Kommer ikke dertil igen

Udsigten.

Der var ikke rent nogen steder. Toilettet kunne ikke skylle ud. Da to gange urinering havde stået i 40 C varme det meste af dagen, i toilettet, måtte jeg finde en spand og selv skylle det ud. Værten foretog sig ikke noget. Fortalte dog det var et problem på hele øen, bare ikke hans fællesbadeværelse ude på gangen. Havde en ven der boede på et andet guesthouse, nær ved, de havde heller ikke noget problem. Det første og eneste overnatnings sted, der selv har trukket penge fra mit kort gennem Booking.com. Det forstår jeg nu, hvorfor. Værten insisterede på, at jeg kom op på taget og fik en velkomstdrink, den første aften, som bestod af friskpresset mango. Den smagte skønt. Først efter, jeg havde drukket færdig kom jeg i tanke om at spørge, om det var blandet op med vand. Ja, svarede han, but don’t worry it’s clean it’s not from the River Nile. Ay, tænkte jeg, nu får jeg dårlig mave - næste dag + 4 dage i alt har jeg haft hurtig-mave. Bare ikke i orden, hvis de ikke ved at turister ikke kan tåle deres vand. Engelsk kan de færreste. Sengetøjet var ikke rent. Bad om noget nyt og det var heller ikke rent. Lugtede også af ged. Døren til “badeværelset” gabte til 25 cm over gulvet. Så, ja der “duftede” herligt da jeg kom tilbage om eftermiddagen.

Great little guesthouse - well run with helpful management

Great service with Anjep providing packed breakfasts for our early starts and also arranging transportation by private boat. It's great value - give the Movenpick a miss and save your $ for the wonderful temples and tombs

Rooms were missing some towels and its a hard place to get to independently. Island does not have paved roads (all dirt and sand) so luggage is problematic without their private transfers

És l'estada que més ens ha agradat de tot Egipte!

Ens ha encantat l'acollida de l'Amgad, les vistes de la terrassa de l'hotel, l'habitació,... tot excel·lent! L'Amgad ens ha portat en barca i ha sigut una excursió meravellosa! També ens va portar a visitar un antiquari-museu molt especial, perquè li vam demanar. I ens va gestionar l'excursió a Abu Simbel. Tot sense pressió i amb cap intenció de vendre, ni cobrar comissions. A més, ens va recomanar un resturant on només hi van els locals. Dormir a la Illa Elefantina i en concret a El Prince Guesthouse, és una manera molt autèntica de cònèixer la cultura Nubia i tot gràcies a l'ajuda de l'Amgad.

Res. Tot genial!

Super

Son emplacement sur l’ll île éléphantine / face au jardin botanique - Son propriétaire aux petits soins sa terrasse ensablée Et conviviale donne un air de plage…

Le petit bémol : le manque d’indication pour s’y rendre peut-être mais les habitants de l’île sont charmants et vous accompagnent car le proprio est connu

Excellent room and service

I took 5 mins boat ride to reach hostel. Address was explained by the host. He welcomed me with drinks. The room was super clean. The host is super friendly. I had to leave for my trip before 04 am, the host make sure that I do not leave without breakfast. He woke up at 3 am and packed my breakfast. I am super satisfied with this booking.

Heerlijk!

Wat een prachtige locatie! En wat een geweldig personeel! Amgad en Amir doen van alles om het je zo comfortabel mogelijk te maken. Amgad heeft diverse tripjes geregeld voor me en was altijd wel in voor een praatje. De eerste dag liep hij zelfs met me mee om de weg naar de supermarkt te wijzen en de rest van mijn vakantie deed hij van alles om het naar mijn zin te maken. Eigenaar Amir was oprecht geïnteresseerd in mijn mening en bleef op de achtergrond van alles op de hoogte . Ook hun oprechte bezorgdheid, toen ik een keer langer weg bleef dan normaal, zegt al genoeg. Ik voelde mij veilig en werd als een prinses behandeld🥰

Ik heb wel aangegeven dat de beschrijving van de kamer die ik boekte niet helemaal klopte (kamer zou diverse faciliteiten hebben zoals waterkoker, wasmachine etc) Dit was niet zo maar ik kon evengoed gebruik maken van deze faciliteiten buiten mijn kamer dus geen probleem.

Séjour à Assouan

La gentillesse du gérant qui était adorable et aux petits soins. Il était vraiment à l écoute et disponible à chaque fois. Vraiment, il donne son charme à la pension.

Le fait que la salle de bain et wc soient partagés. Nous aurions aimé savoir cela avant. Le gérant nous a bien proposé un remplacement mais la chambre était si petite que nous ne l avons pas accepté.

