Maadi used books: what do users think?
Shaimaa Mohamed
Shaimaa Mohamed: The place is full of books and the prices are very good.... I bought a lot of children's books and found the books of the Green Library, the original edition ❤️
Ahmad Abd Elnasser
Ahmad Abd Elnasser: The best place in Egypt…
alaa azzam
alaa azzam: I visited this place twice and it's really one of my favourites! You can't expect what kind of great books you'll find. I usually go there to exchange my books and I always come out with great finds. They even have so many books in so many languages not just Arabic and English. You can find books in Spanish, French, German, Japanese and so many more. I bought books in Korean, Urdu and Turkish.My only complaint is that the place is too tight and narrow and it can be suffocating in summer. A lot of the books are stacked on top of one another that it can be difficult to pull out a book. And most importantly, my favourite section which has an impressive collection of foreign languages is the narrowest spot in the place. Just by looking at the spines I can see that there are a lot of amazing books but I can't reach them or take a proper look with all the dust. It's too narrow and confined. I genuinely hope you give this place more space and attention because it has great potential.
Hana Tarek
Hana Tarek: Love the idea .. i find some nice books sometimes .. but they need to make better stuctured bookcases for their books and find a solution for all the dust.
Dietrich M
Dietrich M: Very humble hidden gem in Maadi for bibliophiles and anyone really looking for a book on almost any subject.The organization and variety is great for such a small space, but a lot of books are out of reach and even more are shelved behind entire shelves of books; I wished I didn't have to kneel down to find some books because their collections are so varied and all-encompassing, especially in the English literature section.For horror aficionados, there are books by authors like James Herbert which I honestly haven't found elsewhere.It's definitely worth multiple visits; if you're really into books, expect to linger around for three hours or more. I was shocked honestly that there weren't many visitors.
Hend A.
Hend A.: A place hidden like this in a building's garage, selling used books, very good for all reading lovers, because it contains a wide variety of books on arts, history, children, education, architecture... almost everything.The owner of the place is helpful and helps you with what you are looking for.
Noha Hamed
Noha Hamed: The bookshop is goodBut some books are behind other books making it hard to see what's behindThe children corner and teens corner are good and easy to reachThe only thing missing is young adults books

Farah Ahmed
Farah Ahmed: Incredible place
Frank L
Frank L: Fairly expensive for locally produced Egyptian products, but it remains fantastic value by western standards.You can expect journals hand-bound in soft leather and gilded edges for $10-$12. The shop is quite nice in offering juice boxes to its guests. The shopping process is also very unhurried and the staff is very friendly.The shop offers free embossing, which is offers a glimpse of the craftsmanship that goes into these books.
Nicolas Baquié

Noha Ezz
Noha Ezz: Absolutely wonderful and a must-go-to for everyone, Egyptians and non-Egyptians alike. My friend got me a notebook for my birthday a few years back and I spent months trying to know where she made it at and discovered Abdelzahers stamp on the back of the notebook just a while ago. I customize hard cover notebooks for my friends and family there and they always make the best and most unforgettable gifts of all time.

Alex D
Alex D: Avoid at all cost!!!!If you want to be received by a staff who complains you take too much time to chose more than 10 items, barely acknowledges your presence and answers your polite questions with exasperation while ending up asking you to chose other items because the ones you picked are defective without offering to help....if you want all that then I recommend you set foot in this overrated shop, a counter-product of the extreme mediocrity of the offer available in Cairo.Positive reviews from tourists who wander around the souk without needing to order or buy anything.Sad for a place with such a location and potential.
KARIM saeed
KARIM saeed: Very good
Andrew Blum
Andrew Blum: We loved our experience here. The gentleman who customized our beautiful books was an artist and a perfectionist. He made many unique books for us, each with different inscriptions, layouts and designs. He was generous, and included us in the entire process. This is a phenomenal place for anybody looking for high-quality, sophisticated, custom gifts.

Christian Schubert
Christian Schubert: I live in Cairo, and since 2018 this store had always stood out as one of the very (!) few interesting bookstores in Cairo. Not anymore. It has become quite boring, the staff seems unprofessional. Asking for the catalogue, for instance, is asking too much! Cannot recommend this place anymore, and I say this as a fan of AUC Press itself!

