"If you are looking for a clean quiet stay in Aswan that gives you an incredible view of Lake Nasser where you view the harbor with numerous boats and a picturesque view of Philae Temple in the background then this place is for you. We are two meals white staying and both were excellent. Please talk to the owner about a boat rental at local prices and what to see and not set around Aswan."

"Very nice local style hotel right on the Nile. Our balcony was over the water! In the middle of Nubian village, good if you like shopping (no need to book tour of Nubian village, you are there). Staff were amazing, friendly and helpful. Food delicious and simple, and other restaurants near by. Highly recommended if you want peace and quiet on the Nile."

"What a charming and peaceful getaway with amazingly hospitable staff who communicated very well! Food and views were excellent., The location itself was quiet yet right off of the main strip with the shops.
Our balcony wasn't super clean, and the stairs leading up to our top level room were a bit smelly and uneven, so not handicap friendly (but lower level rooms would have been fine I believe).
They even offered reasonably priced airport transfer."

"The breakfasts was good but repetitive. Staff was always helpful and kind. Check in took a bit longer than I would've liked. The room I initially received looked nothing like the room I booked. My room was eventually changed due to other circumstances and I ended up in a room that looked like the pictures. The location is good but you will hear street noises from your room. Many shops and restaurants in the area within walking distance."

Eco Nubia is a magical place. The staff is super friendly and always making sure you have everything you need. Muhammed is the sweetest Nubian I’ve met. He made sure I had transportation from and to the airport (even if it was at 2am). The hotel also arranged the tours to Luxor and Abu Simbel.
The food is amazing, and when my tour was earlier in the morning, they were sure to prepare a to go breakfast.
The rooms were always clean, with an amazing friendly staff. No AC but it did not bother me...

This is an amazing location - the hotel is built on a series of levels high on a rock outcrop that overlooks the ancient Egyptian Philae Temple with stunning 360° views. The rooms are each individually designed, all have pools or spas, and the staff are wonderful. You can only reach the hotel by boat so it’s not the place for busy executives (although WiFi is very good.) there’s the BenBen meditation rock and lots to think about.

The owner is very friendly and speaks perfect English. He arranged for a taxi to pick us up at the airport and bring us to the hotel. The area in front of the hotel is beside the river. There was some construction happening on the the building that was a little inconvenient at the entrance, but the room was great! Cold air conditioning, comfortable beds ample sized room with beautiful view of the Nile and boats out the window.

This is a lovely and unique property. The hotel itself is a piece of art. The staff is kind and welcoming. The view from there is absolutely amazing! But it’s a hard to find place. There are no signs or paved roads to get to the hotel and as this is a new property most of the people on the village don’t know where it is. But once you get there, it’s worth the challenge to find it!

Very nice new hotel in Aswan. The views of the Nile are incredible and the rooftop restaurant is a great place to enjoy a coffee or dinner while watching the feluccas sail up and down the river. The property is brand new so some kinks are still being worked out, but I predict this place will be a fantastic stay in Aswan. The staff are incredibly friendly (they prepared us breakfast bags on the day we left) and were happy to help. Hotel can also arrange tours and taxis.

Amazing host and beautiful apartment. Location is great (right on Nile). Excellent option for family and host is supper cooperative and can help with logistic if needed. All in all fantastic experience.

What a fantastic stay. Muhammad at the front desk was wonderful checking us in. I love having the individual cottages with our own bathroom complete with shampoo, body wash, bar soap, shower cap and amazing water pressure and very hot water.
