Great location in the elephantine island, where you can find a lot of great restaurants. We did a nice private Falucca boat trip with them for a good price. The rooms are simple but clean.

This. Was. Amazing. Just so much more and better than we could ever expect. I went here with my fiancé in November and it was super!
Let's start with the simple, but clean and tidy rooms. Airconditioning, en suite bathroom, the cleanliness, even the sheets smelled really nice.
Then the breakfast. I spent alot of mornings in Egypt and had alot of different breakfasts, but without a doubt, this was one of the best I've had. Everything was homemade and filled with love, just comforting and an amazing start of our days.
And the most incredible and remarkble aspect of our stay here was the staff. Moussa, Mohamed, the manager, the ladies of the kitchen, the young captains; every single one of them were going above and beyond for us, in a super relaxed, friendly and heartwarming way.
This stay and especially the staff deserve more than a 10 in my opinion. We will definitely be back here and we'll make sure we stay at least a week.
Thanks to everyone, we will never forget you & see you soon!

Elephantine island is the place to stay in Aswan. And Basmatic Nubian Guesthouse is a peaceful, beautiful location. The terrasse has a lovely view. Mohammed was a great host, and helped us book the day trip to Abu Simbel and transport to Luxor. I would recommend :)

Everything! The place is very nice clean and cozy! And the owner is the kindest person you could ever meet. We shared a lot of time talking and he was explaining a lot about the area, and touristic points, he also helped me with indications in Arabic in a paper. He also invited me a very tasty fruit juice.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful, peaceful guesthouse on Elephant Island. Our room was spotlessly clean and offered an amazing view of the Nile from the balcony. The real highlight of our stay was the host family – they are incredibly warm-hearted and took such thoughtful care of us, always with a respectful and unobtrusive approach. We were even able to use the washing machine free of charge, which was a huge help during our travels.
We arranged a trip to Abu Simbel and a two-day felucca tour including subsequent transport to Luxor with Ahmed. He ensured everything ran smoothly by checking in with us during the tours, making sure we were comfortable and everything was going well. The prices were fair, and we truly felt looked after.
We can’t recommend this guesthouse enough – it was the best accommodation we experienced on our entire trip.

Good location for a guest house and a very helpful owner who can organise transport and sightseeing. His location is close to cafes and restaurants on the island. The island is free from noise and traffic which means no cars or jeeps and you can walk through nubian villages and houses.

We stayed one night at Crystala guest house. The owners Ahmed and Yousra were very welcoming. Our room was very clean and comfortable and we enjoyed the proximity with the ferry and the nice restaurants around.
I highly recommend this place if you are staying in Elephantine island.
Warm and welcoming guest houses are ideal for travellers who prefer unfussy accommodation with a personal touch. They are usually family-run, and your host will provide local recommendations and optional meals. Often cheaper than regular hotels, guest houses can also feature a cosy living room and a garden.
A great, quiet guesthouse with a very kind, helpful host. Abu will go out of his way to make sure you have what you need and are comfortable. I would stay here again.
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.
Zolly was and excellent host, his hospitality was warm and welcoming and he couldn’t be more accommodating. The guest house it’s self is a nice spot over over views over the Nile and Aswan. Facilities are all up to scratch and the rooms well equipped. The guesthouse offers excellent value for money and you can put a price on the hospitality Zolly offers .
The host was amazingly friendly, even inviting us to his nieces engagement party while we were there and we got to experience some authentic Nubian food!
The location is great, much quieter than staying on the east bank but also just a short and very cheap ferry ride over to the hustle and bustle.
The room was nice and clean with a bathroom, ceiling fan, heaps of cupboard space, supplied towels and a really comfy bed.
Would definitely reccomend!
- great host Ahmed and his family made our stay wonderful; he waited for us at the train station and took us to his guest house; made sure we have everything we need and helped organize trips for us; also helped us with getting medical help and medications
- delicious breakfast that you can enjoy with the river view
- clean room with AC
- guest house location is calm and quiet
This is a lovely, quaint guest house on the quiet side of Elephantine. We loved how peaceful it was and away from the hustle and bustle of the town: Mohammed and Basser were very accommodating hosts throughout the stay. A highlight being we got to go on Mohammed’s boat for a sunset journey on the Nile. Highly recommend!
Great location next to the Nile and 5 minutes on foot from the ferry. Also very nice rooftop to chill by the river. The room was clean, quiet and comfortable. Ahmed is a great host, we were able to take our breakfast in a bag when we had to leave at 4am. He can also organize a trip to Abu Simbel at a reasonable price.
Very nice location with a wonderful panorama over the Nile river and the desert,
very quiet area, the city center is still easily reachable by foot or minibus (cheap fares)
Friendly staff
Possibility to rent a kayak directly from the hostel
This is a great location, easy to access from the elephantine ferry boat port for a cheap ride and short walk. nice and peaceful. great host who is very helpful and organised felucca rides, boat rides and trip to Abu Simbel for us. there is a wee restaurant next door with yummy food - it takes a while to cook but is a nice relaxing atmosphere. breakfast is decent enough and served on the rooftop. the host is Nubian and the house is in a Nubian village. I highly recommend BAYT ZAINA.
Great place to stay in Aswan, in the peaceful, quiet and charming island of Elephantine. Gasser is a great host, honest and kind, and makes your visit to the island unforgettable.
