Nubian Lotus

Food was expired that was presented to us. The room smelled awful , the linen smelled real bad. Room was stuffy, windows don't open, air conditioner doesn't work. Won't stay thsts or send anyone to stay there. Waste of money and time, ruined our 3 days.

See above.

We got 2 rooms in an apartment with a spacious living room.

The location. It was too difficult to get there from the main road

We had an awesome stay at Nubian Lotus. It is a very beautiful and boutique guesthouse on elephantine island. We stayed 3 nights and had a great time. The guesthouse is directly at the Nile with a beautiful view of botanical island. It is very peaceful and rural there. After a couple of days in Cairo it was like heaven. Clean air and silence, except for animal noises which took us at the first night a little getting used to, but on the second day it was a welcome noise. Much better than noisy cars. But for those with a light sleep earplugs might be a good choice. We were also very grateful for the breakfast to go. When we had our trip to Abu Simbel, which started at 6 am, Marta prepared a very delicious breakfast to go. Just need to inform early enough. We enjoyed our stay a lot!!

Nothing

Location of the house was fantastic, overlooking the Nile river with the feluccas passing by, away from all the hustle and bustle of the city. We spent so much time on the terrace just watching the beautiful view. The apartment we stayed in was spacious and spotless. Shower was hot and strong. WiFi was fast and stable. Marta and Osama were very welcoming and accommodating. They arranged our transfers at arrival and departure, and we enjoyed so much this short private boat ride to the tranquil Elephantine Island. They also helped to arrange our day trip to Abu Simbel, and even prepared a delicious packed lunch for us. Laundry and meals could also be arranged upon request.

can’t think of any

Lovely setting with wonderful views of the Nile. Lovely, helpful staff. Great Egyptian breakfast on the rooftop. The room was big, clean and comfortable. Easy 5 min walk from where the ferry boat gets in. Highly recommend.

Beautiful place! Elephantine Island is a must when you stay in Assuan. The nubian Village at the west bank south of Assuan ist a tourist trap, here on this island it feels closer to the real thing.

The hotel was very homely The hosts very friendly and helpful and gentle people The Island the hotel was on was nice and quiet away form the Hustle and bustle of Aswan City but still only a very short ferry ride if you required to get to the city Any trips that would like to do can still be easily accessed

This is a spotless hotel in a gorgeous setting facing the Botanical gardens across the Nile. The owners are incredibly kind and helpful, and Marta is a brilliant cook. Our children also loved the kittens! One of the best places we've ever stayed in!

Beautiful tranquil location on elefantine Island overlooking West Bank of Nile . Relaxed place Friendly helpful owners. Room and hathroom spacious, spotless and nicely decorated.Tea, coffee and water provided in room and big fridge . Lovely shaded roof terrace where you have breakfast and can watch sunset with a beer.Marta cooks dinner on request which was very good. Lots of cats and friendly dog!

A little off the beaten track altho whole island is like that so part of the charm. Signs to guest house get you there eventually. 8 mins walk from ferry. Slightly expensive for extras like trips and dinner compared to other places and room wasn't serviced during our stay altho I'm sure it would have been had we asked.
