The Hotel itself is very nice and feels like an oriental deam from 1001 nights. it is very beautifully architected and built, very colorful and has great facilities, incl. a fantastic pool. However, the best thing about the hotel is its location at the top of a hill with incredible views of the surrounding desert and the river Nile below. The views are absolutely stunning from everywhere at the property incl. all the rooms.

From the moment i arrived in Hotel i was made to feel very welcome. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The location of the Hotel was excellent as it is situated right next to the River and the view was amazing. The food was was good and its presentation. It is obvious to me now that the Hotel staff reflect the very hospitable nature of the the local Nubian people and this has encouraged me to return to the same Hotel again whenever i am in Egypt. Thank you Kendaka staff.

Unlike Cairo, Aswan is much slower paced and people are much nicer. The city has several historical sites, temples, and islands. The views and food are amazing. I’m skipping Cairo on my next trip to Egypt and coming straight to Aswan and Luxor.

A very beatiful place to relax and enjoy the sun during winter.
We felt very safe and happy.
The local market is great it has unique and authentic goods.
The philae Temple is great it has spots to take photos and great views.
We enjoyed the Botonical Garden very much as it has plants from all over the world.
The feluca ride is one of the best things we enjoyed but first you have to agree on the price.

Tombs of the Nobles were really neat if you can make it over to the other bank. Watch out for the camel guys there though. We got roped into $50 camel rides.
Aswan was probably our least favorite stop in Egypt. Harassment by salespeople was higher here than at the Great Pyramids, and much higher than Luxor! We couldn't walk anywhere at anytime of the day without a salesperson walking with us for several blocks. And as soon as they were done, someone else would take over. Its too bad, I think the corniche could be a really pretty walk!

Aswan is pleasant pretty city on upper Nile within easy day excursion to Abu Simbel. Don't ride camel at Giza, ride one at Aswan out into the desert. Ride felucca boat around Elephantine Island. Eat at King Jamaica restaurant. Stop to see unfinished obelisk

Everyone was so friendly and helpful.
Everyone was so friendly and helpful.
I didn’t realize that the hotel was undergoing a little construction. It looked like they were upgrading their ramp. This meant we had to carry our bags up the stairs to the lobby.
The property is beautiful and has a terrific view of the town and we could see the Nile from our room. The restaurant was very good- we had dinner there.
BTW the construction noise never bothered us. We couldn’t hear it at all.

