Hotel was very clean. Staff helpful. Everyone spoke English.

We truly enjoyed our stay at Villa Misk and were especially impressed by the staff’s hospitality—an authentic example of Egyptian warmth. Ahmed was incredibly helpful in planning our trips to Luxor and Abu Simbel.

The owner was great. Very helpful with sight seeing info and setting up rides. Great home cooked meals!!

This was excellent in all respects. Room large and clean, beautiful view of Nile 24 hours a day. Management was great, very helpful in assisting us in finding our way around the sites to see. Staff was friendly and helpful in so many ways. The location was excellent, very quiet and peaceful. Laundry service quick and inexpensive. We strongly recommend Villa Misk.

The view from the roof is outstanding. Wanted some quiet after busy cairo amd Luxor, find it here. And if there is something better than the view, it's the host and his family. Ahmed made it easy for me to go around the city and philae temple that you can even see from the room. Thanks very much Ahmed you made my trip to Aswan really unforgettable.

clean room, comfortable bed, nice and clean bathroom, most helpful owner who provided customized private tour at a reasonable price. The hotel is next to the ferry to Philae temple but far away from everything else. But they provided every meal we needed. Great view of the harbor, the old dam and Philae temple.

Very bad hotel. The only advantage is that it’s very close to the Philae Temple. There were lots of mosquitoes, and the bathroom door was broken—we couldn’t use it at all. On top of that, there’s nothing around the hotel, so you’re basically forced to eat dinner there, which was both awful and overpriced.

We stayed with Ahmed and he was so helpful in helping us at the last minute to find a driver to take us to Luxor. It was high season and last minute and yet he was able to accomplish that and help us throughout the trip even though the driver had some car trouble. He went above and beyond a service level that was among the best that I've seen in my previous 100+ countries that I've traveled to.

The hotel owner, Ahmed, is a very nice and helpful person. We ended up in Villa Misk after our reservation for a nile cruise from Aswan To Luxor was canceled the night before. So I made a last-minute reservation at Villa Misk and called them right after. Ahmed was very warm and helpful over the phone. After we got to the hotel, he greeted us and he helped us arrange a tour to Abu Simbel for the next time. Hotel itself is in an area outside the city. The initial room I had booked online did not have river view and had only a ceiling fan, we upgraded our stay to a room with river view and air conditioner for $20 additional fee per night and I think it was well worth it. The view was gorgueos. Thank you for all your help Ahmed!

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!
