There's a lot of mixed reviews on here, but we absolutely loved it! Staff were so friendly and the Nile view was simply fantastic. Not your typical western 4-star, but filled with character and a beautiful pool area. Would definitely stay again.

Great value hotel in a great location - only a short walk to the Luxor Temple, Luxor Museum and Nile River promenade. Our room had a balcony overlooking the Nile and we watched hot air balloons flying over West Bank early one of the mornings. We ordered room service, used laundry service, had drinks at the bar and got a massage. Everything was great! The hotel is a bit outdated but we liked our room with high ceilings. Special shout out to the spa for a great massage experience and to the concierge who organized a private sunset felucca ride for us, highly recommend both! :)

I love this property. We got rooms on the river. Beautiful view. A little noisy however. So if you are staying here, bring yourself some earplugs that should solve the problem. The rooms are clean, I'm in the beds and the bed linings are fantastic. The bathroom is large and has a great shower. A little bit on the big side to get in if you have nobility problems. Overall, I loved this place

The staff team was amazing!
The restaurant and breakfast was perfect and delicious!
The view of the Nile river was wonderful!
Only think that was unfortunately bad experience was the taxi that we took close to the hotel! We got robbed and got left in an unknown place! It was scary due to the fact that we were from another country and didn't know anything!
My recommendation is do not take any taxi in that area!

The hotel was in a good location. Too many people hassled us the moment we stepped foot off the hotel property. Even on the property a member of the hotel staff was very pushy about trying to get us to sign up for a massage.

Great option with view to the Nile. Walkable distance to/from train station. Best pool of 4 hotels we used in Egypt. Beer is cold at the pool restaurant!

Good stay at Eatabe - hotel is centrally located and perfect for a stay in Luxor. Staff are lovely and nothing was too much trouble. We did have a leak in our bathroom but fixed immediately after reporting. The door is good, but I wish that the deserts were a little better and ice cream would have been a nice option to have. We also found here that the bread was very sweet - as it appears to be all over Egypt - too much so for our taste and we ended up adding salt!

This property is centrally located between the Luxor, temple and Karnak temple. However, it is completely worn out. The entire facility has been used and abused to the ground as if it was an extremely old rental car that was sold to a taxi company that intern used it until the wheels fell off. That’s pretty get kindly.
4.0
The entire staff is friendly and accommodating, from the security area to the service personnel, etc.
Unfortunately, the English skills are lacking in some cases.
The breakfast is typical and good for Egyptian hotels. What was missing was more fresh fruit. The selection was quite limited.
The hotel is older but well-maintained and clean!
What I didn't like was that Expedia advertised multiple restaurants, but during our stay, only one was open. The hotel's Wi-Fi is an absolute disaster. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. The rooms are not soundproof. Even with closed rooms facing the Nile, you can hear the street traffic loudly and clearly.
Our vacation was good, and the hotel is recommended. For people who are light sleepers, I recommend taking rooms at the back, even if the Nile is not visible then.

The hotel was very nice. Breakfast was super delicious. The only minor problem was that the air conditioner didn’t work very well

The Hotel was very clean. We did not feel uncomfortable with the cleanliness at any time. The rooms are dated, but still in very good condition and well-maintained. The pool is great and a big selling feature for this hotel. One of the concierges Wael consistently goes above and beyond, and should be commended for his efforts. By far the best staff member we encountered at this hotel. The location was good and the hotel felt safe. The moment we walked into the hotel, arriving from the airport, before even checking in, a man approached us with pamphlets speaking about the massage services offered at the hotel spa. We politely declined and took his pamphlet and went to check in. Within about an hour of arriving in our room, we get a phone call from this man on our hotel room phone, once again pressuring us to come to the spa for one of the massages. I found this was quite inappropriate to cold-call guests in their room. Over the span of the next four days of our stay, we were approached by this man approximately 10 more times when visiting the lobby and pool area. Every time, there seemed to be some gimmick or discount (but these seemed to change every day). Every time, we politely declined. I found this was very pushy and inappropriate to be taking place within the walls of an established hotel. The breakfast-essentially we were charged 250 each, to later find out the price was 180. Difference refunded but then found out it was actually 150. The restaurant is scamming guests

DO NOT BOOK THIS HOTEL - THEY WILL STEAL YOUR MONEY! I should have read the reviews in this thread, it has happened to different people already. They charge you 2 or 3 times in your cards by telling you that they do not get paid by the booking system so they ask for your card (or another card in my case) to pay (AGAIN!) for the stay.
Suffice to day they have been playing dumb since I contacted them to explain the problem - they dont recognize the payments.
I didn't think an established "hotel" would do that as well - we experienced a lot of scamming and robbery in Luxor; EVERY person in Luxor is trying to steal from you in one way or another - sadly this hotel does the same. I cannot even advice to stay somewhere else, as all of Luxor seemed to operate in scams and cheating. The only thing I can advise is "DO NOT GO THERE" - or if you must, go with a fully booked and paid Tour so you do not need to deal with this disgusting situation.

So this place is a throwback to the 70’s. The rooms are not bad. The location is perfect. The only thing I’ll say is the staff need some serious training on how to cater to westerners. Especially with alcoholic drinks. Other than that I really don’t have any complaints.

Overall a large nice hotel. Friendly staff, great service and great location right across the Nile.
Issues we had were with extremely weak shower pressure and beyond horrible wifi. Barely ever connected and required you to re-enter disposable codes relentlessly. It wasn't even a secure connection, so I really don't get it. Also the heat in our room didn't work, but they gave us an amazing portable heater that worked great.

The hotel is well located and the rooms have a nice balcony over looking the Nile. Service was good and the rooms were clean. However the Wi-Fi Is bad other than in the lobby and the listing said a gym was available close by which the hotel said did not exist.

It is true the property is dated. But my room was clean, the ac worked fine, the bathroom had a comfortable tub and i had everything i needed. The location could not have been better. The breakfast was very good. I got the half board but only ate dinner there once. Next time i would only get breakfast there.

The Aracan is really a gem in Luxor. Conveniently located next to the Luxor Temple and overlooking the Nile River, its location is great and room is quiet. My room was really spacious, clean and bright - just as I wanted. The check-in receptionist was nice also to upgrade my booking from normal room to a river view room which has a cute balcony. The hotel also was so generous to allow me to check out late and hang around in the lobby until my evening flight.
Aracan really is 5 stars, and great great value for money for its price. Hotels staffs and crew were very professional, nice, curious and helpful. Super highly recommended!
Suggestion : Request for Non smoking rooms are possible.