If you are doing the Initiatic path, Elephantine Island is so perfect. We stayed at Mango Tree (feel like exotic move stars) and Nubian Dreams (also a restaurant but we scored their top floor room and that is super fun) We also stayed at Nubian Palace, oh my gosh. Take a little private ferry and go to that place. Its so memorable. Philae temple was set up from our host at Nubian Palace (which we usually never do but she is a badass and handles it so you don't have to negotiate to and from the ferry marina) Stay on the west bank. Never the east. Its so loud and full of hustle. The west bank is like real Egypt. Lovely. Easy to start the temple path to Abu Simbel by hopping on a local large bus. Fun, cheap, easy. (Its a little more coming back but its all very cheap so be nice and accept the system) From here you can take a train, bus or private taxi to Kom Ombo and Edfu as you make your way to Luxor. (ALSO STAY ON THE WEST BANK in luxor) What a lovely quiet and profoundly spiritual adventure.
Amazing service from the staff (Rena&Rena) and the managers Tahir and Esraa for sorting out a booking site issue with no problems My deepest thanks :-)
It was no problem leaving at 4M for an early drive to Abu Simbel - the 10 minute ferry runs all night and a continental breakfast from 3am with a foil takeout box upon asking.
The 360 panorama is absolutely spectacular and a great choice over the Cataract Hotel - thankyou for the room upgrade to a wonderful garden suite - it was greatly appreciated 😊
We were pleasantly surprised by this comfy hotel! It is in the perfect location. If you don’t want to stay on elephantine island to do excursions, this is the place! It is literally RIGHT across from the ferry to the island and in walking distance of great restaurants on the river. The room is comfy and the staff literally bent over backwards to help get us to Abu Simbel when our tour cancelled on us and we were leaving the next day! Literally they saved our trip lol. Definitely recommend if in Aswan!
We loved being immersed in the community, stepping out the door to local markets and restaurants was so much fun. We are a family of 4 and had the second floor to ourselves which was clean, spacious and comfortable. Mustafa was amazing, always making sure we were comfortable and organised for all our sightseeing at great prices. I don’t think our stay in Aswan would have been the same staying anywhere else. A real gem for our Egypt experience.
The location for this hotel is ideal. It is right on the Main Street and just across the street from the Panorama Point. Mena, the owner is happy to arrange travel for you to the many sights around Aswan. We went by private car to Abu Simbel and to Philea. Both were amazing! The sunset felucca ride with Ahmed was lovely and relaxing. Don’t miss eating at the Crepe Restaurant just next door; it’s delicious and reasonably priced.
Excellent hotel with excellent location♥️
located at the village center,extremely clean & comfortable . Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed by the friendly staff,
Would definetely recommend this hotel to everybody!
thank you for every thing I’m very happy in my stay at Kato Waidi hotel ,every thing was excellent if i come back to Aswan kato Waidi will be my first choise .
The view is breathtaking! Most hotels are located in Aswan’s main avenue and you won’t get a chance to see how beautiful the city’s scenery really is. Also, the staff Kamel and Hares were 5 starts. They helped us with everything, we even got a boat trip with Hares. Don’t miss the chance to stay at this hotel!
The hotel is located in the Elephantine Island. Just a 5 min walk from the public ferry. There is a separate private ferry stand just in front of it. It is a new hotel with excellent facilities. AC was working perfectly. Beds were comfortable. Mohammed helped us a lot in booking tours for us
The hotel is one of my favorite places on earth.. luxury, historic, beautiful restaurants, (more on that in a minute) ,gorgeous rooms heavenly pool. And the VIEW! Spectacular.. this was our 2nd time at the old cataract. And it is the most beautiful and best hotel in egypt.
super nice river view from the room. And the room is clean and quiet enough. Especially compared with the city hotels, you can enjoy a quiet morning. (if you live in hotels in the Aswan city centre, you will wake up by the broadcasting from the mosque every 5am)
Wonderful guesthouse in a quiet location away from the bustle of Aswan. Elephantine gives you a glimpse of rural life in modern Egypt. Bayt Zaina was a very relaxing stay and the staff were friendly and available to help at any time. Would love to stay again!
The place was amazing, great atmosphere, very friendly staff, and we were assisted to do things in Aswan. The food was the best, very authentic. And the owner of the hotel told us many things about Nubian history and offered traditional coffee.
QUIET! It is extremely difficult to find quiet hotels in Egypt. Given the location of Basma, this is one of a few. Also, amazing staff, wonderful view of Aswan, great food (at European prices, not Egyptian ones). Very clean.
One of the best places we stayed at in Egypt within the price range. Large room, large and clean bathroom. Lovely host Habib, who arranged everything we needed. Fantastic food at the sister hotel down the road.
This is a very pleasant and clean place, it's a guesthouse not a hotel so expect the hospitality of the family. Not a luxury stay but a calm and peaceful place away from the noise and chaos of Aswan city.
I have stayed at many 5 star hotels around the world, Maldives, Caribia, Dubai etc. but Old Cataract beats them all. Wow, what a hotel. Location. Atmosphere. Staff. They got it all. Thank you ❤️.
The rooms were clean, very comfortable, and the staff was amazing. They went over and beyond to help make our stay enjoyable. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Aswan
Beautiful room, clean and great facilities. One of the best 5 star hotels. There was a wide selection for their buffet breakfast. Staff were really helpful and friendly.
