I loved the atmosphere and the staff were super helpful

The hotel made my experience much BETTER than I initially thought. People here were extremely helpful and worried about us, specially Haithian, who supported us with absolutely all. He even helped me with a tour guide we already booked (disappointing service) and talked with several people in Arabic -at 4:00 am- for us to have the best of the experiences. Without him, my trip wouldn’t be the same. Absolutely recommended if it’s your first time in Aswan and want to have direct view to the Nile in a friendly environment.

We arrived at the property by boat, they have their own water access and you can also use this to swim in the Nile,they took our bags, signaled for us to take a seat, a few minutes later a fresh mango juice appeared, delicious. The room was perfectly fine and had a fridge, no problems at all. The staff were extremely friendly and always smiling offering to help, this included helping one of us to the pharmacy to translate. Great stay, in a good location, can't be beaten.

That was absolutely wonderful stay. Staff was so humble and always attentive. Hisham is a gem of a person, always kind and he is always there for any assistance needed. He looked after entire hotel & guests, really such a wonderful human. Room was good, bathroom was nice with super pressure of water. I strongly recommend to everyone

Rooms are very small particularly the bathrooms where shower and toilet are essentially all in one space and not enclosed.

Great value for money property in Nubian village. Very kind and helpful staff.

Was amazing, over and above. The staff was super nice and ready to go the extra mile to make sure that we were happy. Value is way way more than the price we paid. Thanks for Naser, Haitham, and the chef Yousif.

The hotel was cozy and comfortable, and the staff were helpful and courteous. They ensured that refreshments and amenities were always available. The view was beautiful, and I especially enjoyed the atmosphere in the evenings. The hotel organized a gathering that brought together locals and guests, featuring Nubian music and dancing. It was an amazing experience with an intimate and very welcoming atmosphere. The staff were respectful and went above and beyond to ensure the guests' comfort. The bed and linens were very comfortable. The hotel also arranged trips to various attractions by boat and car, and you could take a camel ride into the desert directly from the hotel. The location was excellent, right next to the bazaar but still peaceful and private. There was also an ATM located right in front of the hotel. I initially booked the hotel for a few nights but extended my stay because I enjoyed it so much. They even upgraded my room to a larger one with a private terrace and a stunning view of the river! I also really appreciated the beautiful paintings and decorations, which added to the warm and welcoming atmosphere. I dined at the hotel every day, and the food was absolutely incredible – fresh and flavorful! I highly recommend this place; it offers excellent value for money.

Facilities and the room were basic, but host's attitude and help exceeded all shortcomings.

The host and his team were amazing. I would give them more than 10 points. They did everything to make your stay pleasant. Breakfast was better than in a 4 stars hotel. Hotel is in the Nubian village, and you have a very good chance to get known these remarkable people.

Nothing. It’s perfect to stay in Nubian.

Clean, beautiful views, amazing location, lovely bed, en suite with balcony and sun beds and a great price! Also the food provided was delicious and we could take a dip in the Nile directly from the steps at the Opal terrace which was a huge bonus!
