TL;DR
Refrigerators are common in Egyptian accommodation, but their size and condition vary from a minibar to a full fridge with a freezer. Self-catering apartments are more likely to have a complete kitchen and a proper freezer.
In one standard room for two guests, the refrigerator was clean and working, as were the hairdryer and air conditioning. Check the fridge and AC as soon as you receive the room keys.
A proper freezer is uncommon in a hotel room. At some properties in May, there were no in-room refrigerators at all, so chilled items could only be left with the bar staff.
Self-catering apartments can offer a much better-equipped kitchen: reported amenities included a washing machine, stove, microwave, and built-in refrigerator with a full freezer. This is the more practical option for storing food and cooking independently.
In regular rooms, the fridge is more often minibar-sized, although some have a small freezer compartment. Other commonly mentioned amenities included a kettle, water, and basic toiletries.
