The hotel is clean, the facilities basic, but if you are out most of the day, it is surely enough. A basic breakfast was included in the price I paid, around $12 US per night. WiFi internet is available for free in the breakfast area, in other areas the reception is not so good, as there is only one router.... More

Mr. Magdi, the owner, has obviously been around. He's very helpful, courteous, but as in most of the other reviews, the almighty $$ rules everything. He offered the price we were looking for, not wanting breakfast, but then tried to up the rate by breakfast suddenly included for only 20LE more. We refused. I found his bicycle rentals, tours, and... More

I spent around eight days at Fontana Hotel and was very happy, secure and comfortable. The location is great, mid-way between the Nile and the train station, with plenty of good restaurants nearby, and I liked the friendly neighbourhood. Mr Magdi and his family were all very helpful and made me feel welcome. I found the mix of guests, both... More

I think this hotel is far too expensive for what you get, the owner will charge as much as he thinks he can get away with. (I think people who like this hotel don't realise they are being overcharged by the owner. His prices are certainly not competitive!) We bargained a lot - you have to with this owner even... More

I stayed at Fontana Luxor Hotel for two nights and was incredibly impressed with the service and the dedication of Mr. Magdi and his son, Mahmoud Magdi. Mahmoud is very energetic and will work with you to see everything in Luxor for an affordable price but also quality experience. The hot air balloon trip they arranged was well organized, timely...

The place itself is comfortable enough with its air conditioning. (even though the sheets were dirty and the shower room temperature). But what's annoying is the sly owner Magdi. We saw him at the train station and he quoted prices which changed by the time he drove us to the hotel. He waited till our bags were in the rooms... More
