Luxor hotellit lähellä Luxor Temple

Plussat: Absolutely stunning grounds created an oasis of tranquility and beauty.

Miinukset: Vendors assail you almost immediately at the hotel exit. This was the experience in Luxor but repeated throughout many of Egypt's tourist areas. luxor

Plussat: The staff were absolutely wonderful. So helpful and kind in every way. The room was very comfortable and our view on the garden was magical. I Can't wait to go back!

Plussat: The hotel has very attractive grounds, the room was fine and breakfast excellent. The restaurant on site was also very good.

Miinukset: Not a major problem but there is a long walk through the gardens to the reception which, particularly in the dark, was quite confusing. and there were no signs to indicate the correct way. Similarly there were no signs to direct us to the restaurant which was about 400 m. away across the gardens.

Plussat: The grounds are stunning. The garden is huge and super well kept, I know people come to this hotel just to see the garden. Very nice place to chill out away from the hassle you get on the streets. The pool is also great. The staff were very friendly and the breakfast was good. Overall this hotel was beautiful

Miinukset: Needs a little bit of updating inside...the rooms are nice but age is showing in some bits with the carpets...the AC barely worked and the TV had an awful signal. The food is ok...its a bit burger and chips and sandwich type menu...more egyptian/eastern food would be nice.

Plussat: I like the pool

Miinukset: Nothing to think of

Plussat: The pavilion has a very good breakfast. It also shares all the major amenities with the winter palace for a third of the price. For instance, you can go to the winter palace for a drink and charge it to your room and the swimming pool is shared and lovely!

Miinukset: The WiFi was very poor in our room, but decent in the common areas. If I had to work while at the hotel, I could not have counted on the WiFi.

Plussat: They have the most beautiful big garden. You will not find anything comparable in Egypt. This was especially great, since the city itself is not that nice to walk through. The hotel is also directly next to the Luxor temple the Nile and close to the train station. We liked to use the back entrance to get away from the taxi drivers next to the Nile. The breakfast is very good with lots of options. The staff was very helpful with all kinds of questions we had. Overall it was a very nice stay and we would come back anytime.

Miinukset: You can not expect German standard . House keeping sometimes came in the afternoon or even evening. Our safe did not work, but the personnel did fix the problem immediately. The most annoying thing was the mezzanine of the neighboring mosque. He is very very loud, especially at night, but you can’t change that.

Plussat: Centre of town

Miinukset: It’s not very clean & could do with a total renovation

Plussat: Breakfast had plenty of options and the service was excellent. It was a bonus to sit near the garden and watch the sun come up. Pool was amazing after a long hectic day. Room service was quick and tasty. Cocktails in the bar were top notch. The setting in general was a beautiful step back in time and reminder of those that came before us.

Miinukset: I ordered the same thing every night from Room Service, but the order was inconsistent in size. One night I ordered a lentil soup and it was one size. The next night I ordered two lentil soups and they were bigger bowls of soup. The third night I ordered one bowl and again it was the smaller bowl of soup. Delicious, but inconsistent.

Plussat: This place is full of history, I mean the complex between the new and the old Winter Palace Luxor Hotel with a STUNNING garden. Great swimming pool with sunbeds and towels. The staff was very nice from the start to the end. The room was nice, the bathroom as well. The bed comfortable and good bedsheets and good mattress. They gave us the quiet one as we requested and we had a cool balcony with gorgeous garden view. Well located in Luxor. We recommend this place!

Miinukset: not so so clean.. passable.

Plussat: Vaikka majoituin huomattavasti halvemmassa Pavillionissa, pääsin käyttämään Winter Palacen palveluja, kuten ravintoloita, uima-allasaluetta, puutarhaa jne. Aamiainen oli Pavillionin asukkaille omassa tilassa, mutta sielläkin sai 5-tähden palvelua munakaskokkeineen. Hotellin sijainti on hyvä. Moskeija on kyllä lähellä, joten rukouskutsut kuuluvat hyvin. Huone oli todella siisti kylppäriä myöten, vaikka käytävävien matot kertoivatkin, että huoneet taitavat olla jo vuodelta 1997. Parveke puutarhaan oli ihana.

Miinukset: Rukouskutsu herätti joka aamu klo 5, mutta niinhän se aina tapahtuu muslimimaissa.

Plussat: Lovely pool area. Good cocktails

Plussat: We were at the same hotel last year. The hotel is set amongst beautiful gardens that are immaculately kept and a peaceful haven from the outside turmoil.

Miinukset: 99% of the staff were extremely helpful and friendly, however, sadly this was offset by three members who seriously need some training in how to deal with the public.

Plussat: We honestly didn't know what to expect but the hotel was really great! friendly staff and clean big rooms. The hotel is really very well run and I highly recommend it,I can say that our favourite city in Egypt was Luxor because of our stay at this hotel and also the day tours and nile cruise holiday we booked online with Beauty of Egypt tour company which was excellent in every way.

