Al Moudira is a luxury boutique property, situated on the West Bank of the Nile. It is a peaceful and stunning desert retreat away from the bustle of Luxor and is situated just outside a local village, giving guests a taste of rural Egyptian life.
Al Moudira is a unique treasure trove of furniture, artefacts and pieces of art that Zeina has sourced from souks, antiques markets and second hand shops all over the Arabic world
All of the rooms here are enormous with high ceilings - each one is unique in style and size
Its location across the River Nile from Luxor is both positive and negative - great if you want to get away from the bustle but if you want to get to town then you will need to take a boat or taxi
The pool is large and perfect for cooling off after a long day of sightseeing
Situated just outside Luxor and positioned between the Nile and the Theban Mountains, you will pass rustic villages and donkey-drawn carts loaded with harvested sugar cane as you approach the unique and beautifully decorated Al Moudira, which is set in an 8-hectare garden and is just four kilometres from the Valley of The Kings. The architecture, furnishings and design of Al Moudira have all been meticulously planned and executed to provide a sense of an Arabian retreat, and the abundant fruit trees, jasmine, hibiscus and palms which surround the hotel provide the perfect oasis.
Al Moudira’s 54 rooms and suites are all individually and beautifully furnished in a fusion of North African and French architecture. Hand painted murals adorn the walls and there is a sense here of being somewhere special and unique and away from the city hotels and tourist crowds. Whether it’s a French, Moroccan or Egyptian suite that you stay in, it will have been personally chosen for you by Zeina, your charming Franco-Lebanese host.
After you have finished a day’s sightseeing at one of Luxor’s magnificent monuments, you can relax by the beautiful swimming pool or enjoy the hammam and the Turkish bath. The combination of faultless service, palatial accommodation and sublime cuisine make Al Moudira an unforgettable experience.