Muhammad Magdi
Muhammad Magdi: شركة «الشروق للمكتبات» هى إحدى شركات مجموعة الشروق، وهى تمثل الامتداد الطبيعي لدار الشروق التي تأسست عام 1968 وتحولت على مر السنين من كونها ناشرًا مستقلًّا لتصبح دار نشر رائدة فى منطقة الشرق الأوسط رسَّخت مكانتها بما لديها من قناعات قوية بقِيَم نشر الثقافة والعلم وأثر ذلك على تقدم ورُقي المجتمع، وباحتفاظها بحقوق نشر أكبر الكُتاب والمؤلفين في المنطقة العربية، والذي حاز العديد منهم أهم الجوائز العربية والعالمية.وتُعد «الشروق للمكتبات» من أكبر السلاسل الرائدة لبيع الكتب في مصر، وهي تضم تشكيلة استثنائية من أبرز وأهم العناوين العربية والأجنبية وبأسعار في متناول القارئ، مما أدى للمساهمة في تزايد قاعدة القُرَّاء في مصر واكتساب احترامهم من خلال فروعها المنتشرة والتي يشتمل كل فرع منها على ما يزيد على 20 ألف عنوان، وعبر تقديم أفضل تجربة للبيع بالتجزئة للمستهلك النهائي.وقد بدأت فكرة إنشاء منافذ لتوزيع وبيع الكتب عندما افتتحت دار الشروق «مكتبات الشروق» بلندن عام 1983، لتكون منارةً للثقافة العربية في أوروبا، ثم افتتحت بعد ذلك في عام 1988 مكتبتها الشهيرة في قلب القاهرة بميدان طلعت حرب على بُعد خطوات من ميدان التحرير.وفي عام 2008، واقتناعًا من مجموعة الشروق بأن الحلقة التي سوف تكتمل بها منظومتها في النشر هي تواجد سلسلة متخصصة من مكتبات ومنافذ للبيع المباشر، تعرض إنتاجها وإنتاج جميع دور النشر العربية والعالمية على حد السواء، فقد قامت بتأسيس شركة «الشروق للمكتبات»، لتكون شبكة واسعة من المكتبات والتي لا توفر للقُراء مكانًا لبيع الكتب فحسب، بل هي أيضًا تُعد مراكز مجتمعية تتواصل مع سكان محيطها من خلال عقد ندوات وجلسات قراءة مع كبار المؤلفين، وكذلك الاستفادة من علاقاتها العميقة والوطيدة في دعوة كبار الكُتاب والمؤلفين العرب والأجانب، وتنظيم الحفلات والندوات والمناسبات الثقافية والمجتمعية والتي يتم تغطيتها بمختلف وسائل الإعلام، فضلًا عن توفير أنشطة تثقيفية وترفيهية وفنية وورش عمل للأطفال.

L'orientaliste: what do users think?
Andrey Gusev
Andrey Gusev: I was lucky enough to visit this place before honorable owner of the shop, Mr. Hassan Kami, passed away in 2018, and to shake hands with him. Unfortunately, that spirit that was at the place then is also leaving. Rest in peace, Great Egyptian!
Jeff Narver
Jeff Narver: I just went to the Orientalist book shop in Cairo after a trip to the Egyptian Museum. I finally found it and had to push hard to get the door open. I was looking for antiquarian books in English on ancient Egypt and found nothing but a few common hardcovers. The woman didn’t speak English well and was not inclined to help. The book stock was falling apart and I think that they focus on pictures. A true waste of time, avoid avoid avoid.
Georgios Oikonomou
Georgios Oikonomou: Probably it used to be a nice and interesting place in the 60s. Unfortunately, I have never experienced it during the old days. There is only one employee left, his English is limited, he has no clue what he sells or in which language the books are written. If you are a foreigner expect at least to pay 5 times more than an Egyptian (tried this since I live in Cairo). Sad... Be careful!
ALKADI Aj
ALKADI Aj: magnificence
Panagiotis Cafatsakis
Panagiotis Cafatsakis: Very exciting place.
Carlos Sarasola Orio
Carlos Sarasola Orio: Great bookshop with lots of old and curious books, maps, postcards and memorabilia from Egypt and more.
J B
J B: Small space but very full with a wonderful collection of old books and prints. Going to have to make multiple trips to take it all in!
Ramez Boshra
Ramez Boshra: Very old and unique library
13 Outdoor
13 Outdoor: هو أفضل مكان زورت في القاهرةو المكتبة بها روح من صاحب المكتبة - فنان حسن كاميو لو عندي وقت لمدة شهر في القاهرة سأبقى هنا ل٣٠ يومThis is the best book store in Cairo or maybe in Egypt.The reason is because the store of Mr. Hassan kamy is very impressed.I will be come back !Highly recommend you to visit here
Mickael aziz
Mickael aziz: A tresor of old and rare books, a beautiful lithograhs and old postcards
Mohammed Abdel Aziz
Mohammed Abdel Aziz: كنز من الكتب التراثية والرسومات والمخطوطات النادرة، في موقع ساحر في قلب القاهرة الخديوية
Kenzy Fahmy
Kenzy Fahmy: Does not seem to be able to differentiate between fakes and originals so one should be wary of buying overpriced reproductions. Will pull prices out of a hat and change them on a whim. Insanely overpriced and untrustworthy. A real shame as he has some great stuff.
Jacob Bower-Bir
Jacob Bower-Bir: You will spend more time in here than you intend to. The staff are welcoming and speak many languages.
