Telephone: 10-0032–9991

Remember that rates are less expensive in summer—late April to the end of September—though Luxor has less dramatic variations than Aswan since tourism is strong year-round.

Almost all hotels include breakfast in their rates, and some offer meal plans. Most hotels arrange transportation from airport to hotel if requested.

If you choose to stay at a place that doesn't have a pool, be aware that many hotels open their pools to non-guests for a small fee (around £E50). In Luxor, the Sheraton is on a peninsula extending into the Nile, and the Hilton has a peaceful Nile-side garden and pool.

Nefertiti Hotel

$ | El Sahabi St., Luxor, Egypt Fodor's Choice

The Nefertiti Hotel ticks every essential travel box—clean rooms with comfortable beds, enviable central location, no-request-is-too-much service, and a top-notch rooftop restaurant—and it all comes at an unbeatable price. This small family-owned hotel is Luxor's best midrange stay, but even if you're overnighting elsewhere, it's worth stopping by to dine upstairs or at one of the tables in the alleyway—a people-watching extravaganza—or to ask about tours to the temples, the West Bank, and beyond.

Beit Sabee Guesthouse

Overlooking Medinet Habu, this charming guesthouse in a three-story mudbrick house is decked out in colorful Nubian textiles and traditional decor. It's run by Nour El Nil, which operates excellent dahabiya (traditional sailboat) cruises on the Nile that are once-in-a-lifetime experiences.
