This is a good option if you'd like to stay at a quiet place on the West Bank. The family is very kind, and your tourist money will make a direct impact. You'll be close enough to walk to several tombs/monuments, a longish walk but doable. The rooms are comfortable, family will prepare any meals you like.

The service, the people is amazing! Always with a smile and ready to assist you with anything you may need. Nasser is the best! You can ask him about tours or where to get a pill and he has the info at the tip of his fingers. I felt really safe and we'll take care. Since I made the reservation and Nasser him self went to pick me up. Amazing!!

The rooftop sitting area is very nice: as are the staff. I booked a tour through them of the West Bank, which was very good value.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Villa Kaslan is SO beautiful. I had no idea it was going to be as special as it is. Our apartment was large and spotlessly clean. The area it’s in is quiet but very safe to walk around. Nobody hassles you like on the other side of the river and the staff were absolutely amazing. The food was delicious and the pool incredibly clean. One night I was feeling unwell and the staff bought our food up to our roof terrace so we could eat up there in peace. I can’t believe how cheap the price is for the incredible quality of service you get.

    I could recommend this hostel for everyone. It is quite cheap, clean, with breakfast included into price and decent rooftop for rest or talk with other travellers. My room has very nice, big bathroom. The owner and his brother were very helpful and were able to resolve every problem. It is possible to order lunch, prepared with Egyptian lady. I felt there perfectly safe and taken care of.

    Clean family home. Safe and budget friendly. The owners are kind people. Close to archeological areas in Luxor. Just a quick note about the location: You might have need car because it’s not in the Luxor center, but there are ferries which can be 10-15 min walking distance. If you have car, you need to pass the bridges and it took 30-35 min to arrive Luxor city center.

    One of the best hostels I have ever tried. The staff was very nice and co-operative. They were so generous with the food,snacks and pretty much the whole service. They gave us a free ride from and back to the train station. The camp vibe is great and the decorations are amazing. Overall it was and exceptional experience
