Obelisk Nile Hotel Aswan

Obelisk Nile Hotel Aswan

10/10 Excellent
"Our stay at the Obelisk Nile Hotel in Aswan was absolutely wonderful from beginning to end. We came to Aswan as part of our Egypt trip, and this hotel ended up being one of the highlights of our time there. The location, food, atmosphere, and especially the staff made our experience truly memorable. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed. The staff was incredibly friendly, professional, and attentive throughout our entire stay. Everyone we interacted with was willing to help, answer questions, and make sure we were comfortable. It was the kind of hospitality that made us feel like guests rather than just customers. The hotel is located right along the Nile, which gives the property a beautiful atmosphere and makes it a great place to relax after spending the day exploring Aswan. One person who really stood out to us was Hadra. Hadra was absolutely amazing and deserves special recognition. He was extremely kind, welcoming, helpful, and attentive throughout our stay. He went out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed and always made us feel comfortable and welcomed. If you’re visiting Aswan and want a hotel with a beautiful Nile-side location, great food, friendly staff, and a welcoming atmosphere, Obelisk Nile Hotel is definitely worth considering."

"J’ai passé un séjour absolument merveilleux dans cet hôtel ! La vue sur les pyramides est incroyable et l’emplacement est vraiment idéal. Le rooftop est magnifique, avec une très belle vue, surtout au coucher du soleil. Tout le personnel est très gentil, accueillant et toujours prêt à aider. La réception est très agréable et professionnelle. Les chambres sont magnifiques, très propres, confortables et bien entretenues. J’ai également beaucoup apprécié les excursions proposées par l’hôtel. J’ai fait plusieurs excursions avec eux et tout était très bien organisé, avec une équipe sympathique et professionnelle. Je recommande vraiment cet hôtel à tous ceux qui souhaitent passer un agréable séjour avec une superbe vue sur les pyramides. J’ai beaucoup aimé mon expérience et j’y retournerais avec plaisir !"
