Nile Panorama Hotel & Restaurant

I was a little nervous as we arrived as I'd heard mixed things about Luxor but Musa immediately put our minds at rest! The food was delicious, varied and well priced, the rooftop pool is beautiful and really does have a panorama view, but mostly wanted to say thank you for helping us with our itinerary, providing a driver for the whole (packed) trip as well as a felucca ride, and generally taking great care of us so that our friend Ahmad could relax from tour guide duties. He says he will definitely be back as this is a great place to use as a base for your first time in Luxor. I wish I could go back too!

The staff is 100% what makes this stay special. They are so nice and welcoming, making sure you have everything you need, taking the time to tell you more about the west bank, the surroundings. You really have an amazing view from the rooftop and it’s where we have spent most of our time, especially with the pool table and pool of course. We loved being surrounded by banana trees. The food is great too with generous portions. It’s made from scratch, on the spot. I took the eggplant tajine and it was so good.

You’re more in the village, less touristy area, so a bit more raw (which we appreciated but might not be for people looking for high-end boutique hotel)

Not all taxi-drivers are happy with the bumpy ride to Nile Panorama but the Hotel is fantastic. Has an incredible view over the Nile from the west bank from a terrace with swimming pool and a restaurant where the local food is fantastic. A special thanks to our host who went to great lengths to make us feel welcome and to arrange things for a pleasant stay in Luxor.

The staff went out of their way to make our stay exceptional in all respects.

The location was difficult for our driver to find.
