We had a very good stay. The room was clean and big. Guest house is 3 Min walking from ferry. We take a boat to nubian village Ghurb Soleil, highly recomended. We ate in the guest house restaurant, the food was delicious. All the staff very nice people, thank you for all Ali and Mohammed.

Featuring a terrace with quiet street views, a private beach area and a garden, Queen House can be found in Aswan, close to Nubian Museum and 23 km from Aga Khan Mausoleum.

We had a fantastic stay! The place was clean, colorful, and had vibrant, positive energy. The staff was incredibly kind and helpful, even if not everyone spoke English—they all did their best to assist us. The host speaks English and helps to arrange activities at fair prices. Such a unique place to stay, thank you for having us!

Situated within 7.9 km of Aga Khan Mausoleum and 25 km of Kitchener's Island, Maghrabi's Guest house features rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Aswan.

I read some great reviews before booking our 3 nights there and they met our expectations. The owners are lovely hosts and they cross you across the Nile in their boat for free which is a plus as the guesthouse is situated in a very quiet area on the west bank. If you are in need of peace and quiet in a magnificent place, this is for you. Plus, the food they offer is very tasty (also try the hibiscus tea), the rooms are beautifully decorated without losing the nubian charm. They even helped out with the booking of a private car to Luxor. The guesthouse is one of the best places we have ever been too. I recommend it thoroughly.

Located within 23 km of Aga Khan Mausoleum and 1.1 km of Nubian Museum, ABAZIDO Nubian Guest House provides rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Aswan.

We were very happy with our stay at Abazido. The breakfast was good. There is a terrace with great views to the Nile and the West. The Guest House was tricky to find, but once you get there, the location is amazing. You are right beside the village on Elephantine Island and it has a much more relaxed and authentic feeling to it, as against the hustle and bustle of the main part of the city on the East bank. You are soon made to feel part of village life. The highlight probably was our host, Mohammed, who was extremely helpful and friendly and in no way pushy in promoting his tours.

Offering river views, FADL Kato is an accommodation located in Aswan, less than 1 km from Nubian Museum and a 11-minute walk from Kitchener's Island.

The house is on an island, accessible only by boat. They lost my suitcase at the airport and it arrived the next day while we were on an excursion. The owner of the house kindly had to go get it on the other side of the Nile because otherwise they wouldn't have taken it to the accommodation. I was very grateful for the service.

    Amazing service from the staff (Rena&Rena) and the managers Tahir and Esraa for sorting out a booking site issue with no problems My deepest thanks :-) It was no problem leaving at 4M for an early drive to Abu Simbel - the 10 minute ferry runs all night and a continental breakfast from 3am with a foil takeout box upon asking. The 360 panorama is absolutely spectacular and a great choice over the Cataract Hotel - thankyou for the room upgrade to a wonderful garden suite - it was greatly appreciated 😊

    I’m convinced this is the best place to stay in Aswan. It might be a little bit hard to find in the island, but there were locals who kindly showed me the way upon my arrival. There’s a beautiful garden, the staff is friendly and the room is very nice. The breakfast they serve is superb and you can also buy water and soda’s for a good price instead of having to go to a shop. Extra points for having the goodest dog in Aswan.

Really tasty food. Relaxing in the evening and listening to locals play music. Being able to absorb the Nubian culture was special.

    Bassam was a great host. The effort he has put into the roof area was really amazing, such a nice space to hang out and chat with him and other travellers. Showers were hot, AC was great. It was nice to stay on the West Bank and use the ferry over to the main city on the East Bank with all the locals. Very cheap and easy, but is something to be aware of. Great WiFi in the rooftop area, plenty of spaces there to chill out.
