Clean and comfortable, lovely gardens, outdoor seating and pool area for relaxing - a great “oasis” to retreat to after a day out in Luxor! Location on West Bank is quiet and only a few minutes walk to the ferries to cross the Nile, a few cafe/restaurants for evenings nearby too. Staff are all really friendly and helpful. We booked tours with the hotel reception to Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut and Habu Temples, also Hot Air Ballon over the West Bank - each of the tours was great and went smoothly, pricing was slightly above other providers on Booking.com but the local knowledge was appreciated with so many sights to see here….

Location was fine for us but it is a dusty back street off the main road so at first glance was a little cautious of where we’d arrived at! Hotel management preferred to take all payments in cash and not keen on allowing card payments, prices quoted for tours differed from one day to another too - 7000 EGP discussed the previous night became 7800 EGP thé following morning on asking to confirm the booking…. Agreed on the 7000 again eventually and paid 2000 cash deposit (would not allow card payment) and later they begrudgingly allowed us to pay bal by card with additional 2% then added to cover card fee which we understand but annoying - there always seemed opportunity to take additional ££££! I think the moral of the tale is make sure you’re crystal clear on every arrangement there!

This is a lovely, friendly, well located hotel in the west bank. The atmosphere was great - both catering and housekeeping staff were excellent and fantastic with the children. The building itself is quirky and feels very calm. The pool and pool area is a real treat after hot days out sightseeing in and around Luxor. The whole experience felt a little more authentic than some of the all inclusive, highly polished tourist alternatives. Breakfast was really nice and staff were really flexible and happy to accommodate our fussy children. All in all a really great stay

The building is a little dated and rooms could do with a revamp

We are a family of 6 and this is our honest opinion. We were not given a card and asked to leave a review. This place… unexpectedly magic. It is bigger as the photos show, with beautiful gardens and birds singing in a peaceful atmosphere. At night the cricket‘s sounds, replace the birds chirping. The staff is friendly but not invasive so you really feel relaxed. Being on the west bank, away from Luxor‘s chaos, means more space, tranquility, less expensive, more genuine local life. The short boat trip over the Nile to reach Luxor is impressive. The rooms are spacious and clean anf the structure spots also a restaurant.

Nothing. It’s just perfect. We regret booking only one night here.

The staff were incredibly friendly. The hotel had the most amazing food of all the places we stayed in Egypt. You MUST try the shish kebab and the beef shawarma! The pool area was lovely except when the music was being played too loudly.

The rooms are TINY! The first room we were in had an air conditioner that made such a racket that kept us awake all night. Fortunately we were changed to another (slightly bigger) room with a better ac. The shower flooded the entire bathroom no matter how hard you tried to not get the floor wet.

Lovely premises, breakfast was good, the room was clean and well furnished. The pool area is great to relax in and we had some nice food/drinks from the restaurant. It is conveniently located next to the public ferry and great value for money. The staff were really accommodating, especially Rafael the manager. We really enjoyed our stay!

We had an issue with the car they booked but the staff were very apologetic and sorted everything out

We had the most lovely two days at Sunset Guesthouse Abusir. The owner and his family were incredibly welcoming and kind providing all meals requested. The rooms were kept in very good condition and stocked with plenty of water. The hotel has a rooftop lounge where you can have meals and drinks providing the perfect location to watch the sunset/rise.

We absolutely loved our stay in Hotel Sheherazade, it was perfect for a family. The staff were amazing - so friendly, polite and helpful. The hotel has a fantastic swimming pool which was well received after walking around the beautiful monuments in the heat. The hotel’s restaurant served delicious food at a reasonable price - we loved the baba ganoush, tahini and fish tagine in particular. The hotel is on the West Bank so it’s a bit quieter than the East which was perfect for us and it’s really easy, cheap and fun to get a boat across to see Luxor Temple and Karnak Temple. We would definitely recommend this hotel.

Nothing :)

The hotel is conveniently located on the west bank of Luxor (the east bank is too busy). First of all, we were given a rooftop bedroom where it was very hot and the air-conditioning did not work well. We asked for a change of room and the staff kindly accepted our request. The new bedroom was more comfortable and in better condition. The hotel is not too crowded and the pool can be a relief on sweltering hot days.

The breakfast was disappointing. The tours and services offered were a bit overpriced so we opted for arranging everything on our own.

The architecture is unbelievable, hosts are very kind and are always available if you need something, they also offer welcome drinks each time you go to the pool. It’s clean, beautiful and the hotel is only 5min walk from the Nile

Pool is not always very clean, but you can swim without any problem

If you are looking for a nice and clean hotel on West Bank, Luxor, Hotel Sheherazade is a very good alternative. The location is very good, short distance to anything, restaurants, ferryboat, shops and transport. The best of all is a lovely swimmingpool with sunbeds and free towels. And the staff is kind and helpful and will do anything you ask for. Breakfast is basic, and the room is very clean. Hotel Sheherazade gives you very good value for money.

I would appreciate to have a lock in the door to my bathroom, But we have to remember that we cannot expect five star standard in a three star hotel.
