We stumbled into good fortune when we discovered the Sheherezade on a March 2012 trip to Luxor. That visit went so happily that we're glad to have come back again with visiting family members just six weeks later. Mohamed and his staff are so helpful; anything you want is apparently easy for them. We really enjoy the simple breakfast in... More

We thought we had found a little bit of paradise when we arrived at this hotel for our week's stay, lovely and peaceful, great views, wonderful and attentive staff and genuinely good food. The rooms were large, airy and clean, there was no hassle and staff couldn't have been more willing to help. The location is great, a few minutes'... More

This hotel is located on the West Bank with easy access to the ferry and a large choice of boats to cross over to the East Bank in a matter of minutes. The Nile crossing by itself was a very pleasant experience allowing closer contact with the Egyptian polulation. On this side of the river the locals were very welcoming... More

we spent an absolutely amazing time in the Sheherezade! Frendly staff, clean rooms, good enviroment, delicious food and an increadible roof terrace. We had feeling of an authentic egyptian life in the nice round shaped garden terrace with a cup of fresh mint tea in the afternoon. Thank you very much for the great experience! More

I chose the West bank as a conference centre and base away from the dull five star hotels that you can access anywhere in the world. This hotel and wonderful centre with roof top sings of Egyptian life and culture. The West Bank is the best for true Egypt and the Sheherazade delivers on all levels- design, service, staff- in...

This wonderful hotel gave us the best of both worlds - situated on the west bank, it is a peaceful sanctuary, and yet a stones throw from the ferry and the east bank of Luxor town. The hotel is built in traditional style and has an easy spacious feel which extends to the interiors of rooms which are domed. The... More

The Sheherazade Hotel is the ideal place to enjoy the genuine and authentic atmosphere of the West Bank and to visit the Valley of the Kings and many temples. In the Hotel, the food is fresh and tasty (and there is the best falafel ever), the staff friendly, the rooms clean. From the roof terrace the view is stunning and... More

The doubts I had about staying on the West bank disappeared and were replaced by delight: the minutes crossing the Nile each morning and evening in the river taxi's were a joy. I stayed in an East bank hotel last Spring and Hotel Sheherazade was an oasis of calm and a sample of real Egyptian life by comparison. Throughout my... More

This is a beautiful, peaceful hotel on the West Bank - the perfect place to relax after the hustle of the East bank. It has a large roof terrace from which you can see the desert mountains in one direction and the Nile in the other and there are beautiful gardens, with sun loungers, chairs and tables and a domed...

I'm the kind which normally researches into the smallest of detailes, and therefore I have a good sense of what I'm in for. This time I had nothing to do with booking or reviewing, and did no research beforehand. That's why the best singleworded description for Hotel Sheherazade, on my part, is; serendipity. Driving through the narrow alleys leading up... More
