Hi everyone,I will recommend this hotel to any couple no kids because the best place and location on the Nile .with view to kill.in the center of the nobian village Aswan .enjoy camel 🐪 rides, everything hand made in village . Delicious free breakfast. Remember no tv ,but free wifi , 2 night maximum more than enough.and the best thing is the service best stuff.and super clean rooms.
This was really an incredible expirience. It was like a dream come true to have a balcony on the nile. I really enjoyed the restaraunt as well. Somaya higagy and abdelrahman both provided outstanding customer service. I dream of staying here again!!
The customer service is excellent. Samaya was a life saver. Just be aware that there is construction happening on the dirt roads and vehicles are unable to drop/pick up at hotel. We needed to pay extra for a tuk-tuk to get us to out to our taxi.
Wow!! An incredible find- book now!! The staff is incredible & hospitality always with a joy filled smile. Incredibly well decorated with amazing combination of Nubian & Greek influence. Actually met the designer, she works at the hotel & I praised her on the decor!! Food was good, large portions & fresh. Walked the village with bright colored homes, market shops & camels. Bed were comfortable. Views spectacular!!
Wonderful day, the manager could not have been more accommodating, they help me organise excursions and sort every issue I did in my trip. Extremely professional and caring. Would come back. Superb
Lovely little boutique guesthouse right on the Nile. It's a bit hard to find and far out of town (in the Nubian village) but the hotel will book you a taxi or there's also a ferry dock outside. We really liked the spacious rooms and nice decor. The beds were the most comfortable we found in Egypt after staying in many places! The rooftop restaurant overlooking the Nile was also great and I've never seen such an enormous breakfast spread in my life! We had to pack most of it up for lunch. The staff are friendly and helped us organise a very reasonably priced trip to Philae Temple.
I stayed for 2 nights with my GF.
It was a pleasant stay.
The hotel staff was friendly and helped us with booking transport for our excursions and arranging activities.
We only had one issue with the bathroom tap but that was resolved in good time and I am happy with how that was dealt with. Breakfast was okay but nothing special that said nowhere in egypt was the food really amazing so dont let that put you off.
Got us a transfer to the airport the morning we left.
Would recommend this place if you want somewhere in the Nubian Village.
Wow…!!!!!!
Absolutely fantastic, and a must!!!
We chose Dolby Kato because of the colours, and location in Aswan after a Luxor to Aswan cruise, not realising how special the Nubian Village was in itself.
Right from the start, the communication was excellent, including advice to make sure the taxi would make it all the way to the front door (which he did, despite being unsure).
Check-in was great, efficient, courteous and welcoming. The beautiful room was ‘refreshed’ literally as we walked in - it was super clean already. Plenty of excursions are on offer, so though we used the hotel as a transit for one night, I will consider it as a destination in itself next time.
Finally, the restaurant. Another WOW!!! We stayed in for dinner as we arrived late and had an early start. The view of the Nile and over the boat ‘harbour’ ferrying groups coming to visit the village was vibrant and fun. And the food…superb! Though we ate well our whole time in Egypt, this proved to be our best meal (you don’t have to stay to eat there by the way, so stop by!!). Cooked from fresh and sooo tasty!!
They arranged an airport transfer for the morning which was no hassle, providing a packed breakfast.
All in all, a true gem in location, comfort, service, good, basically everything. I’d strongly suggest adding it to your itinerary if you’re in Aswan, I wish we could have stayed longer.
Our stay here started on a crazy note but the staff at Dolty Kaho were very welcoming and helpful.
Mr. Samir (the manager) did an excellent job at answering all our questions and arranging things for us during our stay. The rates were fair and not the extra tourist prices that I came across everywhere in Egypt.
Its a beautiful and unique spot with the only issue being that its not easy to locate due to small and busy roads.
Although not a 5 star hotel - if you wanna experience the hospitality of a Nubian Village, then I highly recommend it. The food was excellent and the market is right at the doorstep.
Overall, a unique and enjoyable stay.
this is the most terrible hotel i have ever stayed in, booked 4 nights stayed 6 hours as we arrived 1am ,lifted 7am, it's in village NO ROADS, NO SAFETY, you can arrive it only through vespa or camels, all Expedia photos are FAKES, No transaction can go there you have to ride a camel or small vespa " toktok" in dusty , pumping & very dirty area for 2k.m to reach the actual street
AVOID to go there even it's for free accommodation
