Seti Abu Simbel Hotel

Abu Simbel

5 stars hotel??? Is it a joke??? 
The location is great but the hotel is completely run down. 
Sunbeds by the pool cover with poo of birds, ashtrays full of cigarettes, bad smell in the restaurant, bad food, no cup for coffee (only cardboard at breakfast). 
Ridiculously high price for being in Egypt. 
No WiFi in the rooms!!!!! Only in the common areas. 

5 stars only in the price

This may be the best accommodation option in Abu Simbel, being situated on the lake and within walking distance of the temples.  It is pitched at tour groups who stay for one night.
The rooms are comfortable.
There is no WIFI except in some of public areas, and no functioning TV channels. It feels like the hotel just does the basics, even to limiting the bottled water in the rooms.
Food is ok, but again pitched at tourist groups so in cafeteria mode.
A la carte menu prices are in US dollars.
Rates can be very high so it does not represent good value for money, but you will probably only need to stay one night so you may decide that is a reasonable trade-off.

Expensive and basic

The staff is very friendly.  The rooms are wonderful.  Bright with inviting colors.  Not to mention spacious.  The pool area was awesome.  Multiple pools to swim in.  Poolside bar and plenty of seating.  I have a lovely afternoon just relaxing and enjoying the atmosphere.  I ate dinner and breakfast there.  The food selection was great.  I wish I could have stayed longer.  

Paradise awaits 

Located barely a 6 minutes away from the airport, this is possibly the best hotel that one can get in Abu Simbel. Located on the shores of Lake Nasser, the hotel is a fairly large property, with some amazing views of the lake. A circular driveway led to the hotel, and while some rooms face the driveway, most of the property is behind the reception. There is a in house store selling Egyptian artefacts

We were fortunate to get an early check in, which was smooth, though slightly long drawn. The rooms we were given were suites - an upgrade that was very welcome. A sitting room and a bedroom, with one and a half bathrooms between them, meant that we could really spread out. The amenities were top class, as were the furnishings. Each of the rooms had its own airconditioning unit. The wardrobes were quite spacious and there was enough space to open two suitcases comfortably - a feature that is sorely lacking in most modern properties. Safe deposit boxes were available in our rooms

Abu Simbel is a sleepy town, so, even though, the hotel is at the edge of the town, there is not much to do on the outside. The hotel is a 10 minute car ride from the monuments at Abu Simbel. This permitted us enough time to recover from an early morning start and then visit the monuments as also attend a rather indifferent Sound and Light show in the evening.

There is a large pool on site with wide open spaces. There are enough lounge chairs to soak in the sun for those who are so inclined. Facing west with Lake Nasser in the foreground, it offered us a brilliant sunset to watch. That sight alone, made our stay here worth the while.

There are one restaurant in the premises that serves a buffet dinner and a cafe that serves a la carte items. The buffet was weighted heavily to serving non-vegetarians and hence we were forced to order items from the cafe. The pizza was insipid and the pasta was only slightly better. However, the lack of other dining options, in the town, meant that we were captive clients.

Breakfast next morning was a little better, with more options for us. The ubiquitous falafel was available, as also sautéed vegetables. Pancakes were premade.available, but not to order. Check out was quite simple and did not take too long. The staff were extremely courteous throughout our stay.

While a lot of tourist visit Abu Simbel as a day trip, if one has to stay overnight, this would definitely be a place to consider.

The Best Abu Simbel has to offer

I have traveled to Egypt many times. Of all the wonderful hotels in which I have stayed, the Seti Abu Simbel Lake Resort remains one of my favorites!  It is an oasis of luxury with a relaxed ambiance. Situated on Lake Nasser, the view is spectacular.  The pools are large with poolside seating for those who wish to soak up some sun as well as those who wish to relax under a protective canopy. Great service is provided by a friendly and competent staff.  The hotel manager, Essam El Shraby, is readily available and eager to assist. There is a restaurant on hotel grounds with a wide selection of delicious food, and gift shops to browse without hassle.  As an additional bonus, the hotel is within easy walking distance to the magnificent Abu Simbel complex.  Highly recommended!

An Oasis of Relaxed Luxury

I've stayed for a short time at that hotel where i experienced so many wonderful things around starting from the good. welcome, hospitality and the atmosphere                     
Indeed the food and service at restaurant is
 very good adapted with the city style
The location of the hotel is very good on the lake

Nice stay

It's a hotel with incredible views of the lake, one of the most beautiful in the area.The staff was very friendly, and we had breakfast and dinner.The food was buffet style, with lots of options and even live music.The rooms were spacious, with everything needed for a good stay.We stayed only one night, but it was worth it!

Close to the lake.

This hotel has so much charm and is set in the most beautiful location – on the edge of Lake Nasser.

The rooms are definitely 3 star and in need of some maintenance, but it was great being able to sit on the balcony and look out over the lake.  The pool area is lovely.  The grounds are immaculate and beautifully kept.  I was impressed with the hotel’s efforts with recycling. 

We arrived around 9.00pm and got room service which was ok.  The breakfast was good and there are a few wee shops in the complex.

If time allows, I recommend having two nights at this hotel and in Abu Simbel.  It is a place where you can unwind, enjoy the surroundings and go for walks around the lake.  


Absolutely Charming

A breath of peace and wonderful views of Lake Nasser on the busy journey through Egypt. next to the temple of Abu Simbel. Spacious and comfortable rooms and a restaurant with a wide variety and good quality. very friendly and professional staff.

A parenthesis in the visit marathon.

Everything was perfect, rooms are beautiful and we loved the swimming pool in the middle of the desert! Abu Simbel temple is at 10-15' by feet. 
The most precious in this hotel is the manager: always available, paying close attention to every little need we had, serving with heart and kindness, it was a great pleasure to meet such a person. Thank you!
