Some of the people in my tour group decided that it would be fun to have a nice dinner in Luxor at the beautiful old Winter Palace Hotel. If anything, it's a great excuse to get inside and poke around this posh hotel. There are actually several restaurants in the hotel and I can't tell you the name of the one we dined in, but hang a right in the lobby and head all the way to the end of the hall, it was on the righthand side. Dim lighting, music, not crowded. The table settings were beautiful and we took up two large tables with our group. It only cost about $20 for drinks and several courses. The food was good but not great. You really pay for the ambience and the chance to see inside this historic hotel.

Thie dining room of the hotel was classic old-fashioned and rather elegant at one time. The food was quite good and well served. The room was comfortable as far as temperature goes, which is important in Egypt's climate.
