This property was 10/10. The host is extremely friendly and kind to help you navigate the local tourist spots and is willing to help you arrange your tours. The house is clean and comfortable and very well located close the city centre. I would highly recommend this accommodation for anyone traveling on a budget.

Omar is an exceptional host. He is proof of the saying: come as a guest, leave as a friend. He facilitated our transfer from Luxor to Aswan, then the road to Abu Simbel. The location is wonderful, the island is quiet - after 6 days in Egypt we slept here without any noise waking us up :). Delicious breakfast, dinner can also be served, also very tasty - Omar is a great cook. He brought us on arrival and departure with his boat. My wife wanted some Egyptian cotton towels - 30 minutes later, Omar brought them to us. Thank you for everything, Omar!

The service was excellent. The staff was very friendly, kind, helpful and paid attention in details. That was very impressive. The room was so nice, clean, comfortable, and the food was so delicious. The location is in Nubian village which is surrounded by colorful painting houses next to the Nile river. It is very pretty. Highly recommended!

- Beautiful views of the Nile and corniche! Both the bedroom and the common area had huge windows with incredible views. - The location is perfect…directly across the street from the public ferry to Elephantine Island, and walking distance to cafes, restaurants, ATMs, pharmacy, etc. Since the hostel is on a main road, it’s easier to set up pickups and dropoffs for InDrive rides (some of the other places in Aswan can be difficult for drivers to find) - The hostel is brand new, and everything feels very fresh and clean. The big common area is nicely set up for both relaxing and meeting other travelers, and also has a kitchen that’s available for guests to use. - The private double was really big and spacious, with a huge comfortable bed and crisp clean sheets. And of course, the gorgeous view of the Nile! Overall, such incredible value for the price!

We had an amazing time staying at Chams House! My family (3 people) and I stayed for 3 nights. They greeted us with a fruit basket and lemon mint juice, which was such a thoughtful surprise! The house was super clean, spacious, and very comfortable, and the family made us feel at home the entire time. Since we had a lot of luggage, they arranged a microbus to pick us up from the train station, which made things much easier. At first, we were a bit unsure about the location, but the family helped us plan a great program for the 3 days, taking care of every little detail. A big delicious breakfast was waiting for us every morning. We also asked for a homemade traditional dinner, and they cooked an amazing meal for us. The family was so friendly and kind—we had wonderful conversations with them, and they were some of the nicest and most humble people we met in Egypt. They even called the bus station to help us with an issue we had with our bus to Hurghada. The wifi was surprisingly great, I was able to work the whole time freely. But the highlight for us was how authentic and local the whole experience felt. It was so different from anything else we saw in Egypt, and being immersed in the Nubian culture was unforgettable. The islands were beautiful, the food was fantastic, and the Nubian massage my mom, aunt, and I got in the guest house was amazing! They even let us check out late, since our next bus was untill 3pm. We absolutely loved our time at Chams House and would recommend it to everyone. Don’t think twice— I'm sure you’ll love it as much as we did! Thank you to Mr Chams, Mrs Bertuda, Khetamy and the cutest little Anas, you all made us feel at home.

All hostels in Aswan

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. They gave me plenty of recommendations and did not overcharge for water (like many hostels and hotels do). The area felt safe as staff as well as locals from the village would assist if need be.

Property is in a quiet area of Aswan, away from the noisy city. Crossing the street it has an exclusive area to swim into the Nile river or do some kayaking, which are rented for a cheap price. They also offer water and soft drinks and a small breakfast included. You can easily spend many days relaxing in the hostel, without even leaving to do attractions.

Great owner who was very helpful, the room was nice, and I loved the view from the rooftop! The hostel is on the island and is very easy and cheap to reach by public ferry (takes 5mins). Walking around the island is also fun. Check out King Jamaica for some good food. :)
