Hotels near Nubian Museum

"**Beware of Theft** During our stay at Obelisk Nile Hotel, Aswan (11–13 March 2026), the door lock to our room suddenly stopped working on the late afternoon/evening of 12 March, the night before checkout, despite functioning normally just two hours earlier. The hotel provided a master key, but the issue was never properly resolved. After checkout on 13 March, we discovered that a pair of prescription sunglasses was missing from our suitcase. We immediately contacted the hotel and requested an incident report for insurance purposes. The hotel reviewed CCTV footage and claimed I was seen wearing sunglasses when leaving the premises. However, I clearly explained that the glasses in the footage were my everyday transition lenses, which darken under UV light, and are not the missing sunglasses. Despite this clarification, the hotel refused to acknowledge the issue and eventually stopped responding altogether. We also formally requested that CCTV footage covering our room and the corridor during our stay be preserved and provided for police and insurance purposes, but received no response. We are concerned that the lock malfunction may be related to this incident. This experience was extremely disappointing. I would not feel comfortable staying at a hotel that fails to properly address serious incidents and protect guests’ belongings."

"Clean room and helpful staff"

"I know my review will not apear egipt is full of rubbish just don't go there. dusty dirty rubbish "

"Felt very private and the property has fantastic views of Aswan from up top. That said, it also means it's a bit less convenient to get into town especially by foot. The property is also connected to the main Basma hotel slightly down hill which is bigger and busier, so that's both a private and a potential issue for some. But because the Exec Club is more private, service was more attentive and privacy away from heavy traffic was better."

"Nice hotel although a lot more expensive than the 5 star hotels in both cairo and luxor"

"This one night stay was extension to our stay due to error in check out date . Packed breakfast was given as we need to start travel back home at 06:30."

"Very helpful staff. Good location and easy acrss to activities"

"Most staff are nice, but the boss was not as kind and humble, big contrast to others. "

"There was piss and feces all over the toilet and on the floor. There was no staff available. The room phone was not picked up by anyone as there was no one at reception. There was no hot water. The TV didn’t work and numerous attempts going in and out the room to fix it. Children shouting and screaming in the corridors. I didn’t feel welcome after making my complaints known I didn’t feel safe. Despite conveying all this to finally finding someone that worked there they still charged me for three nights even though I didn’t stay more than an hour of dissapppintment trying to resolve the issues. Hotels.com were complicit in not helping and have done nothing to get me a full refund. I would highly recommend AGAINST booking at this dump and not using hotels.com in booking hotels due to their lack of concern once they have your hard earned money. Lost a household of four clients "
