great location, best food on the island, and wonderful staff.

Bob Marley is the perfect place to stay in Aswan. The food is absolutely amazing (probably some of the best we’ve had in Egypt so far!) and the accommodations are clean and comfortable! We visited while the temperature was almost 40 degrees and our room was always cool and comfortable. The staff is really wonderful and will help you with anything you need whether it’s a tour, transportation, suggestions… anything at all. Staying on Elephantine Island is extremely peaceful especially in comparison to the rest of Aswan. Whether you stay at Bob Marley or not, make sure you come relax and have an amazing meal here :)

The decoration and overall feel is very vibrant, the options for authentic Nubian food is the best part, it´s really finger licking good. Also there is an arrangement of Sisha parlour with variety of flavors. This hotel is very close to the Nile, thus have an amazing view of the Nile from the terrace. The owner also arranged a private car for us for the next day´s trip to Nubian Village and finally dropping us to the airport. Good ambience, good hospitality, good food and good location - hope this will meet everybody´s expectation with a pocket friendly budget.

The food and the view and the vibe are amazing Wifi works very well and you have a good signal from the rooms They have (real) beer and wine and a charcoal grill where they serve super delicious chicken and meat. The view of the Nile and downtown is breathtaking from their rooftop terrace Kitchen stays open late All the staff is super nice They offer laundry on site at a great price All the things they do very well here are not very common at other hotels in Egypt. This is our fifth one so far.

the family was so kind and the meals were fantastic

Staff was very very friendly and helpful. very good value for money.

Nice place on elephantine island. Rooms were clean, bathroom was ok. Nice rooftop with beautiful view. The guesthouse is run by a family. Ali and Mohammed are very kind and helpful. it was the perfect place for us to discover few days in Aswan. Since the guesthouse is a short boat ride away from the mainland it makes the experience even better. If you are looking for a nice, chilled place with a good location this is definitely the place to go. Will be back!

STAY HERE! Ali was so nice and fun to be around. At one point he even came around the rooms and burned some nice herbs. The Bob Marley restaurant has the best view and friendly people who hang on the top of it. The food was the best food we had in Aswan, especially the fish tagine!! 10/10 recommend. The ferry only costs five Egyptian pounds to cross, and it’s so much better to stay on elephantine Island, where it’s peaceful instead of the bustling city.

The staff are all very friendly. The rooftop provides a comfortable place to hang out with a great view. All of the food we ate was absolutely delicious! We love that the staff let you do what you like, come and go as you please. It's such a relaxed vibe unlike some places you stay where you get hassled to do all of there activities and tours.

staff (ali) was helpful and spoke English well. the rooms were clean and comfortable. Breakfast was good, and views from the island are nice. we arrived very late at night and were escorted to a nice clean room for some good sleep. hassle free check-in and check-out.