Miinukset: no thing really!

Plussat: Location near the Winter Palace is excellent, great Swimming Pool

Miinukset: Private Wifi insanely expensive but one old computer at reception provided free for 15 min., Rooms were worn out, carpets quite dirty, prices of food and drinks very high. Kind of anonymous treatment.

Plussat: Spacious room over looking lawn area, great pool - suitable for laps or lounging about.

Miinukset: House keeping tried to access our room (barge in) at 6:30am on our last day, lucky the chain was attached. Price of internet ridiculious, it's free at a cafe just up the road!

Plussat: very calm good located beautiful swimming pool and garden. Staff very kind.

Miinukset: The swimmingpoll was closed too early in the afternoon

Plussat: Great location next to Luxor Temple. Beautiful pool and gardens.

Miinukset: Not enough dining options - especially for lunch. Furniture was outdated as well as carpets.

Plussat: reception safe were very friendly. The grounds were kept extremely clean and tidy.

Plussat: wonderful hotel,full of character. ..Great food,in particular breakfast was simply superb.the confectionery unbeatable..Confortable room kept very clean.The sunset from the room balcony overlooking the tropical garden unforgettable!

Plussat: This hotel is a beautiful Oasis of rest and relaxation inside the dirt, noise, crime, and poverty of Egypt. Its beautiful large gardens and pool allowed us to walk outside by ourselves without being accosted or needing a guide and guard. It was really wonderful.

Plussat: Loved the roof terrace area, where you can see for miles. The food was good and in line with the price. The staff were friendly, and particularly the young staff members. The West Bank of Luxor is a much quieter place to be than the East.

Miinukset: We arrived quite tired and were 'treated' to a cup of tea by the owner, who took this opportunity to hard-sell a day trip, at an exorbitant price. We haggled him down a bit, but it was still an expensive trip, with a disappointing tour guide who seemed to know less than us about the places we went to. He also took us into the 'Alabaster Village' tourist trap (we didn't want to go), and demanded a tip at the end of the day, on top of the really high price. This really marred our experience of The Cleopatra Hotel.

Plussat: Situated on the West Bank away from the touristy East Bank we felt like being among the real Luxorians. It's the best experience we could have wished for in bussling Luxor. The room was very nicely decorated and clean. Also, Mahmoud is a great host looking after all your needs and he is a great chef too. There are also plenty of nice restaurants around.

Miinukset: N/A

Plussat: Everything was truly amazing! The staff, the hospitality, the kindness, the warm welcome, the extra mile they go, the big smile they always have! I had the perfect time there. And Mahmoud in the restaurant at the rooftop (with a breathtaking view btw!!!) just made all my days shining with happiness, with his kindness, super attitude and lovely morning conversations!!!

Miinukset: I loved everything!!!

Plussat: What a wonderful place! Very clean, comfortable, delicious breakfast with marvellous view, comfy bed and the team who made me feel so welcome. I loved it and would recommend to anyone who wants a cozy place where you can relax and enjoy! :) great value for money, way beyond my expectations! Maja

Plussat: Nice Egyptian themed building with friendly staff. The breakfast was amazing!! The staff were very friendly and would ask us what our plans were all the time. This could be confused with pushy salesman techniques, however I don’t think that was the case. They just wanted to make sure we had the best experience possible.

Miinukset: Wifi is basically non existent. Very frustrating but what can you do?!

Plussat: The owner and staff tried very hard to make us happy. We were very impressed. Location is more relaxing than the East bank.

Miinukset: The West Bank tour we booked through the hotel was very enjoyable. But the price was deeper than expected.

Plussat: Fantastic place close to the monuments of Luxor West Bank. The members of the staff are helpful and friendly, the breakfast is fantastic, the room was clean and comfortable, the rooftop has a unique view. Many thanks, Hotel Cleopatra was really our second home, and we hope to be that in the very near future!

Miinukset: nothing

Plussat: The Cleopatra hotel is located in a quiet location on the west bank. It has a lovely dining are on the top of the hotel and the food is very good. For the price it's a bargain. To get to the east bank the ferry is a 5 minute walk .

Miinukset: It was my final destination in Egypt. So going home I didn't like!

Plussat: They were super helpful and made our stay amazing. Anything we asked they had an answer, offering several options and even organized things for us. We didn't have to get a guide if we didn't want, they provided inexpensive transportation all day, whenever we wanted. So awesome. Will definitely come back and stay at this property again.

Miinukset: Actually, we wouldn't change a thing. For the price of what you pay it would be 10 times the cost in other countries. Keep up the great work Cleopatra Hotel!!

