    Nubian Queen Guest House is beautiful, and Rawia is warm and welcoming; I was treated like family. I was comfortable and my sleep was peaceful. I recommend Nubian Queen Guest House.

    Everything is good except the boat tour arrangement to Philae Temple, the boat captain tried to persuade us to give him cash and gave us an old ticket. We insisted to go to the ticket office which made him not happy after all. It is not pleasant and I recommend people not to do that.

    The host is absolutely amazing, she helps us to arrange tours and the place is clean. You can have a nice view from the rooftop. She gives us free breakfast and lovely necklance on our check out day. If you arrive, please WhatsApp her in advance so that someone gonna check you in.

    A tad expensive for Egypt prices, As mentioned by other comments, was not given top cover, towel and toilet roll. However, it was provided upon request. Would be nice if it's already there during the stay

    owner was nice, she prepared a small gift for me before i left, however i got woke up at 6am as she did not have the key to enter the premises. It is great to get out of the busy city since there was no car in the elephantine island.

    I stayed here for 2 nights, but the internet didn’t work for one day.

    There are 2 public boat ramps on the island, and the guesthouse is a 3min walk from the northern one. The room was clean and there was always a hot shower. The owner was very kind and gave me a handmade necklace for me. I checked out very early in the morning but she came with me to the boat ramp to see me off. Thank you!

    The host and her son are very kind. The room is big, tidy and clean. Location is nice and quiet. Shower water is hot and strong. Wifi is good and stable.

    Everything about our stay here was amazing. It's a new building, very clean and with great rooms and facilities. Also it is in an excellent location. However, the highlight of our stay was the owner. An incredibly nice lady who made sure we were always comfortable and the meal she prepared us was one of our favourites in 6 months of travel around the world. Would definitely stay again!

    The Wifi didnt have connection to the Internet at the time The pillow a little bit big. Thats all.

    We had a great time at the Nubian Queen Guest House! Allthough we booked on very short notice, erverything was ready for us. The host was very kind. She offered good advice for our future plans in Assuan and booked our trip to Abu Simbel. In the evening, she prepared a very delicios Dinner at the Nile. She took great care to prepare us a variety of traditional nubian dishes and a tasty egyptian tee and a incredible cold hibiscustee. The room is newly build and has a modern and quiet AC. The bathroom, allthough build egyptian style, is new and clean The guesthouse is located on the elephantine island. A calm and relaxing enviroment with a very friendly and helpfull neighborhood. The Island itself can be reached by public ferry next to a KFC for 10 EGP at the time. Overall we had a great time. I would always book again! A clear recomendation!

    When you need a safe way of travel, they can manage trip or taxi for you but we managed that by ourselves.

    It looks quite freshly built, we got a tea in the morning, the lady is nice and considerate, easy to find from the ferry (check OpenStreetMaps or call to pick up from the ferry), trip to Abu Simbel can be provided.

    Staying at The Nubian Guesthouse exceeded all my expectations. The cleanliness of the facilities was impeccable, creating a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. The hospitality shown by the house owner Hajja Rawia was truly exceptional; she went above and beyond to ensure that I felt welcomed and taken care of during my visit. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth and genuine kindness, making me feel like a valued guest. The Nubian Queen Guesthouse is a true gem in Aswan, and I highly recommend it to anyone .

    As mentioned above

    On the whole, everything was agreeable. Except as a way to improve the place, let there be assigned a worker to do daily thorough cleaning of the entire guest house. Also provide a flat iron. Nevertheless I would choose to stay there again if I travelled back to Aswan because the old lady who took care of us in her demeanor was so exceptional. I love her.

    Nothing, everything was súper good!

    Everything was EXCELLENT! The room was super clean and comfortable, with air conditioning. Rawia's attention was exceptional, she made us feel at home. The guesthouse is very close to where you take the ferry to cross and that makes it very convenient. In addition, Elephantine Island is ideal to stay, super quiet and with very beautiful views of the Nile. But, more than anything, I want to thank Mrs. Rawia for being so kind and helping us with everything, she helped us organize the tour to the Philae temple and Abu Simbel. Don't hesitate to stay here because I would definitely do it again 😊

    The location of the guest house was very close from the boat station. But we had to take a public boat whenever we go out. That's only one thing inconvenient.

    The host lady was very good. She gave every information what we need. Especially the local mini bus information to Abu Simbel. We stayed tween room with private bath room.The guest house was clean and comfortable.
