Hotels don't come more special than this amazing place. The historic building has entertained the likes of Winston Churchill, Agatha Christie, Princess Diana at al. Accommodation is mainly in a modern building 50 metres away with spectacular views of the Nile. Staying here is expensive but the experience justifies it.

Clean good quality room with a view of the Nile. Located within walking distance from the main strip (where boats could be taken to nearby islands and Nubian village). Aswan museum and unfinished obelisk were also right nearby. Personal touches by the cleaning staff were welcomed. Staff were relaxed on pool closing time which we appreciated for an early evening swim.

The Hotel itself is very nice and feels like an oriental deam from 1001 nights. it is very beautifully architected and built, very colorful and has great facilities, incl. a fantastic pool. However, the best thing about the hotel is its location at the top of a hill with incredible views of the surrounding desert and the river Nile below. The views are absolutely stunning from everywhere at the property incl. all the rooms.

Unlike Cairo, Aswan is much slower paced and people are much nicer. The city has several historical sites, temples, and islands. The views and food are amazing. I’m skipping Cairo on my next trip to Egypt and coming straight to Aswan and Luxor.

A very beatiful place to relax and enjoy the sun during winter.
We felt very safe and happy.
The local market is great it has unique and authentic goods.
The philae Temple is great it has spots to take photos and great views.
We enjoyed the Botonical Garden very much as it has plants from all over the world.
The feluca ride is one of the best things we enjoyed but first you have to agree on the price.

Tombs of the Nobles were really neat if you can make it over to the other bank. Watch out for the camel guys there though. We got roped into $50 camel rides.
Aswan was probably our least favorite stop in Egypt. Harassment by salespeople was higher here than at the Great Pyramids, and much higher than Luxor! We couldn't walk anywhere at anytime of the day without a salesperson walking with us for several blocks. And as soon as they were done, someone else would take over. Its too bad, I think the corniche could be a really pretty walk!

Aswan is pleasant pretty city on upper Nile within easy day excursion to Abu Simbel. Don't ride camel at Giza, ride one at Aswan out into the desert. Ride felucca boat around Elephantine Island. Eat at King Jamaica restaurant. Stop to see unfinished obelisk

Everyone was so friendly and helpful.
Everyone was so friendly and helpful.
I didn’t realize that the hotel was undergoing a little construction. It looked like they were upgrading their ramp. This meant we had to carry our bags up the stairs to the lobby.
The property is beautiful and has a terrific view of the town and we could see the Nile from our room. The restaurant was very good- we had dinner there.
BTW the construction noise never bothered us. We couldn’t hear it at all.

