We checked into the Old Waterfall Hotel in July and were warmly received from the moment we entered. We stayed in a suite with a fantastic view. The facilities had a vintage feel. Special thanks to Marvel for her warm and attentive service. Her Chinese is excellent and she was always available to help with any questions we had.

The first time I came to Aswan, I chose the Old Cataract Hotel 🥰yassin was the housekeeper of our room. He upgraded the room type for us and took us to visit Agatha's room. It was very considerate to take a lot of photos🥰! If you have any questions, you can contact him. The service is very professional! 第一次来到阿斯旺选择了老瀑布酒店🥰yassin是我们房间的管家,给我们升级了房型还带着去参观了阿加莎的房间,帮忙拍了很多照片非常贴心🥰!无论有什么疑问都可以联系他,服务很专业!
