    Nasser and his family are wonderful hosts. It's like living at home not in an hotel. Nasser went out of his way to help me and I will visit his family again on my return to Luxor on the 18th. Room was spacious with very comfortable bed,fan and two balconies.

    Nescafè coffee; they could do fresh coffee, Egypt is famous for good coffee. Why Nescafé? Sometimes there was no water in the bathroom but it later came. It’s a large family with children, so it was very noisy at times, you have to bear it. But at night it’s quiet. The hotel is outdated, but it’s cheap.

    I liked breakfast a lot, it was good. The room was large and the bathroom ok with hot water. The staff were friendly, I like family-run businesses because I like contributing to local communities instead of giving money to international corporations.

    Wonderful stay at this charming hotel in Luxor! The breakfast, prepared by the family, was absolutely delightful—especially the fried eggs, which I enjoyed every morning. The owner was incredibly kind and went above and beyond to help us when we arrived, especially after a difficult experience with our driver. His warm hospitality truly made our stay special, and we felt well taken care of throughout our visit. Highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a welcoming and cozy place to stay in Luxor!

    The room was on the third floor, which played on my knees as I am 56. it was a little dusty at first but as soon as we mentioned it they cleaned it and it was much better.

    At first we thought it looked a bit run down but we were not expecting the fantastic welcome we got. We were very well looked after, particularly by Nassr, and we had great experiences as they helped us set up and arrange all of our tours and all for fair prices. The breakfast was wonderful each morning and we ate there twice at other times of the day. We can honestly say it was the best food we have had in Egypt.

    Incredibly loud the first 2 days, with loud music until late at night, but there was a wedding in the family so it's understandable. It was ok the last 2 nights. A bit hard to find (follow maps and not booking), so cardboard would help to find the place

    Nice and helpful staff/owner

    The service, the people is amazing! Always with a smile and ready to assist you with anything you may need. Nasser is the best! You can ask him about tours or where to get a pill and he has the info at the tip of his fingers. I felt really safe and we'll take care. Since I made the reservation and Nasser him self went to pick me up. Amazing!!

    Breakfast was delicious, a fresh egg dish that tasted amazing. The bedrooms were painted really vibrant colours. The place has a lovely outdoor courtyard with a tree that you eat breakfast in. The host Nasser is really kind and made sure I was comfortable and had everything I needed. I did not feel pushed to do anything I didn't want to. Nasser helped organise a hot air balloon ride when I asked, he picked me up from the bus station when I arrived. The hotel also did my laundry for a small extra charge. I really felt at home at this hotel. The upper floors have a gorgeous view of the Nile and it's a relaxed place to be. Tea was offered sometimes without any charge. Overall, the best hotel I stayed at Egypt with tremendous value for money.

    our stay was amazing! The host was always there for whatever you need, we ordered also dinner and the food was excellent, proper Egyptian food for very fair price. The host also helped us to arrange transport to see some of the temples in the outside of Luxor for 500 pound the half day! Very familiar environment, you will feel welcome.

    A fantastic local stay with the nicest family and superb location on West Bank to valley of the kings and queens. I really felt at home, away from home as the friendly family made sure breakfast was ready efficiently for me each morning whenever I liked. I enjoyed sharing the scrumptious fresh cheese and hot pan eggs with their cute little kitten. Best breakfast all trip made with grandmas love and care! So wonderful to have a woman, grandma and kids around to feel comfortable as a solo female traveler. I was at ease at all times. They checked in on me if I was out past dark and left me to a peaceful view when needed. Never pushy always sweet as pie! This place really is a treat and a must stay. Nasser (the manager) even picked me up at the train for no extra cost and escorted me/welcomed me to the hotel to get my bearings. Showed me the local juice shop and arranged anything I needed to see and do. Be sure to stay here on your trip to Luxor!
