keeping the above in mind which property would be better between the le méridien heliopolis & the le méridien pyramids????the sheraton is not available on that date....i was leaning towards heliopolis due to its close proximity to the airport but i'm not sure if staying here will give me enough time to make it to the pyramids & back before my evening meeting....any advice is appreciated....
If I were in your place I would book LM Pyramids and arrange an extra-early car to the airport on the day of travel. You should have much more luck fighting traffic in the early morning than other times of day. OTOH you don't mention where your meeting is going to take place so that might change things.
