Find 4-Star Hotels in Aswan

"After seeing so many negative reviews, I booked this hotel with some trepidation. I'd like to say, the hotel wasn't as bad as the negative reviews suggested; on the contrary, it was quite good overall. First, the location: perched on a hilltop next to the Old Falls, offering a commanding view of both the Falls and the Nile. The hotel has two swimming pools: a larger one in the Old Basma and a smaller one at the top of the hill, which is where I booked the Basam Executive Club. The smaller one is quite small, but thankfully, it's high up and offers a great view. Secondly, the rooms seemed renovated, and the furniture and amenities weren't outdated. Upon arrival, I was even upgraded to a suite, which had a large terrace, a living room, a sofa, and a bar. It was spacious and very comfortable for two people. Finally, the service: the staff were very friendly. Although some didn't speak English, they were always willing to help, or call someone who did. They didn't ask for tips for luggage, etc. The room was clean, and they even provided welcome fruit and snacks. Overall, it was a very good experience."

"This is a very contradictory B&B hotel that I don't know if it is worth recommending. Its shortcomings and advantages are very prominent. It is suitable for Internet celebrities to make photos (the following photos are all original photos without retouching), but it is not suitable for anyone who has certain requirements for ”accommodation” itself. If you can find any cheap + clean + similar scenery alternative hotel, it is recommended to change it, but if it is just for taking pictures and scenery, it may be ranked at the top in Nubian Village. First of all, you have to be able to tolerate: 1. The hotel price is not cost-effective in the peak season, and the B&B offers the price of a five-star hotel. 2. Poor room facilities, rough-style furniture and narrow rooms, worrying bed sheets, bathroom shower water overflowing and drainage is useless, no slippers, toothbrushes, hair dryers (phone front desk can provide). 3. The breakfast is self-service and extremely simple and unpalatable, unlike some people who commented on the set and inexplicably praised it. 4. Tolerate or pay more to continue to tolerate the complaints of the chartered driver to drive into Nubian Village, and then contact the hotel by yourself in the middle of the night to change to a three-wheeled motorcycle in the deserted and dark mountains for 15 minutes to doubt life and reach the mountaintop hotel. 5. Other prices are very unreasonable. We originally wanted to book dinner for the New Year's Eve party, but it cost 100 US dollars per person... What did we get here? 1. The balcony of the room can see the unbeatable sunrise on the west bank of the Nile. We witnessed the first light of 2025 here at 6 am. 2. The various poses in the cultural buildings of the Nubian Village are very photogenic. 3. The desert next to the hotel is very photogenic. 4. A very special cultural experience of a group of tourists jumping up and down the mountain in a row of three-wheeled vehicles. 5. The hotel service staff is relatively friendly. Finally, it is explained that Egypt is not a country where tipping is allowed. Carrying luggage is a basic service of any hotel in their country. No one asked for tips during the entire stay."

"Exceeded my expectation"

"It was late at night when we landed on the island. We left before dawn. I felt a bit disappointed that I didn’t see the river view. I hope I can come again next time. After all, it’s only over a hundred dollars. It’s good to have an outdoor private bath."

"We stay 2 nights here to go to Abu Simbel temple. The staff is friendly and helpful. Good experience with day trip and tour with the help from hotel."

"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."
