In addition to being a nice place to stay (we stayed there in 2019, and 2024), we love all the artwork in the building and on the grounds--the sculptures and the mosaics and stained glass. NEVER remove them in the name of Modernism. Keep them! They give the hotel a timeless elegance. Also, thank you for relighting your neon sign on the roof, and using the original neon tubing where possible, rather than LEDs which rot in the sun over time, whereas neon is glass, and made by hand. I restore vintage neon signs here in the US, and they are a wonderful craft!

The Hotel Basma was a lovely place to stay in Aswan. The staff were incredibly helpful and kind. They helped me arrange tours to Philae Temple and Abu Simbel. They made sure everything went as smoothly as possible. The room was nice and had everything I needed. The views of the Nile from the balcony was the best.

Room with a view.
Nice, resort like hotel overlooking the Nile River. The view from the room was spectacular. Rooms are large, clean, cool and very comfortable. The staff is very polite and helpful. The Nubian museum is right across the street and the Old Cataract Hotel and the port are only a seven minute walk from the hotel. In addition, the hotel can arrange transportation to and from Aswan airport for a reasonable fee. We wish we had stayed longer, it was extremely relaxing and enjoyable.

Friendly Hotel
This is a very good-looking hotel on top of a hill with extraordinary views over the Nile and beyond. There is a tasty breakfast, and wonderful buffets for lunch and dinner. I had a difficulty and this was fixed with an upgraded room and a smile. There are 2 sign posted bars near the entrance, but both were closed. There was also a bar in the restaurant which I used one evening, but it is lacking in character, even although the staff are great. I suspect the two bars are open as low season comes to an end. As a solo traveller, this would normally be the place I would meet somebody. The location is great. It is within walking distance of the promenade (corniche) and the markets if you'd like a good long stroll. The Nubian Museum is opposite and the unfinished obelisk is also within walking distance. I certainly would consider returning should I be in Aswan again.

Ok, overall. For a short stay, shoukd be sufficient. A/C was pretty weak as well as no TV service. Elevators also pretty scary on if they would work once we entered. Restaurant was ok, decent food but buffet like everywhere else. Wish we coukd have experienced pool, looked great.

We had a great time in the Basma Hotel. Drainage of the bathtube needs to be checked by housekeeping to make sure it works properly. In our case we removed a lot of heair to drain it properly. Otherwise, excellent.

The property was very average. The rooms were fine and it had a pool. There was one restaurant that served decent food. Unfortunately several evenings they had only a poor but expensive buffet available. So there were no other options for food within walking distance.

Very nice location and the best Egypt class hotel of the trip. Fantastic breakfast buffet, rivals the resort class hotels. Rooms are very comfortable and quiet due to the height of the hotel. Has elevators, which is rare in Egyptian class hotels.

Accommodating but less in professionalism
The location and view is great. Staff can be trained to the next level of professionalism compared to the other hotels I have stayed. At the checkout, the guy was so busy so even say thank you. Just handed me a print out and start talking to someone else. When I asked for an envelop , he just gave me one. There were other incidents as well… Rooms are a little out dated. Food was good but the cutleries, plates and the buffet area doesn’t meet the high standards.

Pool side was great to rest after expeditions to archaeological sites. The Nubia Museum was conveniently across the street. Restaurant had pretty decent food.
