We had a wonderful stay at Kato Dool Wellness Resort! The staff were very kind and accommodating — they even allowed us to check out late because our flight was delayed, which we truly appreciated. The view from the top of the mountain is absolutely amazing, especially at sunrise overlooking the Nile river. Since the resort is located uphill, we had to take a tuktuk to go up and down to the village. The ride can be a bit bumpy and dusty, which some people might not enjoy, but it didn’t bother us at all and added a touch of adventure to the experience. Overall, it was a relaxing and memorable stay.

This hotel is heaven on earth! The staff is wonderful. The location has an amazing view. If you are looking gor an escape from crazy, busy tourist sites, this is it. Beautiful pool, gorgeous rooms, fantastic executive chef and staff. Everyone was so nice. Miss them all already. Kudos to all! Yes, like others have said, it's far from things. But honestly, not that far. The TukTuk ride up and down is very bumpy and shaky. I found it fun but others with health or physical issues will not manage well on them. I would suggest that the hotel get a van when they can budget for one.

This spot is lovely, staff are friendly & food is tasty. However, we would not stay again until they improve some of their issues. These include: 1. Communication: it was difficult to get responses before we arrived. Emails about excursions were not returned. The only time I got a response was in the WhatsApp chat although I had to send reminders so they would get back to me. Indeed, I sent through this feedback after our stay & never heard back. 2. No Wi-Fi connection: This was especially challenging because they only have a digital food menu that requires wifi to view it. 3. Timeliness in the restaurant: while the food was delicious once it arrived, it took far too long. We were told to be at the restaurant for dinner at 20:00. We arrived on time but we still hadn’t even received our drinks by 21:30. We waited 95 minutes for drinks and dinner and then we waited another 35 minutes for dessert. Most items on the menu were not available. 4. Bathroom facilities in our room: our bathroom flooded every time we used the shower so we had standing water on the floor the entire stay, which meant we had to walk through puddles of dirty water to use the sink or toilet. 5. The driver the hotel uses spent most of the time in the car distracted with phone calls & text messaging while driving. It felt unsafe. He also lectured us on the harms of alcohol when we asked him to stop somewhere so we (3 middle-aged adults) could purchase some beer to drink after a long, hot day.

Remote Aswan stay

Kato Dool is unique and charming but accessibility is challenging. Not recommended for a busy touring schedule. The spa was unexpectedly closed during our stay and that was disappointing.

Beatiful and aesthetic location. Great view of the river Nile and city of Aswan. The staff is super freiendly and helpful. Wonderful experience. Great location to take instagrammable pictures and videos. Only pain point - there was no WiFi, as their internet reception was being affected by wind. Need to invest in better infrastructure for connectivity services. But everything else was wonderful.

Property property design is amazing and the view is breathtaking. The only two concerns is it’s far away from downtown Aswan plus the roads to get to the hotel are in a very bad shape and taxi refuses to go there. Dogs in the area are very noisy and bark a lot. If it’s your first time in Aswan, I would recommend you staying in downtown.

Its a lovely & colorful property, managed by some great people. Its located a bit far from the village below, but the ride to the property is worth it once you arrive and see the place. Lovely views of the Nile there. Also if you walk up at sunset, you get lovely views of it in d sand dunes.

Kato Dool is beautiful place to stay in the Nubian village of Aswan. It is peaceful with a gorgeous view of the Nile Cataract/Desert and has well designed rooms in colorful Nubian style. The staff is very friendly and effective at what they do. The only consideration (good and bad, both) is that it is cut-off from everything else with a dusty and bumpy road (as of our visit) of over 10mins. from the busy parts of the Nubian village. For those who are not driving, like us, the hotel provides a tuk tuk transportation to and from from the main village. However, for the price of the rooms in the hotel, I hope the management provides a covered geep for this purpose as the tuk tuk is fun only once or twice. Overall, it is highly recommended for the views and authentic experience of staying in Nubian village with good amenities, especially if one is driving.

Kato Dool Resort delivers an unparalleled hospitality experience, setting a high standard in Aswan. From the moment we arrived, the staff's warm and welcoming demeanor ensured our comfort at every step, creating a genuinely inviting atmosphere. The resort itself is majestic, perched atop a mountain with breathtaking, panoramic views that capture the essence of Aswan's beauty. Every detail of our stay was meticulously arranged, from tours across Aswan and Gharb Soheil to seamless local transportation to the Nubian Village. This thoughtful planning allowed us to immerse ourselves fully in the region's rich history and culture without worry. Dining at the resort was a delight, with meals that showcased the authentic flavors of the region. Our room was another highlight, offering a stunning view that made each morning feel magical. The combination of luxurious accommodations and the serene surroundings makes this resort truly unique. Kato Dool Resort provides a complete experience that goes beyond expectations. Whether you're seeking ancient history, vibrant culture, delicious food, or authentic interactions with genuine people, this is the place to stay.

Property is nice, very traditional as the Nubian Community. Staff very respectful and kind. The property is remote in the middle of nowhere, far away from the city center or any other places, no vehicles can access it, from the transportation left you to the hotel you are jumping in a tuk-tuk for about 15-20 mins through a bad isolate, dark and full of hole road, after 9 pm you have to pay for that service as well. The service staff in the restaurant and facility are slow taking 30 mins from order the breakfast to service on the table (simple breakfast) a cappuccino with and omelet. The wifi is not available in all the rooms as listed in expedia, only accessible in the lobby and restaurant.

The place might be a bit in the middle of nowhere, but it is an absolute jewel. Incredibly well decorated, it is like no other hotel I have been. The staff was lovely and very accommodating, we arrived late because of a plane delay and they arranged a lovely meal for use despite the fact that the kitchen was closed.

Book this hotel immediately!

My biggest regret of our Egypt trip is that we only stayed here for one night! Kato Dool is everything and more that you see in the photos. The hotel is absolutely stunning, the service is impeccable, the breakfast and other meals were all absolutely delicious, and I don’t know how they managed to keep the pool cool in heat of the summer, but they did, and it was so refreshing! The hotel is situated on the West Bank, the quieter side and away from the city. Do note that it is quite a ride to get there, up a dirt road/hill and you have to get there by tuk-tuk (provided by the hotel), but it is absolutely worth it and the desert views along the way are beautiful. Don’t hesitate for even a moment - you must stay here while in Aswan, and make sure you book yourself an extra night to have a day to just relax by the pool and enjoy the views over the Nile!
