The Green Nubian House

Everything

Clean and well cared place close to the ferryboat. Spacious. Nice big balcony with furniture. Big beds. Kitchen good enough to prepare a meal.

Water pressure in bathroom quite low. No name on the building and no doorbell so needed to call the owner at arrival.

Location , outlook to river and the space inside appartment. And the lovely welcome!

Liked everything!

C'est un appartement, donc pas de petit-déjeuner inclus. L'emplacement est parfait, sur l'île d'Elephantine.

优点： 1. 性价比很高：比起对岸的酒店便宜很多！独享一整层楼，有客厅、独立卫生间、阳台眺望尼罗河风景、独立厨房（没有用到），而且是两间房，每间房里面有两张床，很适合打呼噜的朋友/情侣入住，保障睡眠质量！ 2. 位置优越：距离象岛码头非常近！是南侧靠近家乐福、老瀑布的那个码头。轮渡价格合理，船夫态度友善，只是几分钟的船程就到了，这栋房子可以说是码头前排，不用走到象岛后面去，本人怕流浪狗所以尽量减少步行距离很加分！ 3. 象岛本身是挺安静的，楼下也就是一点点小孩玩耍的声音，完全能接受。如果是睡眠不好的人早上5点多会被穆斯林唱歌的声音吵醒，不过睡眠好的人就完全感觉不到。

缺点： 1.沟通：入住当天抵达埃及后联系房东，说我们预定的是另外一间民宿，不是这间。另外那间的位置就在象岛后面，下了码头后步行距离较长，也不是独享一层楼的两间房间。在我提出要向客服投诉后，房东才改口说，他同时管理几间民宿所以搞错了。对于这个解释，我们是不接受的，但是好在最后也是按照预定的这间入住。另外，帮忙入住的房东的弟弟只会帮忙提一件行李，剩下的要自己提过土路、爬坡以及拎上/下楼。 2.干净程度：可能是由于埃及尘土大的原因，房间里的各种桌子表面、洗手台、床单、梳妆台表面都有灰尘，可以看得出有部分床单是洗过的，但是还是不太干净，应该是传统晾晒过程中避免不了。有洁癖的人建议自带湿巾来擦拭，自带一次性床单、被套和浴巾。或者直接入住酒店，后续我们住在卢克索冬宫、赫尔格达全包酒店以及开罗市中心的酒店，卫生都比这里要好得多。 3.热水：热水器应该是用电加热蓄水式的，入住后需要先打开开关等加热。水流/水压不够，男生勉强可以洗，女生洗得久的应该没办法。

Emplacement idéal, proche de l’embarcadère

Exceptional Hosts, feel like family with courtship.

The owner's mother was very helpful. I was leaving before breakfast but they kindly packed a box lunch. Great location within sight of the ferry and moonrise over the Nile.

The fans were great but not quite enough to cool the room.

L'emplacement sur l'île est très bien, calme et reposant. L'appartement est très propre fonctionnel et confortable. Très proche des navettes fluviales. Le personnel est réactif 👍 Les restaurants à côté sont parfaits. Je reviendrai avec plaisir. Qualité prix très satisfaisant.

Very big, very clean and beautiful view

离码头很近，有很大的阳台，很舒服

卫生间的灯坏了，水比较小

Mahmoud Hegazy and his father were very homely and friendly from the beginning, he could recommend us places to visit around and where to eat. He could orientate me also where to buy tickets to cairo and what to do. House was clean and with a fantastic view. We enjoyed our stay in his house. Thanks a lot :)

The location of the accommodation is excellent. The apartment itself is basic, but okay. The bedroom had a well-functioning air conditioner, but the rest of the accommodation was extremely hot at times. (There is a sort of "cooler," but it falls far short—essentially useless.)

While I believe the individual I was cormmunicating with—whose name, if I recall correctly, is Hegazy—was acting in good faith, the communication at times proved to be somewhat awkward and strained. I would attribute this more to a lack of professionalism than to any ill intent.Accordingly, it represents a point in need of improvement.

Location - pretty much right next to the ferry (10 EGP one way), making it convenient to bring your bags up to the doorstep. Very spacious, definitely suits a family, with a dining table and a kitchen. Good kettle to boil lots of water. Great views. Owner provides clear instructions before checking in. Wifi was fast and suitable for making calls.

The room was cold. There were extra warm blankets for sleeping but the rest of the house was cold. In Egypt especially down South it seems like not much extra heating is provided, not even a small fan heater. Could use a hairdryer, shampoo, and extra toilet paper (ran out the day before I checked out). The guest house could also use a signboard up the front, though it is well placed on Google maps.

We enjoyed our stay. And the place was great

location wonderfull, only not for handicapt people, host was waiting for us at the ferry and walked us to the house. no cars, just gravel ans sandy path.

kitchen and bathroom could do with upgrade. we eat out all times, but tried oven to warm a snack, it did not work. we however did not miss it, the apartment itself makes up for everything

Nice apartment near the ferry station.

