Amon Hotel

The Amon hotel has an excellent reputation that is thoroughly deserved. It is basic compared to large hotel chains but very clean and the service is warm and friendly. The food at the hotel is delicious and inexpensive plus you can buy beer! The beds were comfortable and the shower was hot. An extra piece of soap would've been nice. Their laundry costs are quite expensive but their is a local laundry nearby that charges only EP10 per piece. Because it is located on the West Bank, you save lots of time getting to the main tourist attractions.

Amon Hotel is a very nice, quiet place to stay on the west side of the Nile in Luxor. It’s less than a 10-minute walk from the ferry and once you are off the main road, there are signs that point you where to go and the hotel is clearly marked. The owner is very nice and his kids are fun - they showed us all around the hotel and were very welcoming. It seems to be a very family-friendly place. The rooms are simple but clean and in good condition. The atmosphere of this hotel is very peaceful. And they were kind enough to arrange a driver for us for everything we wanted to see. We would stay with them again!

Authentic and rustic Located on the quieter West Bank, the hotel (more of a large guest house) is bang in the middle of a village of locals and gives this place a really authentic feel. The locals in the town centre can harass you extensively, but those in the neighbourhood just want to say hello or get on with their day. I haven't always felt safe in Egypt travelling solo, but here I feel completely at home! Every single member of staff is fantastic. Not all of them speak much English, but they'd do anything to make your stay more comfortable. At least three of the staff speak English well: The owner, Mahmoud, usually hangs around the hotel but also lives locally and treats his guests like family. Ahmed will always greet you with a smile and a warm welcome and Talab is a perfect gentleman who will drive you wherever you need to go. The rooms are divided into three blocks, which have been added at different times. Block one has the best rustic feel. My shower wasn't working properly and Mahmoud proposed a number of solutions. Eventually, I moved to a room in the newer block. Most rooms overlook a beautiful green courtyard with exposed and shaded outdoor seating and a pool. There is also a restaurant on site with indoor and outdoor seating. Everything is reasonably priced, tours can be organised in house, and there's a little shop around the corner for things like bottled water staffed by a couple of lovely ladies who speak no English but will not rip you off.

Manager does not act like a host. Tried to rip us off with phantasy excange rates. Hotel must have been nice when the founder still lived. His son is arrogant.

Amon is an extremely charming hotel with a beautiful garden and nice new piil, a cheap five minute boat ride away from the touristic centre of Luxor. Its the perfect choice for those who want an authentic experience. Mohamed, the owner, and his family are wonderful, warm and welcoming hosts. The rooms are simple but very clean.

I am Japanese and came to Egypt alone. Amon Hotel is the best hotel. The owner and staff are all kind. Even though I couldn't speak English or Arabic, they kindly talked to me. There is air conditioning, the rooms are clean, and the food is delicious. It was a great memory. I want to go again. Sorry if I caused you trouble. Thank you everyone!
