Step into the legendary site where King Fouad once entertained and Agatha Christie sipped cocktails: the 5-star Sofitel Legend Old Cataract Aswan Hotel. In the Nubian Desert on the banks of the Nile, opposite Elephantine Island, the majestic hotel sits on a pink granite cliff overlooking the world's longest river. This ravishing hotel with its legendary guest list of royals and dignitaries is both ideal for romantic getaways, and a perfect venue for small summits and corporate meetings.

Many celebrities have stayed at this hotel, where I enjoyed the view worth seeing from anywhere while staying in a fabulous room. Especially the view of the Nile from the rooms is breathtakingly beautiful.
I can't help feeling how much effort goes into maintaining the hotel's facilities, including the garden. Moreover, as an attention to detail, towels in the room are embroidered with the hotel logo, and the cotton package containing the hair dryer is also embroidered with ”Wonderful hair begins with a little wind” . I would like to express my respect to all the people who have continued to put such attention to detail into their work!
I would highly recommend this hotel and I look forward to visiting again in the near future!

The hotel was beyond my expectation. First of all, when we checked in, the front desk saw that we were a family of three and upgraded us to a three-bed room for free. In Egypt, where prices are high, this service is particularly good. Secondly, the hotel has a beautiful river view. Although it is not at the old waterfall, the river view here is not bad. There is a pier next to it, so it is also convenient to take a sailboat. We made an appointment for a sailboat at the pier outside at night, and the boatman took us directly to the hotel's pier after the end. It was super convenient.
The downside is that the breakfast is white rice, which is not delicious and barely full. But I didn't eat anything delicious in Egypt.

The check-in process became a bit unpleasant as their stated policies did not match what was written in our trip.com booking confirmation. This included check-in time and number of guests for the room. We included our children and even had their ages listed in the confirmation. Upon check-in we were told that it was only a room for two adults. We were then instructed to pay extra for one child. Policies should be conveyed clearly when booking so we can know what to expect.
Otherwise, the room had a beautiful view and the kids enjoyed the large pool. The breakfast buffet had a great selection.

The price of a four-star hotel is not cheap in Aswan, but the location is OK. The Nile River is less than 1 km away, so it is convenient for eating and traveling. It is less than 500 meters away from the Old Falls Hotel. It is just a two-step walk away. It is convenient to visit. The outdoor scenery is OK. But it is definitely not as good as the Old Falls.
The Nubian Museum is right outside the door, and there are many Nubian women selling small items at stalls next to it, with very favorable prices. Be careful of the coachman, who will steal things by taking advantage of the children! The breakfast variety is obviously worse than that of the Cairo Hotel, but it is still acceptable!

The hotel is on the hill, the environment is very beautiful, there is a small pool, the restaurant and the big pool are under the mountain. You can enjoy the beautiful view of the Nile in the room, which is really beautiful. The waiters are hospitable and attentive. They have unfinished snacks and fruits every day. Knowing that we have no time to eat breakfast, we specially prepared two large bags of breakfast for us to eat on the road. It was so intimate. The room was clean and tidy, the facilities were very new, the waiter would fold a small snake for us every day, stayed for three days, it was different, thank you very much! I like this hotel very much.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! First of all it is like a staying with your family far from home, in a very tourist welcoming area in general but also the hotel. All Nubian people are welcoming and honest; especially if you are coming from somewhere other than Egypt you will feel refreshed getting rid of bargaining. Hotel arranged an Abu Simbel transportation (which was 3 hours away)with lunch box for us early in the morning at 04:00 am we came back around 1 pm and take a tour to Philae Temple then came back to hotel (which was our cozy home) and Ahmed took us to village as a local, guided as and provided fair prices, we experienced their culture seeing the magnificently painted surroundings also jumping in local houses with tortoise and crocodiles, and they have provided us transportation to Aswan Train Station. I even felt sad because of leaving a place with full of brothers. Thanks to Ahmed (both), Ms Mai, Mohammed and Islam. It was an amazing experience, you shall not say i’ve visited Egypt before seeing Nubian Village.

It was late at night when we landed on the island. We left before dawn. I felt a bit disappointed that I didn’t see the river view. I hope I can come again next time. After all, it’s only over a hundred dollars. It’s good to have an outdoor private bath.

Every day when I return to the room, it is carefully decorated and my clothes are carefully organized. The Nile River outside at dusk is the most beautiful scenery. The bed and pillows were very comfortable and we were very satisfied. The only drawback was that there were not many meal options, probably because of Ramadan. I don't understand why lunch and dinner cost the same but the amount of fries is three times the amount. The service staff was very nice and attentive. They knew it was my birthday and sent me a surprise, which was very unexpected to me. The birthday cake was the most delicious dessert I have ever had in Egypt. 💕

The scenery is quite good. The service attitude is quite average. I went to the front desk and asked if I could pay for the room in Egyptian pounds. My attitude was extremely harsh. I didn't want to move to the hotel on the second night, so I inquired about extending my stay. The front desk asked me to go back to the room and call me. In the end, I didn't receive a call, so I checked out directly. The rooms in this hotel are quite large, and the facilities are relatively old. It feels like they are chosen by locals. In addition, you must choose the number of people according to the actual number. I accidentally selected one person, and ended up paying a price difference of dozens of dollars.

GGuest UserThe most important thing in this hotel is not food, though it is perfect, and not even a stunning view from the windows - sincere location and readiness of Ahmed Shauki - the manager and host of the hotel, to help its guests in everything - that 's what makes Villa Misk the best!
