Hotel Dengan Gim di Aswan Governorate, Mesir

酒店係度假村，整體環境非常靚非常清新，會想留喺酒店度唔出去。日出景觀非常好。我地入住既時候客人唔多，差唔多霸曬成棟別墅既感覺，1樓客廳同3樓廳都好寬闊舒服。 員工服務態度良好有禮貌。早出門口既時候會有外賣早餐，只要WhatsApp同櫃檯提前講聲就準備好比我地。 房間wifi快，廁所、房都非常乾淨，體驗非常好。係沖馬桶粒制有少少難禁，同埋佢準備比個風筒既轉插唔用得。房間冇電話，要同酒店聯絡要靠電話/whatsapp，但whatsapp回覆偏慢，可能10-20分鐘先有回覆。另一日冇同我地講要renew房卡（或者我地聽唔清楚），所以另一日同一張房卡開唔到別墅大門，要拎翻去reception renew。 由別墅門口去reception唔近，要call golf car出reception都需要d時間，如果係離reception遠少少既building就相對麻煩。外面有電動單車但係話undermaintenance所以唔可以用（但係冇上鎖，如果只係要踩可能都可以）。餐廳都離酒店有少少距離，要出去一樣要去reception叫車出去河邊，少少唔方便。但係佢地話1個月後會有新餐廳近d個酒店。 不過餐廳一樣好靚好大好舒服。另外就係本來話有free sailing boat service但一樣都係話under maintenance所以冇得坐。如果要坐帆船睇日落就要另外安排車出市區（收費偏貴所以我地都係自己出去搵）。 結論：整體環境/服務滿分，但唔太方便。

I arrived from Luxor after staying at the Luxor Pyramisa Hotel and I have to say this place is sooooo much better!! Not just the location or the size of this place but the most important thing was that all members of staff are really friendly, welcoming and always smiling, greeting you when you walk past. A few members stood out very well to me, who are Carlos & Christine from guest relations, who are really friendly and made sure that I had everything I needed and my stay was pleasant. They also sent a complimentary drink to the pool when they saw i was taking a swim. I think these guys definitely deserve a reward!! Mostafa and Ahmed from the taxi/souvenir shop booked a few taxis with them and also an excursion to the Nubial village. Good prices and the taxi were always on time and waiting for me. Finally, I can't forget Faisal, the lifeguard/swimming pool guy. Very friendly, and as soon as he knew I couldn't swim that well, I decided to give me a couple of hours of lessons! a shame. I only went to the pool once on my last day at the hotel. But in general all staff are great but these guys are the ones who I spoke with on a daily basis while staying at the hotel. The hotel, in general, is kept in immaculate condition. The gardens are nice and green and perfect for an evening walk. It's on an island, so no one to haggle you outside and the crossing is free, runs 24hrs, every 20/30mins. Rooms are a bit old but you have to remember we are not in New York or London and in fact very south of the country where its remote and for the price its a good deal!! Views are good, and sunset and sunrise while crossing on the boat to mainland is a view for sure!! I had half board so that was breakfast and dinner on a buffet service. Good selection of hot and cold food at both times. Can't say anything bad. Drinks are extra and the fresh juices are great! Will definitely be staying here again for a longer time when I visit next time!!

The choice of accommodation in Aswan was varied, but I wanted to find something special. And it was during my research that the Nubian Palace, in Nubian Village, came up. How wonderful it was to arrive at the hotel, do the check-in while drinking a welcome hibiscus juice, and then find a wonderful room Nubian style. The bedroom, with 2 super comfortable single beds, also had a desk, chair and closet. Outside the bedroom, but within the area corresponding to the bedroom, in a small patio also with a table and chairs, was the private bathroom with shower. On the first morning, because I had a trip to Abu Simbel that started at dawn, the hotel prepared some breakfast boxes that were very useful. Furthermore, all the meals (open air) I had there were very good and in large quantity. Last but not least… The entire hotel staff was extremely friendly and efficient. They contributed to making this experience at the Nubian Palace a very successful one, which means that I definitely want to return there again in the future.

It’s a 2 sided coin with this hotel, some positives and some negatives in all areas. Location is very close to the Nile river and train station which is convenient but the balcony of our hotel room looked out on some garbage tipping sights that were always crazy busy with construction, wild dogs barking, and Islamic prayers blaring from speakers until the early hours. The service at reception was okay depending on who was there at the time and they did organise the trip to Abu Simbel on a day’s notice. The wifi never worked but the room was clean and comfortable enough. Overall, not bad price for the room - reconsider using if you have trouble sleeping with loud noises or need wifi.

1, location: very good. Not far away from train station (1km) and 400m from KFC (ferry point). 2, Room a bit old 3, no WiFi 4, Breakfast is good. 5, The reception has nearly no clue about the Abu Simbel tour. They will probably offer you private tour but you do have other choice. Try going to Hotel Philae (400m from Hotel Obelisk) and ask the tour there.

The hotel staff is very accommodating to all of your stay needs. Every has a smile and makes you feel welcomed everyday. The hotel grounds is clean, well kept and many walking paths with beautiful foliage. The food is excellent and the rooms have spectacular views of the Nile River and the city of Aswan.

This hotel was definitely a step up from Pyramisa Isis Island, which was the worst place I have ever stayed in my life. The room was comfortable enough, the price was good, and there is a decent pool and a fabulous view of the Aswan Corniche. It was walking distance to the Nubian Museum and to the local McDonalds. As a tourist, you will get harassed constantly by the vendors as you walk, and it is very annoying. The food was not very good, but we found enough to eat. The shower was very weird and would go from unbelievably hot to cold. The worst part was that we were cheated by one of the male receptionists for a purchase at the Italian coffee shop in the lobby. He charged us 6 USD when the cost should have been under a dollar. Not a big deal for us to be charged 6 dollars for decent coffee, but it was the fact that he deliberately cheated us that really bothered me. I didn't throw a fit and let it go, and we just went to breakfast at McDonalds after that experience. The hotel lost money for that reason, as we certainly would have purchased many cups and coffee and pastries from them. Their loss. We also felt that one of their staff members was trying to scam us by asking (insisting) for change for a $20 US bill. The way he acted with us was very suspicious.

Magical property in magical land. Extremely professional and accommodating staff and service. The ground floor spa equally impressive where I enjoyed full body massage on consecutive days. One small issue with thermostat was dealt with promptly and to full satisfaction. I don’t believe you can improve upon The Old Cataract in any stay in Aswan..

Il y a tout d’abord l’emplacement, idéal. On ne peut être plus près de l’embarcadère qui permet de rejoindre la corniche d’Assouan en à peine 5mn. La guest house est aussi à deux pas d’une petite épicerie, vraiment pratique et tout près de deux très bons restos : Nile Dream et King Jamaica. La maison a été rénovée très récemment, est très propre et très bien entretenue . La chambre et SdB sont fonctionnelles et la terrasse sur le toit bien agréable Mais il y a surtout les hôtes Yousra et Ahmed, aux petits soins pour leurs résidants et qui essaient toujours de vous aider. Un couple qui fait vraiment tout pour s’en sortir, dans une situation difficile. Yousra cuisine également d’excellents petits déjeuners nubiens. Ils sont vraiment adorables et le rapport qualité /prix excellent.
