    excellent location
    comfortable room

    the junction had a fantastic location, making it easy to explore all the nearby museums, including king tut's. the area was well signposted, and we truly appreciated the good local knowledge from the staff. staying for one night in the standard double room was comfortable. everything was conveniently nearby, which added to our experience!

    Can't recommend highly enough for a brief visit

    Friendly staff, clean room, the breakfast was excellent with all the traditional options prepared beautifully, as well as the convenience of having free parking available on-site.

    friendly staff
    comfortable atmosphere
    dated accommodation
    noise disturbances
    rainwater issues

    The atmosphere offers a comfortable and cozy vibe, perfect after exploring the nearby town center. The staff were exceptionally friendly and provided great service, particularly the barman and breakfast staff who made our stay memorable. the accommodation had some dated features. water from rain runoff was an issue, and the early morning noise from deliveries was quite disruptive. Still, the good quality, local-sourced food overshadowed these inconveniences.

    big room
    tasty breakfast
    dated furniture

    I had a comfy stay where I really enjoyed the big room with two single beds and the tasty breakfast every morning. The hotel also had a nice lounge area to unwind and a lovely pool for relaxing. My only gripe was that the furniture felt a bit dated, but it didn't take away from my overall good experience 😊.

    cozy room
    helpful staff
    great breakfast
    dated decor
    noise issues
    mold presence

    I had a lovely stay at The Junction. The room felt spacious, warm, and cozy. The shower was hot and powerful, just what I needed after a long day. Breakfast each morning exceeded my expectations—it was cooked to order with plenty of options. I particularly appreciated the help from the staff. they were friendly and accommodating. One morning, we showed up late for breakfast, but Albert made it for us within minutes, which was impressive. the room had some issues. I noticed a small patch of black mold on the wall and some dampness, which definitely needs attention. The decor also felt quite dated, which could use a fresh touch. Noise was an issue too. I was woken up by delivery trucks early in the morning. I suggest looking into better soundproofing.

    tricky parking
    busy environment

    The room had a cozy armchair and a comfortable bed that made for a restful night's sleep. I also appreciated the high-speed Wi-Fi and the en-suite bathroom that added convenience to my stay.

    The parking could be a bit tricky during peak hours.
