Anakob is a Nubian word, which translates to my boat in Fajiki language. The project was initiated in 2018 and started operating in 2019. Anakob is a two-story boat located in Aswan, Egypt in the heart of the Nile River and it is the first ever-floating boutique hotel.
Having only two partners and one of them is a local Nubian to ensure that the true essence of the Nubian culture is captured and reflected in a trendy yet modern setup. It was located and designed with the breathtaking view of the Nile River in mind. All bedrooms and shared public spaces have a panoramic view that will forever be engraved in our guests’ memories.
