This hotel was definitely a step up from Pyramisa Isis Island, which was the worst place I have ever stayed in my life. The room was comfortable enough, the price was good, and there is a decent pool and a fabulous view of the Aswan Corniche. It was walking distance to the Nubian Museum and to the local McDonalds. As a tourist, you will get harassed constantly by the vendors as you walk, and it is very annoying. The food was not very good, but we found enough to eat. The shower was very weird and would go from unbelievably hot to cold. The worst part was that we were cheated by one of the male receptionists for a purchase at the Italian coffee shop in the lobby. He charged us 6 USD when the cost should have been under a dollar. Not a big deal for us to be charged 6 dollars for decent coffee, but it was the fact that he deliberately cheated us that really bothered me. I didn't throw a fit and let it go, and we just went to breakfast at McDonalds after that experience. The hotel lost money for that reason, as we certainly would have purchased many cups and coffee and pastries from them. Their loss. We also felt that one of their staff members was trying to scam us by asking (insisting) for change for a $20 US bill. The way he acted with us was very suspicious.

I really loved this hotel. The view from my room (5th floor) over Aswan, the cataract, Elephantine Island, Aga Khan monument, was breathtaking. As the hotel is on a hill, I cannot imagine any other hotel offering views like that. The rooms are very clean, though a bit dated, and large, with a balcony. Very generous outdoor grounds, nice swimming pool and a perfect breakfast buffet. Nice little shopping center with very good prices for souvenirs. All in all - a hotel I would like to return to.

We only stayed at the Basma Executive Club for one night on our way across Egypt in April, 2023. The hotel upgraded us to a bigger room, which was very nice especially for the price. We ordered a family studio and were upgraded to a suite! We got in pretty late but were able to catch the buffet for dinner. We sat outside by the pool. They kept the buffet open a little later just for us since we were the last ones arriving there. They were even walking us through to show us what they had. It was really great service all around. Everyone was as nice as could be. In the morning before we left they also had a fantastic breakfast as well. We had a taxi take us to Abu Simbel which is only about a 3 hour drive from the hotel. Great hotel for anyone who wants to explore Aswan and be close enough to also visit Abu Simbel!

Highly recommend 👌🏻 The place took my heart from the first moment ♥️ Everything was on point .. the location was so great to relax & chill out .. which is better than waking up everyday on a nile view .. they have beautiful nile view rooms .. the staff was very helpful, friendly & always smiling .. the housekeeping staff was perfect & so clean .. their oriental breakfast by the nile was more than amazing .. at last, Special thanks to shaimaa & hager for their beautiful spirits ♥️

The Kato Dool Hotel is too beautiful for just one night but offers too little for a longer stay. This creates a contradiction, and there is still much work to be done. **Pros:** - The hotel features unique architecture with vibrant colors, staying true to the Nubian style. - The view is probably the best you can get in Aswan. - Every room includes a cozy balcony. - There is an outdoor terrace by the pool where you can enjoy food while overlooking the Nile. - The food they serve is good. **Cons:** - The food is very monotonous. 80% of the dishes are some variety of tagine. There are only a few vegetarian options, with most dishes featuring chicken, beef, or seafood. Seafood dishes must be ordered one day in advance. The waiting time for drinks and food is also very long—expect to wait 40-60 minutes after placing your order. - Many of the wooden furniture pieces need readjustment. Doors are difficult to open, windows don’t close properly, and closets won’t open. - There is only Wi-Fi in the reception area, with no coverage in the rooms. Management has been aware of this issue for over a year and promised to fix it, but nothing has changed (according to older reviews). - The rooms are very noisy. Whenever someone uses water on any floor, the boiler runs for several minutes, and you can hear every cough from neighboring rooms. - There are no blackout curtains, and the air conditioning is slow to cool the room. In the main area, there is also a loud beeping noise coming from the roof, which the staff hasn’t been able to stop. It is constant and extremely annoying when dining, relaxing, or sleeping. - The road leading to the hotel is unpaved, consisting of sand and rocks. - The hotel offers a tuk-tuk service between the village and the hotel, but there is little to do in the village. For trips to Aswan or other places, you need to book a private driver through reception. Each way will cost you about 800EGP every time - Although the hotel is branded as a 4-star wellness hotel, the only facility it offers is a pool—there are no other wellness services. - We paid around €400 for three nights, which isn’t a lot by European standards, but it is expensive for Egypt, and the quality of service did not meet expectations. The hotel is beautiful, but that’s about it. This was something we noticed throughout Aswan: prices are higher than in Luxor, but the level of service drops significantly. Even the bathrooms lack basic amenities, like toilet brushes. - There are many staff members, but their English is very limited, making communication difficult and leading to frequent misunderstandings. The only staff member who is easy to work with is Ahmed at the reception. He tries his best to make your stay more enjoyable. - A major downside is the lack of an alcohol license. While alcohol isn’t essential for a vacation, it adds a romantic element to the evenings with the stunning view. The hotel caters exclusively to foreign tourists,

