Sofitel Legend Old Cataract Aswan 5 stars

we were a guest at the Old Cataract for two nights and those were not enough we wish we could stay longer. Our room was impressive our host was Marvel who has the warmest hospitality and her service in the best she was always checking in us where ever we are and ask if we need any help and we joined her Tour which was so much interesting and she was brilliant.

We would like to announce about this incredible spot in Egypt, this is the best hotel in town, service is beyond expectations staff are wonderful specially Marvel who managed a tour with more than 20 guests in Chinese and she was able to answer all the questions and we all had so much fun! Make sure to ask for Marvel.

We did not stay overnight at the hotel. We visited one afternoon while we waited to go the airport to catch a flight back to Cairo. So this review is just for the bar and the restaurant and the hospitality. All of which were top notch! The hotel is a beautiful, historical place ... you feel as if you are stepping back in time ... we had drinks at the bar first (the cocktails were pretty expensive, I have to say, but I just had one, for the experience. Beer and wine was much, much, cheaper). We then went to the restaurant for lunch. Fabulous food -- really fabulous! Most of us ordered traditional Middle Eastern food. It was all so good and not expensive at all (to a Westerner). We sat for a good hour and a half, laughing and enjoying ourselves. The service was impeccable. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. We then hung out for a while in the library, which is again, like going back in time. I speed read a novel from the early 20th century (1904, maybe?), a romantic story about a young man from Maine who falls in love with a senator's daughter and then, after many intervening subplots involving the Civil War, finally gets together with her. I love finding stuff like that in libraries. Overall, it was just a fabulous experience. Highly recommend.

We had high tea with our tour group. The tea was very nice and we watched the sunset from the terrace. After, Moh allowed us to take a peek into the Agatha Christie suite. It was amazing! It was definitely a once in a lifetime experience considering the cost of actually staying in the suite.
