What we liked:
There was no carpet on the floor, in
a rather large room with a balcony onto the main street.
Unexpectedly, all of the fitted lights in the room were working (the
one above the bathroom mirror was not fitted in the first place, the
cables instead being used to hang the mirror).
The
bathroom was tiled in a way that the water actually drained off. And, there were a
total of 5 electric sockets, albeit in awkward locations (two of them
right opposite the shower, for instance). The manager spoke some
German.
Not so pleasant: There was an acute shortage of hooks and hangers. The breakfast service was rather slow and in a cold and unkempt room, but we got a really good Turkish coffee instead of Nescafe when we asked for it.
Conclusion: Given the lack of hotels in Fayoum, the Palace Hotel is not a bad choice, and very central.
Address: Palace Hotel, Gumhuriya St, Fayoum
