Friendly and relaxing, and offering good value for money, the Basma Hotel is situated on the highest hill with commanding views of the River Nile and the city of Aswan. The interiors of the hotel are of a tradition Egyptian design, with a collection of contemporary Egyptian artwork, displayed throughout.

All the guest rooms and suites are comfortably furnished with balconies and are set amongst well established Mediterranean style gardens.

The dining is satisfyingly International and Egyptian with buffet style or a la carte throughout the day. Lots of interesting excursions are available. Why not sail on a felucca, a traditional Egyptian sale boat to the Botanical Gardens or visit the local Souk (Market) for a bargain. Don’t forget to barter!
