I was a solo woman traveler and got royally sick of one leering desk clerk, and he kind of soured me on the rest of the experience. Most of the staff had little or no English so I was steered wrong about the ability to get to Abu Simbel. I never got there. At the back overlooking a very noisy... More

I think the best part about staying at Memnon is that they provide the tourists with genuine rates, starting from coffee(3EGP for 2) to taking a trip to Abu Simbel. Though the rooms arent fancy, their service is quite good and the guys at the reception are very patient and reasonable. I was impressed when they let me change the... More

We stayed here for one night before moving to the reasonable but more expensive Keylany Hotel. We were given a room on the front with a great view of the Nile but a very loud moored ferry kept us up nearly all night, as the windows were so thin. It had evidently not been cleaned for our arrival as there... More

Clean, cheap and sufficient hotel for any budget traveler in Aswan, superb Nile-views from the rooms, very good location. Unfortunately the rooftop terrace and the pool are not in use (no water in the pool and dirty) but still a good place for even better Nile views! The tours they offer are reasonably priced and ok (we did Abu Simbel,... More

We stayed at the Memnon in Aswan for 4 nights. The staff were very friendly and extremely helpful. They picked us up at the train station even though the train was 2 hrs late. The staff organised some great trips for us. An afternoon trip to Abu Simbel in a private taxi, we had Abu Simbel to ourselves, and also... More

This hotel is difficult to find but when you get inside is nice. Our room was big but the bathroom door was broken which caused us issues, however we were only staying for one night so didnt see the point in complaining! The views are great from the room and the room terrace. Sadly when we got there the pool... More

We stayed at the Memnon for one night in May. For the price, this is a reasonable hotel. While old, it's relatively clean and our room had a great Nile view and air-conditioning. During the time of stay, Memnon were repainting their stairway. We took the Abu Simbel day trip and were provided a box for breakfast consistent of an... More

we spent 3 days here and it was perfect! We even bought a bus trip to Abu simbel for the day. The leave at 4h am if I remember, to follow the convoy. So because we left early, they even prepare you a breakfast boxe to bring with you on the bus! The service was great the staff are kind.... More
