Nothing

Amazing stay! The place is very quiet with a great view. We enjoyed our time here. Very good breakfast and easy access to the mainland via ferry. Also they provide complimentary boat transportation on arrival and departure. Highly recommended

It was truly fantastic. Our best experience in Egypt by far! The Nubian hospitality we felt at Rayan Guest House was incredible. They fulfilled all our request, in a very genuine and helpful way. I would recommend to anyone to come and stay in this guest house , is very comfortable, clean and you feel at home. The guesthouse has a private and free boat to cross from and to Elephantine island. Also to mention the breakfast was so good to start a great day and the dinner is amazing, cooked by the mother of one of the managers of the guesthouse. You can feel the love as the main ingredient in each bite. Thank you very much to our dear Mohamed, Karem, Ala and Ibrahim. We will never forget our time here and hopefully in the future we will come back again. ❤️❤️❤️

Rayan Nubian Guest House is a true hidden gem in the heart of Elephantine Island — a small paradise right on the Nile. Although some finishing touches are still in progress, it’s already one of the most well-kept and well-equipped guest houses on the island: clean, welcoming, and full of thoughtful details that show how much care has gone into every corner. The view is simply breathtaking: from the terraces you can take in the calm waters of the Nile, the golden dunes of the western bank, the majestic Aga Khan Mausoleum, and right across, the lush Botanical Garden. It’s a postcard-perfect landscape that changes color and mood with the light of the day. The feluccas gliding by and the occasional tourist boats make the whole scene even more picturesque. But what truly makes Rayan guest house special is Mohamad. His kindness and hospitality perfectly embody the generous spirit of the Nubian community — sincere, warm, and deeply human. Always available, he arranged everything we asked for with remarkable care. He even anticipated our needs, guessing what might please us simply after a casual conversation. It’s one of those places that truly surprise you — in the best possible way — with their authenticity and heart. It leaves a mark on your memory, just like the sunset reflecting on the calm waters of the Nile right in front of the house. An experience we wholeheartedly recommend.

Excellent place to stay. Right on the Nile. Very quiet location. 5 minute walk from public ferry. Room was clean and comfortable with direct views of the Nile. Fast wifi 15+Mbps. Rooftop restaurant has great Nile views as well. They offer a free boat ride to the guesthouse on check in and a free boat ride back on check out. However, the public ferry from the KFC is cheap and easy. Good breakfast . Great host, exceptionally kind and caring. Goes out of his way to be helpful. Would definitely recommend staying there. There was a little shared area with sink, large fridge, kettle. Tip: if taking public ferry, don't follow Google maps walking directions. About 10 meters south of Kano Kato, there is a footpath to the right that goes through farm fields, take the narrow foot path, cross another road and take another footpath till you reach a 2nd road. Cross road to the far side of a small canal, walk north past Semara GH and Rayan is to the left. It's easier than it sounds.

This was my first time visiting Aswan and staying at this place made the whole experience amazing and unforgettable. The place was affordable with amazing view and everything I needed. The host is extremely kind and thoughtful and made sure I was comfortable from the start until the end. The hospitality was incredible and as a solo female travel I felt very safe and well taken care of. I couldn’t recommend this place more. Shoutout to Kareem, and I recommend this place to anyone looking to stay in this island.

Great location for a restful holiday, close to all the attractions without the noise from the city. + Beautiful and very comfortable room. The Guest House is new, well equipped and wonderful view. The terrace is large, perfect for enjoying the sun at breakfast. The room was very comfortable. Bathroom is spacious and well organized. There is AC excellent to use and the room was nice and cold at night. There is coffee, tea and tisane available at any time in the rooftop. Breakfast is Nubian style, with eggs, bread, vegetables, a bean sauce (foul) creamy local cheese, tasty falafel and coffee or tea. Everything was fresh and delicious. We especially enjoyed the quietness of the place, restful nights without noise. The hosts are warm and kind. This is a family business, so you will meet Mohamed, the host, as well as his wife and kids. They try their best to provide you with a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Mohamed picked us up from the ferry im his private boat and took to Elephatine, where they helped us with the bags. It is a very short walk to the guest house. They can also provide boats to visit the attractions around the Aswan. This is a perfect place for solo travellers or families - Everything was great!

I had an amazing stay at this hotel in Aswan. The place has a warm, welcoming atmosphere that made me feel right at home. The staff were incredibly kind and attentive — always ready to help with anything I needed,especially Mr. Karim and his staff. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the view from the windows was absolutely stunning, especially at sunset over the Nile. Breakfast was delicious and freshly prepared each morning by Madam Alaa. It’s also in a great location — peaceful, yet close enough to get around easily. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Aswan who wants a relaxed and authentic stay.

