I stayed at this hotel with my partner last week and we both had a fantastic time. The setting, (on the bank of the Nile) was tremendous and watching the sun set over the Nile from the 'sundowner' bar was an experience not to be missed. The facilities were many and excellent and the staff were more than helpful, all... More

In our experience, the Sofitel Karnak Hotel holds a 5-star ranking solely on the basis of its amenities, not on its rooms, which we would rate 3-stars, European style. The hotel has a large swimming pool, a separate “kids pool,” several shops, bar, large dining room, a bar and restaurant near the Nile, and (apparently) tennis courts and spa. However,... More

I stayed with my mother in the Sofitel Karnak hotel during my our trip to Egypt in 2008. During this trip we already thought that the hotel is really fantastic - the pool area is large and beautiful, there are several restaurants, the rooms are clean and comfortable, the staff is friendly... The following years we tried several other hotels... More

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Sofitel Karnak. The location is wonderful, with lovely gardens overlooking the Nile. The accommodation was very good, and the standard of housekeeping excellent. The bar service was ok, perhaps a little pricey, and I found the reception staff to be very helpful, especially helping me to get set up on the... More

Having stayed at the Sofitel Karnak, Luxor, ever since it opened...both as a couple and also as a family at least once (sometimes twice a year) we still keep returning because it's always a peacefully relaxing and throughly enjoyable place for a holiday. The warm and friendly welcome each time we return, the clean and well maintained rooms, the beautiful... More

I stayed at Sofitel Karnak Luxor with my brother and sister for seven days. I am saddened to see the negative reviews on this hotel and staff. I personally found it to be one of the best holidays I have experienced. The staff were professional and went out of their way to be helpful and nothing was too much for... More

I have just returned to England from my 7th visit to the Sofitel Karnak. Once again I was met with a fantastic welcome from all the staff. Everyone from the cleaners, the gardeners, receptionists, waiters, lifeguards have treated me with kindness and respect. It is not in my remit to name names, however, special mention is made with regard to... More

Just back and we had great time. Pool huge and heated. Liked it was out of town as away from noise and hassle. Got free bus and/ or boat into town and taxi back under £3 with the near famous helpful taxi driver Mr Adam (reception will call him) . We took our son aged 5 and all great. Heater... More
