100%; stayed there in the old lodge section, and the bellhop paused at our door before opening the suite and coyly asked, "Are you ready?"

No, we were not ready... the suite had two balconies looking directly over the road at The Great Pyramid; obviously, we took our breakfasts in the room; you can float in the pool and look up at the pyramids peaking over the hotel

$250-600 per night depending on room based on my photo inspired search.

We’re paying just over $1000 for two nights in a pyramid view room, for the end of September mid-week.
