Jake Stick Posted Tuesday at 12:07 AM Posted Tuesday at 12:07 AM I’ll be in Egypt later this year and I’m wondering if anyone has recommendations for hotels in Aswan and Luxor? The Old Cataract and Winter Palace seem to have the best reviews, although both are quite expensive (especially the Old Cataract in Aswan). I’m guessing it’s better to stay on the mainland (East side of the Nile) in both places? Quote
Daniel Posted 13 hours ago Posted 13 hours ago For Luxor, I'd recommend the Iberotel Luxor. The staff is unobtrusive, the breakfasts are excellent, the pool is great, and everything is very clean and safe. Situated at the very beginning of the Corniche, it's very convenient for walking. McDonald's, Luxor Temple, and restaurants for every taste are nearby. All the action is right here. I had a room facing the road, it was a little noisy, but it didn't bother me at all. In Aswan, I stayed at the Hapi Hotel. Despite its popularity with Europeans, the facilities there are very-very average. I wouldn't go there again, although all the entertainment is close by. In both cities, it's better to stay on the eastern side; they're more lively and active. The western parts (including Elephantine Island) fall asleep in the evenings. khaolakguy 1 Quote
