10/10 Excellent
"My stay at the Nefertiti hotel was one of a kind and amazing. All of the staff were very kind and professional. Ahmed was so cool and kind. I felt safe in the hotel let alone the area.The rooms are clean and the bed is comfortable. This hotel has an old Egyptian rustic antique style to it. As a solo women traveler and black woman I never felt uncomfortable. I felt at home and like family as if they were my uncles and brothers. The food is GREAT on the rooftop and so is the view. I would definitely go back when in Luxor. Also you can walk to get your brows done , and the market, and McDonald's if you like. They will help you, and arrange anything you may need ,just ask, although they will ask you anyway. Also they have a car service that will pick you up from the airport very affordable . Thank you Nefertiti hotel."

8/10 Good
"The hotel was as expected, and the staff were consistently helpful. I was, however, disappointed by the very limited number of women on staff. I recognize that women are less represented in the workforce in Egypt, and having visited the country several times, was prepared for that disparity. Still, it can be uncomfortable as a female guest to have nearly every interaction be with men. I continue to hope that hotels—particularly those with international ownership and clientele—will give greater consideration to gender diversity among their staff."

"We stayed five nights at the Hilton Spa & Resort in Luxor with my wife and teen daughter in two connecting rooms. The staff were attentive throughout, particularly those managing the pool and exterior restaurant. The property’s true strength is its waterfront location directly on the Nile: the infinity pools, outdoor seating, and sunset views are exceptional. All in all, an excellent stay."

"The staff were very friendly, the property was clean and the room service was amazing. The only thing I would comment on is the pool needed a little bit more cleaning but with how hot it is we did not care. This one minor blip didn’t ruin anything for us and we would highly recommend. It’s in good walking distance to places as well."
