Lovely one night stay...all the staff were very kind and helpfull.If you want an amazing value stay away from the trappings of the main town..this may be the destination for you..set in amongst local village life its away from the big corporate hotels..nice and peaceful.

It was situated in a quite area along with the locals and other hotels near by.
The entrance to the hotel is deceptive as inside it is very big and has a large swimming pool.
The team looking after the guests were absolutely friendly and helpful.
The hotel food is cheap and delicious with a good selection.
I would recommend this hotel for any family stay.

This hotel is tucked away but when you enter it has lovely gardens, courtyard and the pool is great. The staff are very friendly and looked after us well. A small housekeeping tip gets you some very interesting towel creatures/flowers in your room!
We enjoyed the food from the restaurant, which was very reasonably priced. The breakfast was good too. The room itself (we stayed quadruple) was as per the photo and very clean. Beds were comfortable and A/C was good.
The location is great. It's less than 5 minutes walk to the ferry to get over to the East bank (10EGP). From there you can either walk or easily catch a Caleche or taxi to Luxor or Karnak temple.
Being on the West bank it also means you're closer to the West bank sights. The hotel staff can help organise guides and transport should you want it. Also, we 'only' had to get up to be picked up at 4:30am for our balloon flight, when people on the same flight staying East bank got picked up at 2:30am!)
There's a small shop next to the hotel which sold cheap water and snacks. There's also an ATM and pharmacy within a few minutes walk. We didn't try any nearby restaurants as after sightseeing all day it was just too tempting to relax by the pool and order food from the hotel!
Only downside is that they only accept cash payments - so I recommend the 'pay now' option when booking.
Overall I would definitely recommend this hotel, especially at the price it is

Our stay was perfect. The hotel is very close to the ferry 10 egp and you're in the other side. Room was confortable and clean. The service was good thanks to Rafa abd his team hassan and mohamed.

First off staying on the West Bank is the way to go. East bank is crowded, loud, and full of tourists. If you want a bit quieter more local option the West Bank is great. That being said Hotel Sheherazade is a gem! Safe location tucked away off the Main Street. The property is large and has everything you need. Clean pool, large courtyard, great restaurant area, and the staff and owner are so so nice and helpful. We booked one night but ended up staying three! It’s a 3 minute walk to the dock to catch a boat to east bank, and 15 minute taxi to see valley of kings, temple of Hatshepsut, etc. believe the hype, this little hotel is a great deal, and you will feel like a local and treated as part other family. 10/10 would stay a million times more.

The personnal is very friendly and helpful. Nice hotel located in the west bank, with a swimming pool. The garden is nice too. You can take the boat to cross the nil for going in Louxor. Good food for lunch or diner

This property looks rural and rustic which it is but basic amenities are lacking, we couldn’t wait to move onto the next destination

The staff was great. They made it feel more like a family visit than a hotel. They helped arrange tour of a bunch of West Bank sites, and generally went out of way to be helpful throughout stay. I preferred staying on West Bank, though more hotels are on east side. Property included a good restaurant and a pool.

Excellent stay in Sheherazade, Mohammed and his team are all really very sympathic and makes you feel home. They helped to book tours, transfers or anything you need with great quality guides.
Great location 5min from the nil, the pool is a great area and refreshment after visiting Valley of the kings.
Very good food for lunch too
I highly recommend Sheherazade hoping to come back again.

This is a nice, quiet place to stay. The staff is super helpful. The person in charge of breakfast would wake up early for me and have it ready. The owner worked with.my wife and arranged tour guides and private taxis to East bank and airport. I highly recommend this place.
Thanks all for making our stay pleasant and memorable.
inshallah, we will be back again!

Staff was friendly, courteous, accommodating, and helpful almost to a fault. Room for the price was excellent, food was delicious, beverages were refreshing. Did I mention the pool? My family and I loved the pool. The valley of the Kings is only minutes away. Hot air balloon rides even closer. I will definitely stay here again.

I think this property is great and I would highly recommend it. It is easy to find but it is also in an authentic residential area which I enjoyed as it gave me a flavour of the 'real' Egypt. Mohamed, the owner was very helpful and friendly, as were all the staff. I also liked that it was very near to fields and a banana plantation where I could enjoy watching birds. I hope to return again in future.

Firstly, the location of the hotel is really good if you are staying at the West Bank of Luxor. The hotel is a 5 minute walk from the ferry to the west bank. There are some small shops around it so it’s convenient. The area of the hotel itself is not the greatest, very small dirt road to get to it.Upon checking in they said we are getting a twin room rather than a double as they ran out of doubles but we just moved them together ourselves and that worked alright so it wasnt the end of the world.The room itself is okay, the bathroom can use a bit of updating but it wasnt too bad.

Fantastic deal in Luxor on the West Bank. Wi-Fi wasn’t working at the time but this is towards the end of the major Covid pandemic. The pool was great, the bar and restaurant where too

The staff here are very friendly. We arrived very late in the night. We were supposed to have 1 room for 4 people but they gave us 2 rooms for the same price which worked out better. We were only there to sleep one night and we had to leave early morning. Its not the ritz but its simple and they have a nice country style. We had a nice breakfast the next day. You do wake up to the sound of rooster which was kind of cute.

Hotel Sheherazade is a great value. The building and grounds are beautiful and the rooms are basic but with AC and comfortable beds. The pool was a nice treat. Breakfast was substantial and served just off the courtyard. The wifi signal wasnt great in my room or in the lobby, but I wasnt expecting much. The hotel transfer was a bit expensive compared to taking a taxi, but the drivers were timely and professional and it was worth it to me not to have to deal with haggling with a taxi driver.The location is great--just a five-minute walk to the ferry across the Nile and plenty of nearby shops, restaurants, and grocery stores. As a solo female traveler, I felt safe here, which is really important to me. I will definitely stay again if I ever return to Luxor.

The hotel property is beautifully decorated. They have a nice, clean pool and outdoor couches to just lounge and hang out. The rooms were mediocre at best

Convenient West Bank hotel that is clean, and comfortable. Staff is friendly and helpful. Hot Water is scalding hot so be careful showering. Has pool but did not use because it was too cold.,,but clean. Pleasant garden area and they strike up a fire in a pit each evening. Easy ferry or private boat across Nile for 5LE. Not much on the West Bank in evening but great launching pad for the sites.

Like so many other hotels in Egypt, the lack of customers has a detrimental effect on the maintenance of the hotel. It is clear that they are struggling to cope but in spite of all of the challenges, I enjoyed my stay. The staff was prepared to do anything to make our stay pleasant. Any requests was attended to quickly and efficiently. The hotel is close to the river (although no view of the Nile). It is a few minutes walk to the ferry and for only 1 Egyptian pound, you can travel with the ferry to the east bank.The rate was very reasonable.If you prefer the more local feel of a city, then this is an excellent choice.

Considering the price I payed per night (12 GBP) I should have been more prepared and tolerate, but as the previous customers reviews were outstandingly good, I was disappointed to see the reality. To be honest, the great thing about this hotel was only price and quiet neighbor. Apart from that, I have to say my room was not exactly clean, hot shower was unstable(in December, the temperature could get to single digit and it was freezing without hot shower),no heating in the room, not trained staff ( I asked for a hair dryer which was not equipped in the room, and 1 staff told me there is none in the facility, and I tried different staff next day, and yes they do have a dryer that guest could use), towels were very rough, one day they forgot to clean the room. I should not have expected more than I had paid for.
