Steigenberger Nile Palace

This is a beutiful hotel that should not be confused with the Seigenberger Cairo Pyramid hotel. The Pyramid hotel has seen better days and has not been kept to the same high standards as the Nile Palace. This hotel has a beautiful setting and professional staff. The breakfast buffet offers many choices and a wonderful fresh cooked egg station. The amenities offered by the hotel are top notch. I wish we had stayed more than one day at this hotel. If you visit Luxor make sure you spend more than a day in this city.

I had an absolutely amazing experience here and would highly recommend this place to anyone. The service was outstanding, especially the bartender, Ahmed, who was incredibly attentive, professional, and clearly knows what he’s doing. He made us feel very welcome from the moment we arrived. The cocktails were not only delicious but also beautifully presented, truly perfect. The staff overall was very friendly and accommodating. The location itself is lovely, with great seating options both indoors and outdoors. Everything was very clean, and the atmosphere was simply fantastic. I would definitely come back.

Thanks to Omar and Ahmed for a charming night in the bar. Wonderful staff, utterly charming. Their manager should be proud of such excellent staff. We will be back

We were here for a night and were upgraded to a full Nile view from the partial Nile view we had booked. The check-in staff were very helpful and friendly. The room we got was large but as it was on the ground floor it overlooked the pool more than the Nile. It was quite noisy as well, as there were people walking around in the pool area. The beds were comfortable and the room had all expected amenities. The toiletries were fine and the shower was good. It would have been good to have a shower curtain as the bathroom got quite wet after the shower. The breakfast was good and staff were friendly and helpful. One negative was that the bowl marked “nuts” was empty and though the chef said he was getting some, we were informed 20 minutes later that there was none!

I stayed at Steigenberger Nile Palace for three nights as part of a tour of Egypt. The hotel is ideally situated in the heart of Luxor, making it a convenient base for exploring the area. It offers a wide choice of restaurants, serving Lebanese, Italian, Thai, and international cuisine, providing plenty of variety for different tastes. The reception staff were friendly and welcoming, and the check-in process was smooth and efficient, creating a positive first impression on arrival. The room was modern, clean, and well presented. It included a mini fridge and tea/coffee-making facilities, providing everything needed for a comfortable stay. The air conditioning worked effectively, as did the Wi-Fi, ensuring a pleasant and convenient experience throughout. The bathroom was spacious and well maintained, featuring a lovely walk-in shower and all the amenities you would expect. I dined at all three restaurants during my three-night stay. The Italian restaurant stood out as particularly good, while the Lebanese and Thai options were average in comparison. Prices were slightly higher than at other hotels I stayed at in Egypt, although the overall experience was still enjoyable. The waiting staff across all three restaurants were consistently attentive and provided very good service. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay, with highlights including the comfortable room, excellent service, and good dining options. I would definitely recommend this hotel to others.

I had a great time in the bar and the beautiful terrace. Ahmed made a great cocktail and also a medicine with ginger to help with my cold.

On arrival at the Steigenberger, we received a warm and friendly welcome from all the staff. We were upgraded to a wonderful Nile view room complete with complimentary cakes, chocolates and fruit. Breakfast, taken outside on the terrace, was excellent and served by very well trained, smiling staff. We tried both the Thai Restaurant and the Lebanese El Tarboush Resturant - both were superb. In short, we spent two nights but wished it could have been longer. We have been lucky enough to stay at the Sonesta St George, the Pavillon Winter and the Steigenberger Nile Palace all in Luxor. Don't hesitate to book the Steigenberger, it's the best!

When you enter the hotel it looks quite lovely. But to access rooms, restaurants, etc you walk through a kind of courtyard into another building that blasts loud music all day and night. So having a drink at the bar or eating there isn’t that pleasant. By contrast, we went to The Winter Palace for cocktails and it was really quiet and beautiful. Although everyone is nice, no one followed through with requests for things like dinner reservations and the like. I felt like we spent a lot of time just trying to make simple arrangements. Shout out to the travel company there who got things done. The breakfast was ample and fresh, but we opted for room service, which was always delivered by the same wonderful man who put a smile on our faces. Food and coffee were delicious and loved enjoying them on our balcony overlooking the Nile. Overall, it was an okay stay. Happy for that view, so would definitely suggest upgrading for that. Would probably stay elsewhere if we returned to Luxor.

Very pleasant stay overall. The service was consistently good, and the staff were welcoming and helpful. I especially appreciated the fresh juice each morning, and the shisha was well prepared and enjoyable in the evenings. A great choice for a comfortable and relaxing stay.

The massages at the Spa were outstanding. Wafaa and Arwa were our massage therapists and they were great. Feeling much better! BTW The hotel is beautiful...on the west bank of the Nile.

We came here for your a drink and food after a day at the valley of the kings and Ahmed and his colleague were lovely at the back bar! They gave us a number of cute animal shaped fruit surprises (and even gave my boyfriend the flower carved strawberry to give to me which got him brownie points) they were really welcoming and friendly! Would recommend to stay or come for a quick stop :) from England!

