Kashta Nubian Guest Houst, hotel in Aswan

Kashta Nubian Guest Houst has a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and restaurant in Aswan.

Quiet, peaceful but very convenient. The property is a small guest house on Elephantine island - a short boat ride from Aswan. Omar was the perfect host - picking me up in his private boat and welcoming me with a juice. He was a very accommodating host - he made delicious breakfast every day (and even made a packed breakfast for my earliest start). He was good at organising tours and nothing was ever too much trouble. The rooms were very private and the rooftop was lovely and quiet. This was a perfect spot after the chaos of Cairo!

The place is very beautiful. Very warm and cheerful. When we entered the room, the whole family was amazed by the decor and colors. The room view was wonderful. All the staff do a great job. The location was very excellent, the boat directly from the hotel I will definitely repeat the experience for more days

Very beautiful place, well taken care of, with colorful paintings on the walls, Nubian style. The owners were very kind and welcoming. They helped us with the trip to Abu Simbel and with transfers. They welcomed us with a cup of mint tea, which they grow themselves. The breakfast they prepared was delicious and very big. Amazing quality for good price. Strongly recommend!

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. They gave me plenty of recommendations and did not overcharge for water (like many hostels and hotels do). The area felt safe as staff as well as locals from the village would assist if need be.

    This is the nicest place I have been in Egypt. Mango hostel is a very beautiful hotel, with colors everywhere and plants. It’s not in the city but in the island just in front (5 min by public boat, very easy) so it’s quiet and chill. The room was comfortable and all clean. What was the best, is the staff. They are all very kind, and make sure you feel good and safe. They also arrange you tour if you need. A little heaven.

    Great location in Elephant Island!! This is a great place to experience authentic Nubian culture and lifestyle. I highly recommend to stay here rather than in central Aswan, The ferry is very easy to get and is very cheap. You are also close to shops and restaurants plus your are supporting a local family

    Property is in a quiet area of Aswan, away from the noisy city. Crossing the street it has an exclusive area to swim into the Nile river or do some kayaking, which are rented for a cheap price. They also offer water and soft drinks and a small breakfast included. You can easily spend many days relaxing in the hostel, without even leaving to do attractions.

    Great owner who was very helpful, the room was nice, and I loved the view from the rooftop! The hostel is on the island and is very easy and cheap to reach by public ferry (takes 5mins). Walking around the island is also fun. Check out King Jamaica for some good food. :)

    This village is great if you want to experience local life. The staff here are really nice and always ready to help with a smile. It's very safe to walk around this island even at night. I felt comfortable with the Nubian people and trusted them completely. For those seeking conformity, this hostel may not align. But if you want to relax and enjoy the peacefulness while looking at the stars, this is the place to be

    David hostel can provide all options for Aswan Abu Simbel and Luxor with reasonable price. Sleeping in the hostel is recommended to backpackers. Free laundry service was great.
