Very nice place! The owner picked me up at the ferry stop with his private boat, which is much easier than taking my bags and walking to the place (there's no transit options but your feet on Elephantine island) Very clear room. Great shower, great wifi, great AC. Elephantine island is very lovely, quiet and peaceful. Free homemade breakfast is lovely as well. Highly recommend 👍🏻

It's in the heart of the village, near all shops and restaurants. The room had river view and the restaurant is good, cheap and by the river. Staff is very helpful and offered to contact the agency taking us to Abu Simbel to make sure they were coming to pick us up. Highly recommended. Definitely the nicest place to stay in Aswan

Gandhi is just really nice and helpful! I love the view of this place - one of a kind - and that it is directly at the nile (with kayaking options)!

This is a best place to stay in Aswan, for a cheap price you get nice and clean room, the host is very kind and helped us a lot, definitely the best deal I’ve made in Egypt and you even get a good breakfast. Don’t be afraid of the neighbourhood after the first sight, people from Aswan are nice and welcoming, just beware of the store on the corner, the owner’s brother tried to rob us.

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!

Very beautiful place, well taken care of, with colorful paintings on the walls, Nubian style. The owners were very kind and welcoming. They helped us with the trip to Abu Simbel and with transfers. They welcomed us with a cup of mint tea, which they grow themselves. The breakfast they prepared was delicious and very big. Amazing quality for good price. Strongly recommend!

The hotel is in a privileged location, with stunning views of the Nile and direct access down a set of stairs. The surroundings are peaceful and beautiful, perfect to relax. The room was excellent: spotless, cozy, and tastefully decorated. Asmaa, the owner, was incredibly kind and welcoming. She also cooks wonderfully – if you’re lucky enough to try her traditional homemade food, you’ll truly enjoy it. The breakfasts were fantastic too, and one morning she even prepared a takeaway breakfast for our excursion. I absolutely recommend this place and would love to stay here again

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. :)
