This hotel is heaven on earth! The staff is wonderful. The location has an amazing view. If you are looking gor an escape from crazy, busy tourist sites, this is it. Beautiful pool, gorgeous rooms, fantastic executive chef and staff. Everyone was so nice. Miss them all already. Kudos to all! Yes, like others have said, it's far from things. But honestly, not that far. The TukTuk ride up and down is very bumpy and shaky. I found it fun but others with health or physical issues will not manage well on them. I would suggest that the hotel get a van when they can budget for one.

Its a lovely & colorful property, managed by some great people. Its located a bit far from the village below, but the ride to the property is worth it once you arrive and see the place. Lovely views of the Nile there. Also if you walk up at sunset, you get lovely views of it in d sand dunes.

Property property design is amazing and the view is breathtaking. The only two concerns is it’s far away from downtown Aswan plus the roads to get to the hotel are in a very bad shape and taxi refuses to go there. Dogs in the area are very noisy and bark a lot. If it’s your first time in Aswan, I would recommend you staying in downtown.

Beatiful and aesthetic location. Great view of the river Nile and city of Aswan. The staff is super freiendly and helpful. Wonderful experience. Great location to take instagrammable pictures and videos. Only pain point - there was no WiFi, as their internet reception was being affected by wind. Need to invest in better infrastructure for connectivity services. But everything else was wonderful.

Brand new resort, beautiful and pure magic✨

Kato Dool is the kind of place you don’t even want to review so you can keep it all to yourself. It is pure magic. Not only is it a beautiful location in the water, but the resort is brand new and everything is sparkling clean and perfect. Staff were so nice and made everything so easy for us. I’ve already recommended to everyone I know and we look forward to coming back on a yearly basis

This is a lovely and unique property. The hotel itself is a piece of art. The staff is kind and welcoming. The view from there is absolutely amazing! But it’s a hard to find place. There are no signs or paved roads to get to the hotel and as this is a new property most of the people on the village don’t know where it is. But once you get there, it’s worth the challenge to find it!

I love this property. It was authentic to the Nubian people who are from Aswan. The staff was accomadating and helpful. Food was delicious. Breakfast was more like a feast. Authentic Egyptian breakfast. Better to have the hotel send transportation from the airport. It is difficult to find as it is really off the beaten path. Sat and watched the sun rise from my room. Beautiful.

The property is absolutely beautiful. The rooms are decorated very lovely. Our room view overlooking the Nile was magnificent. The hotel is quite a distance away from the Nubian city. The ride to the hotel is unpleasant. However, when you reach the hotel, it is with it. The spa services were not available during our stay that would have been nice to have. The power went out several times and it was very hot and uncomfortable. The staff were very accommodating and kind.

My father and I very much enjoyed our stay at Kato Dool. The staff is warm and welcoming, the atmosphere/architecture is beautiful, the views are unbeatable and the food is out of this world. This is an excellent hotel run by true professionals. That said, I think it should be made clear on the listing that the terrain surrounding the hotel is very rugged and the transportation provided by the facility to attractions is not for everyone. I personally didn’t mind the tuktuk, but it was hard on my 77 year old father. Overall, however, I rate this hotel very highly and would definitely come back. I give it my highest recommendation and want to thank the staff for their hospitality.

Book this hotel immediately!

My biggest regret of our Egypt trip is that we only stayed here for one night! Kato Dool is everything and more that you see in the photos. The hotel is absolutely stunning, the service is impeccable, the breakfast and other meals were all absolutely delicious, and I don’t know how they managed to keep the pool cool in heat of the summer, but they did, and it was so refreshing! The hotel is situated on the West Bank, the quieter side and away from the city. Do note that it is quite a ride to get there, up a dirt road/hill and you have to get there by tuk-tuk (provided by the hotel), but it is absolutely worth it and the desert views along the way are beautiful. Don’t hesitate for even a moment - you must stay here while in Aswan, and make sure you book yourself an extra night to have a day to just relax by the pool and enjoy the views over the Nile!

Kato Dool is beautiful place to stay in the Nubian village of Aswan. It is peaceful with a gorgeous view of the Nile Cataract/Desert and has well designed rooms in colorful Nubian style. The staff is very friendly and effective at what they do. The only consideration (good and bad, both) is that it is cut-off from everything else with a dusty and bumpy road (as of our visit) of over 10mins. from the busy parts of the Nubian village. For those who are not driving, like us, the hotel provides a tuk tuk transportation to and from from the main village. However, for the price of the rooms in the hotel, I hope the management provides a covered geep for this purpose as the tuk tuk is fun only once or twice. Overall, it is highly recommended for the views and authentic experience of staying in Nubian village with good amenities, especially if one is driving.

Property is nice, very traditional as the Nubian Community. Staff very respectful and kind. The property is remote in the middle of nowhere, far away from the city center or any other places, no vehicles can access it, from the transportation left you to the hotel you are jumping in a tuk-tuk for about 15-20 mins through a bad isolate, dark and full of hole road, after 9 pm you have to pay for that service as well. The service staff in the restaurant and facility are slow taking 30 mins from order the breakfast to service on the table (simple breakfast) a cappuccino with and omelet. The wifi is not available in all the rooms as listed in expedia, only accessible in the lobby and restaurant.
