Nubian Kingdom Aragheed House

Bassam is a great host. We got a chance to understand more Nubian cultures like their music and coffee during our stay. The environment is very relaxing. The room is very clean and comfortable. Would definitely recommend this place.

The staff, hospitality, cleanness.

The shower head is fixed but not a big problem

Absolutely fantastic, great vibe, super friendly hosts who went out of their way to please!

I dunno where to start. The house is located in West Bank. We drove there from Luxor and was easy to find. It is located in a less tourist Nubian village which is really calm and relaxing. As soon you arrive you forget the stress of Luxor and East Bank and enjoy a moment of peace. The host gives you a welcome tea to set the tone. You listen the birds and enjoy the view from the Nile from the roof top. They provide you a Nubian breakfast which is slightly different from the Egyptian one. I will miss the Nubian bread! At night the host have friends around and do a Nubian coffee while playing music. The process is remarkable and tastes so different from any other coffee I ever had. The host is very welcoming and talks you through a bit of his culture. I felt so relaxed there that I wish I could have stayed more days. Everything is so clean and tidy and you feel like home. 10/10!!!!

The place is like a cozy family home. We really enjoyed our stay. The jabana coffee was out of the world and the music at night was soothing to the soul. Mr.bassam was really helpful and the dinner that he had arranged was also really delicious. The hospitality by their team makes you want to stay there longer.

The place is little difficult to be accessible by road from the other bank. So arranging transport for private excursions is little difficult

Fantastic stay because of Bassam and his cousin: they are just incredible people who really enjoy sharing their home and culture. The aunt cooked amazing late-night dinner and breakfast for us, everything was super relaxed and friendly, it all felt as if it came directly from the heart. Bassam even took the time to walk us through the village and some farming land to explain the culture and way of living of the Nubian people. If you are looking for a simple but special place with special people, then this is the right place for you.

All the glowing reviews are accurate. This was a magnificent find. From the huge breakfast to the 24hr open rooftop with hammock and kitchen. On the edge of the desert with views of the Nile. The train station directly across. Tombs of the Nobles at your doorstep. No peddling just an authentic space and experience. I wasn't keen on sharing a bathroom but the layout etc made it all seamless. I expect the price to increase dramatically soon. So if you want to experience it and it is an experience, do it soon.

Amazing time at Nubian Kingdom! I booked a trip to Aswan very last minute to get away from the craziness of Cairo and I dont regret it! The house provided peace and calmness from the roof top with views, to the surrounding village and the comfort of the rooms. The host and his family are very loving and welcoming! They assure that you are comfortable, keep everything clean and help you set up all your tours. Dinner time , the food was flavorful and a diverse set of dishes. Eating at the House made things a lot easier as well and didnt have to worry about going into the city. Lastly, the live music at night with Nubians was my favorite part. As an Egyptian, it was my first time I could fully immerse myself in their culture! The island is one big family and neighbors surrounding the area are also very sweet and its safe! I cant wait to stay in the Nubian Kingdom Aragheed House in the nearby future.
