Best Studios for Rent in Maadi 2026: 5 Top Picks from House Solution Egypt
By Hossam Younis, Senior Real Estate Consultant · House Solution Egypt · Last updated: July 24, 2026
Studios are the hardest brief we get in Maadi. The demand side is predictable enough: single professionals, teachers on a first Cairo posting, consultants signed to six or twelve months. Supply is not. Good units go inside a fortnight, and two studios asking the same rent can be entirely different propositions once you are standing in them.
So this is not a list of the five prettiest listings. It is the five we would put in front of someone who called this morning, pulled from the 43 studios currently live across Maadi and checked against the listings this week.
How We Selected These 5 Studios
House Solution Egypt has been letting in Maadi since 2001. Our agents walk these buildings, which is why the shortlist starts from what is genuinely lettable rather than from what photographs well.
- Drawn from a pool of 43. Every studio on our live Maadi inventory was reviewed. Each unit here carries a current reference number, photographs, and confirmed availability.
- Furnished and ready. All five come furnished with equipped kitchens, which is what someone landing on a work contract with two suitcases actually needs.
- Across sub-areas and rents. Sarayat and Degla, from 40,320 to 70,560 EGP, rather than five variations on one price point.
- One clear reason each. No two picks solve the same problem: most space per pound, most serviced, a study room, full building facilities, a Degla base.
Rents are the live EGP figures from each listing. USD equivalents are approximate at roughly 50.4 EGP per dollar, the rate the listing pages reflect in July 2026. Egyptian rents are set against the dollar, so confirm the number at signing.
1. Rooftop Studio in Sarayat: Most Space for the Money
Ultra Modern Rooftop Studio for Rent in Sarayat El Maadi
The case for it
Eighty square metres, and the lowest rent on this list. Those two facts do not usually sit together, and a unit carrying both tends not to last the month.
The trade is in the finish. This one is recorded as furnished rather than modern furnished, which in practice means an older fit-out, and the amenity sheet is short: a balcony, built-in wardrobes, kitchen appliances, internet, and round-the-clock security with surveillance. No pool, no gym, no maid service. If you want floor space and do not care about a clubhouse, this is the one.
One point to raise at the viewing. The unit is listed as a rooftop studio, and the recorded amenities include a balcony rather than a separate roof terrace, so ask to see exactly what outdoor space comes with the lease before you commit to it.
View Listing2. Serviced Studio in Sarayat: Built for a Three-Month Posting
Furnished Modern Studio Apartment for Rent in Sarayat Al Maadi
Start with the number that looks wrong
This is 27 square metres, the smallest unit we hold in Maadi, and it costs 12,600 EGP a month more than the 80 m² rooftop studio at Ref #4905, in the same sub-area. That is worth stating plainly rather than ordering the list around it.
What it has that the rooftop does not is service. Central air conditioning and maid service, the two lines a company looks for when it is placing someone for a quarter and does not want them sourcing a cleaner or arguing about a split unit. For that tenant the floor area is close to irrelevant.
What you are paying for
- Central A/C
- Maid service
- Kitchen appliances
- Internet access
- 24-hour security and surveillance
The listing places the unit on a quiet tree-lined street within walking distance of Maadi Metro Station.
View Listing3. Studio with a Study Room: The One for Remote Workers
Stunning Studio with Shared Facilities for Rent in Sarayat El Maadi
Why it earns its place
Barely any studio in our Maadi book records a separate study room. This one does.
For anyone who takes calls for a living, that single line beats another ten square metres of open plan, because it is the difference between shutting a door and apologising for the background. The rest is the shared-facilities model Sarayat does well: pool, gym, landscaped garden across the building, security and surveillance on site, and an interior the listing describes as taking a lot of natural light.
On the amenity sheet
- Study room
- Shared swimming pool
- Gym
- Built-in wardrobes
- Kitchen appliances
- Internet access
- 24-hour security and surveillance
4. Studio with Pool, Gym and Elevator: The Fullest Facilities on the List
Exquisite Studio with Shared Facilities for Rent in Sarayat El Maadi
Space and services together
Seventy square metres is generous for a studio, and this one pairs the floor area with the longest amenity list of the five. Shared pool, gym, elevator, and maid service, in a Sarayat building with security and surveillance on site.
The elevator earns a mention of its own. A good number of Sarayat buildings do not have one, and it tends to be the detail tenants forget to ask about until they are carrying luggage to a fourth floor in July.
At 60,480 EGP a month it sits in the middle of this list. What the rent buys is the building rather than the finish: the fit-out is modern furnished with built-in wardrobes and kitchen appliances, solid rather than showy, with the shared facilities doing the heavier work.
The full amenity list
- Shared swimming pool
- Gym
- Elevator
- Maid service
- Built-in wardrobes
- Kitchen appliances
- Internet access
- 24-hour security and surveillance
5. Modern Furnished Studio in Degla: The Alternative to Sarayat
Studio for Rent in Degla Al Maadi
Where it fits
Every studio search in Maadi eventually turns into a Sarayat-or-Degla conversation, and this is the unit we open it with. Sixty-five square metres, open-plan living area, fully equipped kitchen, maid service, elevator, and a listing that was refreshed recently, which for a category turning over as fast as studios is a real signal rather than a line of copy.
It is also the most expensive thing here. The case for the premium is the errand radius: our listing points to easy access to commercial facilities and banks, which is the practical argument for Degla over Sarayat.

Frequently Asked Questions
The five studios shortlisted here run from 40,320 EGP to 70,560 EGP per month, roughly 800 to 1,400 US dollars. Across House Solution Egypt's full set of 43 live Maadi studios in July 2026, furnished units start below that range. Rents are set against the dollar, so the EGP figure moves with the exchange rate.
Because rent in Maadi tracks the building and its services more closely than it tracks floor area. The 27 m² unit (Ref #6206) includes central air conditioning and maid service, while the 80 m² unit (Ref #4905) is a plainer furnished fit-out with a shorter amenity list. Compare the service package, not the square metres.
Almost always. All five studios on this list are let furnished with equipped kitchens, four of them recorded as modern furnished. Unfurnished studios do appear in Maadi occasionally, but they are a small minority of what is available at any given time.
Two on this list. Ref #5803 (45 m²) and Ref #5778 (70 m²) are both in shared-facilities buildings in Sarayat with a swimming pool and gym, and both are listed at 60,480 EGP per month. Ref #5778 also includes an elevator and maid service.
Sarayat carries the larger share of House Solution Egypt's studio inventory, so it offers more choice and a wider price range. Degla is the usual alternative for tenants who want to be nearer everyday shops, banks, and services. Compare both directly on our Maadi Sarayat and Maadi Degla studio pages.
