Top El Kharga Hotel Reviews

Djorff Palace

10/10 Excellent

"This was my second visit to the Djorff Palace and it was every bit as good as the first. The hotel is in a beautiful location right on the Nile close to the valley of the kings. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable with an excellent air conditioning unit. Relaxing pool area with great sun beds set up daily with towels. Great breakfast and freshly cooked meals at lunchtime and dinner time, with daily changing menu. A huge bonus is the hotel’s own river boat that will take you across the Nile for free or down to the old town centre for a small charge and will then bring you back when your ready to return. Would highly recommend…."

Iberotel Luxor by JAZ

8/10 Good

"The room was very nice and the pool on the Nile was great! Super friendly staff. The only unfortunate thing is that the "City view" room was extremely loud, don't choose it! Luckily they let me change to a inner Courtyard room for no price difference. Also our air conditioner didn't work properly, maintenance had to come in to do a bunch of work to make it work. But great hotel in general, nice shops at the entry also."

Al Moudira Hotel

8/10 Good

"you have to come in with appropriate expectations. This is Egypt and it's Luxor. The pictures make this look very beautiful, and a lot of the resort is picturesque, but what you don't see is you get dropped off on a street and walk through a metal detector, there are A LOT of mosquitoes, and the rooms are tired. I mean, I walked in and could see from across the room that the mattress was shot, with huge depressions where people had been sleeping over the years, and my back hurt all week. The air conditioners worked but were super loud. The rooms are huge but pretty dilapidated, with weird bathrooms. The pool was really nice and the staff were very nice. Our guide warned us that many of his clients staying here had gotten 'food poisoning', and I did indeed get travelers diarrhea here. I cannot be sure where I got it but we only ate at the hotel and Im a doctor who is very germaphobic and Im an experienced traveler, I never touch tap water even for the toothbrush. I was the only one of my family who ate salad twice, so that is a possible source. I should know better than ordering a salad, but I thought it would be safe in the hotel. Totally my fault, but would ask the hotel to make sure they are not washing vegetables in tap water. The doctor on site was super nice and helpful and gave me cipro/flagyl which took care of it in a couple of days. We ended our stay early. I will not be coming back. Its probably nice by Luxor standards, just set your expectations appropriately."

The Temple Hotel Luxor

10/10 Excellent

"This place took me by surprise, as I had no idea it was so grand when I booked it through Hotels.com. Marble everywhere, huge hallways, three restaurants: - upscale French; casual Italian (delicious lasagna); and a bistro where breakfast is served. There’s also a cozy pub and an outdoor lounge on the roof-top, pool deck, where the chefs pick herbs from the gardens. The customer service throughout the hotel was excellent. I was upgraded to a king room with a balcony offering a lovely view over The Nile to the West Bank - including Hatshepsut’s Mortuary Temple - and I watched the sun go down over the pharaoh’s tombs. The room was spacious and well fitted out: the bed comfortable and the shower hot and strong. I ordered the American breakfast one morning and the most amazing amount of food arrived for the meagre sum of EGP250! Customer Service Manager, Esraa (formerly of the famous Winter Palace Hotel), is an Egyptian goddess who can and does make anything happen: like my very late checkout 🙏. I was instantly addicted to the welcome drink (a secret recipe) and she ensured that my cravings were sated! I had a luxurious three night stay and would happily return."