We arrived at the riverside bar Layali Zaman just as the staff were breaking their fast, and instead of focusing on themselves, they welcomed us with incredible warmth. They invited us to sit, share dates, and listen to the mosques as the call to prayer echoed along the river. Aziz and Omar showed such genuine kindness and generosity, it was one of the most memorable moments of our trip.

Amazing service, from Honey and Amed, beautiful juices. Fantastic carving of the friut these guys are the best.

Excellent service, would highly recommend a stay here at Steigenberger Nile Palace. The restaurants are excellent quality and the bar outside is amazing! The staff are friendly and make you feel welcomed. Wonderful people, wonderful place😊.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Steigenberger Nile Palace. Every part of our day was great. We enjoyed our room as well as all of the dining that we did at the hotel. To start, the breakfast was amazing and very extensive. It reminded me of being in Las Vegas, as the buffet was so big. The staff at breakfast was beyond accommodating. Yasmine making the eggs and omelettes as well as our waiter Mohamed Salah were spectacular. We also enjoyed both the Lebanese and the Italian restaurants. They were both very good and the service was excellent. I would highly recommend staying at this hotel as it has absolutely everything that you need. It is a great resort.

This is our 3rd stay here and it has become our 2nd home. The Hotel is beautiful and all the staff are so friendly and helpful, nothing is too much for anyone and they go the extra mile, even bringing a pillow to my sunbed because my back was hurting. Mustafa the night Manager arranged a surprise birthday cake for me delivered to my room and then later in the day Omar the General manager arranged another birthday cake and for the evening entertainment to sing me happy Birthday. Ahmed from the outside Juice bar was always happy to have a chat and make what ever juice you wanted or he felt you needed for health. And both Ahmeds from the pool were always happy to help from moving the umbrellas to arranging other things for us. Sallah the concierge was also amazing and could not do enough for us. We will miss everyone until our next visit. It is like leaving family behind when we leave.

Perfect for our overnight stay before a river cruise leaving the next day. It is a first class hotel in every respect. The breakfast provided was an outstanding buffet selection but still offering supportive table service. We did however leave the next day minus some clothing articles having left them in our room. We didn't realize anything missing for a few days when we contacted the hotel who confirmed that the items had indeed been found. Many thanks to Nardin who packaged them up and sent them to our home in Canada. Very much appreciated the extra effort.

Great juices from Ahmed! Amazing service at the terrace !

Excellent service from Ahmed, very attentive, amazing attention to detail. Fabulous hotel, would 100% recommend.

We stopped at the hotel for a drink before dinner. Ahmed was working in the Lounge bar and he made our visit special. He was so attentive and super friendly. A genuinely nice guy and the best bar man. He even put the football on for my husband. I would 100% recommend visiting.

Fabulous hotel staff excellent highly recommend- central location perfect for tourist. A must stay in Luxor/ recommend a view of the Nile for perfect sunsets view

We stayed for 2N. We booked half-board side Nile view via their own HRewards site. Pre-checkin Experience: 0/5 Check-in Experience: 0/5 Room : 5/5 Hospitality: 1/5 Half-board and breakfast : 2/5 View : 5/5 Pre-checkin Experience: 0/5. No response to emails. No communication whatsoever. We raised customer support request, again no response. They didn't even ask about check-in time, we were on the edge till we reach the hotel, worried about room availability. Check-in Experience: 0/5. Equally disastrous. They didn't accept credit card asking us to pay via cash ( USD or EURO) or via a link which was not mentioned anywhere. Room : 5/5. We booked Side nile view and we got a great room , spacious, enough sockets to charge, good side Nile view and we really liked it. Comfortable mattress too. Hospitality: 1/5. We expected Egyptian hospitality but we received European hospitality - curt and indifferent. Right from the reception staff to the staff in the breakfast/ dinner area. It's the same. Nobody smiles at the hotel. Before this, we stayed in Movenpick Aswan and Marriott in Cairo Zamalek, Steigenberger need to learn a thing or two from Marriott Half-board and breakfast : 2/5. Very average breakfast, nothing special. The Egg chef is very good though. Half-board is a scam. Hardly any items in the dinner, very limited. They have NO LABELS anywhere in the food section - be it breakfast or dinner. Guess they are waiting for someone to get health issues or serious life threatening allergy for them to start labeling. They don't care about people's dietary restrictions. Definitely not a 5 star hotel behaviour. View : 5/5. Nile view was great, nothing much in the night, we walked around the property in the night to get Nile view. Not worth the 280$ per night price tag we paid. Definitely doesn't feel 5-star.

Entering the main open air area was very nice. Unfortunately, we learned a few things after 3 nights stay. Outside food is not allowed in. They have a bag scanner at the entrance and if you bring take away food, they force you to sit OUTSIDE and finish the food before coming in. Every night there is some performance from 7.30-9.00pm whilst we were there. Though others may appreciate it, we didn’t cos we sleep by 8pm+ because of jet lag. And we couldn’t get a room facing the nile, our window was facing right where the stage was :( Pool is great. The breakfast area is huge, and you can sit outside facing the Nile river, although the tables are not very clean and has dust/ sand on it. You walk right down is a staircase where you can be picked up by boat for your tours! 3 restaurants to choose from- Italian, Lebanese and Thai. I suggest the Lebanese. Being Asian the Thai restaurant was not great and wayyy overpriced. Rooms a bit dated. And the sink in the bathroom was clogged. Also the shower door couldn’t close properly, so all the water was being soaked by the floor mat

Wonderful stay at the hôtel. A great thank to Nardin at the front desk who perfectly organized our stay. She also perfectly fulfilled our wishes, such as experiencing a feluqa tour.

