Hotel Location
Often referred to as the “world’s greatest open-air museum” the city of Luxor was once the ancient city of Thebas and as such has retained much of its historical buildings and monuments with many dating back from that time. The city is spread out across the Nile with an Eastern and a Western Bank boasting many impressive sights to visit, most famously the Valley of Kings/Queens, the Colossi of Memnon, Tombs of Nobles and the Mummification Museum to name but a few. For those looking for all the shops you will find quite a memorable experience with many local shops selling souvenirs, clothing and local crafts situated along the banks of the river and for even more there are also several large markets held where you can buy all the produce you need and much more.
