    Nice architecture, but quite dark in the room

    The bed was only about 1.4m wide and too small for us two. Very dim ambient in the room.

    Very nice building at a quiet place at the West Bank with free shuttle boat to the East Bank. This hotel is located at the riverside close to reeds and we enjoyed the time sitting in the garden seeing things around us. Our room was with a big and beautiful balcony and we had a good view at the Nile from our balcony. There were two cute geckos in our room.

    The room was a bit dark and we had two single beds. Wifi is of poor quality. No alcohol sold

    We were on the west side of Luxor but the hotel provide a taxi boat to take you anywhere in Luxor. The place is boarding the Nil and there are fields around full of birds. Breakfast is very good and the coffee is amazing. You can organise excursion with the hotel at a very competitive price

    The approach in the evening was so pretty from the boat across the river and garden lit. The hotel is on the West Bank away from the hassle the other side. Peaceful pool and delicious food with very friendly and polite staff. The room was one near the pool at the end of the garden which was fab and with a couple of chairs to sit outside our room if wanted. Marina greeted us when we arrived and gave us tips and advice for our stay. She & her husband have created something special here without shouting about it It’s gorgeous .

    We loved the location and the grandeur of Djorff Palace. Marina and her staff made us feel very welcome. We enjoyed being on the quieter West bank and loved catching the complimentary boat across the Nile. Our meals were excellent and we loved our fancy four poster bed in the Amber room.

    It’s a real place and you feel that you are in Egypt and in Luxor in the first minute. A beautiful Oasis near the Nile with a wonderful view. The pool is great and you have special breakfast and dinner outside in the garden. The boat to the other side works perfect and it’s a great location for all the visits in the west side!

    Overlooking the Nile, Mohammed's wonderful buildings combined with Marina's carefully selected antique furnishings, accompanied by modern, comfortable facilities make the Djorff a truly unique place to stay. Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, breakfast included local dishes alongside more typical offerings, lunches and dinners had beside the pool were all first class. Mohammed is rightly proud of his creation, and Marina a wonderful hostess; both clearly care deeply about their guests and their staff.

    The breakfast is very boring. I recommend foregoing it and instead eating at The Old Egyptian Village which is 10 mins walk from Djorff Palace. Remember that the breakfast needs to be pre-ordered one day in advance.

    An extremely charming place right by the Nile with a free boat service to the east bank. The owners are very friendly and helpful.

    There was nothing not to like!

    Everything about this place oozes of character and personality. A tranquil, relaxing atmosphere, while at the same time every nook and cranny of the building has some hidden treats for your eyes to feast on! The hospitality of the staff was great, and our hosts Mohamed and Marina were delightfully warm and welcoming. It was a small oasis of restful self-care after 4 long days of visiting the temples of Aswan and Luxor!!

    Elegant, evocative hotel on the peaceful West Bank

    One side of the hotel is still under construction, though there was no work going on while we were there so no noise. It'll no doubt be great when it's finished. The double bed in our room was distinctly on the small side, and the lighting rather low & gloomy: the owner did warn us about these things (a result of sourcing authentic furniture & lighting) but still good to be aware of this.

    We stayed at the classic Winter Palace in Luxor first, and wish we'd stayed here more than one night: the peaceful setting on the shore of the West Bank was wonderful. The architecture is beautiful too, really evocative and elegantly done. A great deal of care has gone into the interior decor. Also lovely to enjoy meals at the outdoor restaurant with great riverside view.

    A unique and affordable hotel experience on West Bank
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • Queen Room with Balcony - Sapphire
    • Stayed 3 nights

    It's Egypt after all and we cannot compare the staff services with other countries. Although there were not many guests and the staff were all friendly, there is still room for improvement (talking about restaurant). We learnt that you need to be very precise of what you want. For example, if you ordered FRESH mint tea one night and the next night you wanted the same, you must explicitly asked for the EXACT same thing, or you might get a Lipton teabag with some dried mint leaves. Egyptians would always come with some excuses first, then 5 mins after they realised what happened, they would ask if they could bring you a new pot with fresh mint leaves.

    Style and location of the hotel on the West Bank. Menu at the restaurant had various options and changed daily. The owner helped to arrange the West Bank Tour and Hot-Air Balloon Ride (a must), which we thought the prices were fair and hassle-free. The easy and convenient boat shuttle from hotel to East Bank. WiFi was excellent throughout the hotel, and very good laundry services! The entire premise was beautiful and unique and much better than staying on the East Bank with the cookie-cutter style chained hotels. We stayed in the Sapphire Suite and liked it a lot, as it was tastefully decorated, private, quiet and spacious. There are many rooms on site, all decorated differently, and wish we could have a tour on a few of them!

    Room was beautiful though carpets a bit worn and dusty, and a lot of pigeon droppings on the terrace.

    Location was perfect, easy to reach the tombs and other sites, while being a peaceful respite from noise of central Luxor, which was a very quick and enjoyable boat ride across the Nile. Particularly appreciated the boat taking us direct to Luxor Temple for a small extra fee. Food was very good and ambience excellent. Staff were helpful and responsive and there was a friendly, informal and relaxed feel to the place.

    Well, probably one little thing :) I'm less than 1.60 m tall and the mirror in the room was a little bit too high for me. But as I sad, this was the last of my problems.

    Djorff Palace is an absolutely amazing place I felt immediately in love with. It's one of the best values quality/money I ever have in the world. The ambiance, the food, the rooms, the exactitude, the owners - everything was perfect. Тhe moment I set foot there I said I want never leave it. They was able to find all I requested. It's one of few places in Egypt I was entirely safe.
