Yasmine Guest House^★★★

Yasmine Guest House

Yasmine Guest House has the shortest facility list in this guide. A pool, a terrace, breakfast, free parking, air conditioning, private bathrooms, WiFi. No restaurant, no bar, no spa, no room service, no tour desk. That is eleven items in total, where the other houses here list forty to a hundred and twenty.

It scores 9.2 from 395 reviews anyway, and the breakdown shows what carries it. Staff is 9.7 and value for money 9.5. The reviews name Nasser again and again, and one guest calls it the best guest house he has stayed in.

The address is Ramla Street in Gezirat Al Bairat, and Happiness Guest House stands 105 metres away, the closest pair in this guide. Luxor Museum is 1.9 km off and Luxor Temple 2.1 km, both across the water. On this side the Colossi of Memnon are 3.8 km, Medinet Habu 4.9 km and the Valley of the Kings 6 km. There are two restaurants within 500 metres.

There are three kinds of room: two 30 m2 deluxe rooms, one double and one twin, plus a one-bedroom apartment whose floor area Booking does not publish. All have air conditioning and a private bathroom. Rooms start at 25 euros. WiFi scores 7.6, the lowest figure anywhere in this guide and more than a point below the next worst, so do not plan to work from here.
