Hotels near Luxor

Luxor is a city in Upper Egypt. Luxor had a population of 284,952 in 2023, with an area of 43.0 km2 (16.6 sq mi) and is the capital of the Luxor Governorate. Nicknamed the City of a Hundred Gates or the City of the Sun and formerly known as Thebes, Luxor was one of the capitals of Ancient Egypt. The city is among the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world.

291 hotels within 5km of Luxor in Luxor Governorate, Egypt, with nightly rates from around EGP 22 to EGP 8,346 (averaging EGP 1,137), including 55 properties rated 4 stars or higher. The closest is SWEET HOSTEL LUXOR, about 0.2km away.

The essential choice in Luxor is which bank of the Nile to sleep on. The East Bank, where the city proper and Luxor and Karnak temples sit, is where most hotels cluster and where evenings feel liveliest — souks, corniche restaurants, and easy access to the train station and airport road. The West Bank, facing the Valley of the Kings and Queens and the mortuary temples, is quieter and greener, with smaller guesthouses rather than big hotel blocks; it suits travellers who want to wake up close to the tombs before the day's heat and coach parties arrive, at the cost of a river crossing to reach East Bank nightlife and transport links.

Of the 291 hotels our data covers, 58 are within a short walk — under 1km — of central Luxor, and this cluster is worth paying attention to: it puts you within easy reach of the temple complexes and the corniche on foot, cutting out taxi negotiations for your first and last day. Just over half the total properties, 55, are rated 4-star or higher, so quality options aren't scarce, but they're spread across both banks and various distances, not concentrated only in the walkable core — meaning the closest hotel to the sights isn't automatically the smartest one.

Luxor works well as a two-to-three-night base for temple-hopping and river excursions, and it's also the natural staging point if you're combining a Nile itinerary with the pyramids and Sphinx near Cairo, which lie a separate onward journey away rather than a day trip.
