It’s a stunningly beautiful hotel that brings you back in time when an actual king used as his winter palace. Breakfast was excellent, bar atmosphere was elegant, and both restaurant options excellent. Highly, highly recommend.

This is a phenomenal property with the elegance of an Italian villa. It was five star stay for sure. It was more of an experience to eat out and use local taxis rather than stay in.

Wonderful old hotel

First we had a small room without balcony although I had booked a Nile view room. But we got a huge room with a balcony overlooking the amazing garden. The hotel is a bit rundown but lovely. Breakfast was excellent. All in all wonderful three days

Stould frozen 100 years

Place appears like its stould frozen intime for a hundred years, regal bldg with very old yet very comfy furniture. I had not been aware that the restaurants and bar required long pants so the hotel lost a lot of our business.

Sumptuous elegance and calm against the back drop of a chaotic city My mum and I spent a week here for her 80th b’day present. This is an oasis of calm compared to the chaos and hassle of Luxor. From the fact our room was upgraded by the lovely reception staff to have more space for the week we were there, to the soft and unbelievably comfy bed linen to the absolutely amazing staff who helped us, this is a wonderful Hotel. I can’t name them all as I’d be here all day, but stand outs were Ashraf, Khaled and Rashidy. And then the lovely receptionist, the brilliant door man who helped change my dollars on last day, to the lovely female cleaner. Mum had the best time and we ended up eating there every day as we liked the service so much.

A historic hotel in a prime location with wonderful staff and lots of charm. The staff takes great pride in their jobs and work really hard to accommodate your every need and request. Rooms are nice and offer very comfortable beds. The bar/lounge by the lobby was excellent. Great staff, service and live piano during happy hour. The grounds are spacious and beautiful. The pool is large, but requires significantly more chlorine as it has algae throughout the grout, walls and filters. The food was ok. Absolutly nothing to reflect or rival a 5 star hotel. The breakfast was ok. The food at the pool was subpar. Dinner was ok. The stores connected to the hotel are a circus. Nobels Art Gallery and Nobels Jewelers are all owned by the same family and are a complete rip off. I purchased an 18k cartouche from Shady. I picked up my cartouche and went back to the hotel and realized the letters on my name were FAKE GOLD. I took it back to the store and informed him I knew it wasn’t real gold. He admitted it and refunded me. So disturbing. I made the hotel aware given the stores products are displayed throughout the hotel endorsing the stores. Overall, the hotel was ok. It is a historic hotel but absolutly not a five star hotel.

Fantastisches Hotel - eine Oase mitten in Luxor Waren bereits zum zweiten Mal hier und werden such das nächste Mal wieder hier übernachten. Sehr freundliches und zuvorkommendes Personal - super Restaurants im Hotel aber auch in direkter Umgebung an der Corniche. Die Bar im Hotel und die Bar draußen oberhalb der Corniche sind traumhaft schön. Unsere Zimmer gingen nach hinten zum Garten raus und waren schön ruhig und riesig.