房間很乾凈，很新採光很好，冷器很足，景觀很棒，陽台上有冷水的按摩浴池。在酒店就可以拍到很多很美的照片。員工態度非常友好，為了解決你提出的問題都會儘力幫助，感受到服務意識很強👍。餐廳自助早餐質量很好，食材很新鮮，雖然總類不算多，但勝在精，果汁都是鮮榨。付費餐食出品也可以。去菲萊神廟很方便，可以自己買票去參觀。（25美金包船接送去買票和來回）。很適合夫妻情侶悠閑度假，連呼吸都是浪漫的氣息。每天都看到他們團隊一早在餐廳開會，可見重視管理和總結。當我們離開酒店去下一家酒店，他們還會問我們下一家去哪裡，做好備案，關心旅客安全。

깨끗한 시설을 갖춘 괜찮은 신축 호텔이고, 호텔도 조용합니다. 직원들은 매우 정중하고, 미소가 지으며, 매우 도움이 됩니다. 리셉션 팀에 모든 것에 감사드립니다. 정말 여러분 모두 훌륭했습니다. 호텔 차량이 있고, 가끔은 미니버스도 있어서 호텔까지 오고 갈 수 있고, 항상 이용할 수 있습니다. 이 호텔을 추천하고, 다시 방문할 것입니다. 다시 한번 감사합니다.

This beautiful hotel, decorated in a colourful and tasteful Nubian style, is a jewel right on the Nile. Attention to detail - clean, comfortable beds, gorgeous bathroom, beautiful private patios overlooking the river, and locally made art - is evident everywhere. The attentive, gracious staff go out of their way to make you feel welcome and pampered. The delicious food is designed for everyone’s taste and can be enjoyed indoors or outside next to the Nile. A lovely infinity pool and hot tub are available for your relaxation and pleasure. Everything about this hotel is more than a five star experience.

직원의 놀라운 서비스. 우리는 호텔 로비로 걸어가는 차가운 신선한 음료와 뜨거운 수건으로 환영 받았습니다. 가방을 방으로 가져 갔고 체크인하기 전에 호텔을 둘러 볼 수있었습니다. Woel Farook에 체크인하면 우리의 체류가 즐거운지 확인했습니다. 그는 우리에게 나일강의 멋진 전망을 주었습니다. 또한 수영장과 바에서 Mahmoud는 매일 우리를 돌 보았습니다. 그가 2살 10개월 된 아이를 즐겁게 했기 때문에 아이들은 그를 사랑했습니다. 수영장 서비스는 훌륭합니다. 돌아갈 때까지 기다릴 수 없습니다. 나는 확실히 Movenpick에 머무르는 것이 좋습니다.

마법의 땅에 있는 마법의 재산. 매우 전문적이고 수용적인 직원과 서비스. 연속으로 전신 마사지를 즐겼던 1층 스파도 똑같이 인상적이었습니다. 온도 조절 장치의 작은 문제 중 하나가 신속하고 완전한 만족으로 처리되었습니다. 나는 당신이 Aswan에 머무는 동안 Old Cataract를 개선할 수 있다고 믿지 않습니다..
