I have stayed at the Emilio in the past and have enjoyed it especially for the pool which is a real blessing in the 110 degree heat. I booked again for this recent trip via the internet and was still able to get the $30 a night rate. Anyway, I arrived to find the hotel under complete re-construction. There is... more

Stayed at this hotel during December 2007 with me partner. Hotel is fairly new and clean. The place has a septic feel to it and is always shining. The girls that work there are very hard working and make sure your rooms are tidy and clean. Every morning they used to make fancy art work with the towels, very impressive.... more

Hotel has a good location near the towns center. We had a nice view to the Luxor temple and Nile, over the near buildings (we were on the 6th floor). Hotels location is also one of the minuses. It's right in the corner of Luxors busiest roads, so the noise of traffic is quite loud. Cars use their horns only... more

We recently stayed for a week at the Emilo. The hotel is very cheap and you get a lot for your money. The rooms are small but very clean, and the bathroom was good. Reception area was always very busy, lots of tour groups. The rooftop pool was nice with wonderful views over Luxor temple and the Nile. The breakfast... more

I have stayed in this hotel on many occasions and normally book direct, however it was cheaper this time to book via travel republic. On this stay though the manager demanded £10 in cash upon my arrival, firstly intimating that if I wanted a good room then I should make the extra payment, then when I questioned that he said... more

Me and the wife tend to visit Egypt once a year and tend to stay in Luxor; we have stayed in several hotels over the years within Luxor, and enjoy our stay what with the lovely weather and cheap prices. We have stayed in the Emilio before, but on this occasion when we checked in and unpacked in our room,... more

Small hotel but very central. Would be a 2* by European standards - rooms ensuite, with TV, but no mini-bar, nor shampoos and other "extras" you'd find even in an Ibis. The bathroom is marble, but the shower curtain, and room decor dated - and the shower head came off. Internet cafe just round the corner which is very useful,... more

We have just returned from a week at the Emilio hotel and the main thing that stood out was the location!!! It is right in the city centre and with a view overlooking the Nile and Luxor temple. The hotel is fairly basic but has everything that you will need for a week. The swimming pool on the roof is... more
