Very historical, well placed property. Beautiful gardens and pool (the biggest gardens in Luxor). Great location - 5 minute walk to Luxor Temple.
The facilities are a little dated, and there is no gym or spa, but it’s the best hotel in Luxor and the staff is fantastic
Wonderful old world historic hotel with friendly staff. The old part of the hotel has rooms facing the Nile, which, while pretty, are noisier than other rooms.
A very unique and historic property that brings Victorian charm to an ancient city. Delicious dining options and easy access to historic sites such as Luxor temple made the stay very memorable.
Excellent hotel. Historic building. Located in on the coronation. Accessible walking to the temple of looks phenomenal hotel beautiful gardens Pool highly recommended. Great restaurant great service wonderful experience.
This heritage hotel transports you back to that heyday of glamorous travel and the staff excel all expectations of hospitality. There's no other property with these views, the location is excellent - opposed the Nile with views across to the Valley of the Kings and right next to Luxor temple
Best hotel expirience ever
I had dreamed of staying in this hotel since I was a child, and it exceeded my expectations!! Outstanding customer service!!
Mohamed salah and Endrawes really went out of their wayto make my stay epic!!

Classy Hotel with Old World Charm
Amazing…this hotel is true class all the way. It is stunningly beautiful, perfect location, the staff are so helpful, polite, and friendly. And the rooms and grounds are lovely. The dining is amazing…the food selection is so diverse. Throw back to an age of blissful charm.
Second visit. I just love the Agatha Christie feel about the place. Nostalgic. Historic. Loved that my balcony overlooked the Nile and I could watch the sunset from there.
It’s a stunningly beautiful hotel that brings you back in time when an actual king used as his winter palace.
Breakfast was excellent, bar atmosphere was elegant, and both restaurant options excellent.
Highly, highly recommend.
Immaculate service by the staff. The hotel itself is great but the crew are what make it unforgetable. All the employees we met were friendly and went out of their way to make sure we had a great stay.
I come here since 1985, sometimes often sometimes less often, I come home! I like that style of hotel, welcome back nice to see you😊. Lovely pool super service etc. hope to come back soon…
Life goals - stay in a palace. Completed!! This hotel was incredible and had a beautiful view of the water (Nile), you could stroll at night and visit the Luxor temple. The bathroom and large patio off the bedroom were stunning. The breakfast on fine china and delicious eats was one of the best I’d had in a while. Will definitely return to this place that was comfort and heaven in every way.
