Endroit hors du temps
Très bonne place avec vue sur le Nil, chambre propre, personnel aux petits soins. Restaurant sur place, très bon et très accessible. L’hôtel offre des services de taxi pour venir vous chercher à l’aéroport, visiter Philae ainsi qu’un bateau pour aller à Assouan et se baigner dans le Nil (très belle expérience!) Ne pas hésiter à négocier les prix des excursions 😉

You can stay in Nubian village
Nice hotel to stay in Nubia village which is a must-visit place when you come to Aswan. The only difficult thing was, the only way to get to the hotel is by car or by expensive boat.

Great Stay. Great Food. Great Location.
The Nubian Village was fun, but neither of us were keen on shopping. But the hotel itself was very nice and a different experience for us. The food was wonderful and the staff very helpful and very friendly.

This is a super unique and fun property! We would definitely recommend anyone staying in/around Aswan to stay here! It’s a bit out of the way, but that makes it off the beaten path. Big cars can’t get back to it so we did need to walk a little ways to get there, but it is worth it! The rooms are beautifully painted, with a cool-looking brick dome ceiling and a cute balcony that overlooks the Nile. The restaurant has AMAZING food. We would recommend you eat more than just breakfast here. All the staff are so nice. The one downside is the wifi isn’t super strong in the rooms - it kept cutting in & out, but it does work well in the restaurant area. The manager is also very kind and helped us book a private driver to Abu Simbel. We loved our stay and would definitely recommend you stay at this place!

HAPPIEST HOTEL ON THE NILE!
Kato Waidi House is a boutique place and the dhappiest hotel on the NIle. This house is smack dab in the middle of the action. It is literally on the nile and a man named Fufu takes you everywhere in his boat...very cool. The outdoor dining is not only delicious, beautiful and food is love here! One night a group of local musicians came and everyone danced....The rooms are happy, colorful, so clean its crazy, comfortable, super good AC, and the best mulit task bathroom ever (one room shower, sink, W/C all in one. Love that. OK, the best thing is the hotel is located in a Nubian village and how cool is that...fun shopping, lots of good loot. I give this place : 100%, A++++

We loved this place! Such a pleasant surprise. It’s right in the tiny little heart of Nubian village so all the little shops are right there. The colors are great and the staff was on it and so so nice. I’d stay again for sure!

Peaceful stay in Nubian village
Nestled in the colourful Nubian village just beside the Nile, Kato Waidi is truly a place of ultimate calm and peace. Our room was spacious, east facing and offered superb view of the river. The manager and most other staff speak good English and helped us with boat tour and transfer to train station. The breakfast was super tasty, fresh and came with big portion size. They even packed us breakfast boxes for our early morning tour to Abu Simbel. Wifi signal was also fair throughout the property. We recommend strongly.

This facility is situated in the Nubian village. It is remote from the city of Aswan. The Nubian village is dirty. Dog, horse and camel dong everywhere as it is everywhere in Egypt. I have only praise for this venue. The room are comfortable and just beautifull and colorfull. It is well kept, clean, managed by the friendliest people I have ever met. People from surrounding venues come here in the afternoon and evening to spend some time in their wonderfull courtyard. They took the best of care of me and even provided an excursion to Abou Simbel when the one that I booked before failed..and at one six of the price of the other. Food is standard tourist menu but if you talk to the chef, he will bend over backwards to make you what you want. Of all the places I stayed in Cairo, Luxor , Dalhabia and Luxor, this was by far the best. Go out, dont step in the dong and talk to the vendors. I made a lot of friends among them and we earned mutual respect. Thank you everybody at Kato Waidi Nubian house.
