Staff were pleasant and helpful but the cleanliness of the hotel leaves a lot to be desired. Something had been spilt on the floor in the hall and was there for the entire 2 days we were at the hotel. The pool chairs were dirty. Breakfast buffet was fine. The evening menu items were better than the evening buffet. The hotel location is close to the river cruises but it is not a nice area to walk.

The hotel staff are amazing. We were upgraded on arrival and the room view and location were excellent. The breakfast buffet was huge and fantastic.
But here’s the problem with this hotel. It’s old. It needs a proper refurbishment. The decor looks like it’s from the 1990s and that’s why I think it’s overpriced. It’s more of a 4 star hotel than a 5.

very nice hotel. Accommodations were very nice. I won’t give it an accent because our room was very outdated but very clean and comfortable. Beautiful view of the Nile river. Food was nice and the staff was wonderful.

Excellent stay at the Tolip Hotel! I stayed for two days over the Christmas holiday and would definitely stay again if I visit in the future. The location is very convenient, the staff are warm and friendly, and the food was amazing. I thoroughly enjoyed both my Christmas Eve dinner and Christmas Day dinner as well. The rooms are impeccable, very clean and equipped with all the necessary conveniences. Highly recommend

Staying at The Tolip Hotel for beautiful overlooking views of The Nile or the city of Aswan is already winning, but staying around the Christmas New Year holidays is amazing! We were guests treated like family receiving complimentary Christmas card, fruit & sweet snack bags and chocolate cake rolls on Christmas Eve. We enjoyed both the room service meal options and dining in the restaurant with very polite staff hospitality. All reception staff were welcoming, porters were exceptionally warm friendly and helpful, and housekeeping was vigilant about providing whatever we needed and making sure no mosquitoes could creep in from the balcony and bother us. It was too cold for us to swim, but the swimming pools were lovely on the Nile side.
Overall, The Tolip makes us want to return as soon as we can.

Overall, the hotel, pool and personnel I encountered were all very lovely and extremely helpful. I visited the pool, fitness room, bar and the dining room. My only concerning moment was the urgency of a waiter who hovered over my every move at dinner - especially when it came to paying for the meal. It was very strange and off putting. In fact I avoided going back to the dining room because of the experience.

This appears to be the major hotel in Aswan. It was good value for the price. Our suite facing the Nile also offered a nice view of the swimming pool down below. We had a pre-view of the Jaz cruise ship we were about to take from the hotel balcony. We ordered in-room dining which was decent.

The hotel was absolutely wonderful with no complaints at all. Every staff member was warm, welcoming, and always ready to help with a smile. The food was delicious, and on one occasion when I had a tour at 5 am, they kindly prepared a lovely breakfast basket for me to take along. I truly appreciated the thoughtful touches throughout my stay.

Best location in Aswan. We have stayed here several times before. Top of the town and on the Nile. Quiet and tranquil. Upgraded to a Junior Suite. Great view and spacious. Management also allowed my cousin (who mistakenly booked the wrong hotel) to use the poolside with us after his trips. So, thank you. Unfortunately, some services could be better. I had to clean the balcony chairs from a layer of dust before use. No pool attendant or towels until after 10 am, and pool snacks always arrive cold. However, the guest relations managers (Monika and Sarah) were superb with us, and the General Manager Mr. Mohamed
Ragab was an excellent host. I am confident that these small issues will be resolved to make our next stay even better. God willing, see you soon. Thank you.

Not worth the money & definitely don’t recommend.

Really old hotel that hasn’t evolved.
Checkin staff are not helpful & act as if they’re doing you a favor by doing their job.
Rooms are gross & desperate need of a good clean. Bathrooms have mouldy grout & stains toilets.

Restaurant staff are attentive, incredibly polite & the only redeeming factor.

I used the “spa” for a massage & it was likely the worst massage I’ve ever received. The masseuse is clearly untrained, likely never given anyone a massage before & so incredibly disorganized. Definitely do NOT recommend the spa.

There were significant issues with the room. Toilet had to be fixed twice in our less than 48 hour visit. WiFi didn’t reach the room and the hotel was unable to address the issue. Breakfast was fine. I would recommend against this property - it is hostel quality at luxury prices. This is barely a 3 star hotel.

