available in 10 languages, including English, Arabic, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Japanese, and Polish.

I went inside the great pyramid as an 18yo teen. I'm 36 now and I don't think I could do it again, it was incredibly hot and very cramped. Like a sauna is not an understatement. It was 45c outside, maybe 70c+ inside.

Hi Tim. The reason the bed and living room are identical because they originally were 2 connecting rooms, where they simply changed the furniture in one room, to make it a living room. Hence the 2 separate balconies, 2 safes and near identical bathrooms. Superior rooms and suites, always have access to the executive lounge. Memberships is normally a point earning system, giving u options for free nights and a membership once “high” enough can mean free upgrades depending on availability. Suites made to be a suite has normally a powder room, one entrance, one safe and one big balcony, but either way, the extra space is always nice to have and you deserve it! Thanks for yet another great video!

What an absolutely stunning hotel , that view is just incredible, looking at one of the 7 wonders of the world . I think the price for the room and that view is pretty darn great . Another very interesting episode Tim , thanks so much , just watching more and more of your videos . Xx

It's hazy because of the sand particles whipped-up in the wind. It's always like that there. 75.25 EGP is the average salary which is £1.25 so you gave him a nice bonus. Always look after the local security. Especially in places where there are uprisings. They look after you back. Top man.
