Location was close to ferry port of elephantine island. Reko the host was beyond nice. Arranged for all tours at a very good price!!

Incredible place, a short walk from the ferry. It's clean, spacious, and cosy. Hot water, AC, strong wifi, gentle lighting, that really long pillow in the bed, and great views of the Nile. The hosts are wonderful and kind, they checked in on me, showed me around, and helped me book my trips around Aswan. The people they sent me with on the trips (locals from the area) were really amazing as well. The island is great and the people are really welcoming. I definitely want to come back, I'm just afraid I might never leave the second time around.

The owners went above and beyond, from meeting us as we got off the boat, to organising breakfast, laundry, a fascinating walk around the island to learn about Nubian culture, very fairly priced transport to Abu Simbel, a tour of sites and temples around Aswan, and even high tea at the Old Cataract Hotel with the best table and a perfect sunset view. The accommodation itself was simple but clean, with fans and good AC. As we had booked both rooms, it meant we had the kitchen and living room completely to ourselves, as well as the outdoor terrace which looks directly onto the Nile. It was a nice spot to catch sunrise in the morning or hang out in the evening. Elephantine island is a great base for Aswan - it's quiet with no cars or hassle, but the small boats to the mainland run all day and night and only take a few minutes if you do need to get across. It felt so different to anywhere else that we stayed in Egypt and I would definitely stay here again.

We had a 2 week trip to Egypt, on our own. This hotel was the best. We spent 2 nights here and remember it with great pleasure. The hotel is located on the island of Elephantine and we were pleased with it. Peaceful location with beautiful views but still easy to get to main Aswan, only 5 minutes by public ferry. We had a lovely room with a nice view of the Nile (1st row by the river)! Historic fortress with incredible sunsets and Bob Marley's restaurant on the island within walking distances. Such a welcoming and caring host! The host helped us with excursions in Aswan. The historic coffee making appliance in the lobby was an unforgettable experience )). We will recommend the hotel to all our friends.

The owners have created a cosy space with beautiful Nubian designs, it feels like you're entering someone's home. They greeted us with homemade welcome drinks and showed us how to make Nubian coffee for the morning. Location is close to the motorboat port, ideal for travel to the east bank. Due to our schedule changing, we arrived hours after our initial plan and felt bad that someone had been waiting the whole time (not like a hotel/hostel where you can check in anytime). Either be punctual or stay in touch with them.

The hosts greeted us with a welcome drink, they were kind approachable and did everything so we felt like we're at home. Hamada took us to show us around the island, we rowed across the Nile and took a camel ride to st. Simeon monastary. Nubian people are truly beyond hospitable, they even invited us to have a tea with them in their house. The location is easily accessible by ferry, surroundings is peaceful. The apartment is simple, yet clean and there is shared kitchen available. Lots of caffes around so you can enjoy serene trip. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Very clean, spacious, beautiful colours. The hosts are very friendly and hospitable. They treated me as a friend and showed me around the island.
