Reviews of NUBIAN MONALIZA guest house

It was a small place in the island well located and the landlord was helpful and nice, however the listed private bathroom wasn't that private because it's outside the room and anyone can access to it.

Good location and very clear

Nothing

Comfy, clean and close to the river crossing. The best thing about the place is Ms. Mona's welcome, attention to details, keen interest to help and her delicious breakfasts. Even on an early morning checkout, her sandwiches are delicious (not much i.e. dont expect too many ingredients but they are very tasty). She booked all the tours for me giving me the option to relax and not worry about my tours while she booked them at a reasonable price. Abou Simbel tour was amazing and i enjoyed her booking me Philae Temple and Obelisk (dont miss Nubian village visit) plus the taxi to Luxor passing via Kom-Ombo, Edfu and Esna (2 were amazing but the prize goes to Esna, the smallest of the 2 places but the most beautiful.... and yes very difficult route to reach by car).

That i had to leave....

Near to the jetty.

Hard to pull luggage on the sand.

The room and toilet were clean and renovated. The location was close to the boat you need to take to enter the Island.

You have to pay to Enter the Island with boat.

Very nice of the boss. And the good view here . The people very nice and chill.

this property is clean. The location is great, just next to public ferry place and good restaurant.

Location, very friendly and comfortable room

the location is awesome at the heart of Aswan, very close to the fairy and many restaurants in the area. the reservation was for my brother, and I was staying at the next-door guesthouse because it was the traveling high season and we didn't find 2 rooms available at the same hotel. so, he was spending most of the time with me. but he Relly liked this hotel as well.

Mona is hardly trying her best to make me comfort and relax the room is clean and bed is comfort

The place was very clean and quiet, and the owner help me to reach abu simbel in the last minute of my trip.

🇮🇳The rooms were spacious and spotless, with great décor and crisp bed sheets. The breakfast buffet was delicious, with a huge variety of options! The staff were attentive and went out of their way to ensure that we were comfortable. Nothing was too much trouble.

Very kind people and helpful! Good delicious food if you ask Nice place with a great family :)

The guest house is located in a very convenient spot on Elephantine Island, two minutes walk from the public ferry dock. The room and bathroom were clean and the room has air conditioning. Mona, the owner, is incredibly friendly and kind. She prepared small breakfast to take on our trip to Abu Simbel and a lavish breakfast on the second morning, plus refreshing karkadè and Nubian drink in the afternoon.

If you look for luxury, look away. Mona welcomes you in her home, with all the comforts and the rural life style. Chickens, cats and dogs inhabit the streets of the village and can be a bit noisy sometimes.

I wanted a sanctuary, where I could rest and relax in between busy trips to Aswan and Abu Simbel, and the Nubian Life Guest House on Elephantine Island gave exactly what I needed. I loved being a two minute ferry ride from Aswan centre, and the island was so peaceful and hassle-free - just lovely ! The guesthouse is sparkling clean, quiet, and my room had a fan and aircon which was so welcome. Bed was comfy, and I had everything I needed. An en suite private bathroom with shower was perfect for my needs and a personal outside door meant I could come and go as I chose. There were several great places near by to eat (super vegetable tagine at Bob Marley restaurant nearby). I was welcomed so delightfully by the owner, Mona, who was such a charming, dignified and kind lady. I needed a very early ferry twice, and she arranged this for me, even getting up so early to make sure I know the way to the quay. And she also made me a delicious Nubian drink on my last night, which I felt was a sign of genuine Nubian hospitality. Mona was just a perfect host. I will return to Aswan, and will stay at the Nubian Guest house again. I recommend this place 100% as simple, clean, safe, genuine and authentic, and thank you, Mona, for making my stay so restful, calm and pleasurable. Good wishes, Catherine

I liked it all!

The price is very convenient and the owner is very helpful.

the location is quite difficult to find and the room is missing basically everything (no bin, soap, side lamp,etc). It can be quite noisy

it’s humble but guess this all about the Aswan experience,, the highly recommend it the value for money is excellent

absolutely nothing
