We had the best time in Luxor thanks to the team. Belal was extremely helpful, always here and making sure we didn't miss a thing. We traveled as a family and the guest house was what we needed for our stay. My son didn't want to leave. Having the swimming pool open at all time was perfect, and the location of the house was really good as we could head out downtown pretty easily. I really recommend the place. Thank you to Sayed and especially to Belal for this wonderful stay.

At the hostel, all rooms have a wardrobe, bed linen and a balcony with a city view. The rooms include a kettle, while some rooms also offer a terrace and others also have river views. All guest rooms will provide guests with a fridge.

This lovely hotel is located in the best part of the city for touristic visits; with a room and balconies facing the Sphinx road connecting Luxor and Karnak Temples, it’s 3 minutes walking distance to the Nile River, Luxor Museum, as well as to the Luxor Temple. Taxis and horse carriages are always available at the end of the street, as well as the ferry and sailboat ports that are all 3 to 5 minutes walk from the hotel. And you can walk to Karnak Museum in 25 minutes. The place is very clean, lovely and cozy with a simple and nice decoration. The breakfasts that Mrs. Adel prepares are amazing, and makes you more than full for the day long, with his little boy Muhammed they make your day sunny with a full smile. Mohaz is helpful with everything you need, and off course, Mr. Omar, the manager of the place is a beautiful kind person with the best English that you may find around and he is eager to arrange your travel needs in minutes. As if it’s all is not enough, there is also a beautiful restaurant downstairs 😊. What else you can expect from a small hotel in Luxor?

Ahmed, his wife and the entire family made us feel at home, and treated us as family, they allowed us to experience the local Egyptian culture, we stayed for 6 days and enjoyed every minute, the entire family was very attentive to our needs and helped us with any questions we had. Ahmed made us a private tour package at a excellent price with a very knowledgeable tour guide. Ahmed wife cooked amazing, delicious meals for us, we ate better at magic place than any 5 star restaurants in our visit to Egypt. The property was very clean, very comfortable, the hot water and pressure was outstanding, linen very clean, well located in a typical Egyptian neighborhood, very safe and near all archeological sites. Ahmed thank you for allow us to be part of your family, we arrived as guess and departed as Family, we will definitely come back and stay at Magic place. We highly recommend Magic Place to everyone.

Within a walking distance from Luxor Temple, Bob Marley House Hostel is located in Luxor city centre. Featuring a Bob Marley theme, the hostel offers free Wi-Fi, a restaurant that serves breakfast buffet and horse riding lessons.

Mohammed, the man who takes care of the hostel has gone far beyond my expectations. When you have the opportunity to be welcomed in this hotel, or rather in a place that you could call you home, you would feel part of a big family where the focal point his him. Mohammed and his colleagues are always there to assist you when you need it, they help you out with tours and activities, provide insider tips how to behave to avoid unpleasant situations, and many more. Basically you are considered you are considered as guest at their place, rather than a client. Thank you for everything and I hope to see you soon again!!! Plus: they provide you with a full set of bedsheets (top and bottom)!!!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    I could recommend this hostel for everyone. It is quite cheap, clean, with breakfast included into price and decent rooftop for rest or talk with other travellers. My room has very nice, big bathroom. The owner and his brother were very helpful and were able to resolve every problem. It is possible to order lunch, prepared with Egyptian lady. I felt there perfectly safe and taken care of.
