I’ve finally gathered reviews and comments about Mara House and our Salahadeen Restaurant here on my own website. There aren’t many for Salahadeen, as it’s been open only to Mara House guests for years and TripAdvisor has since removed those reviews. These come from TripAdvisor, Google Maps, guest blogs, letters, and other kind words shared over time. Some are missing, as I hadn’t realized TripAdvisor began deleting reviews from tour guests who did their tours with us but who didn’t stay at Mara House. I hope these words give you a true sense of who we are and what Mara House is all about. Enjoy, Mara
"We stayed at Mara House last November 2008, and although we are very late adding our review, Mara House has remained in our minds and hearts all this time as one of the best experiences of our adventure in Egypt. We arrived tired and overwhelmed after the culture shock of Cairo and the dreadful trip on the 1st class day train (I don't recommend it - take the sleeping train!). Mara, Saiid and her staff welcomed us like we were friends returned. Immediately we felt at home, relaxed and cared for.
The stay at Mara House really saved us and turned our trip around into a more positive and enjoyable experience.
Mara and Saiid also helped us in our attempts to find music and dance in Luxor, which was a challenging task but they did their best and thanks to them I was successful in getting a dance lesson.
Our teenage daughter Salome also enjoyed the stay in Luxor and felt safe and welcomed at Mara House.
If I return to Luxor I will definitely stay at Mara House again, and I have recommended it to all other travellers that I hear are going to Luxor."
