As described in the other reviews, this is an excellent place in Luxor.

It is located a few minutes from the ferry, close to a few restaurants and small groceries store, next door to stables where you can find camels or horses to ride and a short taxi ride away from the Valley of the Kings and the other temples.

The hotel is also very nice and clean. The garden restaurant is wonderful and a great polace to make new friends. The breakfast is very good. The service is excellent.

For Christmas eve, the hotel had a special buffet and Egyptian musiciams

We also always feel safe in the area

The location on the West bank was perfect. There are bicycle and quad bike rental shops as well as horse/camels/donkey stables within a short walk. The ferry boat is also close by.

We stayed here 4 nights from De 9 - Dec 13.Great value for money for the hotel as well as the restaurant.
- Outdoors restaurant was very cozy, with a lot of trees and cats around. I would avoid the hotel if you dont like cats. We were there in mid-December and they made fires in the evening you could sit around. Very cozy atmosphere.
- The room was spacious with a lot of shelf space. We thought the pillow cases smelled and put towels over them. Cleanliness of bed sheets and pillow cases is something they could improve on. I'm not sure they change them for every guests Hot water worked properly. The bathroom can get a little messy as there are not shower certains.
- Friendly staff
- Super slow internet; lobby area has wifi
- The management arranged us a day trip to Dendara and Abydos EGP 650, and also another trip to Aswan, stopping at Edfu and Kom Ombo, for the same price. We were happy with these arrangements - very time saving and very convenient. The driver waited for us in front of the temples, we could leave our things the car, and we could take our time.
- Avoid arranging bicycal rentals /quad bike tours through them. For bikes they charged us EGP 20 which they actually rented from a bike shop 15 meters away from the hotel, where you can actaully negotiate for 10. Same for quad bike tours. Just dont rush into booking these things as you can find better deals by just being a little observant on your walk to the ferry.

This is a great little family owned hotel on Luxor's west bank. The location is perfect to see the sites, have quiet a rural village atmosphere, and still be 5 minutes walk/motor-launch to downtown Luxor. The owner Ahmed is a gem and a great guy to share a bottle of "tea" with in the back garden. The food at this place is great, and if you are tired of Egyptian food, try to the pizza. The rooms are new, clean, and comfortable though simple. The service is great and they will do what they can to make your stay comfortable. The back garden restaurant is the the place to be, even if your not staying at the hotel. The beer and wine flow, and the hookahs are plentiful.

I stayed here for three day from Oct. 2nd to Oct. 4th.
This hotel is on the west bank and the price was right, about $20.00 usd a night. Only negative, no pool.

Reception was great, the rooms were clean, had air conditioning but it never got very cold in the room. No t.v. but the food at the garden restaurant was very good.

For the money, it would be hard to beat but just like my first few days in Cairo, next time, I would get a hotel with a pool.
