Pros: Lovely Egyptian Decor Hotel. Beautiful Egyptian wall murals and paintings throughout the common areas of the hotel. Several comfortable relaxing area to enjoy with little to no distractions.

Nice stay but beware of the dishonest manager

The hotel was nice and the staff friendly, but when booking our taxi with the manager to leave, he claimed it was 2000 Egyptian pounds ($40). This seemed steep, but with no time to explore other options, we took the taxi to the airport. After only a 25 minute drive, and suspicious of the price, I asked the taxi driver what he had been paid. The hotel had paid him 500 pounds only, charging me four times the actual price! The money loss doesn’t even bother me - it’s being lied to and scammed by the management. Truly too bad because otherwise this was a good value at a budget hotel. I’m sure the

Worst food in Luxor

Nice courtyard but bad food. Beef burger was a fake patty and a slice of tomato in a bread pocket. Set menu doesn’t include soup at lunch but server didn’t say so. Eggplant drowned in oil. Curry chicken was like oil chicken. Mixed grill had rock tough meat. I ordered too much and server never reminded me. Strawberry juice was pink water. Worst experience in Egypt. Would rather eat street food.

Super friendly and quiet place

What a friendly place. Very quiet, superfriendly staff, Nice swimming pool. Good price quality ratio. We Will be back!

Good

The Hotel is really beautiful, it just too bad that the bedrooms are too small and there is a lot of flies… The breakfast is correct and good ! And they have a pool ! So nice !
