Great location, a peaceful oasis in a busy city. Lovely staff providing excellent service. Fascinating to understand the history of the hotel and pleased that this is recognised.

The hotel has continued to get better and better over the years. (Well, maybe not the elevators..) The staff continues to be gracious and welcoming. I'm a bit concerned about Mandarin Oriental's plans for the hotel. Will they respect its heritage? I don't want them to modernize it to the point that the colonial-era atmosphere is lost.

Although our time in Luxor was not our favorite, the Winter Palace was the highlight. The staff were amazing, the grounds stunning, and the room dreamy. It felt old fashioned in an old-money, step back in time sort of way. We were utterly charmed.

Our reception was not as warm or welcoming as we have come to expect from other Sofitels around the world. Also although we booked a basic room the room we were given was very poor despite being a platinum and lately gold Accor member for many years. The room (336) was in poor condition- the air conditioning did not function properly, the furniture was poorly maintained, the wardrobe door handle was broken and useless and when we wanted to go to breakfast in the morning the room door lock broke and we were delayed until a maintenance worker could attend to fix it as we could not leave the room with an open door. All of this is far below the standard we have come to expect from Sofitel. When I discussed this with reception staff they did act swiftly to find another room for us that was much improved. Apart from the initial welcome all other staff were friendly, courteous and very helpful. We stayed for 5 nights and used the Royal Bar, the pool restaurant, the Terrace bar and the Corniche restaurant. All provided very good service, well presented and enjoyable food and drinks. Housekeeping was excellent, thorough and unobtrusive. Reception were very helpful in organising a late checkout for us as we had a late afternoon flight from Luxor. Overall the experience was good but the initial issues should have been addressed before we arrived.
