Reviewed Aug 25, 2026Piccolo hotel d’altri tempi, ospitato in un edificio dei primi del ’900, con tantissimo charme e un carattere davvero particolare. È un luogo che conserva un’atmosfera autentica e un fascino un po’ retrò, lontano dai grandi hotel standardizzati.
Le camere non dispongono di bagno privato in camera, un aspetto da considerare prima della prenotazione, ma nel complesso l’esperienza è resa speciale dall’ambiente, dalla storia e dall’atmosfera davvero unica. Un piccolo gioiello per chi ama le strutture con personalità e carattere.

Reviewed Aug 19, 2026L'hotel più bello di tutto il nostro viaggio di due settimane in Egitto.... un edificio in pietra e legno che conserva memoria della storia della città e della famiglia che lo gestisce. Lo staff è super tranquillo, gentile e ci ha dato una mano per organizzare il nostro trasferimento lungo la costa del Mar Rosso e per individuare il miglior punto della spiaggia per fare snorkeling (abbiamo viaggiato in modo completamente indipendente senza tour operator e guide e questi consigli sono stati molto utili). L'hotel si trova in una posizione meravigliosa ed è perfetto per chi voglia godersi il Mar Rosso stando lontani dal turismo di massa e dagli enormi resort che si trovano ovunque lungo il litorale. Lo consigliamo sinceramente a tutti i viaggiatori indipendenti e alle famiglie in cerca di tranquillità.

Breakfast was superb, with omelets, breads, veggies, beans. An excellent fish restaurant is right down the street. The only thing between the hotel and the beach is a road. The town is thoroughly untouristic, and gives a real taste of Egypt. Mustafa and his staff are superb folk, helpful, informative. Mustafe speaks excellent English. We would return!!

Reviewed Jan 19, 2026We had a great stay at the Hotel el quseir:-). It's an old historical building: absolutely amazing! In a great location if you want to immerse yourself in “authentic Egypt”. In the middle of the old town with a view of the sea. The staff of the family business are very helpful and had helped us organize various transports. They also gave us great tips for restaurants and snorkeling spots. The breakfast was prepared with love and was very tasty (no buffet). We would definitely book this hotel again!!!!!
We stayed at this hotel for two nights as part of a longer trip to Egypt. If you are looking for luxury, this is not the place for you. The hotel has simple facilities (shared bathroom on the floor, not in the room). In the evening it can get a bit noisy outside (street and people outside on the beach), but we didn't mind as we are not at all sensitive to noise.
You can't go swimming and snorkeling directly on the local beaches, you have to go a bit outside (the hotel staff can help with the organization!). But if you really want to immerse yourself in everyday Egyptian life, this is the place for you!!!

Reviewed Jan 4, 2026Very easygoing town, calm and tranquil historic guesthouse overlooking the beach and in the centre of the old town.
Those who choose the al-Quseir Hotel do so because they are looking for something more than just a place to sleep. The hotel is housed in a late Ottoman building that was renovated about twenty years ago. The renovation preserved the original spaces, materials, and aesthetic of the building, which stands directly in front of the seafront promenade. Unlike the soulless, ugly resorts in the area, this hotel has real character to spare. Furthermore, the staff are friendly, and the breakfast is excellent.
That said, there are some issues. The street is noisy, and the windows are not sufficient to ensure quiet rooms. There is one shared bathroom per floor, which is perfectly acceptable if one embraces the fact of staying in a place that has preserved the original layout of the house; however, the bathroom could be better maintained and more fully functional.
Al-Quseir is well worth a visit for many reasons. Unfortunately, the town is still in need of significant restoration efforts and better-developed tourist routes, but between the castle, the remains of the Italian phosphate factory, a few historic houses, and the seafront, it is a place that is worth a thousand bland and monotonous resorts.
Posizione comoda. Hotel semplice per una nOtte di passaggio. Camere carine vista mare.

They've put amazing details of interior that shows a lot of love and care towards the place and the visitors. They have names for each room and they've perserved the orginial building and its style and the wooden stairs and doors. I felt like I've changed the time and the location and the country. A real travel in time and place. The amount of details can keep you excited for more than a couple of days and it makes you excited to wake up in the morning. To be honest I've never seen something like this before in Egypt. Even the breakfast, they serve a different Egyptian breakfast every day which is super nice and considerate of them. They help you with any questions you have and make sure that you get where you want and come back safe :) They make Quseer accessible, knowing that its not a touristic city by default on the contrary.. receiving this hospitality makes me want to go back again for a longer period. Specially that Quseer has amazing streets and water activities and you can even cycle for long distances :) which makes it a real hidden Gem.

Close to both the north and south ends of town, there are clean camps where you can enjoy scuba diving or snorkeling.
I hope that in the near future, local authorities and private businesses in the town will support more initiatives to maintain clean beaches and seas.
