Date : 25th November 2007

We have just returned from Rome (5 days city-break) where we stayed in Luxor. It wasn't great... The hotel have a very good location - close enough to most of the major attractions, but .... First of all it is very small hotel, very hard to find - tiny sign and at the time we went - covered by some sheets for renovation. it would be OK if they put some sings outside covers. but the issue for us was the water. if you want to have a shower you have an option boiling or freezing cold water, there was no way to set the water temp - very annoying. next thing - the noise. the hotel is located at the corner of 2 very busy streets, and all night and day the noise was really tiresome. you would need earplugs.

rooms are tiny - but you can cope with that - at the and of the day you are outside.

breakfast - OK, nothing special - croissant, bread roll, some spread cheese and jam, tea or coffee. there is air conditioning but it didnt work (november in rome is quite cold) but i would assume that in the summer - there could be a problem with it - looking at all facilities

i dont give them much credit. so location - good and the rest - not so much.

Stayed at Luxor for 5 nights.
Pros: centreal location near termini station. breakfast is ok. That's about it.

Cons: hot water ran out every time we took a shower. Often had to wait 15 minutes for hot water to come back. Showers and washroom are are extremely tight. Rooms are very small and smell very bad. Noisy location. Paint is peeling in the room. I have stayed at numerous hotels in Italy and there is no reason this should be rated 3 stars. 2 stars at best.

Single rooms are clean but small,expecially the bathroom.
Loocation is central for business traveler, near governmental offices and agencies. The price is in the low range for Rome.
Unfortunately, rooms with windows on main street are noisy.
