Jewel Howard Carter Hotel

Very nice hotel. Everything is spotlessly clean and works. Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Great breakfast spread.

The chef in this hotel is top notch….The food is bursting with delicate and delicious flavours…all the veg is grown here in their lush organic garden. I’m very fussy with food and so far this is the best I have eaten in Egypt. I had the set menu with grilled seabass in lemon butter sauce and it was cooked to melt in the mouth perfection. Plenty of veggie options too….the moussaka is also superb…The restaurant also has wonderful ambience…outdoors overlooking the pool and Nile in the distance with a beautiful hand carved wooden pergola and choice of normal or sofa seating ….Its definately worth the slightly higher price tag….Im here for a few weeks in Luxor and will be eating dinner here in a regular basis…Compliments to the Howard Carter chef!

We stayed at the Jewel Howard Carter for two nights and had an absolutely fantastic experience. It’s in a beautiful spot, across the river from the center of Luxor, and very easy to get to and from the main historic sites. The Valley of the Kings is a short drive away, and to get to Karnak and Luxor temples is an easy boat ride. The staff at the hotel are extremely welcoming and helpful. The receptionist Azza did a great job arranging our visit to the tourist sites and generally making sure we had a good stay, and the service staff were great both in the mornings and the evenings. The restaurant onsite serves delicious food, a lot of which comes from the hotel’s own garden. Strongly recommend this place!
