The pictures are so wrong, most of those amenities does not exist anymore, pictures are probably very old, this place hasn’t been updated since then, we requested a non-smoking room and they give us a smoker, after talking to front desk and ask for a room change, the person said - we will fix it - and sent a housekeeping person with a air freshener and spray here and there … didn’t do anything, the smell was so strong and penetrated in walls, curtains and linens, the “ac” filter was full of smoke and cigarette smell, this was so disgusting and a huge health hazard, was hard to breathe. The phone never worked , no toilet paper, the fan in the bathroom was broken, doors and windows didn’t locked, the “AC” was probably from 1960 same as the pictures, while running ( because it stops several times ) was so loud that was hard to listen to anything else , never cool down the little room even set to the minimum temperature, just made it super humid ( plus smoke smell), a complete NIGHTMARE. We had to get our stuff and don’t spend the night there.

Great location but no service
Super nice balcony view overseeing Nile River. Location less than 10 mins walk to train station. Old hotel that aircon remote was not working for one room and another doesn’t have aircon for 3 nights. Reported to staff but no one attend to issue. No cleaning service for throughout stay for 3 nights. Breakfast was provided but very limited variety. Better to eat out nearby.

Do not stay here. I read the prior reviews and reluctantly stayed here due to no other availability when I landed in Aswan. Upon arrival the bedroom was dirty, hair on the sheets, NO OPERATING HEATER, stains on bed pillows and dirty chairs. My family and I slept using our jackets as blankets as linens were not clean. You could hear music and the hustle and bustle of outside well into 2/3am. The staff however was very polite and friendly. Expedia said we could pay in local currency, but upon arrival they said Expedia charges them and they wanted US dollars instead. Location was great, however I would give this hotel 0 stars if I could.

I tried to book and the cost was showing as £89 including local taxs and charges, when I got there I was charged 4032.EGP works out in uk £126.00. That was £36. pounds over the price. We had a twin room the sheets on the bed had already been slept in I could smell that. The next day I told them about the bed and it was changed.

This place was outdated, dirty and food was not good. Location was good. I will request a refund paid $150 a night and saw the rate for $30. Do not pay more then $30 for this place. Staff does not speak English. One door main a check in lady friendly. Can’t not even provide a knife to cut an apple because the kitchen was close really!!

Worst hotel I have ever stayed
This review is based on my stay (28th-30th December 2022). I paid $260.00 for two nights (nightmare!) 1. Location is perfect. THEY DO NOT HAVE ANY FREE AIRPORT SHUTTLE. They are located 30 Km away from the Aswan airport. Airport transfer may cost you 30-60 USD for each person. 2. Rooms, are dirty, smelly, and very old. 3. Airconditioning system does not work. 4. Bathroom is dirty. 5. Breakfast is the worst. The second cup of tea or coffee will be charged, in case you want to have it. 6. Only good for someone who speaks Arabic.

Not worth it
It was definitely not worth the money, especially for Egypt. Rooms were not clean, no soap, no towels, no paper towels. My toilet was broken and had to ask to be moved otherwise I would have spent the entire night listening to them attempt to fix it. Moved to a room next to a party, which the Hotel did take care of. the location is good if you want to stay next to the train station, which is why I chose it in the first place, but it was not worth the money. This should be a $30 a nigh Hotel, max and not $50.

A very ordinary offering that in no way reflects a three star rating. Check in was difficult, wifi hopeless, breakfast options limited, TV didn’t work consistently- the place is just not up to the required grade. Not cheap by any means, better alternatives exist I’m sure, although Aswan is a town you don’t need to spend much time in. Good if you like deserts! Get in and get out fast as possible is my advice.

When we arrived at night it was dark and the lobby looked old but in the morning with the lights on, it is a lovely, new hotel. The room was comfortable, the staff helpful, and the surrounding area walkable--if you can ignore the persistence of vendors who will not let you just enjoy the city.

All good in general. Travel assistance staff have their own interests at heart and were not helpful to the budget traveler. Front of desk manager could not have been more helpful. A Nice hotel, central to rail station with markets at the back, and ferry harbour and tomb of the nobles to look over. Pretty.

Good budget hotel close to Aswan train station. This hotel can provide you with box breakfast for early morning tour to Abu Simbel, etc., free of charge. The facility is a bit old, but you will get what you paid for. The hot water tank was switched off due to a mistake by room maid. So, I have to put up with cold shower for the 1st night. But once the hot water tank was switched on, I was able to take a decent, hot shower for the 2nd night. The sunset view from the roof was good, free bonus.

I took one look at this hotel and left it is very run down and dirty. The pictures must have been taken a long time ago as the furniture is shabby and old. The was not a sole in this hotel as there are much better options with the economy in Egypt the way it is.
