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.

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.

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.

It is an impressive preserved and cared for construction from the year 1886, where every detail is meticulously cared for. If you love the exclusive, this hotel is for you.

We were here just overnight, wish we stayed longer. Beautiful property and amenities. Staff was great and our rooms were over the top

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.

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.

6/10

Amazing grounds, pool and garden. Beautiful old hotel. Unfortunately, I had expectations for a more comfortable bed. I also expected the electricity to work and for their to be a little heat. There was no compensation for the failed electricity. I would definitely choose a different hotel next time and just visit the pool and the hotel. The staff did not care one bit for any of the issues. Disappointing. Go stay in Aswan instead!
2-night trip

4/10

I had 2 rooms for my family, toiletries were more in one room than others. Food is not good, TV has only 3 channels in English and they are all news. The other 70 channels are in Arabic, Italia, French etc.
