Nice hotel located on its own island ( yes, it has its own island! ). Picturesque scenery from the balcony. Only thing that bugged me was the souvenir shop owners that kept bugging me to buy their merchandise.
As an annual visitor to Egypt (30 trips since 1980, I am often asked about my 'favorites'..hotels, tours, restaurants. In Aswan, my favorite hotel is the Pyramisa LTI Isis Island resort. Located on its own Island, in the Middle of the Nile, it offers a welcome respite from the hustle and bustle of Cairo and Luxor. Magnificently landscaped ...

great value for money

Spacious hotel rurrounded by gardens. Well kept. Friendly and competent staff. Swimming pools. However: there are 2 kinds of rooms, the Nile View rooms and the main building rooms. Nile View entitles you to a small garden and terrace, and a more spacious room. The regular rooms may be less nice. Be wise and pay the small Nile View supplement to ensure a great stay.

isis island is awful
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/13/06
this hotel looked wonderful, what a disappointment when we got there. the paint was falling off the walls, there was lots of rules about what you can and can't do. the staff were unhelpfull, only one pool was open and it wasn't very clean. the food was awful, luckly we were able to go to another hotel, if this didn't happen it would have been the worst holiday ever.

I loved the music played by the Nubian band.
Romantic location for the hotel to be situated.
The staff were very efficient and provided excellent service.
There was nothing I disliked about the place.

Lovely at Isis Island

The Isis Island hotel is on an island in the Nile. There is a continuous ferry service from the hotel. I have much appreciated this ferry service. It just was adding some charm.
The Isis Island is located very nicely. It is directly opposite the Old Cataract. On one side is the city of Asswan and on the other side directly the desert.
If you ...

Isis Island Hotel
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/17/05
This is a very cheap looking place. They do not have hair dryers in the rooms, unlike other hotels in the same category. they also only offer instant coffee at breakfast! The food was poorly cooked and tasteless ... again, unlike the food prepared by other hotels, like Elephantine Island resort hotel. This hotel could not compete with a poor Motel 6.
