My family and I stayed at the Sofitel Karnak for 2 weeks at the end of July 2008 and had a superb time. Accomodation The room was better than we expected and the a/c was teriffic as it was 40 in the shade!! Pool area and gardens were superb as was the free transport via bus or boat from the... more

We stayed for one week at the Sofitel Karnak. We were a party of 9. The rooms were impeccably clean and serviced everyday. Any problems were dealt with instantly. The food was plentiful and varied, anybody who is unalbe to find anythign to their liking is lying. The staff were helpful and would bring you any thing extra you wanted.... more

Thomsons claimed this hotel was 'peaceful' and aimed at 'older couples': In fact it is neither of these things - it is a noisy, grubby holiday complex with a vague Egyptian theme. I can only assume that other reviewers had a different brochure and very different expectations. Our room was small, dark and poorly cleaned with a constantly running toilet... more

Absolutely great hotel, large rooms, very clean and good location. Would definitely recommend this place to others. Booked a week's holiday through last minute.com for £299 each and thought there would be a catch but no problems, in fact it's been one of our favourite holidays ever! more

We have just returned from a holiday in Luxor, spending the first week on the nile cruise on Magic II and then a week at the Sofitel hotel. After spending a week on the boat and being provided with envelopes and letters advising us what tips to leave the staff the hotel was a great relief. The room was lovely,... more

My daughter (13 years) and I went to this hotel for 1 week 21/7 - 28/7. We had a lovely time and I would recommend this hotel to most people. I had read up on this hotel via this site and took care to lock away all valuables in the FREE safe - even my daughters GHDs! I had read... more

We have just returned from a week at the Sofitel Karnak and overall we really enjoyed our stay. With some common sense you can have a really good time. For example, the hotel offers a free digital safe in the room which is easy to use and will prevent any of your items going missing. The resort itself is probably... more
