This is the place! There are not enough words to describe my stay there, but I’ll try. First of all, they staff is amazing! They have that mentality that they want you to feel like part of the family and be comfortable there; and they succeed at it. They will try their very best to fulfill your needs and make you feel like a valued guest. Not only they are welcoming, but they will happily share and talk about their culture & history. This is priceless. Furthermore, the owner is a wonderful cook and you’ll be served authentic Egyptian cuisine that is a pure delight. Also, the location is perfect for two reasons; close to the Valley of the Kings and other attractions and for the amazingly quiet atmosphere & neighbourhood. Don’t forget the roof; a wonderful place to relax at night. I can only say a big thank you to all the family for these amazing days; an experience that will bring me back to Luxor in the near future. I’m happy I had the chance to experience the kindness and hospitality of the Egyptian people with this great family!

Nothing.

The east bank of Luxor (east side of the Nile is chaos. Constant horn beeping, congested streets with no sidewalks, choking pollution, hassles and hustles. The Rose Guest House, also known as "pharaonic rose" on Google Maps is the opposite. A very peaceful location with the clip clop of horse and donkey hoofs, clean air, gentle people and close to the important historic sites in Luxor. Valley of the Kings, etc are all within walking distance or a short taxi ride. The hotel is completely safe with an honest and trustworthy owner and staff. The rooms are clean and basic. Nothing fancy but comfortable at a great price. The owner had a taxi pick me up at the airport at a fair price which was a big help. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel. I felt so fortunate that I decided to stay here for 10 nights compared to the chaos of the east bank. Yes, Karnak and the Luxor Temple are in the east bank but it's best to take a short taxi ride there from the west bank (pharaonic rose hotel) and avoid the tension of getting a hotel on the east bank.

Can't think of anything I didn't like. The location is excellent, the people super nice and it was a great value.

It was our best stay in Egypt so far. It is a beautiful place near the death valleys and many great temples. The personal is very friendly, they even cooked for us when we arrived at 11pm. The dinner by the way is the best local food we had in Egypt, simply delicious! They offer good prices for transportation, laundry and everything. If you go to Aswan afterwards and Abu Simbel, just ask the owner Yabba, he knows someone for a tour and you will pay way less then if you book it directly in Aswan. Also the hot air balloon is quite cheap if you book it with the homestay. Everything was just perfect, thank you very much again!

Everything was great

Lovely peaceful guesthouse, which feels like home away from home. The owner goes above and beyond to provide amazing service at a low price with delicious breakfast. We also ordered dinner, and it was a nutritious homemade meal with a vegetarian option available. We were allowed to check in early in the morning and check out at midday with our breakfast served then. I highly recommend it to anyone as close to Valley of Kings on West Bank. True Nubian hospitality!

That we didn't have time to stay longer.

Experience the real friendliness of Egyptians away from tourist hassling and right next to the Egypt must-see temples and tombs. The guesthouse is very calm and clean. The location perfect to be early at the monuments before the tourist rush (e.g Valley of Kings) The host Gabalawy speaks English very well and was amazing to talk with - telling us more about the local lifestyle as well as organizing any transport or activity for us. He also cooks delicious traditional Egyptian food with homemade bread baked in the guesthouse clay oven! Also working there is Omar who is very nice and always happy show you around the area. Don't be affraid to be staying a bit further away from the center of Luxor, it is definitely worth it!

Staff is absolutely superb. Very knowledgeable about the area, well-connected for trips/activities, and absolutely willing to help in every situation. Also just very nice people in general. Rooms are older but very clean and great value for money. Location is very quiet, away from the city noise.

Location is good as a basis for trips (which need to be done by car anyway) but is somewhat removed from the main city. That's not a negative, especially if one prefers the quiet, but something to consider.

The owner is very nice. We can ask about anything. He can also book the hot air balloon for us, sadly we can't go on the hot air balloon because of the wind. They are even willing to cook for 9 of us on 9.00PM . Their cooks were also really delicious. The owner has lots of chilli trees that are really spicy. He even let us pick them all for my mother because he knows that we asian love it spicy. We dont have much activity in luxor but luckily we stay in this hotel. The food really makes us enjoy our short time there. Thank you Jabr and sons. From Malaysia.

Everything about the Pharaonic Rose was perfect. I spent some of the happiest days of my life in Luxor thanks in no small part to the Pharaonic Rose. They have a rooftop with a view of the cliffs and Medinet Habu. The seating area downstairs is shady and in an oasis of a garden. It's very close to Medinet Habu, but far enough away that it is very quiet. It was so nice to have a quiet and peaceful place to return to after the bustle of the tourist areas. The food was amazing. They would just pile heaps of delicious food in front of you. The breakfast was the best I had in Egypt and they can prepare lunch and dinner for you as well. They also organized very affordable transportation for reaching different sites in the area. The family that runs the Pharaonic Rose is extremely kind and welcoming. By the end of the stay I felt like part of the family and the Pharaonic Rose felt like home. To get all that for such a reasonable price is unbelievable! It was truly a once in a lifetime experience. If you are going to Luxor, stay here.

Nothing, everything was perfect.

A oasis of peace. Great tranquil place to stay and not just see all that Luxor has to offer, but also to relax. All the staff were very kind and attentive, the food was good and plentiful. If you need a tour or transportation, it will be organized reliably for a fair price, but nobody pushes you to buy anything. Some sights are even in walking distance. Absolutely safe for solo female travellers. If I ever come back to Luxor, I'll choose this place again!

everything ; the kindness of the owner and the staff, their availability for us. regarding the rooms, they have all what ones need ; the beds are comfortable and the bathroom met our needs. food : the owner cooks 'with love' ; everybody eats the same and it's always excellent ! ask whatever you want and you'll get it. The fact that you meet a lot of people from different cultures , origins is great They all care about all what you need and make your dreams come true :-)
