    Our experience at Seti Abu Simbel Lake Resort was extremely positive. The hotel offers every service. Its location, with a wonderful view of the lake and easy access to the Abu Simbel site, makes it an excellent choice. We especially appreciated the constant assistance of Mohammed in every activity and transfer, organized down to the finest details. His kindness and professionalism truly make a difference. We definitely recommend this hotel.

    The dining room was a bit soulless, but handled large volumes of guests well.

    Fabulous location Beautiful swimming pools Balconies with beautiful views over the lake Close to the temple Wonderful staff, especially Manager Mohamed, who personally looked after every part of our trip and certainly made it run more smoothly and more enjoyable.

    Nothing. I would however not recommend the Light and Sound evening show. Nothing much to it

    Perfect location close to the temple, a very attractive hotel nicely laid out with excellent management and staff. It was perfect for us. Highly recommended

    It was full of mosquitoes and they sprayed a strong anti-mosquito thing that made us get dizzy! Also, very slow service at the restaurant.

    Nice setting with beautiful views. Comfortable suite that perfectly accommodated a family of 4.

    Service was mediocre, but lazy staff frankly that often gave you a long face when asked to do anything. And definitely don’t eat there. Breakfast is just about ok. Western dinner is not recommended. Go outside and eat local

    Facilities, rooms, landscaping and location were great.

    Pleasant Surprise-Oasis in The Desert, but a little pricey
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • Double or Twin Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    Wi-Fi only available in public areas and pretty weak there. One English speaking television channel which was RT (Russian Television) constantly giving Putin propaganda. Dinner at the restaurant was a little on the high side even a-la-carte ordering. This was the most expensive hotel night (about $350 including taxes) we had during a 22 day trip that covered Dubai-Maldives-Cairo-Abu Simbel-Istanbul (well except for the Maldives of course). I guess the Law of Supply and Demand is fully in charge here since there really are no other suitable options available.

    Pleasant surprise-- sort of an oasis in the desert--I was surprised by the massive size of the resort compared to the rest of the sleepy little village. Not a blade of grass in the rest of the town and desert but beautiful manicured lawns at the resort. Multiple pools, coffee bar area, large air conditioned restaurant. Front desk staff were extremely helpful--all staff were very attentive.

    The staff were amazingly friendly - Mohamed was fantastic and really helped us out, even after we checked out of the hotel and were in other parts of Egypt!! We were upgraded for free and so our room was huge and we were given free cookies and fruits. The location the temple was excellent.
