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.

Daile, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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.
REBECCA, 1-night trip

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.

Great location but needing refurbishment

Grand historic hotel with great views. Friendly and helpful staff. Rooms small but comfortable albeit, along with common parts, in need of refurbishment. Nice big swimming pool although water freezing cold in early November.
