wonderfully friendly staff

Stayed in November 2022

Keep in mind this is an original Nubian house, if you're not comfortable in a not perfectly sealed rooms this is not the right place. We had no pests issues during our stay but light was coming in from sealing and walls, this will not exclude the possibility of "little friends passing by".

Beautiful structure in real Nubian style. The room was massive and the bathroom new and clean. Stellar customer service. Restaurant on site. Best WiFi in our two weeks trip.

Nubian style of the hotel with a beautiful view on the nile from the terrasse. Room was spacious and well decorated. Bathroom was nicer to most one we got to experience in Egypt. Staff was really helpful.

only issue is that the shower water was very muddy and it took was a while to figure it out that they inverted the blue for hot water and red for cold water.

staff was very kind and polite and food was excellent. hotel is very beautiful and charming.

Fantastic property build in Nubian style. Great welcoming and services. We dined at the restaurant that was very good and breakfast was excellent. It was an unforgettable moment in our visit in Abu Simbel. Would love to come back and stay a bit longer.

The hotel was amazing. We were greeted by the owners family and given a welcome Hibiscus drink. They advised us how to best visit the temple and arranged, for a small charge, a sunrise boat trip, with tea and biscuits, on lake Nasser to see the sun rise on the temple. The food was wonderful, fresh fish from the lake, meat and vegetarian options. The rooms are exceptional, Nubian design and textiles. Very spacious with a private terrace. I cannot recommend the hotel highly enough. i wish we had stayed longer in this peaceful haven.

Some staff somewhat over promised when it came to arranging activities.

Authentic Nubian house and culture. Very friendly staff

On the pricey side but one of the nicest place we’ve stayed at in Egypt (Hiltons and midrange hotel in Aswan).

Great place with local flavor

Everything was perfect!

The best way to see Abu Simbel is to flight and stay at Eskaleh Eco Lodge! The charm of the villa is amazing! The staff is also very very friendly, humble, and kind!

This place was a dream. Right from the room and the lodge, to the people, the food and the kittens. It was so nice to finally stay in a place which had good value for money, the staff were super nice and friendly and the food was beautiful. I am sad i missed out on the music the owner uses plays sometimes as he was away for a wedding.

WiFi signal could have been stronger in the rooms. Maybe a repeater could help. Other than that, it was perfect.

Probably as atmospheric and authentic as it can get: The whole architecture and decoration was traditionally Nubian which created a very nice atmosphere but still provided all modern amenities (air condition, shower,...). Also the view on Nasser lake from the hotel terrace is nice. The rooms are all satisfyingly clean and all staff was really friendly and helpful with organising our trip back to Aswan. The Nubian dinner was fantastic - taste-wise and atmospherically with nice Nubian background music. The fish we had was excellently seasoned - the best we had during our travels.

Everything was perfect, honestly.

We had the loveliest stay at Eskaleh Eco Lodge! Staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, the room was amazing and food was very very tasty. We were also very happy that they provided vegetarian options in the dinner menu. Location is perfect, you are only a few minutes away from the temples as well as the airport, and the surroundings are calm and relaxing. We also love the Nubian style of the decor. We visited in the summer time and were initially a bit scared of the heat, but it really was fine and the hotel has AC and fans everywhere. To top it off, we befriended the sweetest little, healthy kitty and had a lovely relaxing day in between visiting the temple. 100% recommended!!

All Good

The host Bassam was very very helpful, me and my son landed in Aswan at 6pm and had no transportation to Abu Simbel but Bassam arranged transportarion for a fair price. nice dinner was ready or us as soon we arrived to the location He also arranged a boat for us to take to the temple and then back to the hotel for breakfast as well as transporation to the Abu Simbel airport. so this is a host that goes above and beyond. the hotel itself is very unique and has a fabulous style.

everything was amazing from the lodge itself,the location and the staff,there is nothing not to like about this wonderful place.

from the moment i arrived at Eskaleh eco lodge and was greeted by a cool refreshing hibiscus tea,i immediately felt at home. The location of the lodge beside lake was dreamy and the lodge itself was so full of character and had a warm ambiance feel about it. The food was amazing both the complimentary breakfast and the dinner which was offered as an extra and which i highly recommend. The room had everything you could wish for,great a.c,big bathroom and towels,good fridge and lovely outdoor patio, and the whole place was spotless. the rooftop area was massive with plenty of seating and provided an amazing panoramic view over the lake. most of all....were the staff...i have traveled the world and stayed at many different places but i felt extremely privileged to have been able to meet the people who help run the lodge,from the gardeners to the cleaners,housekeeping and cooks,they were all such warm wonderful and friendly people,how many hotel staff in your experience offer to take you suitcase to the bus station,i think that says it all. my whole experience at this lodge was nothing short of amazing and i will be coming back in september because of my experience here. thank you so much to Fickry,Shadee,Noree,Mohammod T.,the 3 Ahmed's,the 2 Ali's,,Fatima,Lilo,Kinara,Mabrook,Hub,Samaha,Osman,Abdul,Hamdy,Lezeer,Saba,Hajaj,Hassan,and Mazdy. miss you all and see you soon.

I had booked for two nights but it was not possible to travel overnight from aswan to abu simbel so we lost one night. Hasan returned the money for that night without any problem, honesty and integrity are the best qualities, Thanks Hasan.

Not much to stay at this price point. Maybe a better finish in the bathroom.

The hotel has a very nice local decoration. The room was very spacious and had a very nice rustic look. The dinner in terrace outside was very good experience. The hotel is also very good located to visit Abu Simbel temples. Just 5 min by car.

Breakfast was good! It will be great to add some seasonal fruit like watermelon that are very popular in whole Egypt, the decorations according to Nubian old village makes this hotel very cosy and feeling like old days, lunch and dinner were great with a nice view and atmosphere , people working there are very nice and attentive . Excellent location to spend the night and go walking to Abul SIMBEL

Normal strength beer would have been nice. No a lot to do around this small town apart from Temple visit.

Nice authentic hotel with lovely outdoor dining & seating area, Food nicely cooked with reasonable local wine, beer available to but only 10% variety! Staff great & helpful, took a boat trip onto Lake Nasser from here 400 EGP per hour. Nice rustic feel to the place. plenty of parking space.
