Nubian Lotus
elephantine island, 81111 Aswan, Egypt – Excellent location – show map
This place is a hidden gem of Aswan. While it is technically on Elephantine Island, it is easily accessible to Aswan by a 2 minute ferry ride. It's beautiful, serene, peaceful and my stay was greatly enhanced by the hospitality of owners, Marta & Osama. This place is truly a labor of love and they facilitated a carefree experience. Traditional breakfast is included and made by Osama himself. If you are looking for a place that is really rooted in community, you will thrive here.

United States of America“Nubian Lotus is a charming guest house on Elephantine Island. Osama and Marta were very accommodating. Osama came by motorboat to the ferry dock on Aswan to load our luggage on arrival and again when we departed. Breakfast was lovely upstairs...” - John United States of America“my family and I really enjoyed with the hotel. The owners treated us well. Especially, their homemade foods were all good and it was very quiet.”
