We arrived late afternoon to our ‘Second Home’. Though it was several years since we had stayed it was like we had never been away. The welcome was fabulous and greeting all our old friends was great. Our room overlooked the Nile and in the distance we could clearly see the Temple of Hatshepsut. We enjoyed watching the hot-air balloons rising above the Nile each morning. So peaceful yet exhilarating. We were only staying a week this time but a day a week or a month lends itself to great relaxing holiday. All the staff are all fantastic and though everyone deserves a mention we must say thanks to Ali Mohamed who is and always has been an asset to the hotel. He has the command of superb English and a vast knowledge of all things ‘Luxor‘. Gigi a newer addition to the team was excellent and always went the extra mile to help all the guests. Reception, housekeeping, dining room staff, security and of course the hidden staff running this vast hotel in the background, including Mr Nagi and Mr Mokhlis, should all be highly commended for making our stay unforgettable. We can’t wait to return.

“Superior Nile view room”

Good view of the Nile from our superior Nile view room although obviously noisy with all the hustle and bustle, but a great place to soak in the atmosphere. Other room views available.

Good view of the Nile from our superior Nile view room although obviously noisy with all the hustle and bustle, but a great place to soak in the atmosphere. Other room views available. Tea and coffee provided along with a mini fridge , good to keep drinks chilled. We stayed on half board , buffet breakfast with fresh omelette station was a great start to the day , they will do fried eggs, lots of other hot or cold options. Found the opening times useful when we had an early tour or went out to the walkable sites ie Karnak and Luxor temple to avoid the heat, then could take breakfast upon our return. The waiting staff were always welcoming ans helpful.Evening meal often buffet or smaller restaurant..Staff friendly especially Ahmed and Shazba ( sorry if incorrect) Pool area a good place to relax and cool off after taking in the numerous wonders of Luxor. Would recommend to friends and thank you for our weeks stay

“Hotel no merece el 4*- Es solo un hotel estándar”

Este es un hotel muy antiguo, reformado y no ir por las críticas de 5 * como no lo es. Hay 2 edificios, 1 frente al Nilo con hermosas vistas y otro detrás del edificio que es como una casa de huéspedes y 2 plantas sin ascensor. Las habitaciones no están bien mantenidas, y los muebles y accesorios … Más

Este es un hotel muy antiguo, reformado y no ir por las críticas de 5 * como no lo es. Hay 2 edificios, 1 frente al Nilo con hermosas vistas y otro detrás del edificio que es como una casa de huéspedes y 2 plantas sin ascensor. Las habitaciones no están bien mantenidas, y los muebles y accesorios son de antaño y la limpieza es cuestionable. Nos dieron esa habitación, pero al plantear la cuestión con la recepción no se hizo nada y la mayoría del personal fue grosero. Finalmente, cuando bajé el pie por el GM - el Sr. Aala, que era la persona más gentil, nos ayudó y nos trasladó a la habitación Deluxe que era mejor y cómodo.
