    The shower pressure is almost non existent. It also sprays everywhere but on you. The shower and toilet are in one open room so EVERYTHING gets wet. Make sure to remove the toilet paper or anything else you want to keep dry out of the room before attempting to shower.

    The owner Gasser was amazing. Check in and check out was smooth. Loved the terrace area and our room balcony with a Nile view. Easy access to and from island by regular and cheap boat service. Gasser makes the best cold (non-alcoholic) refreshing hibiscus drink I've ever had. No one else makes it like him. Even if you don't stay at the accommodation go for this drink.

    The shower system: everything gets wet in the bathroom since the shower is just above the toilet. Some young boys that work there are not big into hospitality, dreamy all day, maybe poor english? still very polite.

    Our host Gaser was very organized and provided info via whatsapp very quickly about anything even 2 days before arrival. We took Abu simbel tour in a shared van, its a long 4 hrs drive with poor AC and small seats, not very comfy, maybe if more budget take the private car. The food is very good at the restaurant. Room size not the biggest but enough for 2 days. Wifi good, AC great. The view from the restaurant is lovely, and the place has a peacefull vibe. I would recommend this hotel, its a great place for resting and just letting time pass...

    Loved our stay here! The property is amazing, right on the Nile! Breakfast and dinner here was great as well. We were able to organise a private felucca ride at sunset for a reasonable price which was a highlight. The host was fabulous and was able to organise anything we needed. Rooms were really nice and comfortable. Will hopefully be back again!

    Great view from the top floor room. Newly renovated and great bed. The view from the balcony over the Nile especially during golden hour is a site. We had hibiscus juice from the hotel (hibiscus juice became our favourite drink at the hotel) and just admired the sunset. The hotel organised all our tours to Abu Simbel, Philae temple, Nile river sunset cruise and transfer to Luxor with no issues. The food at the hotel was really good and breakfast was the best. The local boys working at the hotel taking us from the island to the port and also Felucca ride are the nicest people you’ll meet.

    All things are perfect, the owner picked me up at the ferry station near KFC during the midnight when I checked in and was so friendly and helpful. The entire team is very professional and service-minded, I did also booked some tours and transfer services via hotel and all went perfectly. Highly recommend! Ans the location is perfect with Nile view. This is the best hotel I lived during my trip in Egypt, and hassle free for sure, and the staffs speaks great English and easy to communicate. I would definitely live here again next time when I visit.

    Everything was perfect, but I recommend booking the room with balcony for a better comfort. Room with a window will be better for one person.

    People here, Nubians are the most polite and engaged people I met during my travels. They look after every aspect of your stay. Our room was big, clean, very fresh, smelling very good. The bathroom was quite small but comfortable. Breakfast was big, local and very good. I loved to seat at the balcony during evenings listening to muezins' prayers and looking on Nile.

    The bathroom is too small, and there's not much room for the shower. The pillows are hard and bing, uncomfortable for sleeping.

    The hotel is situated on Elephantine Island, in a small nubian village. This makes the experience so unique. It is worth staying there.. The management was very kind and helpful with all our requests.

    Wifi signal wasn’t fantastic, and would have liked to have a small refrigerator in the room (but it wasn’t advertised as having one) just a suggestion for the future.

    It was our first time visiting Luxor and very glad to spend it at Kana Kato. Jazzier and his team made our pick up and drop off very clear and had no hassle getting to or from the island. The food and great hospitality were our standout highlights of our stay. A very filling and yummy Nubian breakfast every morning, sweet milkshakes sometimes at lunch, and tagine of all kinds for dinner (chicken was our favourite). The public ferry was very straightforward to use, but ended up paying for the hotel private boat once the first night just to keep it simple. The view from our room was fantastic, certainly on par with that of other river side hotels but at much better value. We even got a call back and return boat ride when our host discovered we had left a jacket in our room.
