The
Al Moudira hotel is an absolutely unique palace located on the West
bank of the Nile - the side of the Nile where Egypt’s most
breathtaking antique sites lie. Between the Nile and the mountains,
Al Moudira is just a few minutes away (4km) from the Valley of the
Kings. This is where the most famous pharaohs – Ramses II,
Toutankhamon, Seti 1st - were laid to rest.

Located
just 20 minutes away from the international airport of Luxor, and the
Royal Valley Golf Club, Al Moudira offers a unique place to stay in
exceptional surroundings. A 15-minute taxi ride will take you across
the Nile bridge leaving behind the city hubbub of Luxor dropping you off
in the peaceful Egyptian countryside - a setting that hasn’t changed
much since David Roberts’ days. The more romantic or adventurous
traveller might prefer to take the small colourful boats, or the ferry
that crosses the Nile day and night, and then a taxi to reach the
hotel.
The ochre-coloured outer walls of the Al Moudira hotel encircles a
luxuriant eight-hectare garden with a swimming pool, an oasis in the
desert. The hotel lies on the borderland where the cultivated fields
end and the desert begins. Sugar cane growers across the way tend their
fields with donkeys and camels just as their ancestors have done for
thousands of years. The whole place exudes a wonderful feeling of peace
and tranquillity. |