Hassan Mohamed Hassan in the Nubia Restaurant was incredibly hospitable and helpful . He couldn’t do enough to ensure our dining experience was excellent . Fantastic smiley disposition and always made us feel welcome

We stopped by for ice cream to end the night and watch the live music. Ahmed was very nice, made sure we had a special night and felt welcomed. Definitely stop by!

We had a lovely couple of days in Luxor. This hotel is amazing very clean and welcoming. There are a number of restaurants to choose from and the food is delicious. A huge thank you to the lovely Ahmed the waiter in the bar. He is so helpful and friendly. He made roses for us from strawberries and a sun from lemons. We highly recommend this hotel.

This hotel is very special and means a lot to both myself and my husband . We have stayed there many times and it just keeps getting better. The staff are very special, kind and genuinely caring especially Chef Ali, Nadine ( guest relations) and Ahmed Magjy in reception , who looked after us after our flight was cancelled and gave us a very special room for the night . Thankyou to all of you . The three Ahmed’s and Montasser at the pool are like our family and every morning we would get to the pool and our sun beds were ready . Now about the food , it was amazing!!! Breakfast was very special , everything you could think of. I loved an omelette and Yasmine cooked it to perfection every morning, she was a special lady .All the restaurant staff worked very hard and we thank them . Wherever we ate , it was delicious and there was plenty of choice . Italian , Lebanese , Asian and Egyptian down below the pool and music also . The room cleaners were exceptional, and did an excellent job and the bar staff enjoyed chatting and making us laugh. They all work very long hours and we appreciate that . One last Thankyou must go to the manager Mr Moshiee, you are doing an amazing job, this is a truly wonderful hotel and it shows the staff work hard for you because you are a good boss . David + Linda Martindale

Really nice hotel. Rooms are good, some of which face the nile, some of which face the colorful (with flowers) courtyard. Pool is very relaxing. Multiple resteraunts; prices are higher than in town, but not completely out of place in a resort. Great breakfast buffet. Three different bar areas (indoors and outdoors). Staff is incredibly helpful, going out of their way to make your stay pleasant (thanks Ahmed!!) Nile is right next to the hotel. With seats/balconies overlooking it. Overall a really pleasant place to stay after a long day sightseeing!

Very well centrally located, close to everything. Clean, modern rooms. Good pool and good restaurants. The vast majority of staff speak English. Highly recommended.

My wife and I had a wonderful stay at Steigenberger Nile Palace! Our stay was extra fun and memorable thanks to Nubi, the greatest hotel attendant ever! We exchanged Arabic and Japanese phrases with each other and had a fun time learning about each others’ cultures. His positive energy always made coming back to the hotel a real joy. If you are lucky enough to meet Nubi during your stay, be sure to ask him to teach you Arabic. Thank you, habibi!

Huge rooms and huge beds with nice balcony that overlooks the Nile. I stayed here one night post cruise so we could visit Saqqara - enjoyed the pool and the thai restaurant. Had a bad experience at the italian restaurant due to an extremely rude manager who refused to seat us even though only two of the tables were occupied. Otherwise enjoyed my stay. Don't walk much outside - the hassle isn't worth it.

Great place to stay in Luxor. Every single staff member made us feel at home. We were looked after from beginning to end - As two women travelling alone we really appreciated the care that the concierge and doormen took to make sure our taxis were safe, for example. Everyone was welcoming and friendly. We had a courtyard view and I would recommend this for the peace and quiet. Sitting outside by the Nile in the early morning with a coffee, watching the balloons on the West Bank - bliss! Or the sun setting while feluccas sail by - what a view! Room was good, USB plug by the bed and two prong plug sockets. Pool was warm (February) and nice for mid-day rest after a morning of sightseeing Breakfast buffet has a good range and we tried the evening buffet once as well and it was worth the price. Nothing extraordinary but a good range of everything you would expect and very peaceful to eat outside with a view of the Nile. The staff are what moves this from very good to excellent - thank you to everyone for making our holiday so special

Let’s make clear this is at best a 4 -star hotel according to global standards. On top Of it, this is an old and super used hotel, with a low level of technology and a huge number of rotating guests. Good for mass tourists, much less for business purposes. However: the personnel is kind and professional, the restaurants are ok ( too expensive for Egypt) and the rooms ( especially those with the view on the Nile) are nice, comfortable, average clean and the view makes you feel In peace with life. Bathroom are getting old and deserve some renovation, still everything works fine. The price, as always in Egypt for hotels, is far too high.

Amazing experience, Ahmed was amazing at the bar! We loved it here very good service. The hotel was lovely and the view was very nice.

Very nice hotel, the only drawback being that the rooms with a view of the city are very noisy. We asked the door man Noby for some information and he was so kind and helpful. He was truly exceptional, we thank him again for his help.

