When we booked we asked for a balcony view, on arrivalwe got room 102 which did not have one, on asking at reception about the mistake we where moved within 5 minutes of asking to room 401.
The veiws of the Nile where astounding, and you could see all the across the Nile to Queen Hatchepsups Temple, and also the veiws from the roof top pool where fantastic as well. The hotel was by far kept clean and tidy to a very high standard, the food was great but choice can be limited.
The hotel location to us was great, not to far from most places but the taxis or the kalesh drivers where very cheap anyway. The hotel staff where marvelous they could not do enough for you, the only entertainment is an Egyption night on Saturdays, which was quite good.
Our overall opinion of our stay in the St Joseph Hotel would be to rate it up from its 3-star to 4-star, because all the staff from the owner to the cleaners made our stay memorable

We arrived in the early hours of the morning and the staff were very pleasant,inviting and helpful in every way. Our bags were unloaded and taken up to our rooms while we checked in.
Rooms were of a good size and spotless! Every room has a view of the Nile which is spectacular. Food is so cheap and such a variety which also takes great. And the view from the roof top bar and swimming pool is amazing.

St Josephs hotel Luxor I recommend a visit we arrived in January with no hotel booked, we have in the past used the hotels facilities. But not stayed there. Our taxi pulled up outside and the reception staff recognized us immediately they went out of their way to make room for us.
The rooms were basic but spotlessly clean.
Staff very polite.
The rooftop pool is great has a fantastic view of the Nile plus it is heated this is a great hotel for budget travel.

Just got back from a week at the St Joseph Hotel in Luxor & we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
Firstly, the hotel:
A little old but otherwise good.
The staff are extremely friendly & hugely attentive. Quite literally, you will be treated as a precious commodity. When we first arrived, our bags were taken from us from the bus & taken up to our room while we checked in. A Safety Deposit box was purchased for the exorbitant sum of

What a gem of an hotel. The staff are wonderfull, especially George the waiter in the roof top bar who constantly smiles. Food and service were excellent. The hotel is a bit of a walk from the centre of things but worth it. No entertainment except two bars. We would definately go back to this hotel again.

St Jo's is an excellent Hotel.
The staff are very attentive and very friendly.
The rooms are very clean, and some days you go back to your room and they have made your towels into an animal e.g. snake, swan etc - The kids really loved this.
The restaurant has great food and service. Even for those that don't experiment with the local dishes, there is something for everyone.
The roof has the pool - great - around 1 pm everyday a breeze came off the Nile and it was very welcome.
The food served on the roof was wonderful, they do a mean cheese omelletts at lunchtime, and in the evening try the banana chicken delicious.
You can watch the sunrise and set from the roof top and you can watch the world go by while you sit and relax by the pool. The pool was immaculately kept it was cleaned properly everyday.
Entertainment - well the disco in the basement is small, but if you fancy trying out your belly dancing this is it.
Once a week they have an Egyptian night, which is good value, be prepared to join in.
We were only at St Jo's for a week, and I must admit to not wanting to leave, I was also very touched when quite a few of the staff, came out and waved us off when we left.
If you are looking for luxury go elsewhere - If you are looking for value for money in a clean safe environment, where you will be treated like a VIP all the time then St Jo's is the place to go.

St josephs hotel in luxor is basic clean comfortable accomodation in a good location in luxor.
Rooms were a good size with a small balcony with fantasic views over the nile. The bathroom was also a good size with shower. The rooms were cleaned daily with fresh towels etc. there was aircon included (bit rattly) & you could get a mini fridge if required for an extra fee(we didnt bother).
The hotel has a small reception area with shops attatched (good value jewellery shop) the best bit about st jos was the rooftop terrace with fantastic views over the nile & to valley of the kings.
It has a small clean pool & some sunbeds (always enough) & loads of tables with a cafe/bar. The staff up there were brilliant very friendly & helpful & service excellent. In fact all the hotel staff were brilliant & couldnt do enough for you at all times.
Breakfast was buffet style & although not to my taste there was always loads of fresh bread rolls to fill up on & staff again v good.
We didnt eat in the resteraunt for a night meal but heard good reports from other guests.
The rooftop cafe had all sorts of meals & snacks at very reasonable prices.
As we didnt eat in the restraunt at night i cant really comment on entertainment as we didnt see any of it.
The hotel is in a good location only a short walk away to other resteraunts,a couple of bars & perfect for exploring luxor temple & all the other fantastic sights of luxor.
We cant recommend this place highly enough as value for money (we got a vvv cheap deal for 14 nights) if you want to go posh you can always spend your nights at some of the five star hotels nearby but st jos was very comfortable, had all we needed & the staff fantastic.
