Are cockroaches a common problem in Egypt hotels?
Based on 1 discussion with 3 participants · Last activity: 15 days ago
TL;DR
Yes, cockroaches are common in Egypt due to the climate, including in hotels, but they're not dangerous and don't usually infest rooms. Hotels regularly do pest control.
What the community said
Egypt's climate is nearly ideal for cockroaches — they're found almost everywhere, but it's not dangerous, just a feature of the country.

Flying cockroaches exist in Egypt — it's a normal feature of the climate, not a sign of a specific hotel being unsanitary.

No cockroaches were found inside the room itself — the only visitor was a gecko that came in once.
