The island was so quiet and pieceful. The best place to stay in Aswan. People very kind, good restaurants and sunset on the Nile amazing. Omar was very kind and welcoming at every hours. He made the difference in our stay and we'd come back thanks to him!

We had the most amazing experience here. After an unfortunate mishap (scam) from a bus company in Aswan, we arrived tired, sneezy, and grumpy. Quite literally, as soon as we got here our mood turned around. The staff is friendly, helpful, and welcoming. The guest house itself is clean with the most beautiful view and lots of shade. We actually ended up eating breakfast, lunch and dinner here during our stay because the food was just that good. This place redeemed the end of our Egypt adventure. A special thanks goes out to Mr Awat, the manager for his hospitality and kindness. We cannot recommend Doroka Guesthouse enough.

Best accomodation ever on my Egypt trip. The owner gave me most of useful information which you need during your stay. You can rely on him to book all services around Aswan with reasonable price. Good view from room and their small arrea to Nile river, and they have a small front yard with a big fan to cool down after a hot day trip.

I had an amazing experience in this hostel! I usually travel a lot and I've been staying in hotels lately, but I decided to give a hostel a try in Aswan and spent a wonderful time! I wish I would have stayed longer because the city is lovely! The recepcionist Jimmy was super nice and helpful. The place is super clean and has relaxing vibes and it is located in the 4th floor in a building inside the Old Market. I would definitely go back!

This is an excellent apartment, everything is super clean, we especially liked the rooftop where you can sit and enjoy the astonishing view of the Nile. Our room also had a wonderful view on the Nile and we had air-condition which works perfectly well in these hot days. The host is extremely helpful and kind, he was literally available 24 hours for us, he waited for us at midnight when we arrived to Aswan, he gave us plenty of advice for food and shops and everything else, he organized an excellent tour to Abu Simbel where we could stay longer than expected (which is awesome), and he also allowed us to leave our luggage in the hotel after check-out for the whole day. The reception works 24/7. We absolutely recommend this apartment to everyone! We look forward to coming to Seko again!

We had a wonderful stay here. Our room offered a stunning view of the Nile, and the view from the dining area is simply magnificent. The food was delicious — I honestly had the best falafel of our entire trip here. The hostess was incredibly helpful, assisting us with all our taxi bookings and organizing a tour to Elephantine Island with her daughter, who turned out to be the best guide we had in Egypt. She was extremely knowledgeable, and it was clear how much she genuinely loves history and culture, which made the experience even more special. The beds were very comfortable, and we truly enjoyed staying here and discovering a bit of Nubian culture along the way.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. They gave me plenty of recommendations and did not overcharge for water (like many hostels and hotels do). The area felt safe as staff as well as locals from the village would assist if need be.

Property is in a quiet area of Aswan, away from the noisy city. Crossing the street it has an exclusive area to swim into the Nile river or do some kayaking, which are rented for a cheap price. They also offer water and soft drinks and a small breakfast included. You can easily spend many days relaxing in the hostel, without even leaving to do attractions.

Great owner who was very helpful, the room was nice, and I loved the view from the rooftop! The hostel is on the island and is very easy and cheap to reach by public ferry (takes 5mins). Walking around the island is also fun. Check out King Jamaica for some good food. :)
