El Mesala Hotel
Gezira El Bairat, Al Ramla, West Bank, West bank, Luxor, Egypt – Excellent location - show map
We had an excellent stay at the El Mesala. It's the perfect place to stay for exploring Luxor. It's situated on the west bank of the Nile and small boats are available to hire in front of the hotel to take you over to the east bank. You get to see more of the real life of Egyptians on this bank. The view from my room was timeless. The hotel owner, Rakeem was a charming host who looked after us and we felt privileged to be invited back to his home to meet his family and eat supper with them. Rakeem introduced us to Ra who we employed to guide us around The Valley of the Kings and Queens. I was travelling with my Grandson who is studying Egyptology at university and the extremely knowledgable Ra was able to discuss the subject at a high level with him. Thank you El Mesala for an excellent stay
