TL;DR
Many hotels in Egypt don’t have a proper drying rack in the room; often there’s only a line in the shower or nothing useful at all. It’s best to bring your own travel clothesline and clothespins, ask guest relations for a drying rack or iron, or use the hotel laundry service if needed.
According to the newest report, bathrobes and slippers can be requested from guest relations if they are not already in the room. You can also ask for an iron and a drying rack, but drying racks may be unavailable, so don’t rely on getting one.
One traveler noted that there was no proper drying rack in the room, only a single short line in the shower. A suitcase stand from the closet can help in a pinch, but bringing your own clothesline and clothespins is the more reliable solution.
Another tip is not to treat the luggage stand as a real drying rack because it is too small for much clothing. Travelers suggest stringing a personal clothesline between the railing and a heavy metal table, hanging longer items on hangers, or using the hotel laundry service, which usually has a bag and price list in the wardrobe.
