Guest Houses in Aswan

Gemma New Zealand

Great location, less than 5 minutes to the ferry. We arrived at 3am and had arranged for someone to pick us up and a private boat through the guesthouse. All went perfectly. They helped us arrange tours as well! Great air con, wifi, breakfast was nice, you can get food from a local cafe delivered and the staff were helpful.

The guest house ran by Mohammed was absolutely perfect. The room was very clean and large, the shower was hot and powerful, the beds were comfortable. Mohammed is an excellent owner who helped organise our trip to Abu Simbel for a fair price and zero hassle. He speaks good English and is very friendly. He was able to answer all our questions and make good unbiased recommendations. It's located in a very safe Nubian area, the local people are some of the kindest I have ever met. I dropped my wallet and didn't notice until the next day, incredibly it was returned to me via Mohammed with all the cash still inside! My great thanks to both the woman that returned it and to Mohammed for liaising with her. The guest house is only 1 minute walk from the public ferry which runs all day/evening and is very reasonable at 10 Egyptian pounds each way. I would definitely stay here again if visiting Aswan.

Pros: - It's next to the Nile! - The rooms that were right smack to the Nile come with cozy, sunny balcony. You could see felucca passed by, which was magical - Their staff, always helpful and friendly. We had a 20kg luggage each and they helped us willingly :)

Perfect romantic location right next to the Nile river. Far away from Egypt's street noise. It has a rural feel, which is exactly what we looked for. The property is exactly as shown in the pictures and the view to the river is breathtaking. Very comfortable beds, typical hearty and delicious Egyptian breakfast (the best we've had in Egypt). Ahmed is extremely kind, welcoming and very funny. He picked us up from the airport even at midnight. He also organized at reasonable prices a private boat trip to the Botanical garden and Nubian village (he even demonstrated his Nubian braveness by holding a crocodile). He is very honest and it's best to ask him to organize tours because he gives attractive offers, much better than the tour agencies. It is the perfect place to immerse yourselves in the traditional Nubian culture and way of life. Right next to the guest house is a "Kafana cafe", where you can enjoy delicious and freshly prepared food with a stunning view to the Nile. If we ever visit Aswan again, we will undoubtedly pick Ahmed's guest house and we definitely recommend that you do so as well. You won't regret it!

The owner was really nice, always prepared a nice breakfast during our stay and helped us getting nice tours with fair prices. The place was well located in the more quiet Elephantine Island, right next to the boat (that costs 10 pounds) and close to restaurants run by other members of the family, which have delicious food.

This was our little home away from home. After all the busyness and bartering in the adventure that Egypt is, it was so nice to jump on the local ferry to the island and be surrounded by such kind and relaxed people. The room was big clean and very comfortable. Aircon and a large ceiling fan worked wonders against the heat. Also provided tours for everything you could imagine, bookable on arrival. Very easy.
