Positive Reviews
positive:
Unique and historic property.
The historic architecture and contemporary services of the hotel make it a nice stay for anyone visiting Luxor or the surrounding area. If you love staying at hotels with a vintage feel, the Sofitel is perfect – the property is equally as beautiful when it comes to the lush gardens and sparkling swimming pools.

If you have a special request or want a personalised experience, the hotel staff is on hand to make that happen for you. Be sure to make any requests known prior to arriving so that any accommodations can be taken care of promptly.
positive:
Great location.
When staying at the hotel property, there’s plenty to see and do in the surrounding area. Many historic ruins are within walking distance, as well as the famous Nile. Speak with hotel staff about setting up transportation to visit nearby spots or determine if there are any possible tours to engage in during a stay.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Unstable surroundings.
While Egypt and Luxor are beautiful places to visit, current events and strife make it a volatile destination for many travellers. As with any holiday destination, be sure to check in with your respective embassy or bureau to determine if there are any travel warnings in place – also stay up to date with area news and be vigilant in any surroundings.
negative:
Food quality inconsistent.
Depending on the number of travelers there at any given time, restaurants could be a bit empty and slow. While there is a number of options available, some dishes might be more bland or simple than desired at a luxury resort. If you are willing to go outside the property for local fare, you will have more options.
negative:
Slow Internet access.
Some locations of the hotel experience spotty Wi-Fi connectivity.
