Rooms

Spread between the original Palace Wing and the newer Nile Wing, the rooms and suites provide characterful and modern spaces offering both European and Arabian-influenced interiors. Amenities in each room include a TV and DVD player, internet access, individually-controlled air conditioning and a minibar. Many have terraces with views over the Nile, and all have a marble en suite bathroom with both a shower and a bathtub.

The Nile Wing houses four room and suite categories, which range between 36 and 67 square meters in size and also differ in the quality of their view, with the two suite categories benefiting from a butler service. The Palace Wing houses two room types and three suite types, all with high ceilings and rich furnishings that hark back to the hotel's early years. Some of the rooms have views of the property's gardens, while others look out to the Nile from a private terrace. The largest Palace Opera Suite spans 90 square meters, giving the feeling of a luxurious apartment. There are also several Legendary Suites, each named after famous guests who once slept here, featuring private Jacuzzis, chandeliers and extra-large king size beds.

Location

Situated a short walk away from Aswan's corniche, the hotel avoids the city center noise but is still close enough to all the action. There are a few floating restaurants moored up along the river, however, please be aware that the food served will be simple fare.

Food and drink

Breakfast is served on the terrace (weather permitting) overlooking the Nile, which is the perfect way to start any day. It's also possible to sit a little further along the terrace later in the day to enjoy afternoon tea and the stunning sunset. In the evening, you can choose between four different restaurants serving local, Mediterranean, French or Levantine cuisine. There are also four different bars to choose from should you wish to enjoy a refreshing drink before or after your meal.

Honeymooners

For a special occasion, the hotel can serve a traditional Egyptian dinner in the pavilion at King Farouk's look-out — a beautiful spot overlooking the Nile.

Facilities and activities

A rather luxurious spa is situated in the Nile Wing, offering a range of treatments along with the beautiful, adult-only indoor pool, hammam and Jacuzzi. Guests can also make use of the well-equipped gym and the cozy library.
