Hotels in LuxorA simple, family-run 3-star on Luxor’s West Bank
7.5/10
Warm hospitality and a generous pool, but rooms need more consistent upkeep.
Elphardous Oasis is a simple, family-run 3-star on Luxor’s quieter West Bank. It’s a good pick for temple sightseeing followed by downtime in the garden or outdoor pool, rather than evenings in central Luxor. Booking.com and Tripadvisor guests repeatedly praise the welcoming staff, help arranging excursions and meals. The grounds are a stronger draw than the basic rooms, and the overall package offers good value.
The compromise is uneven upkeep. Recent Booking.com guests mention uncomfortable mattresses, tired equipment and occasional plumbing problems; Expedia feedback also raises cleanliness and room-condition concerns, although other guests report clean, comfortable stays. Plan transport for East Bank outings, and don’t count on strong Wi-Fi. We’d skip it if polished rooms, dependable maintenance or a central location matter more than friendly service and pool time.

Best for: value-minded West Bank sightseers; travelers wanting staff help with excursions; quiet garden and pool breaks
Watch out for: uneven room upkeep and mattress comfort; transport needed for central Luxor; modest Wi-Fi ratings; no elevator
Location: Quiet West Bank base for tombs and temples; less convenient for central Luxor evenings.
Rooms: Basic air-conditioned rooms; recent guests flag mattresses, dated equipment and plumbing issues.
Cleanliness: Mixed evidence: many positive reports, but Booking.com and Expedia scores suggest inconsistent standards.
Service: The strongest feature: welcoming staff and helpful excursion arrangements recur across sites.
Amenities: Outdoor pool, garden, restaurant and breakfast; Wi-Fi is available but receives weaker guest ratings.
Fees and surprises: Expedia lists breakfast included and free nearby parking; no elevator, cots or extra beds.
