    Hotel staff was very friendly and cooperative. Rooms were very clean and quite. The ambience was extremely beautiful. More restaurants were nearby, besides the Nile river. Recommended for travelers with or without family. Looking forward to stay at this hotel again in my next trip to Luxor.

    Although it didn’t detract from our stay, some of the fixtures and fittings could do with an update - eg plugs loose in the wall. The WiFi also was patchy in our room but worked well on the rooftop.

    A lovely stay - we even ended up adding an extra night! Ragab was an excellent host, sorting all we needed for our stay in Luxor at competitive prices and with great service (all our drivers were great!). Big breakfasts (and big packed lunches!), spacious room with balcony, and an enviable location on the pretty West Bank near to all the relevant restaurants. Would definitely stay again. Thank you!

    I know it's Egypt and there is sand everywhere, but the rooms can use a bit more thorough cleaning - there were feathers (not 1 but 3?) in our room because there are birds nesting near the Aircon... bathroom had some stains, bed sheets had some stains. Other than that, okay.

    Located in the much quieter side of Luxor's Nile, this is perfect for those visitors who do not want to deal with the hassle of Luxor's East Bank but still want convenient access to major tourist sites. The place comes with a well-maintained garden, a roofdeck, excellent bathrooms with great showers, a small balcony, and Wifi that works great in the main areas, not perfect in the rooms we stayed in. The breakfast was delicious but nothing extraordinary - some of the other comments are overselling it a bit in my opinion.

    Had a great time at El Gezirah on the west side of Luxor. The accommodation is well cared for by Egyptian standards and met all my expectations. There is a nice terrace on the roof where you can have a quiet breakfast and good food, so it's a great hotel without a lot of fuss. Of the entire team, Ragab is the one who knows the most, without being pushy he has been able to help me several times. I will definitely return here next time. I can recommend it to everyone

    - A bit overpriced - at the restaurant the staff could clean better tables

    - Big room and clean with balcony - The restaurant has very nice decoration. It’s very cozy. Perfect to take a break after a intense day. - Quiet place but close to the public ferry boat : convenient location - The receptionist was very very helpful and professional.

    - sometimes there was no hot water, but that’s normal in Egypt. - the refrigerator in the room was very loud, so we turned it off. - it’s easy to confuse this place with the Gezira Garden Hotel - the direct surroundings of the hotel are a bit shabby.

    - breakfast was very good! - the rooms are spacious and nicely decorated - it’s close to the Nile and to the attractions on this side of the river. - friendly and helpful staff - overall this is a great place to stay in Luxor! - it’s good value for your money

    As the area is quite dusty the floors in your room will be as well. But that has little to do with how they clean. Put room was cleaned every day. The only thing to mention is that the rooms are big but furniture is a bit older. Anyhow the mattress is comfortable and sheets are fresh.

    First of all staying in West Bank is a nice option as many early morning activities are on this side. The Gezira Hotel is one of the best choices here as it is close to the water and the staff here is exceptional. They make you feel so welcomed and help you out with any request. Also the included breakfast is so much we had to order less the next day. For sure go for the oriental breakfast as all local food here is delicious. We also had dinner in the hotel three out of four nights and enjoyed it a lot. There were many vegan and vegetarian options and the mango juice is also amazing!

    The bathroom was small and congested.

    Clean rooms, very nice people who very kind, friendly, understood our needs and accommodated us very well. We arrived very late in the night and the kitchen was closed. Upon request, they provided us some bread, jam and butter. If we went back, i would choose this hotel again. They've 2 hotels close to each other, one more modern than the other.

    They are loud at reception and you hear everything. It sounds like they're arguing big time, but sometimes in Arabic, they're just talking normally. I never know if they argue or just plain talk.

    The staff and the restaurant. In the evening, the restaurant is like paradise with a view over Luxor on the other bank. Many people, foreigners & Egyptians alike, come for dinner or just a beer after work. The food is delicious. This morning I went by taxi to the Valley of the Kings, I asked for it at reception. The driver was punctual at 5:30, meaning I was on-site for the opening and could enjoy being there alone in the tumbs at sunrise from 6 to 7am. The taxi driver was respectful and never tried to scam more unwanted services or backschich out of me. The staff prepared a breakfast box to take away, which at first I didn't want, but was happy to find and eat in the taxi. In the afternoon they let me have a nap, shower and pack my luggage, checking out at 6pm to take my train to Aswan.

    AC makes quite loud vibration when it's working which might be annoying if you want to sleep in calm. There was no hot water in the bathroom. But because of the heat outside this wasn't a big problem. Water drain in the bathroom is not good and water pressure is weak.

    The stuff is really friendly and the location is near the public ferry. It's a really good place to stay on the west bank, there are some great restaurants and cafes nearby. We enjoyed our stay here. Thanks 🙏

    Can get easily confused and mixed with the similar name Gezira garden hotel.

    We had a really good experience with this hotel, we can only recommend to anyone who would like to have a great time in Luxor. The hotel is close to the ferry, so the east bank can easily reachable. The room was big enough for two people and well equiped. The breakfast was also great. The people at the hotel was very nice and helpful, especially Ragab our host. We asked for some activity and he managed for us at a very good price. Overall we are very satisfied with our pick.

    We really enjoyed our stay at El Gezira Hotel. The location is super, just a short walk to the ferry to the East bank. The place is a bit old but it was spotlessly clean and we felt very comfortable staying there in all ways. The staff was very kind, warm and welcoming, especially Mr Ragab in the reception was extremely helpful with arranging trips in the area, transportation to Hurghada and did what he could to make our stay very pleasant and comfortable. We highly recommend this hotel.

    This place has a really nice courtyard and fantastic terrace. The breakfast was really good. The host was very nice and welcoming. Very quite place most of the times. Prefect location, we much prefer West Bank over East Bank.
