Great location, less than 5 minutes to the ferry. We arrived at 3am and had arranged for someone to pick us up and a private boat through the guesthouse. All went perfectly. They helped us arrange tours as well! Great air con, wifi, breakfast was nice, you can get food from a local cafe delivered and the staff were helpful.

Offering garden views, Nuba Heart is an accommodation situated in Aswan, 24 km from Kitchener's Island and 25 km from Aswan High Dam. The property has mountain and river views, and is 7.6 km from Aga Khan Mausoleum. The guest house features family rooms.

Very friendly Host. Clean and nice rooms, comfortable beds. Nice area to experience Nubian culture and people. Much more quiet than on the other loud side full with scammers. On this westbank hotel side you can relax, without 1000 people trying to constantly sell you something. Very good food from the Host. Cheap to reach side with boat (10 EPG per person). Would recommend this host and hotel to everybody. 👍🏼

The guest house ran by Mohammed was absolutely perfect. The room was very clean and large, the shower was hot and powerful, the beds were comfortable. Mohammed is an excellent owner who helped organise our trip to Abu Simbel for a fair price and zero hassle. He speaks good English and is very friendly. He was able to answer all our questions and make good unbiased recommendations. It's located in a very safe Nubian area, the local people are some of the kindest I have ever met. I dropped my wallet and didn't notice until the next day, incredibly it was returned to me via Mohammed with all the cash still inside! My great thanks to both the woman that returned it and to Mohammed for liaising with her. The guest house is only 1 minute walk from the public ferry which runs all day/evening and is very reasonable at 10 Egyptian pounds each way. I would definitely stay here again if visiting Aswan.

It's a fairly simple guest house on Elephantine Island. The staff are friendly and warm. Food is awesomely delicious (breakfast). Best breakfast I had in my Egypt trip. Very hearty and flavourful. And the guest house is right by the Nile River, facing the West Bank where the tombs on the hills are fairly visible. The sunrise and sunset is magnificent. The view is great and unobstructed.

    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!

    We enjoyed a lot our stay in Abazido! The property is located on an island with very good connection to the city Center. It is at the quiet side of the island, looking over the botanical garden and the dessert. I think this is the best we can get while staying centrally. The room is very clean and well equipped. We loved spending our time on the rooftop, sunbathing and enjoying the magnificent river view. The host is very helpful and reliable. We highly recommend it!

    Great location on Elephante meant lovely Nile views and roof top terrace which was excellent for both starting and ending the day. Mohammed is a wealth of information and a great host and made the stay very memorable. He was able to arrange cars for temple visits and a private ferry to get from island to mainland all very seamlessly and not a bit pushy. Highly recommend a stay at Meshra Katto.

    The guesthouse is authentic, beautiful, newly painted with vibrant colours, and we had a really charming and clean room with aircondition and hairdryer. Adan was a nice host, and the food was good (we had breakfast and dinner). We enjoyed our stay.

    David, the owner is an extraordinary man, he helps you with everything. Even if the location is somewhat far from the city center, minibuses run all the time at a ridiculously low price, 2.5 Egyptian pounds per trip, and nearby you can find good quality and cheap street food. Stay at David Hostel!

    Very friendly host, guest house is on the west bank (village), but the owner brings you with his boat to the east bank (Aswan city) whenever you want. Good breakfast. Nice room and nice view from the garden where the breakfast is served. We really enjoyed the location in the small village instead of the buzzling city of Aswan. Price for the airport shuttle service is not the cheapest, but keep in mind that Careem and Uber are not servicing Aswan airport and the price for the driver is okay.
