A real gem

This is a fantastic place to say. The rooms are lovely and great views from the top floor restaurant. If you are in Aswan then this is the place to stay.

Great location as there are sights to see on the island and boat trips go from almost next to the hotel. Ferry, which is 30p each, runs from 6am to 11pm and is very frequent but we had to go earlier for a flight which was all arranged by the hotel. They also arranged all our sightseeing which was really good. Food was nice and the roof terrace was nice for the evenings with a beer. We wheeled our suitcase from the ferry which wasn't too bad and possible if you're reasonably able, they will help if you arrange it before you arrive. Big rooms, hot shower etc. Non enquire rooms have private bathrooms just outside rooms. We highly recommend this hotel.

Great sized rooms and welcoming hosts. Beautiful view from the rooftop bar and restaurant. Nice to be on the island away from the hustle of the mainland and close to the ferry.

Our stay was exactly what we were after good food, good vibes and good people.

Liked the location on Elephantine Island and the ability to walk around the island easily and see a bit of the Nubian way & watch sunset from the ruins. The laid back experience and the vibes on top of the building eating meals and enjoying some brews was exactly what we were after.

We had an amazing stay at Bob Marley Guesthouse. The staff made us feel at home the second we walked in, and took amazin

The property is located on the lovely elefantine island, nice roof terrace with views of the Nile, close to the ferry port with everything you need around. We loved being on the island instead of in the city. The rooms are cute and clean and the beds are really comfy! We had our best sleep in Egypt here. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful, we were even able to finally do our washing. Last thing - the veggie tagine was absolutely delicious, one of the best vegan meals I had in Egypt and that is a very high bar!! I will be dreaming of the tagine until I come back.
