“Portia O”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 23, 2013

Just came back from an excellent holiday in Luxor staying at the Nile Palace hotel. I was a little worried before going with regards to recent trouble in Cairo but I need not have worried at all. The town was a little quiet as others must have had similar worries but what a mistake!! The hotel was excellent the staff could not be more helpful and the location and services were top class. The main restaurant overlooks the Nile and breakfast was particularly good with a wide range of different foods and attentive helpful staff. Don't be put off going to Egypt it is a great place and this hotel was excellent.

Room Tip: I chose a room overlooking the inner square of the hotel (rather than a Nile view room) where restau...

“Excellent”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 19, 2013

Had great trip to Luxor in February- particularly helped by this relaxing hotel - breakfast was a really good range of choices while sitting looking over the Nile. The rooms were large and comfortable and the staff more than willing to help with anything. I've never written a review before but was prompted by the situation in Egypt putting people off - don't let it. This was a great holiday and an excellent hotel

Room Tip: Rooms overlooking the Nile are more expensive but a great way to start and end the day. My friend ha...

“Location on Nile is biggest plus”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 17, 2013

This is a typical international style hotel. Absolutely no complaints but also nothing memorable.
After having been touring for 15 days the hotel was very relaxing located on the banks of the Nile.
The hotel is about 15-20 minute walk from the centre but it is a pleasant walk along the corniche.
With tourism down there is a lot of pressure to choose one taxi or horse drawn carriage over another operator.
We found the taxi's e.g. Mr Fish and Mr Chips located outside the hotel were honest and there was no pressure.

Room Tip: Nile side rooms are significantly more expensive but are obviously more pleasant.

“Great choice”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 17, 2013

Stayed here for a couple of nights in February 2013. Couldn't be happier with the choice. The hotel looks really nice, the room was both great and a great deal (it didn't have a Nile view, which would be even better), everyone was nice (which is apparently a constant, at least *within* the hotel premisses, all around Egypt), and the breakfast was very tasty. Watch out for the happy hour at the hotel bars - the view over the Nile at sunset in their balcony is something else...
The only issue I would point out with the hotel is that it's a 15-to-20 min walk from the town centre. Not that that's bad in itself, but it always implies having somebody trying to sell things to you (or just overpaying for a taxi) on the way there - which is something particularly true of Luxor, one of the places most affected by the loss of tourists due to the current political/economic/social unrest - not that any of this unrest is visible as one walks around the city, which I did, for miles and miles, either during the day or at night.
In short, unless there was an even better deal at another 5-star hotel nearer to the centre (and that would always depend on the hotel in question), it's hard to think of a better place to stay in Luxor.

Thank you for your positive feedback.
A review like yours is so encouraging for the team here at our beautiful Steigenberger Nile Palace.It appears from reading your review that you enjoyed all aspects of the hotel. It was delightful to learn that you took advantage of our special offer 'happy hours' in the bars within the hotel.We offer this to our guests so that they may relax or 'chill out' undisturbed on our panoramic Nile lounge bar terrace and absorb the breathtaking sunsets across the river Nile...
It was reasurring for us to read that you understood and sympathized with the situation in Egypt at present regarding the unwanted 'hassle'.However, this did not seem to spoil your ventures outside the hotel as you mention.
We are pleased that you made the best choice of staying with us at Nile Palace!!
We invite you to return at any time...
Kind regards
