Un lieu agréable, bien situé avec un personnel accueillant.
Pros:

J'ai été très bien accueillie par le propriétaire bienveillant. Le personnel chaleureux et serviable. Les repas étaient bons et le jardin très agréable. Le lieu est proche des commerces et du Nil.

Cons:

L'arrivée en eau n'est très fiable dans la salle de bain, c'était une surprise plutôt désagréable dans la nuit.

Accogliente, non lussuoso
Pros:

La colazione era abbondante e buona e servita in un incantevole giardino, perfetto per iniziare rilassati la Giornata e conoscere altri viaggiatori.
È un bel posto, accogliente e non lussuoso.
Utile nell' organizzazione dei tour, ne nostro caso ottimo guidatore per la valle dei Re!

Et dejligt ophold med smil og varme. Poolen, der lå fem minutters gang fra hotellet, lå i et roligt område og maden der,
Pros:

Hyggeligt og autentisk meden fantastisk gårdhave, hvor der blev serveret overdådig morgenmad og gode måltider til fornuftige priser. Værten og personalet er meget imødekommende og hjælpsomme.

Cons:

Værelserne trængte til en opløftning med fx dyner og hyggelig belysning.

A gem in the west bank
Pros:

The hotel is exactly as described. The entire place is immaculate. The room was big, as the toilet, it had a balcony and the furniture was appropriate, including comfortable matresses. The restaurant has a varied and very tasty menu at a good price. It's just a 6-minute walk to the ferry dock and 2 to the main street to pick up a taxi or tuktuk. The restaurant is in a very beautiful, well-kept garden, the space where you find refuge after the chaos and dust and tiredness of the day.

Cons:

This is not about hotel but to acknowledge that the west bank is not as developed as the east bank in Luxor, but most of the sites to visit are in the west, the ferry works 24 hours.

Wonderful place on the west bank
Pros:

Absolutely wonderful place. We spent a week here with 2 kids. The garden is beautiful, you take the meals there but you can spend any time of the day relaxing, it's delightful. The staff is great, always available and very respectful and helpful. The family room is spacious and clean, with a balcony. Breakfast is good, with bread, omelet, pancakes and rice pudding. The restaurant is decent and good value, open the whole day. The Luxor west bank has a nice village feel, with many good restaurants around.

Cons:

The beds are not very good, mattresses are worn out.

Of course I can recommend
Pros:

Our family spent 3 wonderful days at this hotel, and we only regret that we couldn’t stay longer.
The hotel is located in a quieter and more affordable part of Luxor. It is run by an Egyptian family; the owner is on-site at all times, making sure everything runs smoothly. The staff is friendly and not pushy – they don’t ask for tips for every little thing. The breakfasts are hearty, with something for everyone, and are served from 6 AM until whenever you're ready.
The biggest highlight of this hotel is its "chill" garden. You could sit there for hours! Breakfast is served in the garden, and there is also a small restaurant there, which I highly recommend as well.
Another big plus is the fact that the hotel has a pool just two buildings away, with free sunbeds and towels. It’s definitely worth visiting. Although the rooms are not brand new, they are clean and everything is in working order. The bedding was fresh and spotless. Just 3 minutes from the hotel, there is a street with local shops, and a 5-minute walk takes you to the boat landing. From there, you can take a ferry for 100 EGP to get the whole family across the river, right near the Luxor Temple (and onwards to Karnak). There is also a bike rental nearby.
It’s a great base for visiting the Valley of the Kings, going on a hot air balloon ride, or exploring the temples on the other side of the Nile.
We had no issues with early check-in, and we were able to leave our luggage and use the pool after checking out.

Cons:

It would be great to have a kettle and mugs in the rooms.

Pros:

Goed gelegen op Westbank, Westbank is veel rustiger gelegen dan eastbank en ook minder hazling.
Heel vriendelijk, familyrun hotel. Ze helpen je waar je ook naar toe wil, regelen transport, daguitstappen op westbank...
Zeer proper.
Het restaurant serveert ook lekker eten.

Cons:

Geen frigo op de kamer.

Wunderschöne ruhige grüne Oase.
Pros:

Das Fayrouz hat einen wunderschönen Garten, das Essen ist super lecker und das Personal super professionell und freundlich. Mein Zimmer mit Balkon war sehr groß, auch das Bad und alles war sauber. Die Lage auf der Westbank ist super wenn man zu den Tempelanlagen möchte. Man kann zu Fuß kleine Shops und auch die Boote zur anderen Stadtseite erreichen. Ich kann das Hotel nur weiterempfehlen, es ist eine kleine Oase und wirklich etwas Besonderes.

Cons:

J'y retournerai avec plaisir !
Pros:

L'emplacement au calme sur la rive ouest, près des commerces et du débarcadère du ferry public est vraiment idéal. Le jardin (où on peut prendre petits déjeuners et repas) est très reposant avec sa végétation fournie. La cuisine est bonne et on sert même de la bière et du vin égyptien! Tout les membres du personnel sont agréables et efficaces. Les chambres, assez simples, sont spacieuses et très propres.

Cons:

Quelques bricoles en cherchant bien... La qualité de la wifi un peu erratique dans les étages et donc dans les chambres... Le petit déjeuner, copieux et servi à toute heure (!), mais peu varié (Même chose d'un jour sur l'autre et même confiture à l'abricot pendant mes 7 jours...).

A lovely place to stay to see the sights in Luxor.
Pros:

Big Breakfast, in fact too much, but can be altered if you just ask! This is NOT a luxury hotel, as can be seen by the price. I don't want TV, mini bar, etc, just somewhere comfortable and nice to stay and a base to go and see the sights. The restaurant is wonderful. Loads of helpful staff who will bend overbbackwards to help.

The place to book for your visit to Luxor
Pros:

The hotel is best positioned to visit Luxor, both East and West banks, staying in a rather peaceful area of the city. It is in the proximity of the ferry and is surrounded by many restaurants and shops, including those renting bikes. The staff has been friendly and available all the time, either to sort out things or just for a nice chat in the garden. The restaurant, as is well-known, is fantastic and the breakfast is very good as well. If you would like to spend some time in Luxor in a friendly and calm environment, this is the place to book.

Cons:

Upon arrival there was nobody at the reception and I had to look for the personnel in the garden. That said, their friendly attitude and availability largely made up for this :)