There is no sign on the house. The location is correct on Google Maps, but not on Open Street Maps. The owner promised me several times that he will shop up for information, but in the end did not come without telling me.

The location of the apartment is right on the Nile river with a great view and everything was homey and rustic. Its really great value for money. Hegazy the host and his father was really attentive to all our needs and never bothered us during our stay.

Its quite a struggle to move with large luggages due to the dirt road condition of the place with several upward slopes to the apartment, but other than that, everything was great.

Fantastic terrace overlooking the Nile! Location is excellent, away from the bustle of the east bank but right near the ferry terminal so easy to get over to Aswan when needed. Host family were also able to accommodate an early check in.

Nothing!

Muhammed and his father were excellent hosts, very relaxed and friendly. The apartment was very big with beds for 6-8, with a large balcony. The Nubian island was exceptional: no cars, no motorbikes, no roads, no noise. The apartment, like the island, is not high-tech with the latest gadgets and fittings (there was no TV: good), but that is exactly what a restful break should be. Restaurants very good and everything very comfortable and very reasonable. "Civilisation" is a two minute ferry, in the shape of Aswan. In short: very peaceful people and a very peaceful place. Do yourself a favour, take a peaceful break and leave the 21st century where it should be: somewhere else.

Some people may not like the dirt paths between run down dwellings with plenty of light rubbish, the air of poor village. It's not the rich West, accept it for what it is and you will enjoy the peace and the Nubian people.

We had a great stay at the green Nubian house, the appartment was confortable, and very clean with a nice view. The host was very helpful and easy to communicate with.

The flat description refers to it as a studio flat, but it's actually a 2 bedroom flat, which is much better. The host was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was very tasty and very generous.

The facility is located in Elephantine Island (100m from ferry port) which is perfect as it's away from Aswan traffic. The room was super huge with 2 bedrooms, kitchen, large living room and balcony overlooking Aswan. Perfect for sunrise/sunset views. You can walk round the island, looking at the Nubean life but have Google maps with you to avoid getting lost. You do have to take a local ferry which charges EGP10/pax which takes 3min to cross over.

All great

Truly exceptional! Spacious flat with all amenities, cleanliness, really nice owner who helps with everything. And a large balcony on the Nile. Highly recommended!!!

All very good!

The location was great; the host was great and responsive. It also had a great rooftop patio/terrace which had a fabulous view of the Nile.

Staff

No TV

Large area with great views of river and city. Friendly host to greet us and make sure we got the right ferry across.

Perfect stay on elephantine Island in Aswan. Immediately at the dock to the mainland. The owner was very nice and very helpful! Every time of the day was available for us via WhatsApp about how to get everywhere and tips to do. The apartment was very clean! Shop located immediately next door for most necessities.

It was pretty hot in aswan when we stayed there. The bedrooms had good air-conditioning but the living room not so much.

This appartment is located nearby the terminal of the ferry. The 2 bedrooms are ok. But the airconditioning wasn't working. Kitchen is basically equiped. Water pressure in the bathroom was a problem. This should be fixed. Great balcony with river view. It's a good place to stay, but there are better options in the Island. The owner is a friendly helpfull guy.

nice location close to ferry and not much traffic noises from across the Nile, friendly people on the island. The owner arranged our trips by car and by boat, and taxi ride to the airport. It may not be the cheapest way but it worked well and the drivers were good and reliable.

apartment and balcony could be hot in the hot months

Very clean. Very spacious. Convenient location near ferry. Nearby area on the island is very local which i enjoyed. Nice Nile view from balcony. Helpful host.

Shower water pressure very low. Breakfast not included.

We really enjoyed our stay here - the apartment was spacious, clean, comfortable and we loved the quiet evenings at the terrace. It is well located on the Elephantine island - very close to the public ferry (southern one - "Koti side", 5 LE per person), and it is a short walk away from some nice, Nubian restaurants. Stuff was also helpful but not pushy (there is a fine line between the two in Egypt, but it was not crossed here). In general, we were very pleased that we chose this island for our stay in Aswan - even tough we were a bit worried at first that the commute to the 'mainland' will be a nuisance. But it turned out the 'mainland' Aswan was not that interesting, noisy and the nicest restaurants were on this island anyway... Issue with an early morning passing to catch Abu Simbel trip was solved by the guesthouse (they arranged a trip, and it included the crossing before dawn).

Clean and spacious apartment with comfortable beds and a huge balcony (the view on the Nile is wonderful!). The owner gave us a lot of good advice and helped us to organize a trip to Abu Simbel. Also you can order a breakfast in the neighboring building.

It is very good staying .The landlord is very helpful. The room is big and clean, has everthings you need. The landord booked tour at very reasonable price. We are very happy all things.

Mohammed was very kind and helpful. The apartment is big, clean with a terrasse with view on the Nile and close to the Ferry to cross the Nile.
