Hotel and facilities are extremely old. The area is very run down.

Staff were extremely helpful and hotel was clean. Breakfast was awesome. Continental breakfast and pancakes with banana and chocolate sauce.

You enjoy Nile from your room as the hotel is on the riverbank's road. They arranged for us a driver for the day, Muhammad Ramadan, that was very helpful and took us everywhere we wanted, including Abu Simbel!

The noise from the street was a lot to try to sleep through, but I had ear plugs. There is no elevator, so be prepared to walk up a lot of stairs (they will help with luggage). Wifi only in the lobby.

Given the location, the rooms on the front of the hotel are noisy - but, they have beautiful views over the Nile. We had a triple room which was huge. It consisted of a living room/kitchen (large refrigerator, stove etc), one bedroom with a queen sized bed (and attached bathroom with shower), and a second bedroom with two single beds and attached bathroom with shower.

Was given a room at the back, not facing the Nile, and could not squeeze past the bed on the "window" (and bureau) side. No Wi-Fi in the room; one had to go down to the lobby to use a laptop. There was no light over the bathroom sink.

Affordability, location. Staff at the reception desk were very warm and hospitable, and sometimes even helpful. The room had an air conditioner and (eventually) hot water.

The facilities are too old, the Windows are very poorly soundproofed, and the sleep is very noisy.

The hotel has a great location and view, right next to one of the docks in Aswan. It's easy to get across to the Nubian village by boat or by sailing boat.

We booked a triple room, they added a bed to a small twin room. There was very little floor space it was that small. Luckily, we only stayed one night.

Great location, we had a room with a balcony and an amazing view over the Nile. Nice breakfast.

May be the breakfast could be more varied when you stay a few days. Just ask and they prepare it.

Philae Hôtel is a great place in Aswan. Beautiful view, nice people at the reception and lovely ladies serving the breakfast.

No elevator in the building, be prepared to walk up a few flights of stairs. Front desk will help you bring your luggage upstairs. For the value and comfort, this is the only inconvenience I can think of. Overall still a good choice for a stay in Aswan.

Clean, comfortable room. Very comfy bed! Staff ws very nice. Good location to catch connections to Nile cruises and day trips. Lots of stores nearby and pharmacies.

Very busy road. This is essentially a storefront entrance, but hotel itself is clean. Free wifi only worked in the lobby and restaurant.

Hotel was very convenient to the Nile riverfront in beautiful Aswan, walkable to the bazaar and a few restaurants. Great view of river and boats from room. Nice convenient breakfast. Quick laundry service.

There is no elevator for guests, and Wi-Fi is only available on the ground floor. Water pressure was minimal, and there were flies in the lobby at all times.

The view from my room on the fifth floor was spectacular. It looked out over the Corniche and over the Nile to Elephantine Island. I could see the desert monuments in the hills beyond. The staff was generally friendly, and breakfast was delicious and substantive.

The hotel is old with no lift, lake maintenance. I booked a Nile Cruise through the hotel for my family of 13 people, there was a lot of mucking around from the reception staff, finally I have been told that our Cruise was cancelled just one day before the due date, our stay was stressful. We will never stay at this hotel again.

Location is amazing facing the Nile. The rooms are clean.
