Gaddis Hotel

We were placed in a tiny room right on the street with incredible amount of street noise, not that clean and a broken shower. There were clearly many other rooms available. The staff is friendly and the breakfast adequate but unfortunately the excessive noise, smoke, uncleanliness and lack of working facilities made this a lackluster stay.

We were given room 115. It looked liked a cleaners room. Totally opposite to what we saw in the photos. I recommend Hotels.com to inspect the property and ask them to justify what they promote and what we were offered matches? We asked for bath towels 3 times and waited for 2 5 hours with kids. Even had to ask toilet paper post room service. It's a Rip off. Worst hotel we ever stayed in. The price should be $19 a night. Should get full refund. We couldn't sleep. Such a shame. Not even 1 star. Should be a -10 star rating. Pathetic and waste of time and money. Very sad.

I recently stayed at Gaddis Hotel in Luxor, and I had a truly wonderful experience. The breakfast was fantastic, there were plenty of options every morning, and they prepared fresh omelets and fresh falafel for all guests. The chefs were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the whole dining experience feel just like home. Another highlight is the location, it’s right next to the Nile River, which makes evening and early-morning walks absolutely beautiful and relaxing. Overall, I would definitely recommend this hotel. Great food, warm hospitality, and a perfect location by the Nile make it a wonderful place to stay in Luxor.

Everything was ok except it was so noisy from the hotel cross from us and honking sound from outside which we should have asked to change the room. Breakfat was great.

The only good thing about this hotel was the location, however once we checked in, we left asap because we found a cockroach in the curtains… a flying one too. We’re not picky travelers and we like to stay at economically friendly place but would not stay at a place with roaches or bed bugs. Pay a little extra to stay across the street at Pyramisa or somewhere else. I wouldn’t recommend this place as we couldn’t even complete our stay

After a 10-hr overnight bus ride from Cairo, we arrived at the Gaddis in the late morning and we were able to check into our room. Sandra, the receptionist was very attentive and welcoming. Our room was spacious, bright, clean, nice double bed and with a nice small balcony looking to the pool. Within a few minutes we received a tray with complementary tea and coffee and an electric kettle. We were able to have something to eat at the restaurant, served by the manager, Mohamed, and the waiter Ala, who treated us very well and tended to our every need. The next morning we had a great breakfast - delicious falafel, omelette made by chef Salah. The breakfast had good choices of tahini, yogourt, bread, etc. The service at this hotel is excellent from the front desk, to the security and cleaning staff. The hotel is about a 30-min walk to the tourist area of Luxor across from the Luxor temple. There are plenty of taxis and horse carriages along the road! The only negative at the Gaddis is the wifi. It does not reach the rooms and can only be accessed in the lobby and even there it is limited. The Gaddis is a good option in Luxor.

very comfortable hotel, nice staff,

Business trip

At first I was a little bit surprised - refrigerator from 70-s, plumbing from 70-s and a little bit leaking. But they did not make problems. Step by step I immersed in a good old-fashioned stay - the room was comfortable, it had a balcony (where I could drink tea and coffee) with a good view to another balconies and to swimming pool. The water in the pool was cold but why not to refresh in the heat. The door of my room led to a veranda, it was pleasant to go out on the veranda in the mornings. The breakfast was good. The staff was always friendly.

Stayed here for 3 days while exploring Luxor. Unfortunately the locals of Luxor made us not want to leave the hotel - it is impossible to take more than 1 step outside the door without being harassed to buy something, or ride in a chariot or taxi, and this harassment continues constantly. Perhaps the hotel could ask the locals not to harass the guests immediately outside the hotel. We tried breakfast once but did not have it again during our stay - would have been nice to have fresh fruit. The bathroom leaks badly, the bathroom floor becomes a swimming pool. The beds were comfortable enough, and the cleaning staff did a good job with the daily turndown service. Free WiFi in the room. Room was affordable and this is reflected in the quality. The hotel is in the shade of other buildings night and day so it is very cold when we stayed, however there is heating in the room. The outdoor pool is also in the shade, we did not witness anyone using it. The speakers for the prayer announcements early morning and late afternoons must be near the hotel as this was very loud in the room. When we were selecting this hotel, it showed on Maps as on the Nile River, and this was the reason for our selection. However the hotel is not on the Nile River, and there is no access to the Nile on foot in the nearby vicinity. If we were to visit Luxor again, we would pay a higher price for a higher quality hotel.

Looks like this hotel was once pretty posh but it's past it's prime. We found it comfortable and good value for the money. Pretty good location in a quieter part of town. Room size was very spacious. Housekeeping was a little sloppy. Breakfast was decent with an omelet bar. If you have mobility challenges be aware the elevator is up a few steps from the lobby.

A great place to stay in Luxor for a few nights. The hotel itself is walkable from town (about 20 mins) and the staff are super friendly and helpful. Would not hesitate to stay again.

The hotel is clean and great for its price. Staff are nice and I really loved the smile of the receptionist. Need just to improve internet in rooms. In general I recommend this hotel. I will be back soon

Great family run hotel with friendly staff in great location... highly recommended

Mr Gaddis is very nice. The hotel is well located and my room facing the pool was quiet and didn't have any road noise. The free breakfast is plentiful and the service was excellent. The room was comfortable including a strong a/c; cold fridge, and good balcony. This is an older hotel and was perfect for my stay.

We chose this hotel because it had wifi but when we got there the WiFi wasn’t working , the hotel itself wasn’t to clean, the walls are dirty, I will say the doorman was the only person trying to help us. I would recomend this hotel.

Cheap hotel in need of an update, people were very friendly

Nice hotel staff very nice i love to go there again

After reading other reviews, I wonder what people expect in Egupt and in Luxor. There is nothing very new here. Even the Hilton in Cairo has "tough" bathroom fixtures and an occassional leaky faucet. The Gaddis, where I've stayed four years back, is typically Egyptian. Sometimes they don't understand what you want, but almost always try hard. Enjoy the country as it is and stop expecting Miami Beach.

They didnot trust we already paid the hotel stay before we came, because we paid at hotel.com. It took us almost one hour to get to the room because it was a mess to find the key to the "private parking".
