"Unique property, the owners and all the staff were very friendly and helpful. We appreciated the quieter side of Luxor after busy sight seeing days. Boat is complimentary and easy to access to get to the other side. No alcohol but other local bars available if you want to nip out."

"Perfect location to get picked up on your Nile cruise, or even to stay for a few nights, it’s that great here. Pool was amazing, staff was super helpful and nice. Great view of the Nile from our room and from the pool. Go to the Egyptian/international restaurant over the Italian restaurant."

The view over the Nile was gorgeous, but I was concerned about the Animals and their care. I know they are not all yours, but please ensure they are cared for the best possible.

A great choice of hotel. Beautifully presented and in a wonderful spot on the bank of the Nile. Very peaceful and easy to get into town. Professional and friendly staff who seem to genuinely like their jobs, which reflects in a better quality of service. good wifi. Excellent/diverse choice at breakfast buffet. Restaurant and bar pricey though. Yet this is surely the best place to stay in Luxor. We will return.

We have just returned home after a fabulous stay at the Steigenberger Nile Palace and I cannot praise this hotel highly enough. It has recently undergone a renovation which has given the Steigenberger a real 5* rating. The rooms are great and the staff make any stay a fantastic experience. Too many names to mention them all but special thanks to Ahmed, Ashraf, Osama, Aly, Hasan and last but not least Amina, who has made sure that next years trip will be better than ever. For those I have missed...

A fortnight at any hotel can take its toll. By Day 10, you're missing coffee the way you make it yourself and would love a soft poached egg. There are though plenty of options provided by the breakfast buffet and the coffee is bearable and there's plenty to fill up on to start a Luxor day. Energy is needed in Luxor.

Place is nice and the staff amazing they helped me a lot, just if you don’t speak the language difficult to move if is not by taxi they will try to charge you crazy prices. But if you take a tour or you have a bike is handy as is close to the colossi and valley of queens

After the craziness of Cairo it was wonderful to be able to relax in this beautifully calm environment. A short walk from the ferry crossing, up a little lane, mosque and shops on the corner, kids playing. It's about as authentic Luxor as you will get. The British expat community use the hotel for some of their activities. The hotel is built for hot weather; I was there in winter but still it was very comfortable - use the extra blankets.

This hotel was brilliant, fulfilling our requirements. The pool was amazing set by the Nile and the staff were really friendly both around the amenities and in the hotel itself.
The downside was the rooms are a little tried and a refresher should bring it up to western levels.
It is also a little further out of Luxor, making it challenging to escape the offers of taxis and horse carts, when walking into the centre.
