Overpriced and falling down. Surly, rude staff who cared nothing about customers. Forgotten something? Just walk around the balcony, enter any room (locks have all be busted off) take the safe (not bolted down) or whatever clothes you want. Get frozen by the aircon just above your ear when in bed. (see the photos) You won't be sleeping though as... More

We stayed several nights here with our tour group and the location was great, within walking distance to many places and a market right across the street. The breakfast was good and the hotel staff was helpful with questions, helping us mail out postcards and the laundry service was great! Our room was pretty small and a little worn down... More

We stayed in this hotel for one night as part of our tour in Luxor. We checked in with our tour manager who booked the room for us and he managed to negotiate a check out time of 6 p.m with the reception as we were due to depart until 11 p.m. the next day via train. The porter took... More

Great hotel, we loved it. We booked this place online and we were actually surprised what we got for our money. We had a good stay here, can;t fault it and would highly recommend this hotel. More

There is a small bar on the far side of the lobby where you can get drinks for a reasonable price. The swimming pool was very nice, plenty of... More

I can say two good things about this hotel: the housekeeping staff did a good job cleaning the room, and the employee who cooks eggs in the dining room can whip up a basic tasty omelette in only a few minutes. As for the rest, I suspect that the owner of this hotel is worried that the governor of Luxor... More

Xmas 2010 Arrived Dec 13th at 7.30pm. We walked to the desk, handed them our paperwork and suddenly the manager appeared and demanded £40 for the Xmas dinner. I refused to pay him and he again demanded it and wouldn't give us the room key. Told us we would have to wait till the rep came at about 8.30. after... More

The trouble started already on arrival - the manager wanted us to pay also for an "obligatory" x-mas dinner, which was originally not included in the booking. We had later another issue and in both cases the problem was only solved by involving our booking agent. The hotel itself could be standing anywhere - do you expect to find paintings... More