My friend Ahmed, was very nice and sweet. Thank you Ahmed🫶🫶

Gorgeous hotel. The restaurants have lovely food. The staff bend over backwards to help you. Even walking with me to use an atm as there is no bank or atm in the hotel itself. The courtyard has live music each night.

Ahmed is perfect for the service.

I have been coming to Steigenberger Nile Palace regularly for about 17 months, almost every time I am in Luxor, mainly for meals. Sadly, over the past few months the food standards and consistency have clearly gone down, both at the Lebanese and the Italian restaurants. At this point, I honestly can’t remember the last time I had a meal here without something to complain about. This is disappointing, because this hotel used to be much more reliable. Now the experience feels inconsistent and careless, not just once, but repeatedly. Unfortunately, until the Four Seasons opens in Luxor, this remains one of the few decent dining options in the city — which makes the decline in quality even harder to accept. With such limited competition, the standards should be better, not worse. I hope management takes this seriously, because the potential is there, but the current food quality does not match what this hotel should stand for.

To hotel top management .. thank you for the continuous professional vision in managing the place .. in 3 days I could the loyalty of all staff .. everyone is thrilled to help before even asking. They make you feel that they are you and know your possible needs or requests . Most important the staff is empathetic. The hotel has a friendly environment. The food is very good. The security is clear and prompt. Maybe you need to put more emphasis on gardening and flowering making it more rich and vivid.

Outstanding hotel & staff. The Nile view is more than perfect All meals were delicious also breakfast was marvelous The staff were very friendly (Mr Moshier, Sara at reservation is very helpful

This hotel is truly magnificent. It has a wonderful decor along with a fantastic Nile view. The breakfast is stunning with a large range of food from chia seeds, nuts and yogurt to lovely spicy Jalapeños and cheeses, make sure to venture outside where you can have Turkish coffee and wonderful home made Egyptian bread made at the scene. The pool area is great, and the towel guys are very helpful. We went at the end of January beginning of February, which to them is winter, but being from the UK the weather was perfect. It was my birthday when we were there and without even telling the hotel they decorated my bed and sent me a birthday cake, this was a wonderful gesture which I was truly humbled by - thank you. The drinks and food are on a higher price range but the surroundings did make it worth it, you can venture across the road for cheaper beers and food but beware of the street vendors, taxis and horse men. We had a meal at the Thai restaurant which is inside the hotel and it was fabulous. All in all, it was a wonderful experience which I thought was very reasonable.

We stayed in this hotel because of its location as it is good for both the east and west banks. The hotel turned out to be a great find. Very helpful and nice staff. Great pool and Gum both of which o used. We ate at theee of the restaurants and they were all top quality and great service. would definitely recommend

Thank you for the wonderful experience. We spent great time.Hotel location is superb, Room was great, food was tasty.Special Thanks to Nardine (guest relation) for her effort.

Amazing hotel, great service, room perfect, food good, overall a great stay. We booked a Nile view room, had a lovely balcony and was perfect to wake up to a view of the Nile and have coffee on the balcony while watching the balloons rise across the river. Highly recommend the upgrade. Pool area was lovely, well maintained, and looked after well by the staff from the bar. Service in the restaurant was brilliant, especially Mahood and round the pool area, Ahmed, both looked after us really well. Some general tips for Luxor as a whole :- Tips…you eventually get used to everyone expecting a tip, don’t be afraid to ignore them, keep small notes (100 or less for this) Taxis…don’t bother with their Apps, they don’t work. Agree a price before you get in, we were lucky that our first driver gave us his mobile number and we used him exclusively for the two weeks we were there, he was probably a bit more pricey but worth it, messaged him and he was there to pick us up 90% of the time within 10/15 mins. Any trips you go on (boat rides, horse and carriage) be aware that they will quote a price and then give you a hard time when you get off to double it…stick to your guns and pay them what they agreed. If you are unfortunate enough to get Egyptian Tummy (or Pharoes Revenge) go to the pharmacist and get some Antinal, the usual stuff doesn’t work. Overall Luxor is lovely, we struggled to find anywhere to eat other than the hotel, if you go across the river by boat there are some restaurants but we didn’t bother.

​I can say without a doubt that this is a definitive 5-star hotel. From the service to the amenities, everything was exceptional. ​The Highlights ​Value for Money: I found an incredible deal on Agoda. This was easily the best 5-star experience I’ve had at such a reasonable price point. ​The Food: Do yourself a favor and book the breakfast inclusive rate. The variety is massive, and the quality is top-tier. Even the welcome drink upon arrival was a lovely, high-quality touch. ​Room & Service: I was lucky enough to receive an early check-in and a room upgrade at no extra charge. The views of the Nile were stunning, and the entire staff treated us with genuine care. ​Going Above and Beyond (Lost & Found) ​The true test of a hotel is how they handle problems. I accidentally left an item behind and traveled to a different city. The reception team handled it perfectly. They secured the item in "Lost and Found" and coordinated the logistics to get it back to me in another city. ​Special Thanks: I want to give a sincere thank you to Ms. Nardin. She was incredibly professional, answered my calls immediately, and followed up via WhatsApp to ensure everything was resolved quickly. ​ Quick Tips for Other Travelers: ​Check Agoda for the best rates. ​The Welcome Drink is a great way to start, don't miss it! ​If you have any issues, the staff is highly responsive via phone and messaging.

