Very good house close to the temples
Pros:

The best guest house in town large room for three person good beds and clean, very helpful staff

Cons:

I believe the room rate is very high for this house. We payed well in advance 120 euro for one night 3 person. Stay end April the price today end April is now 40% cheaper. I think that’s bc people stay away bc of Mr Trumps actions.

Cons:

This is fraud—this is not a 5-star hotel at all. It is an excellent 2- or maybe a 3-star hotel.

Leuk traditioneel huis in Nubische stijl met veel potentieel
Pros:

Traditioneel Nubisch huis - heerlijke maaltijden - supervriendelijk personeel - ritjes met de tuktuk

Cons:

Uitzicht op de grote weg - huis ligt aan het meer maar dit zicht was geblokkeerd - we misten een plaats om rustig te zitten (kan alleen maar in het restaurant en daar kwamen tot laat in de namiddag tourbussen toe)

Gepflegtes kleines Hotel - erspart den Besuch im Nubischen Dorf in Assuan
Pros:

Sehr gutes und abwechslungsreiches Essen
Tempelanlage in 35 min zu Fuß gut zu erreichen (Mann kann auch ein Tuc-Tuc für kleines Geld nehmen

Cons:

Der Ort hat außer der Tempelanlage nichts zu bieten Früher angelegte Parks völlig heruntergekommen schade!

Hübsches Gästehaus im nubisch bunten Stil, ideal zum Besuch des Tempels von Abu Simbel
Pros:

Die Lage ist am Ortsausgang Richtung Flughafen. Sehr ruhig. Man kann zu Fuss durch den kleinen Ort bis zum Tempel laufen, das dauert ca 20 Minuten. Das Gästehaus ist sehr hübsch und bunt und hat schöne Sitzgelegenheiten im Restaurant, vor dem Haus sowie im Innenhof. Das Restaurant ist wirklich gut. Es ist so nett dort, dass man ganz entspannt 2 Nächte bleiben kann, um wirklich in Ruhe den Tempel zu besichtigen. Die meisten Gäste kommen wohl nur morgens hin und sind dann wieder weg. So hat man ab Mittag den ganzen Tempel ohne den grossen Trubel.

Cons:

Wenn man individuell unterwegs ist, hat man das Gefühl, sich ständig rechtfertigen zu müssen, dass man KEINE Transporte, Lichtshows etc. wünscht (es sei denn, man fragt explizit danach). Das ist allerdings überall so in Ägypten.
