Nile Panorama Hotel

"The hotel was rated 9.1 on *********** and marked as a five-star property. At the time, two nights were over 800 on Booking, but just over 700 on Ctrip, so I booked through Ctrip. Now, it's apparently only 170 per night! Ctrip's three-star rating is more accurate; this is essentially a farmhouse in a village. It has a rooftop pool and is surrounded by palm trees, cows, sheep, and donkeys. Getting there is inconvenient. It took me an hour to find it from Luxor's East Bank, and the navigation route was even blocked by an excavator. I left the East Bank at 1:30 PM, found the place at 2:30 PM, and then couldn't find anyone at the front desk. I had to call for someone to come and check me in. The taxi the owner arranged for us cost $30. We got in at 3:30 PM and didn't arrive at Karnak Temple until 4:00 PM, which delayed my plans by over two hours. I only had an hour to visit the temple. I wanted to check out and get a refund that night, as I didn't want to stay there a second night, but the owner absolutely refused. Taxi fares start at 100 EGP. Going to the East Bank starts at 200 EGP, and coming back at night costs 250-350 EGP. It would have been more comfortable to just find a small guesthouse on the East Bank. Both going out and coming back, drivers had a hard time finding the hotel's location. The pros are the generous complimentary breakfast and the hot air balloon views. However, lunch and dinner are not cheap."

St.Joseph Hotel

"I think it's worth the price. The location depends on what you want to do, but since we ended up going to the Luxor Temple area, it was a little inconvenient for us. There were a few cafes and restaurants near the hotel. There's a supermarket about 15 minutes away, and a shop where you can buy drinks about a 5-minute walk away. We also checked about bicycle rentals at the hotel, and they said it was $10 for one bike, so we walked about 20 minutes to a rental shop to rent one. In the end, it cost us 600 Egyptian pounds for two bikes, which was expensive, but the rental bikes are easier to ride because they are rental bikes."

Susanna Hotel Luxor

"Right by Luxor Temple. The accommodation was just okay."

Karnak Hotel Luxor

"It costs 50 Egyptian pounds to take a taxi from the train station. It's not bad. It's opposite the Hilton. The hotel staff is quite friendly. The breakfast is simple. It's cost-effective. However, the hot water needs to be left for ten minutes before it is hot. The floor is still not that clean."

Al Moudira Hotel

"My wife and I have visited Moudira several times over the years, and each stay leaves us newly impressed by the vision, creativity, and refined taste the owners have invested in this extraordinary place. The courtyards and walled gardens blend seamlessly into the surrounding landscape, while each room is individually designed and decorated with great care and character. Our room featured a cushioned alcove where I spent many peaceful afternoons listening to birdsong and the gentle sound of water from a nearby fountain. The five restaurants — especially the recently opened farm restaurant — offer cuisine that is both authentic and inventive, allowing us to enjoy lunch and dinner on-site for an entire week without ever feeling the need to dine elsewhere. The staff provide attentive yet unobtrusive service, often remembering even the smallest details mentioned in passing. We left feeling truly rested and restored in a way we had not experienced in years."

Mara House Luxor

"Researching my trip to southern Egypt, I was lucky to happen upon Mara's website. Mara's posted itineraries and pointers made it really easy to figure out what I basically wanted to see and do. I then emailed Mara, who finalized a program and sent me a very reasonable quote, covering travel, sightseeing, and (Luxor) accommodation. Her communication was responsive and to the point, I could feel that my vacation was in the right hands. When eventually I landed in Luxor, there was literally nothing I needed to take care of anymore for my entire trip - she and her staff had arranged it all, cars, drivers, guides, entrance tickets, lunch stops, in and around Luxor, Aswan, and Abu Simbel. Everything ran safely and on time, and I could just focus on the awe-inspiring temples and tombs, desert and Nile. For the four nights I spent in Luxor, the house itself quickly felt like home. My room was in fact an apartment, including comforts like a mineral water-stocked fridge, and air conditioning of course. Amr and his wife cooked a fine breakfast, and every evening all guests caught up over a delicious dinner, with Mara presiding. Located in a residential area not far from the center, Mara House offers very local sights and sounds, which definitely added to the experience. Thank you Mara and team, I am certain that this vacation will remain in my heart."

Venus Hostel

"私は友人4人と宿泊しました。 とにかく優しいスタッフが多く、たくさんの配慮をしていただきました。 印象的なのは、お土産として現地のコーヒーを買いたいと伝えると、ホテルスタッフのHAGIさんが、バイクに乗せてくれてルクソールの市街地を案内してくれて、コーヒーショップに連れて行ってくれました。 現地では熾烈な値引き交渉もありますが、私たちに観光客価格が提示されることを守ってくれて、楽しく買い物もできました。 あのバイクでのドライブは忘れません！！ ありがとうございました！！ ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー My four friends and I stayed at this hotel. Above all, the staff were incredibly kind and considerate. One particularly memorable experience was when I mentioned wanting to buy some local coffee as a souvenir. HAGI, one of the hotel staff, kindly took me on his motorbike and guided me through the city of Luxor, eventually bringing me to a coffee shop. In the local market, intense price negotiations are common, but he ensured that we were offered fair tourist prices, allowing us to enjoy our shopping experience without worry. I will never forget that motorbike ride! Thank you so much!"
