The best accommodations Aswan

The long and famous saga of Old Cataract began a little more than a hundred years ago, in 1899. All the greats of this world have spent their time there. A must for heads of state and show-biz personalities. The jewel of the Egyptian hotel industry, restored with extreme taste in 2011, nestled in an exuberant palm garden, with its Victorian and Moorish architecture, it overlooks the river from the top of its pink granite promontory.

The cheapest hotel in this category is distinguished by the high quality of the service offered. You have to see the Sudanese staff in the traditional costume restaurant! Small swimming pool on the terrace on the seventh floor. In the city centre.

A modern and stylish establishment at the entrance to the Souk. Comfort assured. Some of the rooms are the Nile, but all are air-conditioned and have an impeccable bathroom. Welcome is warm and efficient service.

The building, at the corner of the street, is easily linked to its pseudo-huge bas-reliefs of a curious taste. Mostly Egyptian customers (unfortunately noisy). The hotel has been badly aged but is clean. Avoid the rooms near the night box on the second floor.

This hotel has a very elegant façade, typical of the buildings built in the 60 s in Aswan. The interior, though clean, makes less dreams, but just settle in the balcony of its bedroom, dominating the Nile, to move to something else!

Kept very correctly, this little fatigué hotel has only one big defect, it is in front of a mosque. Make sure your room is not too close to a loudspeaker. Except that, it's an excellent address. Some rooms have air conditioning and bathroom. Young and cosmopolitan clientele.
