“Exceeded expectations for stay”
The team were fantastic, very responsive on whatsapp. The tours are cheaper than get your guide/klook. The views of the Nile were stunning. When I return to Aswan I will be using them again. Airport transfer is very reasonably priced - really enjoyed our time here.

“Perfect!”
Our time in Queen House was one of the best during our trip on Egypt. The house is located in Elephantine Island, which is much calm and quiet, and you can feel the true essence being there instead of Aswan mainland. The owner, Mr. Talaat was very helpful, friendly and a good communicator. He arranged the tours to Abu Simbel and to the nubian Village so we didn't need to worry about it. I totally recommend staying here during your time in Aswan which makes your experience much better.

“Wonderful stay in Aswan, I’ve already left a part of my heart there.”
A very friendly, family-run place with warm hospitality. They kindly provided us with a late checkout and gave us great tips and recommendations for exploring Aswan. Highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a welcoming and comfortable stay.

The room was comfortable and clean and the breakfast was very good. There is the most stunning view of the Nile from the balcony. This is definitely the best side of the island to stay for the views and tranquillity. Talaat was very helpful and relaxed. We had a great couple of days on the island. It is only a short walk from the pier to get back over into Aswan when you need to.

“For where and what it was it was ok. Now that I have seen other Nubian style guesthouses would be more selective in choi”
Colourful Nubian style house. Rustic. Tiny balcony despite photo with great view of Nile and Agha Khan mausoleum. Breakfast looked ok but decided on fruit as caught a stomach complaint most likely from the kofta meatballs from restaurant below. The owner coordinated our ferry transport to and from the island and a trip to a Nubian village and Abu Simbel. Being on the Nile is quite magical regardless of accommodation

“Beautiful panorama, very kind hosts”
The location is very nice, the hosts are wonderful hosts. The breakfast was delicious and plentiful, the room was clean, with a comfortable bed. The view from the balcony is amazing, it is very pleasant to sit out and admire the scenery. Mr. Talaat helped organize the programs, transfer from Luxor, Abu Simbel trip, visit to Philea temple, boat program and airport transfer. He was correct, punctual, reliable in everything. Thank you for your hospitality!

Talaat was a great host who explained how the island was different from the rest of Aswan as it was Nubian . Loved the ferry ride to and from Elephantine Island. EGP 15 each way.

“Rubbish environment left and right. The KUSH restaurant a dump.”
Nothing, maybe a sunset if that is one's priority

The island is one of a kind, another welcoming face of Egypt. The family taking care of the Queen’s house take good care with their additional services. Picking you up from the airport & arranging day trips for very reasonable prices.

It has beautiful views and is in a peaceful and quiet place. Breakfast was good. It was good value. I really recommend staying on Elephantine island and choosing Queen House.

The location right on the Nile is fantastic. It's excellent value for money, and Mr. Talaat made our stay very comfortable, handling all our transport to and from Aswan via boat transfer. The breakfast was also wonderful. Mr. Talaat's hospitality is truly incomparable! I will definitely come here again
