“Nice clean rooms but very noisy”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed March 19, 2012

We stayed here for a night during our Intrepid Egypt adventure tour. The rooms were clean, the beds were comfy and the bathrooms were clean too. We had a balcony in our room. There is a swimming pool on the top floor which is the size of a paddling pool, there is no deck chair or bar on the roof. The major issue at this hotel was noise. The hotel is located next to an amusement park which does not close till midnight. Even with all the windows and doors closed the noise was too loud (sound travels through the aircon vents). We struggled to sleep even with earplugs. There are few very nice restaurants next to the hotel which we loved.

“Decent, not great.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed March 12, 2012

I stayed in this hotel as part of a group tour. It was a decent hotel and it met the minimum requirements of a hotel (place to sleep and shower). The hot water did not work in our room upon arrival and someone fixed it almost immediately. The door to our balcony didn't close (or lock) all the way and that was a bit concerning to me and it made the street noises a bit more noticeable at night. It is located on a fairly quiet street though and a mini-market is right down the street. There are also quite a few restaurants very close.

“Hot water!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed January 31, 2012

The staff here were very welcoming. First thing we wanted was a hot shower to freshen up. Each room has its own hot water system in the bathroom which really doesn’t hold enough for two people to each have a decent shower which we found out the hard way.

Each room also has its own heater/air conditioner but unfortunately the heat didn’t work in one of our rooms (we had two rooms for a family of four).

Both of our rooms looked out to the road where there was a fun park across the road which was quite noisy at night but there were lots of street noises that made up the sounds of Luxor which I felt made it more interesting.

There are restaurants right near the hotel and also a supermarket and mini-mart. It’s not too far from anything and taxis are inexpensive.

We did an early morning balloon flight so didn’t eat at the hotel but did get a breakfast box to take with us. It was your standard Egyptian hotel type breakfast of breads, jam, honey, meat, tomato, cheese, fruit and pastries.

We were on a tour so this wasn’t our hotel choice and the one thing that would put me off returning here (in winter) is the hot water. Summer visitors might not find that an issue though.

Room Tip: If you don't mind the city sounds ask for rooms overlooking the street.

“Good Hotel, clean, not expensive”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 21, 2011

Sometimes I read reviews on T A and while I appreciate everyone is entitled to their opinion I can't believe we have stayed/eaten/visited the same places. This hotel is NOT 5 * and I believe you get what you pay for. I found this hotel for a very fussy friend, she visits Luxor 2 or 3 times every year and has done for many years, since I introduced her to this hotel she has never stayed anywhere else. The rooms are clean, the staff helpful and the owner Mr Adel would never let anything bad happen in this hotel any complaint would be dealt with immediately. There is a pool on the roof and I have visited many times, the only people I have every seen on the roof is a waiter asking if you need drinks/food or the bouseboy who brings towels for guests who want to swim and he doesnt stay, delivers the towels and disapears again. My only complaint, and yes I have also stayed there several times, is the breakfast is the same every day for years now... no choices, you get breakfast and that is that.. however if you want 5 * breakfast them pay for 5* service in the big hotels, you actually get 5* service from the staff. I have no complaints about this hotel at all, some people are not happy unless they complain and if they that unhappy let them go and complain about another hotel next time.....