I'm thankful for the people I met during my staying. Mr.Nasser the front office manager is a person who cares about every detail and a professional and cares about the guests and their experiences. Although I had some difficulties during my trip , The hotel team was helpful. and a special thanks to Miss Nardine . And that's a reason to stay there again, because "THEY CARE" . - My food experience was great - The bed is comfy - There's an option to book a Nile tour inside the hotel which I did and was great. - The bartender is friendly - there's jazz playing live every evening and I wish If I enjoyed it more - The door security was taking care of our safety as well. - I enjoyed being in international environment - It's an excellent place for conferences - very clean hotel always 24/7 and with all the languages I speak , спасибо 🇷🇺 Thank you 🇬🇧 شكرا.🇪🇬

This is a beautiful hotel with lots of beautiful cultural experiences. Food is amazing and staff are very kind and polite. Ahmed makes an amazing coffee

Had a 10 day trip over New Year.my wife and I had a fabulous time particularly for the New Years celebrations.The food .entertainment and organisation was brilliant .Weather was a bonus as sunny and warm every day so a great winter holiday.

Great food, drinks with very helpful and lovely staff. Ahmed and Marina in the bar were very helpful

Beautiful, clean hotel. Large size room. Exceptional staff who are always friendly and go above and beyond to help. Beautiful location. Several restaurants with good food and multiple vegan and vegetarian options. Definitely recommend!

Great experience and staff Ahmed was great. The lady at the croissant station made amazing pastries and the breakfast had an excellent view

Superb hotel in a superb location. The three a la carte restaurants are excellent (Thai, Italian and Middle Eastern) and if you book on a half board basis you get 20% discount (the buffet restaurant is included in the price), also twice a week the buffet restaurant closed and we could use the a la carte restaurants included (with a smaller menu). Can't fault breakfast, omelette station, fresh Egyptian bread, a huge block of honeycomb for your yogurt and lots of other choice. There's quite a variation in rooms, ours was very dated but some are modernised (I believe it's the Nile View rooms). The room was not spotless but it was perfectly clean were it mattered, bedding, bathroom, loo, etc, again I don't know how much of this was down to just being a very old room. The staff are wonderful, shout our to Hady and Mahmood in the bar, the cocktails were excellent and they will make them to your taste. Every member of staff we met was so lovely, another shout out to the lady in the spa who's name I sadly didn't get but what a beautiful smile! The spa is great, you get to book a private slot in the steam, sauna and jacuzzi, so you are not sharing with anyone else and the massages we both had were excellent! Snack bar by the pool served great food, the pool overlooks the Nile and the outside deck is the perfect spot to watch the balloons early morning or a cocktail watching the sunset in the evening. Taxis are right outside the door (and dirt cheap). We will definitely be back to this hotel.

I enjoyed the breakfast with view on the Nile, amazing juices, turkish coffee, egyptian bread, and great Feteer. Great skills and really good people.

Beautiful hotel, right on the nile. Their dinner and breakfast buffet are both excellent. Not for Indian taste, but lot of variety to make some choices. The view of nile and the view from the lounge is too beautiful. U spend hours staring. There are rooms with nile view, however we didn't get a room with a view. Wish we had more time to laze around. If u are doing luxor yourself, you can keep 2 nights here as there are so many places to do in luxor.

Ahmed was great he opened the hookah bar early just for us because we had leave at 4pm. The watermelon mint hookah was smooth and sitting by the Nile was a bonus!

Highly recommend this hotel in Luxor. It is very high quality, the staff are very friendly but professional, nothing is too much trouble. The hotel and rooms are very clean and we felt confident eating and drinking here. The food at breakfast was excellent and such a huge variety. We ate in the bars, two restaurants and had room service, all very good. There is bottled water in the room daily. The public areas are calm and spacious and the pool, breakfast restaurant and rear bar have views across the Nile. Some things we found: We used taxis to get to Luxor temple and the museum , both are very close, and the hotel staff at the door will sort these for you and stop the touts on the street from grabbing your custom. The hotel would arrange bigger, air conditioned cars for further afield, like the airport for a surprisingly good price . They had a tour desk that would arrange trips and guides if you wanted. We had ours in place where needed, but they suggested we go to Karnak by boat, which gave us a taste of being on the river. They arranged it and the boat picked us up at the hotel dock. This was a great way to travel. If your budget allows, book a room that faces the river. We had a side on view, which was enough and cheaper than the full river view suites.

We had a wonderful time as a family, with excellent service throughout our stay, and the pool was a true highlight that everyone genuinely enjoyed.

Excellent service Quick and easy check in/out Easy with tour guide, very convenient location Nice venues and clean rooms. Great atmosphere with minimal noise from the street.

Amazing hotel, clean and tidy. Very helpful staff. Great view of the Nile, and beautiful sunset to watch from the bar! Plenty of choice for breakfast.

