Al Moudira

Luxor , Egypt


NEED TO KNOW

  • 54 spacious, air-conditioned rooms and suites, each individually decorated
  • Close to the Valley of the Kings
  • Relaxed, intimate pool area with shaded Pavilion serving drinks and light snacks
  • Oasis of greenery surrounded by the desert
  • Activities include adventure trips in the desert on bicycles, horses, donkeys or camels
  • Ideal for individuals, families or small groups seeking a peaceful retreat close to the bustling town of Luxor. 

THE HOTEL
Set in a tranquil oasis, between the desert's edge and the fertile green fields of the West Bank of the Nile, Al Moudira is a hugely impressive boutique property. Creating the property was a three year labour of love for owner Zeina Aboukheir, and it shows. No stone has been left unturned in creating a masterpiece of authenticity, where domed roofs, soaring arches, columns, canopies and arabesques are amongst an array of features inspired by the palaces and villas of Egypt and the Middle East.

The hotel is surrounded by elegant, enclosed gardens with fountains, terraces and an abundance of wild flowers beyond.

We recommendWe love Al Moudira's Turkish Bath experience. With walls lined entirely in cool, white marble and the air scented with sandalwood and orange flowers, the perfect way to discover Eastern relaxation.

Best time to be there

Winter (October to April) for cultural trips, although May to September is great for the Red Sea. Ramadan is a particularly exciting time to be in Egypt - it is celebrated here with more exuberance than anywhere else in the world.