Expedia really let us down this time. We paid around $288 per night for this hotel thinking it was a great place. Hotel should be rated a two star hotel max. Very old, depressing, main lights in the room didn’t work, staff seemed sad, food was terrible, etc. Felt like we were in an isolated asylum and we were probably the only ones staying there. So disappointing.

Hotel with a good intention

We had a good experience at this hotel. We only stayed for one night. Service was good but not excellent. Signaling to get to places was poor. Many of the staff members would not speak English and even though most of they tried to assist they were not properly trained or did not know themselves how to help. Our was upgraded to one of the VIP villages next to the nile and the room had ample space and a magnificent view to the pool and the Nile. The room however was not very clean. The sofa had not been vacuumed properly. The TV remote controller had a leather case that was worned out looking old and dirty. We were offered complementary fruits. Overall our experience was not bad and it was a positive one but attention to details would improve the experience of the guests.
I have to mention that we visited the shops in the hotel. The jewelry store an some beautiful items at a very fair price. The young man at the store was very pasive and not pushy as most salesman. We also bought a bag and other items at the other store (in front of the jewelry store). We are very happy with the products we purchased. Good quality and fair price.

the property could not take credit card to check out. we had a trip planned at 5:30am and waited for an hour. in the end we had to pay cash.

this hotel is the worst among all Egyptian hotels we stayed in. not clean, and the shower water is either too hot or too cold and change irregularly. no way to have a good shower after a long hot day.

Property was gorgeous with the Nile suites very spacious, next to the pool, and next to the river. Great sunset views! The event center was fun with bowling, billiards, and other games. Had three issues: (1) Room service food and quality of service were not good. Main issue was the lack of English-speaking ability among the staff resulting in messing up my order multiple times. Also, the meat was always overcooked and quite dry. (2) Wi-Fi did not work while we were there as they said they were updating the system. (3) Hot water in the shower was not consistently available. With all that said, I would still go back as the property was beautiful and service was friendly.

I would have been spectacular but the room was tired..rust on faucets corners of the shower were black with age ot possibly mold. My wide could not sleep on the rock of a maitress. Reception area is beautiful the staff were wonderful and breakfast was really well done. Great vistas from the breakfast deck the main hotel seems really spectacular. Dont pay extrs to do across the street it sucks.

The hotel was right next to the ship we had to get onto which was really convenient however, the room we stayed in could have been a little more cleaner. The staff were great until we had to get a taxi driver to take us to the unfinished obelisk where we were scammed by the driver. I thought by getting the concierge to get us the drive would have helped us get a reasonably priced driver not $40

A tired old lady way past its prime

THis hotel reminds me of a 60+ year old primadona...she was once the star, but is now just a heavily painted old lady with many visible lines. The room is spacious, but tired, with old uncomfortable mattresses and a tired rest room. Internet did NOT work...and front office just stated that as a fact, with no other ecorse, but to go to the lobby for a very slow, almost unusable option. For the price, this was not at all what one would expect or accept in Europe, developed Asia or North America.

Great Option Mid Range Hotel with Breakfast

Our check in was taken care of quickly, we stayed down in the bungalows by the pool. It is a hike to the main hotel, but we loved the quiet rooms next to the Nile. Breakfast was included in the room which was fantastic. The hotel is dated, and the tv small but the room service is cheap and fast. The rooms were large and clean- just be careful of the balcony sliding door, if you close it when you are outside you get locked out. The staff was great but their secret weapon is the concierge Monica, she is amazing and helped handle our travel reservations for tours and our Nile Cruise. Always ask for Monica, she is fantastic!!!!

The hotel is nice but a bit dated and needs some repair and renovations.

The rooms are quite big and have a living room and table, and a small fridge, but no glasses or any other utensils, or plates. The pool area is overlooking the Nile and is beautiful.

Worst hotel I have stayed in in a very long time. Room was not ready but they didn’t say so and just asked us to wait which took an hour and half even though I asked how long as we could go out and come back. We gave up waiting after an additional half hour for our luggage and went and got it ourselves. On check out we were already getting into cab before they offered to help with luggage. Check staff not at all welcoming, every question sent us to a different desk and no answers even to how much a taxi should cost. They were not helpful at all about questions for finding a restaurant for dinner but just wNted to sell us their gala package
Toilet was leaking in bathroom resulting in wet floor. Beds were so uncomfortable that I considered sleeping on the floor. This is barely a two star hotel. Extremely disappointed in Expedia rating. You should know better.
