Lovely warm rooms. Great food and spectacular views from the terrace. Downside is that everywhere is a steep climb or series of stairs. Not for the mobility impaired or elderly. If you’re young and active, a perfect spot. ##### Greg Stayed 1 night in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Richard Sep 20, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 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. ##### Richard Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kane Mar 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### THE place to stay if you're heading to Aswan One of our favourite hotels on our recent visit to Egypt. Merna checked us in and showed us around the resort and her warmth and accommodating nature made us feel very welcome. The rooms are well appointed and very comfortable - the views of the water are spectacular. We did have one experience in the restaurant/bar area where the manager asked why I was 'arrogant' for simply stating we needed to leave by a certain time for a spa appointment. This was extremely rude and made us feel uncomfortable on our last afternoon at the resort - apart from his attitude - everything else was amazing. ##### Kane Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julie Mar 10, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities BenBen lived up to the expectation. The hotel is absolutely fantastic, the rooms are wonderful, all have a personal jacuzzi/pool. Very comfortable bed and very clean. The staff are all wonderful, from reception to cleaning staff and all at the restaurant. They truly make your trip fantastic. The only point of improvement would be for the kitchen: waiters can get orders wrong sometimes. And need to make bread fresh daily, we had day old bread the entire trip unfortunately. Overall an amazing experience, so relaxing and peaceful. Beautiful resort in a superb setting. Will definitely try to go back in the future. Highly recommended for couples, solo, friends getaway. :) ##### Julie Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ferenc Bence Jan 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautifully situated and designed hotel. Unlike many alternatives, it is in a distance from Aswan city, creating a very peaceful environment. Also, it is close to the Philae temple complex. If arranged with the hotel, the boat ride there and back is expensive (currently 30 dollars), but is simpler and more flexible than from the main dock (e.g. for checking out the original location of the temples, birdwatching). The only negative we fould was the water temperature of the jacuzzi - probably not an issue in summer, but felt a bit chilly in January. Finally, two suggestions for management: - Play local music in the restaurant, while jazz was better, pop songs are really not a good fit for the property. - Sell the beautiful traditional pottery used in the restaurant as a side business. We tried to purchase coffee cups and a pitcher, but unfortunately it was not possible. ##### Ferenc Bence ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Carols Beau Rivage Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Marsa-Matruh-Hotels-Carols-Beau-Rivage-Hotel.h10052231.Hotel-Information) > > [JAZ Almaza Beach Resort, Almaza Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Marsa-Matruh-Hotels-Jaz-Almaza-Bay.h1506575.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Resort Sharm EL Sheikh](https://www.expedia.ca/Sharm-El-Sheikh-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Resort-Sharm-EL-Sheikh.h885065.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Luxor Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Luxor-Hotels-Hilton-Luxor-Resort-Spa.h16163.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Collingwood by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Barrie-Orillia-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Suites-Collingwood.h52463807.Hotel-Information) > > [Pickalbatros Citadel Resort Sahl Hasheesh](https://www.expedia.ca/Hurghada-Hotels-Albatros-Citadel-Sahl-Hashsih-Families-Couples-Only.h2173600.Hotel-Information) > > [Hapi 5 Nile Cruise, 3-4-7 nights from Luxor or Aswan](https://www.expedia.ca/Luxor-Hotels-Hapi-5-Nile-Cruise.h32504012.Hotel-Information) > > [Palm Royale Resort - Soma Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Hurghada-Hotels-SENTIDO-Palm-Royale.h1178537.Hotel-Information) > > [White Hills Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Sharm-El-Sheikh-Hotels-White-Hills-Resort.h85269305.Hotel-Information) > > [Prima Life Makadi Hotel - All inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Hurghada-Hotels-Prima-Life-Makadi-Hotel.h2933586.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Brampton](https://www.expedia.ca/Brampton-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-0-d6807-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Tropitel Sahl Hasheesh Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Hurghada-Hotels-Tropitel-Sahl-Hasheesh-Resort.h8035526.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Plattsburgh](https://www.expedia.ca/Plattsburgh-Hotels.d2816.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Flamenco Beach and Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/El-Quseir-Hotels-Flamenco-Beach-And-Resort.h1654465.Hotel-Information) > > [Fort Arabesque Resort, Spa & Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Hurghada-Hotels-Fort-Arabesque-Resort.h5806203.Hotel-Information) > > [MS Esmeralda Nile Cruise from Aswan or Luxor](https://www.expedia.ca/Luxor-Hotels-MS-Esmeralda-Nile-Cruise.h32442538.Hotel-Information) > > [Kempinski Hotel Soma Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Soma-Bay-Hotels-Kempinski-Hotel-Soma-Bay.h2135054.Hotel-Information) > > [Margaritaville Island Reserve Riviera Cancún - A Karisma All-Inclusive Experience for All](https://www.expedia.ca/Cancun-Hotels-Margaritaville-Island-Reserve-Riviera-C.h38812307.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to San José (SJO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/sjo/vancouver-to-san-jose) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Los Angeles (LAX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/lax/toronto-to-los-angeles) > > [flights from calgary intl airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/yyc/flights-from-calgary-intl-airport) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yvr/toronto-to-vancouver) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Punjab (ISB)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/isb/toronto-to-islamabad) > > [Flights from Goffs (YHZ) to New York (LGA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yhz/lga/halifax-to-new-york) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Nairobi (NBO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/nbo/toronto-to-nairobi) ### Cars > [Car rentals in Fort Lauderdale](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Fort-Lauderdale-Hollywood-Intl.d5000262.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Cruise > [Cruises to Hawaii](https://www.expedia.ca/Cruises-to-Hawaii.d213.Travel-Guide-Cruise) ### Packages > [Alberta Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Alberta.d11111.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Iceland](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/79/Iceland)
