Down Town Cairo Near to the Nile
If you lean towards the center of the city with a wide range of hotel choices and medium Budgets hostels with easy access to all the main transportation lines like the Subway and busses which will help you a lot whether you booked with an agent or even on your own then Down Town Cairo is the best choice for you
Heliopolis
It’s a nice area but extremely far from anything else especially all the attractions as it’s located on the other side of the city. But it’s so close to Cairo International Airport. and if you decided to stay there the accommodation will cost you more than the other districts and in case you would like to do a tour in the morning or hang out at night the transportation will cost you extra.
