Susanna Hotel Luxor

Susanna Hotel Luxor is a simple budget hotel on the Karnak side of the East Bank centre in Luxor, Egypt, in the Sheikh Zayed and Karnak Street area. The location is closer to Karnak Temple than the hotels around Luxor Temple, and it is a practical choice for visitors who want to start the day at Karnak or who prefer a more local neighbourhood setting. Luxor Temple, the Corniche and the main bazaar are a longer walk to the south, or a short taxi or calèche ride. The ferry to the West Bank can be reached by taxi. The hotel is a modest, functional building with a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, appealing to budget travellers, backpackers and independent visitors. The rooftop is the main shared space, with views over the surrounding neighbourhood. Room types include Singles and Doubles, and rooms are basic. Rates typically run about EGP 700-1,200 (around $14-24) per room per night, making it one of the lower-cost choices in the city. Amenities include a rooftop, wifi and a restaurant. Dining consists of breakfast and simple meals at the hotel, while the nearby streets have inexpensive local restaurants and small shops where visitors can find Egyptian staples such as ful, ta'amiya, koshari and grilled meats. There is no pool or spa, so guests rely on the rooftop to relax in the evening. Service is informal, with staff able to help arrange taxis, local guides, felucca rides and day trips to the West Bank, Dendera and Abydos. The hotel suits visitors who value low cost and proximity to Karnak over a central position beside Luxor Temple, and who are comfortable using short taxi rides for evening outings.