I had an amazing experience. The hotel facilities are in great shape. The staff are professional, courteous and serve with excellence and a smile. The food is incredible. I wish I stayed longer.

What an amazing stay we had! Our Superstar Ibrahim ensured that we had quality serivce, great rooms and unmatched atmosphere. The Lebanese resturant took the food award. And Nascor Tour provide a great Sunset Felucca experience for our group. All the staff were meticulous - but a special thanks to Ibrahim at the reception desk.

This was the second time I had booked this hotel. The hotel offers several restaurants to cater for all tastes. We booked an exceedingly early trip to the Valley of the Kings, and the hotel kindly accommodated us with four exceptional breakfast boxes. When we checked in the hotel informed us that they had allocated our rooms next door to each other' we were extremely impressed with the service. We had one issue with a member of staff at the hotel reception; his name was Omar. He was very unhelpful, rude and dismissive. We were all extremely disappointed with his lack of help and unwillingness to assist with our enquiries. The rooms are modern and very spacious. The hotel is located not too fare from the Souks, however I would recommend booking a Nile view room; we were all kept awake every night because of the traffic and street noise. The Egyptian drivers constantly "beep" their car horns!!! The pool is by far the best, compared with all other hotels in the area. The pool bar service is extremely slow, and the staff struggled to understand English - it was quite tiring. Apart from the sloppy and unhelpful service from Omar the hotel is good and I would certainly recommend.

Very beautiful hotel with an airy grand courtyard and large pool area that overlooks the Nile (heated pools too). The rooms are well appointed and everything feels upscale. The Thai restaurant served up some of the best Thai dishes we've had anywhere. Very nice experience.

Stayed at the Steigenberger Nile Palace between 10th / 17th December. Booked directly with Steigenberger Nile Palace reservations team. The Steigenberger Nile Palace offers a quintessential stay in Luxor city centre. Very central. We had restful night's sleep in our spacious suite which featured sliding patio doors with a view of the courtyard. There you could see the entertainment. Our room had 2 kingsize beds and additional amenities. Tea & Coffee making facilities available in the room. Bathroom toiletries replaced daily when housekeeping cleaned. Booked The Steigenberger Nile Palace for our Egyptian Holiday with friends which was their first trip to Luxor.They will be back. This is our 4th time at this hotel, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, and it is always welcoming and the rooms are a good size and clean. The location is central to all tourist attractions also ideal for nights out in The King’s Head across the road . Hotel Staff were all very exceptional very helpful nothing was too much trouble, all staff went beyond and above. When our friend fell ill the kitchen staff supplied him honey & lemon to drink to ease a cough. Friendly & helpful staff, especially: Abdullah - If I’ve remembered his name correctly ( see photographs) he was an exceptional waiter. We saw him everyday for breakfast and evening meal. Very smart appearance, with very good manners. His English was better than my Arabic 🙂. He took our orders accurately, delivering food promptly and refilled our Tea & Coffee many times, he knew / remembered my friend liked the chocolate cookies 🍪 and there they were on the table each morning. It was sad saying farewell to him. Ali at the poolside bar and restaurant was Friendly & Engaging Making us feel welcome with interesting conversation. Not forgetting the excellent poolside service, attentive staff who bring clean towels to your sun lounger’s and keeping the pool area spotless ,making us feel really pampered. We will be back soon .. Thank You Team Steigenberger Nile Palace, excellent teamwork! Fantastic Egyptian experience.

This hotel is very convenient to see all the attractions in Luxor . Rooms are spacious and very neat and clean . The staffs are very friendly and all three Resturants we tried have very tasty food . Meram specially was very kind and polite and always ready to help . We will recommend this place to any one who wants to have a nice and relaxing holiday . We will definitely use again whenever we visit Luxor

Great experience, highly recommend to anyone who wants to enjoy luxury travel. Thanks for service and hospitality. Many thanks to Ola for taking care of my family .

First rate hotel. Generously sized room with balcony overlooking the river. Staff throughout the hotel were most helpful. A few small tips were met with delight! The riverside location is brilliant. TIP Don't breakfast indoors - instead go down to the tables at the river's edge. More of a walk to get food but well worth it! The Lebanese restaurant in the Steigenberger was excellent. Good authentic fresh food, served with a smile! Food better than two meals which we took outside at the Winter Palace. (TIP Winter Palace Red Royal Bar and gardens well worth a visit for a cocktail and a stroll) There is a lot of construction going on outside the hotel, but this didn't interfere with our enjoyment. We took taxis into the town centre - all very cheap. Highly recommended hotel

Well located and top quality hotel, right on the river (something you don't get with the Winter Palace). The location and gym swung our vote to choosing this hotel. In-house restaurants all good quality and fair value. We stayed for one week as the base for trips around and about Luxor. Recommended...make sure to get a river-facing room, partial or full view.

From the rooms to the restaurants available and the ambience , location and staff it is fantastic. After a busy day in Luxor the perfect place to come “home” to..

Ahmed very friendly and helpful! Thanks for the service! Truly appreciate it! Luxor is getting colder in December! Take care!

Some excellent local coffee brewed by Ahmed at Steigenberger Luxor, Egypt - need acquired taste for this… am loving it !!!

