Top 5 hotels in Abu Simbel, Egypt

August 12, 2022 Agatha Simes

Abu Simbel is a charming, compact town—it's navigable by foot and makes an easy daytrip from Aswan. However, the town's main attractions, the Temple of Ramses II and Nefertari's Temple of Hathor, were almost lost to the rising waters of Lake Nasser in the 1960s. Fortunately, UNESCO stepped in and saved them, preserving the intricate carvings inside both structures. After exploring the temple interiors, take in stunning views over the lake and desert. (Editor's note: Our list was compiled before political unrest prompted many countries to issue travel warnings for Egypt. If you're currently planning a trip to Egypt, please consider the risks and monitor your government's travel alerts.)

Fantastic place to stay in Abu Simbel. Really worthy to stay overnight as you get to see the town in the evening without the crowds. This place is a Nubian museums in itself and the attention and care of all staff is top. We really will come back if we ever have the chance

Applicators Hotel

Expected Experience For The Budget Price

Reviewed By beaubo

A hotel that is budget-priced should have the chance to earn five stars for the pricing category that they are in. Applicators makes no pretense for being a high quality hotel, so they shouldn't be penalized for basic rooms or modest breakfasts, because hat is the market and price niche they target. Despite the drab interior of the room, it was clean, the bed was comfortable, the shower pressure was good. The breakfast was equally functional, but nothing more or less. For staying overnight and literally just sleeping and showering there and otherwise not even being on the premises, the price was a good value, not great or poor. It is what it is and we were happy to use the money that we saved on the hotel for the sound and light show and. delicious fresh fish meal in Abu Simbel.

Loved this place! Cute rooms are comfortable with view

Reviewed By Tinnesz

I loved staying here.. The Nubian village theme is beautiful, they keep up the grounds well and the pool area is nice. The views of Lake Nassar are also quite pretty. The staff was very attentive, the rooms are comfortable, big, clean, pretty. Everything here was perfect. I needed help figuring out the safe and air conditioner, but they came quickly and it was easy. The restaurant was also good. I bought many souvenirs at their gift shop. Great experience.