If you are doing the Initiatic path, Elephantine Island is so perfect. We stayed at Mango Tree (feel like exotic move stars) and Nubian Dreams (also a restaurant but we scored their top floor room and that is super fun) We also stayed at Nubian Palace, oh my gosh. Take a little private ferry and go to that place. Its so memorable. Philae temple was set up from our host at Nubian Palace (which we usually never do but she is a badass and handles it so you don't have to negotiate to and from the ferry marina) Stay on the west bank. Never the east. Its so loud and full of hustle. The west bank is like real Egypt. Lovely. Easy to start the temple path to Abu Simbel by hopping on a local large bus. Fun, cheap, easy. (Its a little more coming back but its all very cheap so be nice and accept the system) From here you can take a train, bus or private taxi to Kom Ombo and Edfu as you make your way to Luxor. (ALSO STAY ON THE WEST BANK in luxor) What a lovely quiet and profoundly spiritual adventure.
Location of hotel is central and facing the river. Rooms are dated can be a tad noisy as it's facing the road. Was only here for a night's sleep and check'd out at 4am. We contacted the hotel 2 wks before our arrival to arrange for an airport pickup at Aswan, transport to&from Abu Simbel and a 2 nights river cruise from Aswan to Luxor. Hotel would provide a takeaway b'fast box before A.Simbel pickup, was a nice arrangement. Many thanks to Ms Sondos and team for coordinating and ensuring we had a great experience. We did!
This hotel is really good, in particular when compared to other hotels in Aswan/Egypt. The location is on an island in the Nile, so you will need to get there with the boat, which was actually very easy. Rooms are pretty big and really clean, with solid view on the Nile, depending on your position. I did not understand which rooms are the ones with the nice balcony and the Nile view, but most of them aren't. There is a heated swimming pool outdoor, so you can swim even if the temperature is not that high.
I was all over Egypt for 3 weeks, and this was my favorite place - even when compared to fancy hotels in Luxor - because they are so well organized. Mohammed was great. The trips we organized through them were cheaper than on sites like Viator, and offered pickup directly from the island. You should definitely plan trips through them. Elephantine island itself was also very nice and I highly recommend staying there over the mainland. Also, the A/C was powerful enough even when it was 42 outside.
This is a great place to stay in Aswan. The room is nice with comfortable beds. The facilities are clean and the shower has plenty of hot water. Ahmed was a fantastic host, doing everything to make sure we had a good stay. He provided extra blankets when it was cold and a hair dryer. He also arranged a great trip to Abu Simbel for us. We would certainly stay again. A very good place to eat, only five minutes walk away, with excellent, freshly cooked Egyptian food is Kana Kato.
I would recommend anyone travels to Aswan book this. The host really gives me a real flavour of Nubian life style and he is so good in arranging all your travels hassle free with a reasonable price.
Plus the juice is insanely good and internet quicker than 5 star hotel I have lived in Cairo and Luxor.
I rarely left any comment but this is a solid recommendation from me, especially if you like me who travels with no clear agenda booked ahead.
This is the nicest place I have been in Egypt.
Mango hostel is a very beautiful hotel, with colors everywhere and plants. It’s not in the city but in the island just in front (5 min by public boat, very easy) so it’s quiet and chill.
The room was comfortable and all clean.
What was the best, is the staff. They are all very kind, and make sure you feel good and safe. They also arrange you tour if you need.
A little heaven.
This place the BEST PLACE TO STAY in all egypt..Very very peacefull place near the Nile. The hotel, rooms, restaurant very clean and very comfy. The staff very friendly and helpful. Kafana help us to organize all our tours. İf you want to stay clean comfy and peacefull place in Aswan, dont think just stay there. We have spent three magical nights there, everything is amazing.
Best stay in our two weeks in Egypt!
The person is very honest and he doesn't insist on anything. We even forget a jacket in a taxi from Aswan to Luxor and he managed everything to send it to our hotel in Luxor for FREE which is not so common in Egypt!
It s a tradionnal house, very peaceful, breakfeast is delicious. If you are looking for a real experience you go for it!
Staff especially Reko is very friend and help with everything such as your or text booking but there’s always room for negotiation. The best thing about the guest house is the view, I see Nile from my window. it’s located in elephantine island which means you will need to prepare 5 Egyptian pounds each time for ferry but it runs every 3-5 min so it’s not an issue.
Here you get the most Important thing you need in Egypt: Honesty :) The owner of this Hotel, helped us in so many ways, he didn't needed to. Highly recommend this Place. Very friendly Personal and also his son was very frienldy and helping. The Food was very very good. Thanks for having us. Next time we visit assuan, we will defenetly book here again :)
The property is located walking distance from the Nile bank “Corneish”. Around 10 min walk from Aswan main train station and close to the main market. Staff is really friendly and due to Eid-I guess the hotel wasn’t full- they checked us in really early and allowed us to check out at 3. Breakfast was ok but the view was 😍. Thank you Happi team
Our hotel manager Selim made sure everything was arranged from boat rides into Aswan, rides to the airport, and great customer service at the hotel. The chef Mahmoud was very nice to us well, helping with a series of early starters that I know he didn't sleep a ton because of. The hotel is beautiful, would highly recommend.
Appreciated Mr.Islam Mr.Mustafa very good model’s and mindset to deal with them all support given flexibility politely. Definitely we plan to visit this hotel again .
Also special thanks to Mrs / Rawan who organised our booking on phone.
Thanks .
The rooms were clean, very comfortable, and the staff was amazing. They went over and beyond to help us and make our stay enjoyable Thank you Mohamed for being so kind and helpful. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Aswan.
The place its self is absolutely gorgeous! The hotel is stunning and in a stunning location (a bit far from the town/city of Aswan, but in an absolutely amazing Nubian village.) The food it good. It is a nice and calm place.
Very nice hotel and facilities, including a very good breakfast in a wonderful dining area on the river. The pool, and facilities were very nice. This is an exceptional place to stay in Aswan, and I was very happy overall
the hotel was very nice. Staff was very friendly and helpful. we only stayed for one night when we arrived to Aswan, but would love to have an opportunity to stay longer next time. Breakfast was great.
