Our stay at Kashta Guest House on Elephantine Island, Aswan, was fantastic. The host was incredibly welcoming and made us feel at home from the start. The breakfast was excellent, with fresh and delicious local flavors. The location is perfect, offering a peaceful atmosphere,, yet still close to the main sights. The guest house itself is charming, clean, and well-maintained, making it an ideal place to stay in Aswan. Highly recommended!

Doroka is the best hotel in the Nubian village: beautiful, authentic, quiet and welcoming. The room is great: amazing view on the Nile, nice balcony, good AC, comfortable bed and beautiful decoration. And the staff is the best! Everyone is so kind, welcoming, helpful and positive. The food is also really good! Ahmed, the hotel manager, helped me to navigate Aswan activities and options. He organized private tours for me at a very fair price and gave me some good pieces of advice so that I don't get scammed. He is a very reliable, helpful and friendly manager. I loved my stay at Doroka Nubian house and I would recommend it to anyone wanting to relax in a beautiful environment while visiting the main attractions of Aswan.

The place is amazing, a fantastic location that is unparalleled in all of Aswan. The service is excellent. The reception is more than wonderful. The owner of the house pays attention to all the details. There is also a tuk-tuk in the hotel that you can use to take to the main street. I will come back again.

Gandhi and all of the staff. The perfect location. The good vibe created between the people hosted. The Nile right there. The view from the rooftop. The friendly neighbourhood. Everything was really amazing

If you are in a tight budget, it's fine to book place. It's a bit noisy. Compact, elevator is good for 4 person. Easy to find the place but not accurate in the map. Long time waiting for the in charge to reply for my call. I asked every single person along the way where is that place exactly. Confusing

My stay at the Oasis hostel was quite comfortable. Very clean rooms, friendly staff. Each room has locker space . I was initially a bit hesitant as a solo female traveller , but the hostel is pretty safe and has a separate wing for women. The kitchen and dining room also came in handy !

The manager Shoaib could not do enough for me. He was fantastic! I was a female travelling alone arriving early hours in the morning and he arranged a cheap transfer and I was taken to my accommodation safely and breakfast was ordered the next morning. I had clear directions and suggestions for activities in the day. I had a comfortable sleep and all facilities were nice and clean. Would definitely recommend and can’t wait to return 😃

Staff were friendly, good location. Very clean and the beds had privacy curtains, plug, small safe within bunk for small valuables and lockers under beds. Nice cosy hostel, I didn't socialise much as I was so tired but chatted and spent the day with a few other guests the next day, people were chilling downstairs in the evening which seemed like a nice vibe.

We were very impressed by the humility and the genuine service of the Nubian hosts. Mostapha, the owner of the building where the hostel is located, took us for a beautiful tour of the nile around Aswan in which we watched rare birds at the nearby protectorate, swam at bank of the river in a beautiful and crystal clean location, and finally, visited the lovely nubian village (gharb suheil). The breakfast was satisfactory, the room was spacious, and the private bathroom, located outside the room was workable. Great budget choice!

Ahmed is a wonderful host. From the moment I walked in the door, he did everything he could to make me feel at home in the UAE. His guidance for coming from the airport was also helpful. Note that there is no outside signage and the guesthouse is actually a converted 8th floor flat in a standard apartment bloc. For a budget stay I felt incredibly safe and comfortable throughout. There is a shared kitchen you can use plus two bathrooms, and the place is just a few mins ride from the bus stop (taxis are a necessity in Abu Dhabi).

Just contact the person in charge. And I found Mr Mahmoud guide me to be arrived on the hostel location. He was so polite and a nice person and will help you to reach your room. Cheap and worthy to stay as traveller because the room, toilet, and shared kithcen is clean. I recommend this place to stay as cheap and have a lot of nice restaurant arround.
