像在家一样。feel like home.
Pros:

强烈推荐这家民宿!这家店已经开了很久了,服务体系很成熟。这里的食物非常卫生,有努比亚的特色。整个环境布置都是努比亚的特色,颜色鲜艳,墙壁上的画非常精美。而且有停车的地方。

美食推荐:努比亚特色的烤鱼,秋葵浓汤,还有一种像粥一样的汤!加上柠檬吃的。一定要尝试!超级好吃!

他们家的餐厅也很大,可以同时接纳很多游客。吃完晚饭在哪里吹风会非常舒服。但是因为靠近水边会有很多蚊子,店家提供驱蚊液。等到冬天去的话,老板提供游船,可以去看阿布辛贝神庙的日出和日落。

宾馆的房间很大!我们定的双人房竟然可以睡三个人!卫生间很干净,水压也很大,白天水会小一些。房间里面有空调、顶上有电扇,还有衣柜,小冰箱里有免费的可乐和水。床的顶上有蚊帐,甚至有驱蚊水,细节做得非常好。空调插座中国人是可以直接插,不用国际的转换器。

店主和员工对待客人非常热情和真诚,感觉就在家里一样。当你到达到时候他们会热情提早等待你,并且给你一个welcome drink,是当地特色的洛神花水饮料,非常解暑。当我们因为车加不到油被困在阿布辛贝村的时候,店家千方百计给我们找油,想办法,并且让我们免费多住了一晚,他真的给我们提供了很多帮助。

老板是我出生以来见过的最善良,健谈、聪明并且勤劳的人。如果你要来阿布辛贝神庙的话,请你一定先考虑这个宾馆!


I highly recommend this guesthouse! It has been operating for many years with a mature service system. The food here is clean and features authentic Nubian cuisine. The entire venue is decorated in traditional Nubian style with vivid colours and stunning wall paintings. There is on-site parking available.

Food recommendations: Traditional Nubian grilled fish, okra soup, and a porridge-style broth that tastes amazing with lemon squeezed in. You must try them — they are absolutely fantastic!

The restaurant is spacious and can accommodate a large number of guests at once. It’s extremely pleasant to sit there and enjoy the breeze after dinner. However, there are lots of mosquitoes since it’s close to the water, so the property provides mosquito repellent for guests. If you visit in winter, the owner offers boat trips to watch sunrise and sunset over Abu Simbel Temple.

The rooms are very roomy. The double room we booked easily fits three people. The bathroom is spotless with strong water pressure, though the water flow is slightly weaker during the day. Each room is fitted with air conditioning, a ceiling fan and a wardrobe. The mini-fridge is stocked with free Coke and bottled water. Mosquito nets cover every bed, and mosquito repellent is also supplied — such thoughtful little details. The air-conditioner sockets are compatible with Chinese plugs, so you won’t need a travel adapter.

Cons:

对于中国游客 菜可以少放一点盐和糖,对于中国人来说太甜太咸了。 please use less salt and sugar in the dishes for Chinese guests? The food tastes too salty and sweet for us Chinese people

El sueño de una noche
Pros:

Que no es solo un lugar para descansar, es un lugar que te hace sentir como en casa. Te traslada en el tiempo, te hace sentir que eres parte del lugar y del que no quieres irte. Para aquellos que lo visiten no olviden que su dueño Mohamed, les cuente la historia del Kabara.

Cons:

No se podría escribir nada en este apartado porque todo fue perfecto.

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.

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!
