“EVERYTHING. I cannot stress this enough. You might think it is on the pricier side, but it is absolutely hands-down worth it. Book a Safari tour with them too - it was amazing. The food was incredible, room and bathroom were so clean (which suprises me being in the middle of the desert). So many shampoos and other amenities in the rooms. May was fantastic and so friendly and helpful. Great little suprises throughout the stay. Thank you for the stay of a lifetime - we took mattresses out and slept under the stars. There are beautiful dogs and puppies at the sky camp too. 100000/10 would do it again. I've traveled all over the world and this is by far one of my top spots. Thank you very much.”
“Everything about Rahala Safari Hotel was excellent. Ahmed and the entire staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Breakfast is excellent and plentiful, dinner is tasty and plentiful. The lounge with the fire lit is wonderful and you feel like a Bedouin while drinking tea after dinner. The hotel has a beautiful garden with flowers and fruit trees, ideal for drinking tea or coffee.”
“It was the most sensational accommodation we had in Egypt.
For Egypt, I appreciate the exceptional accommodation conditions, but at the same time the rooms are very creatively decorated. They combines a stone age look with the luxury of today.
We had extreme quietness, we rested very well.
The service staff was extremely attentive to us and the dinner and breakfast were varied, local cuisine, delicious.”
“The host is wonderful, amazing and friendly. He is so passionate about the area - took us around for tours.
My mum was so happy to stay here. The staff is wonderful- all nice and friendly.
They arranged tours to the white and black deserts, led by the owner of the property, who is amazing and friendly,”
“I resrved two nights at Rahala Safari Hotel, so I must say, the cleanliness of the hotel exceeded my expectations. The rooms were immaculate, and the attention to detail was evident throughout. Additionally, the staff was exceptionally helpful, providing excellent service with a friendly and welcoming attitude. My overall experience was delightful, thanks to the hotel's commitment to cleanliness and outstanding support from the staff.”
“From the first moment we arrived until the end of our stay we felt very welcome in the Rahala Safari Hotel. It's owned by a Bedouin family and they work hard to make you happy. The room was very clean and the beds super comfortable. We had also a little boiler to prepare coffee and tea (provided by them) and a basket of fresh fruit. Breakfast and dinner were delicious and abound. The little domes are surrounded by a beautiful garden. Because they asked a copy of the passports already before arriving they noticed that one of us celebrated his 80th birthday and they prepared a beautiful cake for him! What a surprise. The day after we had a 24 hours tour in the white desert with Hamada and Hamooh which was really great. We felt safe and they spoiled us with awesome spots, good food and their kindness. We want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH and we wish you all the best. Love from Monika, Kathrin and Pietro.”
“The Location is amazing, Beir El Gabal is in the middle of the desert and the nature view is outstanding! The Beir (Hot Springs) is incredible, around 35 degrees warm water and you can even use the Beir in the night, which is beautiful under the stars. I really enjoyed the food, also good vegetarian options. The owner and the staff is very helpful and supportive.”
“It’s a must stay property and worth going out your way to, fabulous walks around the property and it’s a must to visit the old Qsar town nearby (car ride), please do not miss. The property has its own amazing hot spring, where I drank a beer I had brought with me, relaxed until midnight. The dinner I received was also very delicious and the best cooked chicken I had in Egypt. Mr Hatten the owner is very friendly and makes you very welcome. DON’T MISS STAYING AT THIS PROPERTY IF YOUR TRAVELLING AROUND THE WESTERN DESERT. The owner also offers a free ride to the local town, so no issue to get there, even though I paid for a taxi that was very cheap.”
“Amazing choice to stay in Farafra and explore White desert. Host‘s Ahmed attitude to his job is admirable: he really interests in guests needs and do everything to fulfil it, many thanks. Nice maintained and cozy hotel territory, big dinning room, very good and variuos breakfast. Dinner is perfect, various and very cheap – only 5 euro for person, portions are very big. Room is spacious, very clean, comfy. Hot water and big shower cabin, that is unusual in Egypt. Comfy beds, clean linen, sheets, blankets, many drinking water for free. Hosts arrange amaizing jeep safaries to the White desert, it is worth every euro we‘ve paid. Free and safe parking, they washed our car for free. Hotel is family runned and they work hard for guest could feel good and safe despite of hard conditions, autorities and police - they are not about help, but about obstruction only.”
