5 Star Hotels in Aswan

It’s one of if not the best hotel in Aswan, situated in an exclusive island with an amazing view of the Nile and Nubian village. The staff was super comforting and lovely. There’s a shuttle boat that runs 24 hours to the main center of Aswan. I had an incredible time here. ＜3

After checking in and entering the room on the 8th floor of the hotel on February 6, a drone flew to the glass lamp on the balcony, and the glass exploded all over the floor. After the incident, the hotel manager explained that it had nothing to do with them and did not want to be responsible. He asked us to communicate and solve the problem with the drone flyer by ourselves, and did not mention their security negligence. After communicating with Ctrip customer service, they kept dragging their feet and not solving the problem. Every time when the time node agreed to give the result was reached, the reply they got was always that there was no result yet and more time was needed. No matter how good the hardware facilities are, I will never come to such a hotel again! In addition, I have already written an email to the Chinese Embassy in Egypt to complain and am waiting for the result.

The scenery of the hotel is very good, the Nile River can be seen from the restaurant, and the breakfast is not bad. The room facilities are relatively simple, similar to those of old domestic 3-star hotels. The bedsheets are a bit lacking in hygiene. Bring your own bedsheets. There are no USB charging ports, slippers, etc. The hotel is in an upper location, 20 minutes away from KFC, and there are few restaurants nearby. My friend who was traveling with me booked a room at Qunar. When I checked in, I was told that there was no reservation, so I almost didn't get it. Ctrip is relatively reliable.

I booked a river view deluxe room, but was given a standard king-size bed room. I asked for a king-size bed, but they put twin beds together to make a king-size bed. They didn't even make the beds. Do you think I'm a **? Apart from the superior room or the deluxe room, you really can't stay in the rooms below. The deluxe room is just a fast hotel, at least there is no odor. The rooms below are just guest houses, full of mold and old stinky smells. If you book a superior room and get a standard room, you must go to the front desk to complain and ask to stay in the room you booked.

The location of the hotel is a bit remote. I have reviewed some issues before, so I am mentally prepared, such as no slippers, unsuitable hair dryer socket, scattered rooms, no phone in the bedroom, inconvenient to contact the waiter, and having breakfast far away from the room and having to wait. Car transfer, etc. But all the dissatisfaction was erased by the view from the resort and breakfast room. I really recommend leaving more time for breakfast. It’s so comfortable to sit by the Nile River with the gentle breeze in the early morning.

The hotel is not as good as expected. There’s no Nile view from our room, located at 2nd floor nor from the restaurant, so we didn’t see Nile from the hotel at all. The service didn’t make us feel welcomed. The receptionist didn’t say hello or welcome, and looked impatient. When we asked if the hotel has first aid kit, as my husband was scratched by a cat and needed sanitary treatment, the receptionist just directly said “No”, although he promised to check and came back to us, he didn’t… The room is good but the bathroom is quite old and the AC heat function didn’t work - it’s just around 8 degree during night in Aswan.

The facilities are old, and the hardware conditions are not as good as those of domestic express hotels such as Home Inn and Hanting, but there is nothing we can do about it in Aswan. Hotels under RMB 1,000 basically have such poor conditions. If you want a better one, you have to spend RMB 2,000+. The service is still warm. My teammate had gastroenteritis and took a taxi to the hospital. The front desk saw something was wrong and came up to ask about it, offering to call a doctor for us and even running errands to buy medicine for us.

The main feature of this hotel is it's location on top of a hill overlooking the Nile. Also, you are able to use the facilities of its sister hotel, Basma Hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful, esp Meera who organised drivers and tour guide for us at short notice. The room was clean and spacious, and bathroom had all amenties, however the shower cubicle was on the small side and shower curtain just a couple cms too short so difficult to avoid getting the floor wet.
