About this property
Hotel El Mesala offers a panoramic view across the Nile, opposite the great obelisk of the Luxor Temple. It features a swimming pool with a deck and sun loungers. It also has a rooftop restaurant and a large garden.
Being near the main ferry and providing you with motor boat moorings, El Mesala can help to set up trips to the heart of the Nile Region such as Abydos, Dendera, Aswann, or even the Red Sea or Cairo. You can round off the day at the bar or relax in the sunny sitting areas of the garden.
Free Wi-Fi, a minibar and a balcony are available in all air-conditioned rooms. Most of them provide you with views of the Nile River.
Continental breakfast is available in the morning. The restaurant offers a variety of dishes, both traditional Egyptian meals as well as European ones.
At night, Winter Palace and Luxor Temple are floodlit, allowing to take scenery pictures. There is a free shuttle to the airport, train and bus station. Valley of the Kings is 8 km away.
Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.3 for a two-person trip.