Plussat: Location Value for money Breakfast

Miinukset: Internet weak and they charge for it Business center cannot handle flash drives No heating in rooms Inadequate electrical outlets

Plussat: Worth the money

Miinukset: Medicre food

Plussat: I loved the amenities that the hotel offered. The pool was beautiful and relaxing. The movie screen set up at night was wonderful. The food was delicious. The staff was very attentive. The variety of shops were plentiful.

Miinukset: No.

Plussat: Style

Miinukset: Water factory very noisy near the hotel

Plussat: We stayed at this hotel for a week during our visit to Luxor. I highly recommend staying on the West Bank where El Mesala is located. The room was simple but well appointed w/fridge, side tables, tv & balcony with fantastic views of the Nile and so, so clean! They clean the rooms & give fresh towels daily. It’s super close to the ferry dock so is convenient for visiting the east bank, too. Breakfast was huge and always carried us through til the afternoon. We truly can’t say enough good things about this fabulous hotel. We were sad to leave.

Plussat: The view was amazing, the staff was very helpful, the food at the restaurant was wonderful.

Miinukset: Spotty Wifi and intermittent water outages

Plussat: I like staff of the hotel and willingness to help with anything. They where acceptable to my questions and requests.

Miinukset: its was ok.

Plussat: Everything. 10 out of 10 best place for the price to stay in Luxor My stay At El Mesala hotel could not have been better the hotel is very clean It is run by a very nice family from Luxor in very good spot on the side of the Nile near to all the tombs and the temples It has the best views of Luxor temple and the Nile Small walk to the local ferry and motor boats Excellent breakfast and fantastic food in the rooftop restaurant lunch and evening Mohamed and Ahmed the owners can't do enough to help, They will arrange tours and trips to any of the sites and temples hot air balloon rides Quad bike rides at very good prices there's lovely pool with sun loungers you can rest and cool off . I love Luxor and will be back to the El Mesala as soon as l can be

Plussat: Great location - recommend the Nile view rooms. Family run, very friendly staff

Miinukset: The shower cubicle was a bit small for me

Plussat: Lovely cozy hotel with a family atmosphere. Everybody at the hotel, including the owner, receptionist, cleaning and kitchen staff, was extremely attentive and helpful. Good breakfast. Great location - very close to the ferry. Overall, very good value for the money.

Miinukset: The heater didn’t work, but it didn’t bother me much since it was quite warm. TV didn’t work either.

Plussat: Great location and view of the Nile

Plussat: The accommodation was lovely and so were the majority of the staff. just be very careful of the people that continually ask for money from you as some of them can be a lot to deal with

Miinukset: We had someone clean our room and we needed an adaptor to charge our phones as we forgot it so we asked one of the house keepers if he could get one for us and we gave him the money and expected the majority bk in change. It would have been about 50 Egyptian pounds. We gave him 400 Egyptian pounds just in case and we were going to give him a nice tip for helping us as we didn’t know where to go. He took it all and we didn’t get nothing in change bk. Then he said that the he got his brother to get it from some electronic store and it cost the full 400 Egyptian pounds and when my partner questioned him on it he then said ow I gave some of the money to the cab to get there and come to the resort but it still wouldn’t have cost that much. He continued to come up with other excuses to why we didn’t get any change bk. We had enough and told him we were not happy and he is to never come to our room again. We informed the reception staff and refused him coming to our room again and also insisted on no house keeping cleaners or anyone enter our room as we didn’t feel safe with our belongings that someone could potentially steel off us as we practically were taken for a ride with the guy that got us the adaptor. Other than that. Everything else was ok

Plussat: Very good breakfast and nice pool facility. The dinner facilities offered could be improved, although the buffer service was not available due to lack of people staying at hotel. Room was clean and comfortable.

Miinukset: lack of people. dinner wasnt anything special and pricey for what it was

Plussat: The Nile view was exceptional by all means specially at sunset. Reception crew were friendly. Breakfast was awesome. Location is good and very calm. Hotel is very clean. There were kettle and free refilled coffee & tea at room, it is a nice gesture from the Hotel.

Miinukset: The sound isolation from outside room (corridor) is not good, you can hear every single step. A vacuum cleaner was working round the clock and too noisy (even at night) , but it is good they are concerned with the cleanliness of the hotel.

Plussat: Great value and facilities.

Miinukset: WiFi is useless.

Plussat: Good all round facsilities

Miinukset: Waiters attentive if female!!

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Old premises, extremely dirty facilities,

Plussat: Nice swimming pools, great breakfast buffet, and the hotel is in a fantastic location adjacent to the Nile.

Miinukset: Meal prices in the hotel are way too high for Egypt, as is the charge for use of the internet. The internet cafe outside the hotel entrance charges 15 Egyptian pounds per hour compared with the Sheraton's 80 pounds per hour.

