I have been to Aswan three times before and even to this Nubian village before and I find myself asking, HOW did we miss this hotel before? I planned to stay there with two friends, but their flight was cancelled so I ended up staying there on my own. I wish I knew about this little gem on previous trips! Forget about the fancy hotels! This is a genuine piece of Nubian HEAVEN! In typical Nubian fashion, the hotel and all communal areas are painted in beautiful, bright, happy colors. You can't help but LOVE it! The staff are out of this world and meet and greet you with a warmth that you will be hard pressed to find on a continent other than Africa! The domed ceilings in the rooms are such a part of the Nubian architectural style and there are gorgeous murals painted inside the rooms. I was blessed enough to see a Nubian wedding, while sipping wine on the banks of the Nile river. And the breakfast was humungous! In the morning, I'm glad I had enough time to shop in the village. Thank you for helping me shop! I will definitely be back! Thank you so much!

The hotel is located in the Nubian village of Gharb Soheil. Situated by the Nile, the property is spread over a large area and has different type of rooms. The buildings are built in the Nubian style and brightly painted. Our room overlooked the Nile. The room was spacious, air-conditioned, and provided with basic amenities. There is an in-house restaurant. The foods were delicious though a bit on the pricier side. We specially loved the Stuffed Chicken and Creamy Chicken Soup. We loved to relax in the restaurant in the evening after a long day of exploring sights. The staffs are very friendly and helpful. They also packed us breakfasts when we went to Abu Simbel. As the hotel is located right in the middle of the Nubian village, we took walks in the vibrant markets during the sunset.

Absolutely special, beautiful hotel in Aswan. On the Nubian side, a calm and gorgeous oasis. The entire team was absolutely wonderful, warm to our family, taking great care of us. The food was delicious, the beds were incredibly comfortable, and the entire site was absolutely beautiful. Highly recommended if you want a calm, beautiful, special hotel every-so-slightly off the beaten path, but accessible quickly if you want to go into town. Amazing.

This is a lovely Nubian guest complex located a bit off the beaten road near Aswan. Traditional mud brick houses which are brightly painted are located directly on the Nile River. There are multiple different guest cottages and a central lobby/eating area and a separate restaurant. Many of the cottages have a terrace overlooking the Nike River and we caught a boat directly behind the establishment for a cruise on the Nile. Breakfast is served in the lobby restaurant area and consists of a mix of traditional and continental cuisine. Only instant coffee is served here. The newer cottages facing the Nile River are the best and have a modern feel with good ambient lighting, sliding glass doors that open onto a terrace, modern bathroom fixtures and decent water pressure. The mattresses are firm but comfortable. The cottages are naturally cool due to the building materials and physical design. A small safe was located in the room. The WiFi signal was weak and intermittent throughout my stay which is common in the more off the beaten tracks part of Egypt. The staff was friendly and the atmosphere was charming. I stayed in several hotels and lodges in Egypt and this place was my favorite. I highly recommend this establishment.

I had an amazing stay at Artika Wadi Kiki Hotel! From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with warm smiles and genuine hospitality. The staff is incredibly friendly, making the whole experience feel like home. The atmosphere is full of positive energy, and the artistic touches throughout the hotel make it a paradise for photography lovers. A special thank you to Om Moaz for her kindness, hospitality, and wonderful smile—she truly made my stay extra special. I will definitely be coming back and highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Aswan!
