I accidentally booked the wrong dates for my stay, but the staff was incredibly flexible and accommodating. They also arranged a very comfortable and reasonably priced tour to Abu Simbel for me, and even allowed a late check-out to match my flight schedule. I am completely satisfied with my stay. Thank you so much!

“Quiet Aswan night on a small island of the Neil river”
This guesthouse is located in the Elephantine island and so one can enjoy the wide city view from its roof balcony. Very close to the public ferry boat dock, but one needs to walk up a small/short slope to reach the house, and then climb its stairs a little with your suitcases to your room. Kindly, however, the house owner helped us carry the suitcase upstairs.

Good location, close to the ferry dock. The property has a terrace and a roof top with great views over the river. Ahmed was helpful in booking a tour and transport to Luxor. I would happily stay again.

“Cozy stay on Elephantine Island”
Ahmed Is a great host, genuinely interested in preparing the best experience of Aswan for you. He organized a wonderful private Felucca ride and the trip to Abu Simbel. The view from the hotel is really cool, it was a pleasure getting back there at the end of the day.

We had a wonderful stay in Aswan, and this place made the experience even more special. The host was very friendly and genuine, and his local knowledge was extremely helpful. He assisted us in booking different tours and rides, often at better prices than platforms like Viator. We booked a private felucca ride just for two people, which was a great experience, and also a private motorboat ride to the Nubian village, which was very enjoyable. He was attentive, responded quickly, and gave excellent restaurant recommendations both on and off the island. The location is on Elephantine Island, which can be reached only by ferry. The stay is very conveniently located, just a 3-minute walk from the public ferry point. Elephantine Island itself is peaceful and calm, with a small village vibe. The locals were friendly, and we felt completely relaxed—no one bothered us, which made the stay feel very safe and authentic. The room was clean and neat, exactly as shown in the photos. It also has a small kitchen, which was useful during the stay. One of the highlights was the amazing view. The room has a balcony overlooking the Nile, and spending time there enjoying the view was truly memorable. Overall, a peaceful stay with a great host, beautiful views, and an authentic Aswan experience. Highly recommended.

“Good value in general, but if you have enough budget I don’t recommend stay on the island.”
It is cheap and close to ferry. The owner is friendly.
