A bit dated but still the best in town.

Location, food and pool.

Wi-Fi only available in public areas and pretty weak there. One English speaking television channel which was RT (Russian Television) constantly giving Putin propaganda. Dinner at the restaurant was a little on the high side even a-la-carte ordering. This was the most expensive hotel night (about $350 including taxes) we had during a 22 day trip that covered Dubai-Maldives-Cairo-Abu Simbel-Istanbul (well except for the Maldives of course). I guess the Law of Supply and Demand is fully in charge here since there really are no other suitable options available.

Pleasant surprise-- sort of an oasis in the desert--I was surprised by the massive size of the resort compared to the rest of the sleepy little village. Not a blade of grass in the rest of the town and desert but beautiful manicured lawns at the resort. Multiple pools, coffee bar area, large air conditioned restaurant. Front desk staff were extremely helpful--all staff were very attentive.

The location is superb. Very friendly staff though not very well trained in terms of bar/appetizer. Long time to get a drink at the pool.

We really payed too much for our rooms, even despite we had a free upgrade: no wifi in the room, curtains partly falling from the rails, broken lamp, outdated electricity wires, safe not working and loose in the closet. I wonder why all the money the tourists have spend in this hotel is not used for maintenance. If you want to earn this amounts of money (300$ for 1 night, 6$ for a beer, in Egypt!) you have to follow high hotel standards. No blame to the receptionists, waiters and cleaners because they are doing their job very well. My complaint concerns the management and the owner(s) of the hotel.

Great location near the temples and at Lake Nasser. The pool is lovely. Staff is very friendly and helpfull.

The beautiful pool over looking the Nile and the nice soft music they played.

You could feel the peace and the powerful forces of the river caving its way through the desert. The property just meld into its surroundings.

The prices were very high. The pool was freezing, the buffet was not good. The toilet in our room was not attached and you practically fell on the floor when using it. The chair on our patio was also broken. For the high price we paid, there should not have been major maintenance problems with the room and the pool should have been heated.

Convenient location to Abu Simbel on Lake Nasser with a nice pool.

No wifi in the room—you just had to go out to the pool—very close, but if you like to lay in bed and scroll, you have to use data.

It’s very pretty, rooms super cute. Staff was wonderful.

We didn’t eat at the hotel as it was very expensive compared to the restaurants in town.

We enjoyed our one night stay at Seti Lake Resort. We arrived early due to a change in flight schedule and were pleased to be able to check in right away and be upgraded to a suite from our double room. The suite was spacious with a view of Lake Nasser. The room and furnishings were a little old but well-kept and comfortable. The location is excellent, only a short walk into town or to the temples. The pool was cool and refreshing.

We would have wanted easy and delicious a-la-carte dining options. A-la-carte was only available at the bar with limited choices. The restaurant offered expensive lunch and dinner buffets only (the decent breakfast buffet, however, was included in the room price). Also, we did not receive room service as we responded to the knock that we would be gone in one hour (which was still within their service hours), and the housekeeper nodded, but then no one ever serviced the room while we were gone. and no one ever picked up the used fruit plate with just peels. The person who brought a new fruit plate refused to take the old one and didn't send anyone else to pick it up.

We loved the location within walking distance to the temples.

The staff at seti lake resort were wonderful. Lovely location looking over Lake Nasser. Excellent breakfast. WiFi in the public areas is good. Nice walk of 1 mile to the temples.

No wi-fi in the rooms! I'm paying near US$'300 a night!!! Are you serious??? The safe is old and tiny and not working properly. I travel a lot and I know how it should work and I know the sizes of other hotels. Also their breakfast does not match the room rate. If they charge every service in the hotel in USD then their staff should all speak English!!! Hope you publish my review in full.

Location, balcony, lake view, good bathroom.

The room and the food is too expensive Value for money is not there.

Nice room but everything is old. Food was good.We enjoyed the three nights very much Nice pool.

Stayed in November 2022

The lobby was a quite rundown and when we arrived it made us nervous. the pool was ice cold which was a shame as we would have liked a swim after the long drive

very conveniently located and the rooms were large with sunset viewing terrasses. large pool area. nice breakfast buffet

Stayed in October 2022

The food options could be improved to match the arquitectura and care of the hotel.

The property design and landscaping is beautiful. The room design is Nubian style, large and comfortable. We were upgraded at arrival and had a terrace with wonderful sunset views. The hotel is very peaceful overlooking the lake. Perfect for relaxing. location is 10 min walk from Abu Simbel entrance. Egypt air has a free shuttle from the airport to the hotel.
