I booked 2 nights at the Nakhil prior to my Dahabiya trip. Contrary to most of the bookings in the region the response was very prompt. I think the owner (or wife of the owner) is European and you could tell that customer service was different than elsewhere. The hotel is located in a quiet residential area in the west... more

This is a great hotel. The rooms were very clean and nicely decorated, very cute. The bathroom was also spacious and clean. The entire hotel is very inviting and the staff are very friendly and helpful. It is also tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the streets which was really nice. We paid about 35 US dollars a... more

Our experience at El Nakhil was quite good. The hotel staff were friendly. The rooms were clean and fairly big, although to make a double bed, they just pushed together two twin beds. The architecture and atmosphere of the hotel was a plus. The breakfast was okay. You could order an Egyptian or Continental breakfast. The Egyptian breakfast included falafels,... more

We stayed 3 nights in El Nakhil, but would have loved to stay more!! Just add a swimming pool and TV in the rooms, and it would have been the best hotel in Louxor! I told the owners we were coming for our honeymoon, and they took care of plenty of small details to make our stay as pleasant as... more

Other reviews have said it all - a difficult place to leave because of the friendliness and helpfulness of all the staff. It's location is perfect for anyone who wants to sleep peacefully and only be woken by birds in the morning. No annoying TV , telephones, lifts or long noisy corridors. After three weeks in noisy , cluttered but... more

We stayed for the first time in Luxor (Egypt) outside a four or five star hotel, like Winterpalace. Our choice for El Nakhil was easy, because o some friends already recommanded this hotel. The reservation was easy and friendly. The room was spacious and clean for the price. It was surely not "oldfashioned". The bathroom was also clean and well... more

Of all the recently published travel guides I read, none of them give any value to hotels on Luxor's west bank. This little jewel requires the guides to be re-written. With two-stories and a rooftop restaurant, every moment of my trip was met by courteous, polite and understanding staff. As a rather recent addition to the area (only 6-years old)... more

No worries here....rooms and hotel super clean, fresh linens daily, hot water, showers (with curtains which is not the case at some hotels) & some rooms with tubs, very quiet as you can barely hear the Call to Pray and the rooster (which was not the case elsewhere). The owners Salah & Birgit are marvelous!! The staff are all handpicked... more

El Nakhil is very well maintained, very clean and the service by all the hotel and restaurant staff is excellent. Because it is a small family-run hotel at the end of a lane where Egyptian families live, it offers a friendly, welcoming atmosphere where guests and staff get to know each other. The hotel has a lovely landscaped courtyard with... more

Me & my husband stayed at El Nakhil for 5 nights, a couple of months ago. The location, in the West bank is awesome......it's so far away from all the tourist hustle & bustle, that it's actually relaxing! But, if you do want to get into the thick of things, the east bank is close enough. It's a 5 minute... more
