Great location, fantastic host.

Beautiful view from the room of the Aswan dam.

10/10 Exceptional

The owner is very friendly and speaks perfect English. He arranged for a taxi to pick us up at the airport and bring us to the hotel. The area in front of the hotel is beside the river. There was some construction happening on the the building that was a little inconvenient at the entrance, but the room was great! Cold air conditioning, comfortable beds ample sized room with beautiful view of the Nile and boats out the window.

El hotel está frente de la isla donde se encuentra el templo de Philae Ahmed the owner and his family are nice hosts and help you to do everything. The guy is so good even when we left the hotel he written us to see if we catch our transport on time.
Carlos, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Small, family-run hotel on the banks of the Nile below the old dam. Located in a residential neighborhod with a view of the Philae Temple, a short boat ride away. Although no alcohol is served, you can order from a set menu that is cooked from scratch, the cook is excellent. If you are looking for peace and quiet, and not being close to a lot of tourist amenities, then this hotel is for you.

Ahmed & his son Joseph were incredible hosts. From start to finish they made sure we had everything we needed, and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay in Aswan. Ahmed even made himself available throughout the day if we needed him for booking anything/communicating with locals. If you’re in Aswan, this is the place to stay! I couldn’t recommend it enough.

10/10 Exceptional

Love it here

The Villa Misk is a great spot to stay in right next to the Philae Temple and it is right next to the Nile River. Ahmed is a great host he scheduled all of our private transportation to Abu Simbel and on top of it he scheduled all our rides to visit all the temples in Luxor and the valley of the kings and queens. He made the our trip stress free and on top it he schedule our sunrise balloon ride over the valley of the kings.

Vivekananda, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Love the view from the villa. Faces the boats and can see beautiful sunset. Quiet and very conducive place for rest and going to Philae Temple. The owner, Ahmed is very helpful, very kind and supportive, helped us to organize the trip to Abu Simble. After we left the hotel, he even helped us arranged Nile Cruise, hot air balloon rider in Luxor. I have to say without his help, my trip wouldn't be that smooth and enjoyable, I really appreciated Ahmed's help.

10/10 Exceptional

This place made me feel at home although I was far from home. I stayed here to visit Abu Simbel and Philae temple and it was our experience was amazing and one of the nicest place we stayed at during our Egypt travel. It’s a family owned place and the owner is so accommodating. All rooms have a gorgeous view of the Nile River. All rooms were clean with nice clean sheets and towels. I felt safe here and would recommend staying here to anyone. Also, they have a good menu to order off of and our meals were so good! You can tell everything was made with fresh and clean ingredients. 13/10 would come back here and recommend to anyone staying in Aswan area
Uyen, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The area is remote. Very limited food/restaurant. The owner live upstairs and most of the time no one is downstairs. If you need something, you have to ring the bell at the counter. If you want to order food you have to order in advance at least 1 hour. There is room without AC, so check what’s included before you pay.

From 8,000 miles away, Mr Shawky of Villa Misk foresaw and took care of all of my concerns. He took care of my transportation to and from the airport, train station, and any tours that I wanted. He saw to it that I had delicious home-cooked meals served at inconvenient hours, with plenty of drinking water! He knew that Philae and the controversy of damming the Nile were of great interest to me, and not only shared his personal insight, but arranged for a private boat tour with guide and pilot, who took me out to this phoenix of a temple, and then showed me the lake from dam to dam, to show me more of the unimaginable! My stay was cared for by staff who made me feel at home, and let me relax after an arduous journey, while preparing for the next. Ahmed gave me a room with a panoramic view of the harbor and Philae Temple itself! He gifted me more than just a suite, he gave me memories that will last a lifetime. It took a bus, three planes, and a taxi for me to get to Villa Misk, but once there, I could have just sat by their window admiring the view and it would have been worth it, but only because Ahmed was in the background handling all of my concerns! I thank him, and all of the Villa Misk staff for their efforts. Each and every one of them went out of their way to make my stay a beautiful memory. Thank you for sharing your home with me!

VALERIE, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Per trovarla abbiamo dovuto fare due volte il giro e con l'aiuto di google maps, un pò d'intuito e fortuna siamo riusciti a trovarla. Posto assurdo dove si trova praticamente questa casa che ha delle camere che a mala pena si possono chiamare stanze. Letto scomodo , senza praticamente asciugamani, con mobili vetusti , fili elettrici a penzoloni ed è meglio che mi fermo quì. Colazione inesistente come la sala che non è una sala ma un tavolo messo a casaccio dove si siedono tutti per consumare . Assolutamente sconsigliato
Antonio, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Good place to stay if you are on a budget.

We arrived around midnight, and we had arranged to have them pick us up from the airport. This worked great and they provided great service. The hotel is small and run by a family. They provided good service in getting our luggage up to our room. The furniture in the room was outdated and felt dusty. The bathroom was clean, and the bed was comfortable. We paid extra to have breakfast the next morning. It was served family style and none of the foods appealed to me. There was no coffee or tea. The water bottles provided were not cold. Overall, it is a good place to stay if you are on a budget and you want to see the Philae temple which is pictured on their website/

Great property with an amazing view at the Nile river! This was my first time traveling to Aswan and I am happy that I choose this hotel. Ahmed, the property owner was helpful and kind. He was able to get me a driver to Abu Simbel and to Luxor with little notice, definitely an amazing experience!

A hidden gem with views of Phllae Temple

Villa Misk is a real gem. The views are stunning, the room comfortable and clean. The home made food was divine and the owner Ahmed was so helpful with arranging excursions and imparting valuable advice about the cruises. The local road to get there is unpaved - but keep the course because it is worth it !

8/10 Very good

Initially scary, but clean room, great host & view

Villa Misk scared us when we first got there. It looks very unfinished, and is a project under construction, and the road outside is a mud road, at least when we got there in Feb 2025. But the host, Ahmed, has an American accent and is very friendly and hospitable, as is his family. The room we had was spacious, with an amazing view of lake Nasser, the motorboats in the lake, and the Island of the temple of Isis. The breakfast was authentic Egyptian, but for me personally, it was passable. There is very little around the Villa itself in terms of shopping and restaurants, but the host set us up with a reasonably priced driver that made us feel less stuck. Uber does not work in Aswan, so you need a driver, or the taxis will rip you off. The host also set us up with a motorboat on the evening we arrived, and we saw lake Nasser, the Nubian island of Heissa, and the temple of Isis at night.
