Location is great. I had an issue with the air conditioning breaking down in the middle of the night, but they took care in a professional way. I will definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Abu Simbel.

This is the hotel to stay in Abu Simbel. It is nice resort and rooms are spacious. But, I booked a standard triple room that initially had 1 king bed. When I complained, I was put into a room that only had 2 twins instead of 3.
Had an issue with dried blood on my duvet cover when I pulled covers back - the hotel responded promptly and replaced the cover revealing a urine stained duvet insert which was not replaced.
Dinner buffet is expensive and food is alright. Included breakfast buffet is better.
Staff for the most part is good. But, as sun was setting and people gathered around the edge of the pool and lakeside to watch the sunset and take pictures. A clueless staff member with a bug/insectside fogger comes walking down the path and fogging up the area chasing people away just as the sun is setting.
As others have said, it is expensive because it is the only decent facility here. Front desk staff are good and arranged for reasonably priced transfers and guide.

It is not worth the price. It is very expensive, the rooms are old and the food is average.

This is probably the best option in Abu Simbel. A drawback is getting a taxi. You are better off arranging a guide with transportation if you are visiting alone, not in a group. The temples are close, but starting May temperatures creep over 40 degrees. Walking 20 min in scorching heat is not for everyone.

Mixed experience
Posted 18 Apr 2023 on Hotels2 weeks later and the verdict is still out for me. The staff is very kind, the views are super, the rooms were clean and unique. Location is great with an easy safe walk to Abu Simbel's temples.
It is virtually impossible to contact the hotel. I had sparrradic contact via the hotels.com chat site. We booked two triple for a family of 4--the only rooms they had left (every site had them sold out) for a whopping $800+ BUT when we arrived it was virtually empty with only a few other guests. We were put into doubles when we paid for triples. That felt like a bit of a money grab. But there really are not many other options in town. All said it is 100% worth being there where there are no crowds.
