"We had a wonderful stay and enjoyed the quiet, tranquil location. The staff and service was outstanding, everyone was eager to help. The spa facility was exceptional, particularly Zeinab provided an amazing and relaxing experience. The rooms are large and we had a cold jacuzzi which was very nice in the hot weather. The buffet breakfast was delicious. "

Commune with nature and explore the great outdoors at Elephantine Island during your travels in Aswan. Wander the riverfront and gardens in this relaxing area.
Aswan does not have Uber, at least when we visited in Feb 2025. Taxis rip you off, but you can try an app called inDrive (where you can bid on your ride) or Careem. Aswan the town is very beautiful - do visit Old Souk, Aswan Dam, and Isis Temple

Fewer hawkers chasing us than other Egyptian cities which made our experience all that more pleasant.

There are a lot of people desperate for work and wouldn't take no for an answer. It was kind of a turn off to the area.

"The owner is very friendly and speaks perfect English. He arranged for a taxi to pick us up at the airport and bring us to the hotel. The area in front of the hotel is beside the river. There was some construction happening on the the building that was a little inconvenient at the entrance, but the room was great! Cold air conditioning, comfortable beds ample sized room with beautiful view of the Nile and boats out the window."
"This was really an incredible expirience. It was like a dream come true to have a balcony on the nile. I really enjoyed the restaraunt as well. Somaya higagy and abdelrahman both provided outstanding customer service. I dream of staying here again!!"
