Nile Valley Restaurant — Egyptian / International, Luxor
Nile Valley Restaurant is located on the West bank of the river Nile, within its hotel premises, offering panoramic river views and views of Luxor Temple that are truly intriguing. The west bank of the Nile at Luxor is the side of the dead in ancient Egyptian cosmology — the Valley of the Kings and the Valley of the Queens are on this side — and eating here with the east bank temples illuminated across the water provides a dining experience of extraordinary historical and aesthetic power.
The cooking serves Egyptian and international dishes with the accessible quality that the west bank’s tourist community and the local population both require: the Egyptian mezze and grilled preparations alongside the international options that visitors from across the world expect.
The drinks programme includes the fresh juices, the sugarcane juice, and the Egyptian tea that the Nile Valley dining tradition demands.
Nile Valley Restaurant is the Luxor dining experience for those who want to sit on the side of the dead and look across the Nile at the side of the living, with the temples and the sunset providing the most extraordinary dining backdrop on earth.
