still one of my favourite hotels ever after travelling to several other countries since. More

A haven of tranquillity marred only by the access road (mud track). Lovely rooftop restaurant with stunning views of the Nile and Luxor Temple on the other side. Freshly cooked traditional food, with occasional buffet lunches for passing groups in which we were invited to share (4 courses for LE45 (about a fiver!) Birgit and Salah (the German/Egyptian owners)could not... More

We stayed at the El Nakhil as it was recommended to us.

We enjoyed our stay here. The hotel is located down what seems like a hidden back alley. Once we arrived, we were very pleasantly surprise. Everything was impeccably clean and bright. Our room had a beautiful cove ceiling. We even had a small balcony, although, we preferred staying inside with the air conditioning on full. (While in Luxor, the daytime... More

We just come back from a 15 days trip in Egypt, 6 days stayed at El Nakhil, we still miss there! We like El Nakhil because it's real Egyptian touch : very frendly and charming El Nakhil is 3 or 4 minutes from the Public ferry by walk, it's at the end of the small street where you can find... More
