    Nothing.

    As well as Aswan, I can fully recommend in Luxor to stay on the west bank of the Nile. I am happy with my choice of this hotel, which is a true oasis of peace and tranquility. I couldn't believe that there is such a peaceful and pleasant place in Luxor that is also not overpriced. The staff is very nice and helpful and I can highly recommend the dinners from the local chef who cooks really well and tasty and is extremly helpful. The breakfasts were also absolutely perfect, with fresh fruit juice and plenty of food. After the hustle of Luxor, we were always happy to return to our room in the tranquility of the garden where all you could hear was the birds singing only. Locality around is extremly good for small shopping of food and meals with no annoying people. We felt safe to walk few km outside of the city.

    At the time we visited (March 24), they didn't accept credit cards and we had to pay cash. It was unexpected, but we were easily able to get cash from the many ATMs around the city.

    Breakfast was fresh flat breads with local cheese, honey and bananas with turkish coffee on request. Staying on the West Bank meant easy access to the Valley of the Kings, Valley of the Queens, & nobles tombs plus a village feel. The hotel is an easy walk from the Nile and ferry jettys.

    The room is a bit dark. It would be a lot better if they have more lightings.

    It’s in good location, about 5-7 minutes to the river side. Plenty of restaurants and mini stores nearby. The staff is very helpful. We felt a little unsafe that 2 guys were following us all the way after we got out from the restaurant. We called the hotel for help and their staff walked us back to the hotel.

    Excellent location, much nicer than being on the East Bank. Shops and amenities around, especially Mohammad's bike shop round the corner where we rented bikes to visit Valley of the Kings etc....Much, much better than going in a taxi and not too far.

    They have screens on the windows, but there are mosquitos, so best to keep the door shut!

    I truly enjoyed the quiet, peaceful atmosphere and the lovely garden. The cook was also very willing to make the food I wanted, which I really appreciated. The shower had immediate hot water and good water pressure. Both the room and bathroom were large. I will be staying at this hotel again.

    Everything was perfect.

    A delightful little oasis boutique style hotel located perfectly away from the bustling streets but with easy access to supermarkets, pharmacy. The cuisine prepared by Hagag was exceptionally delicious - the best meals we had during our whole trip! Thank you for your warm hospitality. The perfect hotel to unwind listening to the chirping of the birds and complete our majestic trip to Egypt. We look forward to our next visit!

    It is a cozy oasis in Luxor! Really love the quiet and elegant atmosphere there. The equipments are not new, but maintained pretty well and have a nostalgic feeling. It located very close to the public ferry port in West bank, you can simply walk even with backpack. Also, the mini superstore outside the alley is very convenient with reasonable price 👍🏽

    The shower was quite small for how large the bathroom is, otherwise no complaints.

    Room was very clean and large. The breakfast was served whenever we wanted, including very early the day we left, and while fairly basic was a good start to the day with some colder foods. Staff was accommodating, when our AC was making loud sounds they said if they couldn't fix it they could move us to another room. The location is great, an easy local ferry ride over the river but nice and quiet.

    Although it worked, the pressure in the shower was quite poor to the extent that it made showering more difficult than it should be and made it impossible to wash long hair.

    This is a great value hotel with friendly staff who are very accommodating. We were initially put in a very dark and dingy room with almost no light but when I asked to be put in a brighter room, we were shown to a second floor room with plenty of light, a private balcony and a pleasant aspect overlooking the garden which was full of singing birds in the mornings. The bed was a decent size and although the mattress was on the firm side, it was better than many Egyptian mattresses which tend towards the firm end of the scale. They were very happy to provide us with extra pillows. The reception was able to organize guides for us at very reasonable prices and organized coffee for us when we got up at the crack of dawn to beat the crowds to the valley of the kings and Karnak. While the location of the hotel in an unpaved back street seems at first to be offputting, it is quiet (a valuable asset in a country which can be very noisy) and never felt threatening. Additionally, it is within easy walking distance of the public ferry which takes you across the nile for just EGP5. All in all, a great find.

    I liked everything about the property.

    There is an old world charm about the place. The room I stayed and was really big and the bathroom is very big too. I was extremely comfortable staying there. My room was on the ground floor, so I had no problems accessing my room. It was quiet and safe for a solo, female traveler. I had forgotten my reading glasses when I checked out of the hotel, and the manager was very kind to have them sent to my next hotel. It is this kind of caring and service that make this place exceptional.

    The only issues.were it was a little hard to find and that there was no shower gel or shampoo, but apart from that no major issues.

    The owner was very friendly and had our back when our taxi driver tried to over charge us. Soon after checking us in, he went to the kitchen and cooked us a great meal. The rooms were a good size and were well presented. Could comfortably fit 3 guys in a treble room. The area was quiet so we got a restful night's sleep.
