Very peaceful place. Really nice rooms, comfortable beds, very clean. Delicious breakfast. Omer was very helpful whenever we needed anything. This place was paradise after the grit of Cairo. We stayed 4 nights, would definitely stay again if we return to aswan. Elephantine island is lovely.

It's in the heart of the village, near all shops and restaurants. The room had river view and the restaurant is good, cheap and by the river. Staff is very helpful and offered to contact the agency taking us to Abu Simbel to make sure they were coming to pick us up. Highly recommended. Definitely the nicest place to stay in Aswan

Great value for money! A wonderful new place in Aswan; super clean, nicely decorated, cozy and with spacious rooms and private bathrooms. It is on the main street, and the Nile view is beautiful. The host, Biba -brilliant young woman entrepreneur, is incredibly and resourcesful. She was also so kind to upgrade my room. Highly recommended for both solo travelers (they have dorms) and couples, and especially for those who want to support young women entrepreneurs.

Go Inn Backpackers is a perfect place to stay in Aswan. Gandhi is super nice and very knowledgeable, and he is there to help with his great insider tips. The hostel is located in a less touristic area, therefore, it gives a more authentic experience. The common area is really nice and the facilities are clean.

I stayed in a private room, still I found every room to be clean, well maintained and all household conveniences available. The Wifi is always working and the place was completely safe and secure. Importantly the staff are amazing, helpful, professional and go above and beyond. Moreover, the place is in a great location, not too far from the centre and other islands and there is plenty of public transport available to access. Local shops all close by and with all necessities available. Deffo will go again.

It’s a beautiful place, build by a retired mother that worked as a teacher and now wants to leave a bussiness for her two dauthers. You can see the love on the place and wanting to do stuff as good as possible. They have little semiapartments with shared half kitchens (not stove but fridge, a sink, glasses and plates), the room I stayed had a balcony with beautiful views to the nile river, had airconditioning but also a fan, so you can chose. The shower has a heater, and though it has an interesting design just in the middle of the toilet, it works and is very good. The owner incredibly nice, very nice person to talk with. Her dauther is the only one doing Bird watching tours in Aswan (even being featured on the Lonely planet).

Is a wonderful new hostel that is in the heart of Aswan and with wonderful views and a beach in the gorgeous Nile river. The stuff is amazing and they offer a wonderful clean bed with everything needed. The hosts has been living for a while in the country and she really knows about recommendations. She even organised some amazing tours for us.

All hostels in Aswan

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. They gave me plenty of recommendations and did not overcharge for water (like many hostels and hotels do). The area felt safe as staff as well as locals from the village would assist if need be.

Property is in a quiet area of Aswan, away from the noisy city. Crossing the street it has an exclusive area to swim into the Nile river or do some kayaking, which are rented for a cheap price. They also offer water and soft drinks and a small breakfast included. You can easily spend many days relaxing in the hostel, without even leaving to do attractions.

Great owner who was very helpful, the room was nice, and I loved the view from the rooftop! The hostel is on the island and is very easy and cheap to reach by public ferry (takes 5mins). Walking around the island is also fun. Check out King Jamaica for some good food. :)

David hostel can provide all options for Aswan Abu Simbel and Luxor with reasonable price. Sleeping in the hostel is recommended to backpackers. Free laundry service was great.