Plussat: Staff were mostly friendly, facilities were good

Miinukset: On arrival they had no record of my booking, I had to wait almost 30 minutes to check in, they should solve their administrative problems in their own time, I had just come off a flight was tired and hot, I did not need to stand in reception when they solved their internal admin problems.

Plussat: The swimming pool just near the Nile

Plussat: Clean, spacious, excellent breakfast, friendly staff, marvelous view of the Nile and west side, very serene and quiet.

Plussat: Siisti. Hieno hotelli niilin ranta...allasalue.

Plussat: Great value, very good breakfast, excellent pool, comfortable room.

Miinukset: Some of the staff followed us trying to get a tip (as many people do in Egypt). It feels uncomfortable when you say no and they turn around cursing in Arabic. I can tolerate it from people on the street but not from hotel staff.

Plussat: I must big thanks to dry clean guy he was so nice and he found money in my jacket and he rutrun back I really appreciated that

Plussat: The nostalgia everything brings good old memories and the fantastic nature that surrounds the place

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: good facilites

Miinukset: the hotel was very dusty. when we arrived we were given the wrong room, we ordered the superior room, but was offered a smaller room. we were told that it was an error on booking.com. after complaining and 1 hour of waiting we were upgraded to room that was displayed on booking.com. not a good start to the honeymoon. so check out ur room carefully....the first day we arrived for breakfast it chaos, there was too many guests and not enough staff, no cuttlery, or plates , hygene was to a poor standard, the staff were using existing table cloths. the cuttlery that was left by previous customers was just added too, not sure if they had used the cuttlery or not.. 5 star not so sure

Plussat: Location was excellent right on the Nile - watching hot air balloons rise on the west bank in the early morning mist. Swimming Pool was good - pleasant setting

Miinukset: The standard in the hotel restaurants was poor.The standard of cleanliness in the room was not what I would expect from a 4 star hotel - my bedsheets were grey not white and had holes in them

Plussat: The staff was very friendly and the hotel was comfortable.

Miinukset: The food in the Chinese restaurant of the hotel is not good.

Plussat: The hotel is very good value for money and has a nice outdoor bar overlooking the Nile.

Miinukset: The beds are incredibly hard. The room was tired looking, the bathroom very basic and it could have been cleaner. Still, we only needed a room for a few hours between disembarking from a Nile cruise and flying out of Luxor, so it suited our purposes well.

Plussat: Ideally situated for people who want to learn about pharonic egypt

Plussat: We stayed in a Junior suite and it was very large and had a wonderful view of the Nile.

Miinukset: I had emailed the hotel and asked for an early check-in. They replied by email that I could do that. When I checked-in they told me that was not possible even though I had the email from them. They were not appologitic at all and did not offer anything for this inconvenience. They wouldn't even let us eat breakfast (on them) since it was so early and we just needed a place to wait for a while.

Plussat: Large room, friendly housekeeping staff, good Italian restaurant

Miinukset: Reservation staff at check-in disorganised and not overly helpful

Plussat: The very nice suite with two balconies and view over Nile

Plussat: location

Miinukset: cleaning, furniture, the pool is not warm as they said. expensive according to next hotels

Miinukset: The hotel gave me a credit card form to sign on arrival - I only noticed later that it was a cash advance form, not the usual debit form, so the credit card company will start charging interest immediately, rather a sneaky trick!

Plussat: friendly staff, near to the city and the temple, big room

Miinukset: we had to pay for internet

Miinukset: The hotel needs some renuvation

Plussat: the location is good. in front of a ferry, with very beautiful scenery in the evening

Plussat: the staff very friendly, clean and tidy room, clean bathroom, beautiful view on Nile, close to Luxor and Karnak temples, close to airline office..

Miinukset: the food was acceptable, but it should be improved in quality and variety.

Plussat: i found that the staff were pleasant , helpful & the building was of sound structure .

Plussat: Nice size room and clean and decent facilities compare to other Egypt accomodation. Excellent location. ( near to train station (~10 min), market (~5 min), Luxor (~ 5min) and Karnak temple (~ 15min), Luxor Museum (~ 7min), heart of Luxor city etc.)

Miinukset: Toilet bath: hot water was not hot enough.Far too many tourist hunters waiting around hotel. e.g taxi drivers, horse carrage, cruise tour etc. They fight for the tourist, cheat and lies to get more money off from the tourist and hotel does not help to get around these nuisance people, but often shows ignorance. Also items such as shapoo was not new (it was something that left over from previous user)

Miinukset: They checked us in before the room was ready so ofcourse it was dirty , instead of telling us to wait. The receptionest was not respectful nor apologetic.It was barely acceptable.The food was bad.The reception bathroom was in a rough shape.

Plussat: All was amazing

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Very low level hotel. No maintaining. Never this 3 stars hitel. We fight until they open air condition
