East bank hotel
The Nile valley hotel is a small hotel on the East bank. When you're coming off the pond, going to the east bank you can’t miss it. It’s bright green. It’s a small and good hotel. Although the beds are quite hard. It’s a cosy and friendly hotel. It doesn’t have much rooms, but the're are planning on rebuilding the restaurant to a floor with hotel rooms which is on top of the existing building and putting the restaurant on top of that. The people working there, are friendly too.
Unique Quality: The rooms are big enough, It holds two separate beds, two small tables and a closet and of course a bathroom with a shower, toilet.
Opinion of Price: less expensive than average

I think what you are looking for is Stars by Michael. I can't find a direct link but the following website give some info.
Luxor is situated in 670 km to the south from Cairo and 70 km to the South from Qina (Qena). It has about 100 thousand inhabitants.
Luxor is located on the right bank of the Nile. Nowadays silent and small town it was referred as Thebes in days of the New Empire and it is considered that it was the capital of Egypt.
Numerous architectural monuments of Luxor are entered into the List of the world cultural heritage of UNESCO. Because of the historical value and wide popularity among tourists Luxor is allocated in an independent administrative unit.
Inhabited quarters last along the bank of the Nile. You may watch my 2 min 31 sec VIDEO-Clip on my personal YouTube channel: Egypt Luxor Downtown and Temple in April, 2007
Friendly Locals
by sue_stone
The Egyptian people were so friendly.....ok, many of them were friendly because they wanted us to buy something from them, but that was ok with me.
And they were so funny - always wanting to have a joke and a laugh.
We were warned against taking photos of the locals without asking....but I just couldn't resist sneaking this one of the guard....but I think he may have seen me!! And his hand was on his gun......I moved away quickly!
Still bright, after all these millennia!

Mayyyybe, just maybe, if you enlarge this picture you may see a hint of the standout hues which still adorn the bits of LUXOR TEMPLE ceiling here. Most of what we see as we walk the corridors and sandy paths of this temple area are faded to a range of similar reddish tones, but there are occasional painted pieces which continue to amaze our 21st century eyes!
the ancient and modern worlds meet in Luxor

You find yourself in Luxor, you visit the Luxor Temple here. It's just that simple. If you're here in summertime, you do all of your outdoor sightseeing in the morning, too, since the intense sun and desert heat will sap your very life from you if you're on the streets past noon. Well, almost.
The Nile at Luxor
by Kuznetsov_Sergey
Everybody knows that the Nile is the greatest river of the world. Even if there wouldn’t any sights on its banks, and I wouldn’t see Pyramids and Temples, the cruise over the Nile would have a great sense for me.
It is difficult to express the feeling covering you when, being on an upper deck, you understand, that the Great and Powerful Nile stretches in front of you. This feeling was one of the strongest among set of feelings which I have felt during my travel over Egypt.
For the first time it has happened, as soon as our ship left the mooring in Luxor. I was in the cabin at this time and almost missed the miracle. Having seen a leaving bank through the window of the cabin, I have run out on to the upper deck and have felt the happiness which has captured me with an evening breeze. It was fine!
The next three days I stayed on the upper deck many times before sunrises or during sunsets and admired the beauty of the Nile. I was admiring its wonder-working force, power and trying to understand reasons of appearing of the civilization on its banks. You may see more pics on my Travelogue
Q:Need info on Hot Air Balloon Riding "Hi,
Does anyone know the best (and most reputable) company that provides hot air balloon rides in Luxor at a reasonable price?..."
A: "$100 sounds reasonable to me, compared to other prices I've seen. I think I spent at least that much on a balloon ride in Tunesia several years ago. Personally, I'd be..."
