How can I get clean towels replaced at a hotel in Egypt?

TL;DR

Egyptian hotels may not replace towels daily, even when they are marked for change. Leave used towels on the floor and contact reception if fresh ones are not provided.

What the community said

Leave towels on the floor when you need replacements; this is the clearest signal for housekeeping to send them to laundry and provide fresh ones.

Towels left on the floor

Towels are generally available, but their cleanliness may be inconsistent; some dry towels can appear to have been refolded as fresh. Check the set after housekeeping.

If towels are not changed after a request or marker, contact the reception desk. A replacement was provided after raising the issue with reception.

Reception desk

Do not assume daily towel changes: reports suggest an every-other-day schedule or replacement only on request. For a two-week stay, requesting fresh towels every 3–5 days is a practical approach.
