02Overview
A first look
By late afternoon the palm-lined road into New Aswan feels quieter than the Nile Corniche, and the first thing you notice is the pool water and the soft hiss of the aqua-park slides. At Gloria Aqua Park your approach is across tiled paths toward a compact lobby and the front desk, where a reserved room key waits and a map points to pools and slides.
We arrange your reservation and book the Best Available Rate for the room type you choose, and our local team will confirm check-in details. Unlike larger Nile hotels, Gloria is built around family leisure and on-site waterslides, which suits travellers who want active daytime facilities rather than inner-city luxury.
Background
The facts
Gloria Aqua Park is a 4-star hotel in New Aswan, on the southern edge of Aswan city in Aswan Governorate. It is positioned away from the Nile Corniche area, making it a practical base for travelers who want road access and a quieter setting rather than a central riverside location.
The property offers room-only accommodation sold per room per night, with complimentary Wi-Fi, an outdoor pool, an on-site restaurant, and lobby bar facilities. An airport-shuttle service is listed among the hotel services, and basic front desk assistance and concierge support are available for check-in, check-out, and local arrangements.
New Aswan is a newer residential and service district compared with the older city center. From this part of Aswan, guests can reach the main urban sightseeing area by road, while still staying in a lower-cost hotel zone that is typically less busy than the central corniche districts.
Breakfast is not guaranteed unless a board basis is booked, so room type and meal plan should be checked at the time of reservation. The hotel is mainly suited to travelers who prioritize simple accommodation, pool access, and Wi-Fi over full-service resort features or central waterfront positioning.

Accessibility
Who can join this
The hotel has stepped access to the main lobby and several guest-room blocks, with stairs and some ramps between levels. Public areas include tiled floors, poolside paving, and a short flight of steps to the restaurant terrace; some corridors may be narrower than modern universal-access standards. Several ground-floor rooms are available on request, and we can arrange transfers and assistance at check-in. Please tell us about mobility needs before travel so we can advise which rooms suit you; independent mobility on historic streets in central Aswan is affected by cobbles and uneven surfaces beyond the hotel grounds.

Children & families
Minimum age for standard bookings is usually 2 years; infants under 2 often stay free in the same room, subject to cot availability. Child rates for older children vary by room occupancy and the hotel may charge an extra-bed supplement. Strollers are practical in many hotel areas but can be awkward on nearby streets with uneven paving. Request cots or high chairs at the time of booking so the hotel can reserve equipment.
