We're budget travelers who wanted to splash out for a night at the legendary hotel and we are so glad we did. The pool is fantastic, the staff very friendly and let us use the spa facilities before our check in time which, from a long, hot, walk from the train station was very welcome. The breakfast was delightful and the views 10/10. P.s. I think the staff are told not to accept tips as we tried a couple of times and seemed to upset people so be aware.

Excellent stay at the prestige suite with nile view! I booked the suite for the first night as my original plan was to get on the cruise the next day. However, there was a mix up with cruise date and the suite was not available for the second day at the time of booking so I booked the king's room which was $400 cheaper than the suite. When I was at the hotel, the staff offered me the suite for the 2nd day without charging the price difference! All staff were very friendly, the restaurants are magnificent. Will definitely stay here again when I'm back! Make sure you get a room with nile view, I literally just sat at the balcony admiring the river the entire afternoon haha. Breathtaking.

We are well travelled middle aged couple. The hotel had one of the best views. We stayed in a Nile ile view suite. The suite had the most beautiful bathroom and spacious, and the view of the Aswan nile view. The pool area has the best view and the staff around the pool and the restaurants were wonderful. Not the same for the female reception staff.

The entire stay was amazing , all staff are extremely friendly and knowledgeable .We were lucky to meet Ms. Marvel who made our stay marvelous .Visiting this hotel had been on my list for 8 years after watching the famous series and i admit I wasnt disappointed . Make sure to dine at 1902 it is beautiful. The hotel is indeed on the pricy side , if you can treat yourself then it is worth it :) .One of the best hotels I had ever stayed in and I had been to quite a few luxury hotels .

I would like to say the pictures of the hotel are beautiful and great on the internet, but you have to experience this hotel in person. The wonderful staff from driving up to the hotel gates are amazing and classy. So where can I start with this dream vacation of me and my wife. The security team and Mr. Mustafa was courteous from the check-in. We later entered the beautiful garden and reception area and was greeted by Mohammed Khaled. He was the best and treated us well from the beginning of our visit until the last day. My wife became slightly ill on one of our day's visiting this historical hotel. He sent out help to retrieve the necessary medication so her and I can continue our dream vacation. It so many things to list but the great restuarant staff is top shelf. The great Chef Mr. Zackariya and staff entertained our taste buds with wonderful meals on our entire stay. We recommend visiting The Catarat Hotel and plan to visit again in the future.
