“Slightly dissappointed”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 January 2012
3
people found this review helpful

We stayed at this hotel in November 2012 on a friends recommendation. Maybe our expectations were too high but we were a little dissappointed with this hotel. The concept was lovely and the decor reminiscent of earlier times but somehow it felt a bit tatty. The gardens needed weeding, the fountains weren't working and some of the furniture was in need of repair. Some of the staff were not exactly friendly, welcoming or attentive. Unfortunately, because of the recent political upheaval in Egypt, the hotel was almost empty of guests and this probably contributed to its air of neglect and the lassitude of the staff. I would recommend it to a group but not necessarily to couples.

“Enchanting”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 December 2011

person found this review helpful

From the moment we walked up the path into the lobby, everything was magical. Absolutely every focal point is a work of art, showing the remarkable eye for detail of the owner. We couldn't stop taking pictures whereever we looked : the patios, the pool, the poolhouse, the vegetation, the lobby, the courtyard, the lounge, the restaurant, it is all so tasteful, really like being in a private home right out of Archtecture Digest, but with a relaxed local colour too. We stayed three nights, and could have stayed at least two more! Al Moudira is located on the West Bank, so an easy drive to the Kings Valley, and really not far from Louxor either. But fortunately, far from the noise and harassment of downtown Louxor. We were more than happy to dine at Al Moudira every night, two nights in the romantic courtyard by the fountain, and one night in the restaurant.The cuisine is absolutely delicious, with new home made dishes on selection every night. The staff is helpful and friendly, yet discreet

“TOTALLY DIFFERENT”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 December 2011
1
person found this review helpful

This is one of my favorite hotels in Luxor and it's in my opinion one of the best design hotels in all Egypt. It is located on the West Bank, close to the Valley of the Kings.

It is highly recommended for:
- Honeymooners.
- Travellers who would like to enjoy a memorable stay away from the crowd of Luxor.
- Travellers who enjoy staying at authentic boutique hotels, rather than big standard chain hotels.

Each room or suite is designed differently with real (or half real) antique furniture. Walls are hand-painted with oriental motives and patterns. The swimming pool area is quiet and relaxing. One of the best moments is having breakfast while listening to the birds singing. Very romantic!

It’s a unique charming hotel full of oriental details.

We did not stay there this time but we had to go for lunch as I just cannot visit Luxor without my dose of Al Moudira!

Its such a wonderful magical place and I just cannot get enough of it.

You really must try this feast for the eyes...Highly recommended

“Wonderul oasis from the hustle and bustle of Luxor”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 November 2011
2
people found this review helpful

A perfect retreat during our trip to Egypt; quiet and relaxing. Interesting architecturally, loved the way the buildiings were laid out and decorated. Our room was huge and airy with an enormous and very comfortable bed. Lovely gardens and pool with plenty of loungers and shade. The staff were attentive without being intrusive and very friendly. Slight drawback is the location which for dinner means eating in or getting a 20 minute taxi ride to Luxor, The food is ok, somewhat international in character, not very exciting.

The feeling of spaciousness was a wonderful antidote to the noise and persistent attention we experienced in Luxor. We would definitely return to the hotel and are very happy to recommend it.

Room Tip: All rooms seemed very good