Karim the owner was waiting for us at midnight for the boat ride to the guest house (part of the service) and offered us a free room upgrade. He arranged tours and car, transfer from airport at good rates. Nice rooms and a sunny terrace for breakfast. The property is located in a quiet and safe area (as the rest of the Island is). Free access to kitchen and washing machine. Overall, the guesthouse is great value for money. Karim his friend Mohamed the rest of the family are lovely people, friendly and helpful. New larger rooms will be ready shortly. - The area totally safe all day and night making it easier to find the guesthouse at least the first time. And this adds to the adventure - - - - The place is very clean, and everything in it is brand new. The design of the place is modern, and the treatment from the owners is very kind and welcoming—they greeted us with smiles and treated us so nicely. The food is also absolutely delicious. Honestly, I wished I could have tried their signature dish, which is molokhia with eggs, but I missed out this time—maybe next time! As for the location, it's great and even offers a boat to Aswan if needed. They also have a very beautiful rooftop, especially in the morning when the ambiance is amazing. The only issue is that the view of the Nile is partially blocked, but overall, the experience is wonderful and the place is well worth visiting, especially because of the friendly people."

Warm, peaceful, and unforgettable stay in the heart of Aswan Island — very clean, very comfy, with stunning rooftop views, kind-hearted hosts, and cozy comfort! __________________________________________________________ I spent a nice time at Rayan Guest house on Aswan Island during my study trip, and honestly, it was one of the best parts of my journey! The location is perfect 10 minutes walk from the ferry ⛴️, making it super easy to get around. My room was so clean, cozy, and comfy 🛏️✨, with great facilities that made me feel right at home. But what made the experience truly special were the amazing hosts —Karim and his lovely wife Alaa . They were so kind, generous, and welcoming — they made me feel like part of their family 🫶. The rooftop restaurant was my favorite spot! Every morning, I enjoyed a delicious breakfast 🍳☕ with the most incredible view of the Nile, the sailboats, nature, and Mountains 🏞️🚤 — a view I’ll never get over! If you're heading to Aswan, I can't recommend Rayan Nubian Guest house enough! It's a peaceful, warm, and beautiful place to stay. 🌟

Totally nice

 hospitality and food, accompanied by breathtaking views. Rayan Nubian Guest house is located in the quiet place of Elephantine island. With adequate greeneries around the guest house and amazingLandscapes Nile river views, the overlooking blue water of the Nile river and the distant deserted hills on the river banks make this place a picture place to relax, in the midst of nature. Our host Karim , who is also the owner of this property is such a humble, friendly and helpful man. The moment we stepped into the guest house we felt like a home, with the warm hospitality from him and other staffs like Mohamed. He offered us a freshly made juice as the welcome drink, it was indeed very refreshing on a sunny day. He sent us a boat to the west bank from where Mohamed picked our luggage and we sailed to the island, all free of cost. Same during our check out as well. KARIM always made sure that right care is taken to his guests, he personally follows up for meal and any other local or outward tour arrangements, despite there were other guests present. We talked for quite a long on various subjects from the changing the landscape of this world, to our respective daily lifestyle in different parts of this planet. We never felt like we are in a hotel, its always been like yet another home. Karim allowed guests to use the kitchen to make tea or any other dietary requirements. There was a common washing machine as well that we used to rejuvenate our laundries. Overall, this was a very calm and warm homely environment to spend when someone is in Aswan. The roof top dining area is infact the most happening place of the property. Roof cover with Henna tree shed gives you a perfect natural environment to experience the soothing breeze and mesmerizing landscape dominated by the beautiful river Nile. The meals available here are true Nubian delicacies, like the Tanjin(Tagine) dishes, which are made with homely care. Thanks to Karim for making our trip a truly memorable one.

I really satisfied totally

Charming and rustic guest house overlooking the West Bank of the Nile, with warm and welcoming staff + We had a wonderful time at RayanNubianGuestHouse. It’s a tranquil and rustic property on the south of Elephantine Island, overlooking the West Bank of the Nile. A very peaceful location, and also an easy walk to the Elephantine archaeological site & Aswan Museum on the island. The rooftop restaurant had lovely views of the Nile, making it feel like a true oasis. But what makes it special is the manager – Karim took such great care of us and organised our trips to Philae (with one of his cousins, also called Mohammed, who was brilliant), Abu Simbel, and a 2-night Nile River Cruise for when we left Aswan. Wonderful hospitality and a very welcoming place! - It’s a brand new Guest house, everything there is new and very clean area Tip: To get to the property, you have to take the north Elephantine Island/Siou side public ferry (5 mins, EGP 10 each way), and then a short walk across the island through the unpaved village, which is a bit of a maze. It was always a charming and peaceful stroll, even at night, and didn’t bother us. Karim can arrange boat transfers to Aswan as well, which are direct to and from the property (also takes about 5-10 minutes) free Oh, and make sure you turn on the water heater switch before you shower! I really recommend this place for nice experience and honest staff All the best for the new business
