I liked everything. The property is clean and the beds are super comfortable. I liked the hospitality of Mr. Omar, the host. He waited for me at the ferry pier and took me to the property by private boat at his own expenses so that I would not get lost. and when we reached the property he welcomed me with a delicious mint cocktail. He did everything he could to make me feel welcomed and safe. Everything was just perfect. The location is also good, in a quiet part of Elephantine Island but at a walking distance from the public ferry (they only charge 10 Egyptian pounds one way to reach the mainland). Thank you Mr Omar from my wonderful stay!

My stay at Wanees Hostel was amazing in every way! The place has a perfect location in the heart of the city, making everything easily accessible. The staff is very friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with a smile! The cleanliness, especially in the bathrooms, was excellent, which I truly appreciate. The tour arrangements were professional and helped me explore the city in a fun and smooth way. The atmosphere inside the hostel is comfortable and lively, and the staff adds a wonderful positive energy to the experience. I sincerely thank the whole team for their hospitality, and I will definitely come back again!

The hotel is in a privileged location, with stunning views of the Nile and direct access down a set of stairs. The surroundings are peaceful and beautiful, perfect to relax. The room was excellent: spotless, cozy, and tastefully decorated. Asmaa, the owner, was incredibly kind and welcoming. She also cooks wonderfully – if you’re lucky enough to try her traditional homemade food, you’ll truly enjoy it. The breakfasts were fantastic too, and one morning she even prepared a takeaway breakfast for our excursion. I absolutely recommend this place and would love to stay here again

A special local experience there, the first thing i liked most was the Nile way from the port to the hostel by boat .. when you book , Rehab ( the owner of the hostel ) send you to handle everything about the transportation with you .. She also can help you to visit any places in Aswan .. I booked with her Abu simple trip by shared car was great and the next day she recommended to me more places to visit in Aswan .. Also if you interested in the local food and life .. this is the best place for you.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. They gave me plenty of recommendations and did not overcharge for water (like many hostels and hotels do). The area felt safe as staff as well as locals from the village would assist if need be.

    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.

    Great owner who was very helpful, the room was nice, and I loved the view from the rooftop! The hostel is on the island and is very easy and cheap to reach by public ferry (takes 5mins). Walking around the island is also fun. Check out King Jamaica for some good food. :)

    This village is great if you want to experience local life. The staff here are really nice and always ready to help with a smile. It's very safe to walk around this island even at night. I felt comfortable with the Nubian people and trusted them completely. For those seeking conformity, this hostel may not align. But if you want to relax and enjoy the peacefulness while looking at the stars, this is the place to be

    David hostel can provide all options for Aswan Abu Simbel and Luxor with reasonable price. Sleeping in the hostel is recommended to backpackers. Free laundry service was great.