The location of the hotel was amazing with a view of the River Nile. The room was clean. The atmosphere was quite good. We didn't pay for the hotel. The noise level was not that bad. The staff were quite friendly. The amenities we didn't use.

Beautiful hotel and friendly staff. The staff went above and beyond for my husbands birthday. .The views are beautiful and the food is delicious. The only bad thing is, the men who run the stores in the down stairs area of the hotel are aggressive and try real hard to rip you off. I assume they are not staffed by the hotel because they act completely different then all the actual friendly staff. Use caution with them! They will wait by the buffet area to try and get you to come into there stores and make you feel uncomfortable and don't take no easily.

Sadly, we only have one more day of our week here at this truly wonderful hotel. Whilst it is a little further along the river than some for the Karnak & Luxor temples (1 hr walk or short taxi) this means it has been built on the River Nile side, so you can literally touch the water from one of the many bars and restaurants, and watch the sailboats at breakfast. It has a lot of space, food options but most of all the staff go out of their way to make you feel at home and valued. Tim PIERCY

Ahmed is amazing bartender at the bar on the second floor. He was especially good at making me a chocolate shake which is now my favorite.

The Steigenberger Nile Palace is the ultimate oasis in Luxor. Aside from its delightfully cool and elegant interior and stylishly curated restaurants and shopping experiences it is the staff who truly breathe life and beauty into this wonderful establishment. After a day of visiting the bustling Valley of the Kings or the teeming Temple of Karnak you can truly unwind and remember the best of your day. Here you can feel calm and relaxed and know that you are well looked after by kind and helpful staff. They also do not hesitate to go above the call of duty. During our stay I unexpectedly needed to physically sign some contacts. No problem, said Abdallah, one of the reception team, and he printed off the entire contract for me at no cost, which I had offered to pay for. If you have visited Luxor before you will understand how rare and refreshing this is!

Fabulous hotel, with friendly and efficient staff. Room was lovely, large and clean. Great pool with Nile view. Several restaurants to choose from, we ate in them all.... lots of choice. Ady, ground floor bar is a great character, makes you feel very welcome and at home. I highly recommend.

This is a great hotel. Our group upgraded to Nile view rooms and it was well worth it. The view is spectacular and one of those memories of the Nile that stays with one for years. The room itself was large, comfortable and clean. While we only stayed one night we could see ourselves coming back just for the location of the hotel (and its restaurants). The breakfast buffet is large and has the usual array of hot and cold items - with enough variety to keep even the seasoned traveler happy. The Italian and Lebanese restaurants were amazing. And the experienced and helpful staff were happy to allow us to sit in the Italian side and order off the Lebanese menu - something that allowed us to satisfy all the palettes in our group.

Luxor is an incredible place but can be all day surround sound visual attack on the senses with intellectual overload. This hotel is the perfect place to come back to each day to recover and recharge. A superb property, excellent service, great pool deck from which to watch the sun set over the nile.

The Steigenberger Nile palace is a superb hotel. Perfect location at the side of the river. We upgraded to a Nile view room so if your budget allows I can recommend doing so. I will always remember laying in bed looking out of my window and watching the balloons float by in the sky (24 one morning) The hotel is spotlessly clean and the food in 3 restaurants is very good. We have been here many many times in fact this is the second time this year. The staff can not do enough to make your stay perfect … I should like to thank Svetlana for the bowl of fruit, Mohamed (drinks and beverage manager) for all his help… Sala who always greets us with a lovely smile … Hade who always had our 2 Sakaras waiting in an ice bucket and Mohamed too… the guys by the pool always had our towels ready on our sunbeds… Ahmed and Ahmed … every thing has been fantastic I have only dropped a star as the pool was cold but we were told yesterday the heating is now on but we go home in 3 days … fingers crossed it’s a little warmer before we go… We are already looking forward to coming back xx 😘

Just about to go to the airport to return home but not before a last beer served by two great guys Ahmed and Mohammed who have been looking after me during my stay at the hotel. A relaxing afternoon at the Cafe des délices. There are several restaurants and cafes here very relaxed atmosphere, the waiters let you rest and check in now and again in case you need a top-up. Great location, recommended. Brian.

Excellent and very friendly service with great view with Nile River and West Bank. Highly recommended to add breakfast !

We visited the Steigenberger Nile Palace in April .. we have stayed here many times in the past 15 years (even before it was a Steigenberger hotel). When we visited in April we did see changes as we had not visited Luxor for several years due to Covid restrictions and the fact that there were no direct flights from Manchester ( there are now) … We noticed that the hotel had been upgraded in parts but not others… Firstly I can not fault the staff in anyway they are superb and can’t do enough to help … and the place is spotless .. but in the space of 2 days the prices for food and drink have increased on average by 35 per cent at least (for example the local beer sakara went up overnight from 4gbp to 5.70gbp) … the pool has always been heated no matter what time of year … bring your thermals as it’s not on at all and freezing … I actually think that once the new hotel that is under construction nearby is open the hotel will struggle. Unfortunately I don’t think we will be visiting the Nile palace again … several people we met in April actually said that to us then …. It’s sad but true … the world is a big place and we can keep good memories of our time in the Nile Palace from the past …

Five star service. Best of any hotel I’ve ever stayed at. Enjoyed dinner twice at Thai Restaurant. Excellent food and service. Had breakfast at the Nubia Breakfast each day. Outstanding service from Abdallah, Ahmad and Selvia. Ahmad absolutely made my day, getting me peaches. (breakfast had the first day, and not the next, but he brought them to me. And I can’t say enough things about my awesome friends, Mohammed and Mohammed at the concierge desk. Fabulous service and fun personalities. So nice and helpful. Loved staying at this hotel. Only negative: Totally enjoyed pool area, but wish they could have fans in this area because the flies are out of control. But this is a problem all over Egypt.

