Emilio Hotel Luxor, 3 hotel reviews

"An oasis in the middle of Luxor"
I stayed at this hotel for 5 days in December, 2005 and I was surprised how good it was for a 3 star hotel. It was perfectly situated in the downtown area close to the Nile and the Luxor Temple and Luxor Museum. I had no cause for complaint with the hotel: the staff were very pleasant and helpful; the rooms were roomy and very clean; the dining room and breakfast were excellent; the lobby and bar service could not be better and the roof top terrace (with a swimming pool)was superb with its bar service and shaded areas and views over the city. It was always a delight to get back to the hotel to relax in comfort after a days walking and sightseeing. I'd strongly recommend this place to anyone and I'd certainly stay there again. The garden restaurant, Chez Omar, with its food and staff (Hassan and Hussein) about half a block down the street from the hotel was excellent.

"Lovely Luxor Hotel"
This hotel was part of our package and we were very happy. The room was kept very clean with towels folded into flowers and snakes. The deck had a wire rack for drying clothes which we appreciated immensely. The hotel had a disco, bar, shop and nicely furnished lobby. Everyone we met was extremely helpful and pleasant. I highly recommend this hotel. I'm not interested in staying in the top hotel in the area. I want more local and this fit the bill.

"The Best People in the World"
First i want to say this place is spectaculer. The views are so bueatiful the contrast is magnicificant you can look down on to the main road and see how life is luxor is turn ur head towards the nile you see excavations and sphixes that have been uncoverd look towards the nile you see great mountains and desert beneath it and then next to the nile lush green fields you have 5 landscapes in one from a balcony from the emilio if your on the top floors.Evrything is soooo close the tourist market is virutly 90 secounds by walking the temple of karnack is easily reached buy taxi and within 5 minites buy walk you get to the luxor temple and from the top of the emilio you can sit and eat dinner while watching the world go buy with the anciant civalisation (luxor temple) lit up while you see the nile flowing. The hotel is is extensivly clean but its a shame luxor could not all be like this as you should no luxor is of the cleanest citys.But one thing that i loved the most about this hotel was was THE PEOPLE omg the staff were so great they take care of you like there your brouthers and sisters this is one thing that you take for granted its very very rare to meet intresting people and bare this inmind i have collected 7 of the staffs numbers and are constantly in touch with them.I also tell you there is a bar a downstairs restaurant a cool disco and a little very intresting shop.The bar is a great place to socialise with the staff and have a nice relaxing drink on the broad sofas and the disco is ok not bad should be checked out and the little shop is one of the best places to get a fair price in luxor you see little tourists realise that when there buying in fixed price shops your paying for the quality not the quantity and you dont want to carry unessery quantiy in your lugage do you were 65 percent of it will breack i loved this shop because when you first walk in to it its seems very small basic overpriced but then you go to the market and you compare and your happy that someware in luxor gives you a fixed fair price and there are numours quality stones in this shop you see what gets me angry is when tourist come in find out the price of something they really really like it puts them off because they cant bargin but at the end of the day there going to the markets and even when they haggle to the lowest price tourist still pay high above the odds no matter what you think so i greatly recomend this shop for jewllery small soverniers and papyrus outside the shop is very good but a a cheap price compared to the outside and there are also a lot of women pyjamers on sale there lol.Well in conclusion i stayed there for 2 weeks and this review you probably think is exagerated and is exagerated if your just a pakage tourist but you need to bare in mind this place is the the place to stay to meet the people and to sleep in style p.s the cleaners are great they are non stop cleaning evry morning so the floors are gleaming and also make you sculpters of scarebs and numours animails e.g swans etc socialise with the staff and you will not forget this experiance,,,, best rooms are at the top i stayed here in febuary and buy the time i wanted to go back to london i was very sad but the main thing it was a great experiance..
