The Sofitel Legend Old Cataract Aswan was a highlight experience during our 2 week vacation in Jordan and Egypt. The hotel lives up to its historic name, bringing a level of elegance deserving of 5-star any where in the world.

This hotel was simply amazing! The value that you get for the price you paid was amazing. We have stayed at Ritz Carlton’s and other 5 star hotels that lacked the charm, incredible service, and hospitality that this hotel had. Everyone was extremely nice and hospitable. We felt welcomed and the staff treated us like family. The food at the hotel restaurant was some of the best that we’ve ever had as well. This was the perfect place for us to celebrate our 5th year wedding anniversary! We look forward to coming back again!

It was like living in a picture postcard for a little while. This is the best hotel in Aswan (and for very good reason too)! We will definitely go back again given a chance (and stay for longer period of time!)

Luxury and history

Customer review rating 4.5/5

My husband and I had a Wonderfull time at the Old Cataract. It had always been a dream of mine to once stay there. We love the building and it's history and the professional and warm and friendly staff. All good, no complains just some remarks. -It's such a pity that there is a newer part of the hotel. It is totally not in line with the 'Old Cataract' and it lacks grandeur and style. Some of the palm trees became so tall that they block the beautiful view on the Nile and Elephantine Island if you are sitting on the terras. Unfortunately the swimming pool was closed and there was some construction work going on. We understand that the Covid pandemic must have hit hard on the business and we wish everybody all the best and hope to be back once day. Inshallah. Inge T. & Arent van Sminia