Our stay at this particular hotel was amazing. The place itself was very impressive, with a stunning view of the Nile. The staff were also extremely polite. Especially noteworthy were Ahmed, who helped me a lot during a difficult situation, making me feel comfortable instead of embarrassed, and Abdallah, who took excellent care of us every morning at the breakfast buffet.

Really enjoyed my stay here - the staff and facilities are excellent. Amazing breakfast and Thai restaurant. Ahmed served me fresh juice in the morning then again in the bar for a nice snack later in the day and he was extremely kind and hospitable. I also received really super nice service in the art gallery downstairs in the bazaar area where they have a nice selection of no hassle shops with fair prices. The gallery owner was extremely helpful and they had really interesting pieces. Treat yourself to a Nile river view room; 100% worth it.

We had a fantastic stay at Steigenberger Nile Palace. The hotel is right on the Nile with stunning sunset views. Rooms are clean, spacious, and very comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful, making us feel very welcome. Breakfast was excellent with a great variety. Perfect location near Luxor Temple. Highly recommended!

Only stayed one night but we had a fantastic experience. We arrived very early but they were already trying to get our room ready. Lobby was cool and open, leading out to a huge atrium of restaurants. Our room was Nile facing with big balcony and sweeping views of the Nile, VOK and the gorgeous pool area. Maybe a little dated and a fair walk from the lifts and stairs. Little fruit platter on arrival was appreciated as well as the complimentary water. Comfortable bed and luxurious bathroom. Loved the shower!!! 18$ for breakfast was steep so we avoided that however we did eat at the Lebanese restaurant which was phenomenal. The pool area was divine, very reasonably priced menu and great chef preparing our orders. Watching the sunset on a sun lounger across the Nile with all the boats passing by was quite exceptional. Very convenient getting around Luxor, we couldn’t fault this hotel in any way. Can’t wait to come back!

Ahmed makes an amazing beetroot daiquiri! Highly recommend! It was a refreshing way to liven up our afternoon during our tour of Egypt with UVA & Odyssey Tours.

Fantastic room and service. Ahmed at the lobby bar makes fantastic cocktails. Beetroot cocktail and ginger margarita in particular were fantastic. I have never seen such a creative garnish before!

Best service from Achmed!!! He created an awesome healthy green juice for me on the whim. We will definitely be back!!! 💛💛✨💛✨💛✨💛✨💛✨💛

Lovely location next to the Nile with great breakfast. Tasty juices freshly made by Ahmed. Great sunset over the Nile. Paradise

The hotel is quite beautiful but with outdated rooms. The views are breath taking (as would be any other hotel you book with a Nile view in Luxor) and the breakfast amazing. It really isn't a 5 star hotel, maybe a 4 as its clear no maintenance just repairs have been made for a while. However stay away from any service like the spa and any other extras, the manager of the spa Eslam, will show you one price and then overcharge you 50% of the bill. When confronted about it, he laughs at your face and just says is part of egyptian culture to take advantage of people (?). I am very disappointed and will let everyone know this place is harbouring scams, we actually went to the manager of the hotel and it seems this is normal, judging from the lack of reaction and lack of accountability. This is absolutely not what a 5 star service is, it is how scammers operate.

The stay was very enjoyable, and the place was beautiful. All the staff were friendly, especially Mr. Ibrahim at the reception — he was very welcoming and extremely helpful.

We stayed here right at the end of our Egypt trip and were so happy with everything at the hotel. Honestly one of the best in Egypt and the world. Top class facilities and the most attentive staff I have ever experienced

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel! Everything was clean, comfortable, and well-organized. The atmosphere was relaxing, and the facilities were excellent. I truly enjoyed my experience and would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area. I would like to give special thanks to Ibrahim at the reception. He was very professional, friendly, and always ready to help with a smile. His welcoming attitude and quick assistance made my stay even more enjoyable. Ibrahim truly represents the spirit of great hospitality — thank you for your outstanding service!

Had a WONDERFUL experience and stay here, Ahmed at the Nile Bar & Lounge gave us the best experience after a day of exploring. It was absolutely perfect, I am glad we came here, he has great hospitality and made sure we were attended to at all times. Thank you Ahmed!

The omelet station was my favorite part of breakfast! I loved watching the chef make the omelets right in front of me. Such a great start to the day! The omelet station chef were so friendly and skillful. Every dish was made with care. So tasty and made just the way I like.