If you want to experience life in an authentic Nubian island this is the perfect choice

The location of this guest house is perfect to explore Elephantine Island and the view from the terrace is amazing. Amir, the owner, helped us in everything we needed and made our stay truly unforgettable.

Nice staff, pretty view, unclean room

The staff was very friendly and responsive to any questions or requests

The room was not clean, no top bed sheet, the towels were dirty and the poor drainage of the shower into the whole bathroom (as one small room) made the floor very slippery

A great experience of the native people of southern Egypt, surrounded by natural vibrs and a place with a great view!

It is located in the most peaceful place of Aswan, especially if you want a getaway from the business of the city, it is a great stay with the most friendly people in Egypt. I was welcomed with many positive vibes, the guesthouse owner even arranged a late night dinner of great taste and a carry-on breakfast for my early tour at 4 AM. If I would go back to Aswan, this is the sole place to stay.

Nothing, couldn’t ask for a beter hospitality!

It all worked out in the end :)

The Prince Guesthouse is in the perfect location. You reach it by boat - either the public ferry or private ferry to the island. From the terrace you can see Kitchener Island, the botanical gardens, and up and down the Nile towards the tombs of the Nobles. At night you can see Aswan in lights. The beds were very comfortable. The staff were so kind and friendly. We were feeling ill when we arrived and he made us tea and took care of us.

There was a mix up with rooms at the beginning but they made every effort to try and sort things out for us. There is extreme hardship for locals in Aswan at the moment. They need tourists to support the small private hotel owners, so if you are thinking of going to Aswan, think about helping the small businesses there as they need you!

The host was so helpful and accommodating. Loved our couple of nights here.

The location is great. Your away from the hustle and bustle, and its pretty easy to take the ferry to and from the island. Then it was a short walk from the ferry drop-off to the accommodation. It's also a really beautiful oulook over the Nile.

The rooms are pretty simple. But they have good hot water (just remeber to make sure it's turned on when you arrive) and were comfortable from a temperature point of view. The rroms definately met our expectations, but the rooftop terrace is the highlight.

Very good

This was a rustic Nubian experience that we really enjoyed. This might not be for everyone, but we enjoyed our stay with great views of the nile and met fellow travelers.This location is on Elephantine island and requires a 5 EGP public ferry crossing. The wifi was very good.

The only negative is there are no paved paths to the guesthouse, so it's hard to wheel your luggage.

It is on an elephantine island hence when you get there it's better in comparison to Cairo, it's very quint country side living.

Nothing to fault however,some soft beds would help it's just us who aren't used to hard beds.

Superb

Amazing manager - he prepared hot tea for me when I arrived late in the evening and breakfast before I left and helped me get my suitcase to the ferry station. The view from the roof is awesome. Water stays hot in the shower

Wifi only available on the roof. Walk to/from the ferry is not suitcase-friendly (but that’s something I should have checked ahead of time)

Overall, I would highly recommend El Prince Guesthouse to anyone, 5-star experience!

I recently stayed at El Prince Guesthouse in Assuan, Egypt and was thoroughly impressed with my experience. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warm hospitality and the staff went above and beyond to ensure my comfort and enjoyment throughout my stay. The guesthouse itself is beautifully designed and decorated, providing a charming and welcoming atmosphere. The rooms are spacious and well-appointed, with comfortable beds and modern amenities such as air-conditioning and Wi-Fi. The views from the rooms are breathtaking, overlooking the stunning landscapes of Assuan. What truly sets El Prince Guesthouse apart, however, is the exceptional quality of the service provided by the staff. They were always available to help with any questions or needs, and their attention to detail and genuine care for their guests made me feel truly at home. The guesthouse also offers a delicious breakfast each morning, featuring a variety of local and international options to start the day off right. The location is convenient, with easy access to all the nearby attractions and sites in Assuan. Overall, I would highly recommend El Prince Guesthouse to anyone looking for a comfortable and memorable stay in Assuan. It exceeded my expectations in every way and I will definitely be returning in the future. 5-star experience, hands down!

The host was really nice! He didn't charge us extra for any service we asked for (different from the rest of the host in egypt!).

The cleanliness is really something that needs to be look into! but you get what you paid for.

El Prince House - place with magical people that deserves to be visited

The personal attention of Amgad(the guy who is on charge of the checkin and everything you need from the hotel) is the best part of this place. He is the kindest person I have ever met and made our stay with my mother there - unforgettable!!! He will help you organizing your trips around and make sure you get the best of it. The hotel itself is also really cute and full of colorful typical nubian paintings made by Amgad himself.The area is calm and close to the nature which makes it the perfect place to escape from the crazy chaos of the big cities. If you really want to have a calm place and feel the local culture, this is your place!!
