The hotel caused conflicting feelings, I will briefly describe the main points.
What did you like:
1) The food was tolerable. Not very diverse, but passable. There were very tasty juices at breakfast.
2) The hotel is almost on the beach. There is an elevated passage with an elevator to the sea.
3) There are several pools of different depths on the territory, there are sun beds around, there was always enough.
4) The hotel has a free gym.
5) The room had air conditioning and lots of towels.
What didn't you like:
1) Too (!) intrusive staff, ranging from porters to clinicians. You can't lie down on the beach at all, 5 people come up in an hour (massage, hairdressers, hammam).
2) Wi-Fi is extremely unstable and did not catch in the rooms.
3) There was a broken kettle in the room. The problem was solved only once from the fifth and the next day, when he openly began to swear at them.
4) The room had a dirty floor. It was enough to take only a few steps, and the heels were already turning black, as if walking barefoot on the street.
5) The room had a rather small window with a view of the construction site. Also, on the first day, the bathroom smelled strongly of sewage.
I am generally not a very picky person, but I would hardly return to the hotel a second time. The listed disadvantages greatly outweigh the advantages, and the attitude of the staff towards you as a money bag completely spoils the final impression
We had a vacation with our daughter in August 2023, we were absolutely satisfied, although there were small nuances, but over time, memories replaced these little things.We are from Siberia, so we have plenty of forests, fields, etc. and houses.We went to the desert!The sea is divine, without wind, with a sandy sunset, there are always sun beds.I am glad, by the way, that they are wooden, and not flimsy plastic.Initially, we considered only a city hotel with the opportunity to enjoy the local flavor, wander around the city, walk around the Marina, shop around, after all (girls after all).PEOPLE! If you want to be smiled at, smile, be polite and kind.These are oriental traditions.You came to visit, not to you, and it's probably not worth setting your own rules, especially rudely.The hotel staff is very polite, friendly, the cook is a great professional - all the dishes were cooked perfectly.By the way, there were many national dishes, I recommend it!During our vacation, no one fainted from hunger, all the tourists were happy.Special thanks to the staff of the local travel agency Mahmoud, Maxim and diving instructor Yasha-you are the best!!!Read the reviews in advance, do not believe, by the way, some negative ones - these are probably inflated expectations.Be realistic, a small city hotel is not designed for all your "wishes", relax with pleasure!
Marina and Katrina have already taken a tour for the beginning of August, we are counting the days until the meeting.
The worst hotel in my life. I have already changed 3 rooms during this trip, and this is not the limit. The first room I was checked into had a broken window that wouldn't open at all. And the one who showed it thought that this was normal. Not well, but cho: there is an air conditioner. Alternatively, I was also shown a room with a view of a wall hung with air conditioners.
I was given the second room for an additional 20 bucks. He was on the second floor right next to the bridge that leads to the beach. That is, right above the London Bridge restaurant, with a balcony overlooking the Sheraton. And this means that you will sleep to the sound track of the fun of this restaurant with music, a huge TV standing on the street and broadcasting at full volume, for example, a football match, and noisy companies until 6 am, as well as to the rumble of trucks passing under the windows and taxi drivers forever honking. Never take rooms with windows on the Sheraton! Although these rooms are rented as deluxe, because you can see the sea from there.
The third room had a balcony overlooking the neighboring courtyard. But there the workers knock until 6-7 pm, and all day and night the air conditioners or some other devices are working noisily. They turn on and off. It's like being in a factory floor! But I no longer have the strength to go to change rooms ...
Another minus: very harsh people at the reception.
One of the advantages: one of the best beaches in Hurghada. Access to the beach from the hotel building is via a bridge over the road and an elevator system.
You can dive from the piers. But the beach is closed at 6 p.m. sharp. I dozed off, so they just pulled a towel out from under me with the words: "Close, friend." It is difficult to imagine a more rude treatment.
It is unclear why the beach should be closed at all, when you can simply not allow swimming!?You can have a great time on the beach in the evening... They would put a guard on the beach, and everyone would enjoy the night sea.
There is no animation on the beach. Sometimes they give out a volleyball ball (there is a playground). There are a lot of sun beds, there are never any problems with places. Again, the beach workers handing out towels are always sour-faced and obviously allergic to people.
I can say good words about the restaurant and its administrator, who is always ready to solve any problem. He and the waiters are always friendly, they clean everything very quickly.
And the cleaning boys are wonderful: they clean cleanly, they are always friendly.
The rooms themselves are not bad, spacious, both standard and deluxe have kettles, hair dryer, tea, sugar, coffee. There are safes in the deluxe rooms.
