Orchida St. George Hotel

When I saw the pictures it was interesting. When I got there it was only disappointing.

Great location. 15 minutes walking distance to train station and the big market where they sell everything, no need to take taxi. Location is good, very convenient. Cross Street is the Nile River with all the boats, got KFC next to it, beautiful and romantic to walk around. Room and beds are very small, smells from the bathroom have to use the air fresher. Okay for a short stay.

Excellent staff, very attentive and friendly, excellent conditions of the hotel and the room very nice. The best hotel highly recommended

Highly recommend for tourists who are interested in touring Aswan and Abu Simbel. This hotel has a nice location, and easy access to shopping and old souks.

Nice location for touring places in Aswan. Small room but very comfortable with everything you need available. Good value/cost ratio.

I did not stay in it. it is almost closed.

The room was dirty and lots of dust. Poor wifi - never able to connect. Location was ok - walkable to Aswan train station.

The staff was friendly and always ready to service. I would like to pay by card, but the staff insisted to pay by cash. The breakfast was modest but may be they have such standards. The room was clean but the curtain looked dusty. Water supplying worked normally. In general the hotel is not bad but I would rate it as a 1 or 2 star.

Loved the hospitality of Mr Mohammed and i believe the young guy on reception who was his son. They couldn't be more helpful.

Really great staff at this hotel. Some have limited English skills but that was fine. Hotel communication is pretty basic. The Internet was spotty at best but location is fantastic and it’s a great place to face one’s self while exploring this fantastic city.

Nice place nice people comfortable room

Nice simple Hotel safe and convenient!!

Staff were friendly and helpful. We had an early start and they prepared a great breakfast box. They were accomodating with a room change request. However the hotel is quite run down. There were some water pressure issues briefly and WiFi did not work in rooms. Windows provide no sound insulation if dogs barking nearby or call to prayer (otherwise neighborhood quiet at night). Good walking distance to souk and Nile. Overall was pricey for the condition but Aswan accommodation seemed expensive.

The manager is kind & reception/breakfast staff are very likeable & positive : a real asset to the hotel. Locations good, breakfast is plentiful and filling. I had WiFi issues/no WiFi for 2 days, however I was assured that this was not the fault of the hotel as it was a problem with the internet provider. When the WiFi did come back it was working great with no issues I had a fall inside the hotel on arrival, in which my shoulder was hurt, this was partly because I had come in from strong sunlight outside & my eyes had not adjusted ,but also the reception area is dimly lit & darkish and I did not see the step My room was ok, bed was just ok, had a fridge which was good, bathroom was average. Had water issues a few times, one time it did last the whole morning. Otherwise hot water for shower was good generally I noticed a few cold looks/stares over breakfast, this I worked out was over coffee (it’s an expensive commodity in Egypt, I’ve since found out, which I did not know at the time) they provide Nescafé sachets which don’t amount to much, so I would need 4 sachets for a decent mug of coffee, & obviously if I’m having more than 1 cup, you can do the maths. I thought I’m a paying guest, so they should not watch or find this annoying as made me feel uncomfortable. Had to stay extra beyond my original booking due to a mix up in my plans, they only offered me a €1.50 discount despite me not having WiFi for 2 whole days, that was not generous

Rats scurrying outside entrance. Cockroaches in the hall. Heavy smokers run/staff it. So very heavy smell of smoke. Rooms were on the low end of the budget scale. Not impressed at all.

Strong WIFI in the corridor not in the room. Very noisy AC. Also you can hear other room AC. Very loud. I did not sleep well. Hard working staff. Bad location

Convenient location close to Nile, the Souq, sites. Great staging area. Service was very good. Room all right but missing items like towels upon arrival. One morning, they prepared a take out breakfast box which was very nice. Thank you. Clean and basic bedroom but Lobby bathrooms could use service. Water pressure disappeared one evening and could only sponge bathe, not shower. Call to prayer speaker was really close and really loud; it was our daily wake up call at 430 or 500am. Bed all right but didn’t use pillows...they were very thick (perhaps 6-8”) and stiff.

Location was ok, stay was decent, not bad for budget stay

The staff was excellent they really helped us out to get around Aswan

Dirty hotel run down and old - dirty garbage dump Area .. have to use dark ally and broken stairs to get to hotel .. Ac works well tho ..
