The first room offered to us was not up to standard and as the hotel was far from good booked, we received immediately a very nice room. The service of the staff in the hotel is very friendly and good. The normally generous breakfast and dinner buffet was not up to standard and a disappointment. The evening buffet was meager... More

Stayed here for two weeks on an all inclusive basis - while everything was clean and tidy and the setting on the banks of the Nile was nice with lovely gardens. The pool area was well patrolled by lifeguards and the sun loungers were plentiful but if the hotel was at full capacity this may well have been different. Water... More

This was our 5th time in Luxor and our second time at the Sofitel. We flew with Easy Jet and wouldn't do so again. The flight was less than six hours, but felt like longhaul. Cabin crew were fine, but it really is just a bus with wings, not at all comfortable. We'd stayed in the new Premier Inn the... More

A really gorgeous resort. We visited during the summer so evenings were very pleasantly spent outside. The outer edge of the hotel sits right at the edge of the Nile -- beautiful. I was surprised to find that WiFi in the rooms was very expensive: 40LE for half an hour or something around there. Luckily, there's free one-hour session WiFi... More

My third stay at the Sofitel Karnak confirmed my opinion that it is the perfect choice for Luxor. The location is superb as it is just outside the town centre. Relaxing on the banks of the Nile watching the kingfishers dive for fish is a delightful way to spend an afternoon after visiting the sites. I cannot praise the staff... More
