«ИНТУРИСТ держал нас всех в заложниках в автобусе! “INTOURIST held us all hostage on the bus!

Good afternoon everyone! We rested in this "wonderful" hotel in April 2009, there were no vouchers from TEZA, unfortunately, and for the first time we flew from INTOURIST! There were 9 of us, we were completely set on a positive holiday, and therefore all the bitter delights of our holiday were perceived not with hostility, but with humor (there is something to remember now), that's why our holiday was a success anyway !!!!!!!!
The departure was transaero, there were no problems, but on arrival they began.
We sat on the bus for a very long time, everyone had already left, people were collected on our bus from all flights to the Ali Baba, Aladdin and Jasmine hotels.
On the way to the hotels, the guide, as always, talked about the country, and casually said: "And now we are all going to the Titanic, and this is not discussed. "

We expected that this was a joke, but Alas ((((! The guide said that the hotels are overcrowded, and the owner of these hotels is the only one, he has the right to check us in any free one. What started here....Everyone began to call their tour operators, I was personally told that this cannot be, and in general, in theory, if something like this happens, then instead of a booked hotel, they should offer the best option, as compensation, but not the worst. they take him across the road, they take him to the sea by bus, he stands alone in the desert, there is almost no greenery, the territory is small, no one wanted to go there of course !! ! does not work, they turned off the air conditioner, put the bus in the sun, and left with the driver!!!!!
The rest time ran (((( So 2.5 hours passed, someone already wanted to give up....Our men began to run amok.
I don’t know what happened, maybe they really started to take measures here in Moscow, the guide came and said that those who went to Ali Baba can go there, and the rest to the Titanic, since Jasmine and Aladdin hotels are of the same star rating as Titanic.
We went ourselves with suitcases to the reception, settled us with dissatisfied faces, I can’t call it otherwise, sorry!
Settled in the most remote part, but we already did not care!
The room was ok (See video), the grounds of the hotel are wonderful, we could use the grounds of all the hotels. It’s better to go to the beach at the Jasmine Hotel, there is sand, in Ali Baba there are stones, but everything is so close there, no matter what.
The food was terrible, the first time I saw this in Egypt. There were practically no desserts at all, no fruit either. 2-3 side dishes, vegetables are not at their best, rash, chicken always, meat rarely, fish even less often. Those. no choice, to eat you had to eat what they give.
There are 3 restaurants there, but everything is the same everywhere, queues in front of the doors to enter... There are not enough dishes anywhere, it looked like a struggle for food ((((There were no alcoholic drinks in the restaurant itself for free, in theory the waiters should be asked and brought drinks, which of course was not, only 2-3 times we managed to order them and wait !!!! ! HORROR !!! ! a couple of times there were problems with the stomach, I think that because of poorly washed dishes.
There was a bar in the lobby, plus there were coffee machines, that was a delicious addition: cappuccino, latte, etc. , the minus is that they don’t give more than a glass in hand! In these 3 hotels you can go to eat in others, you just need to take a ticket, we didn’t go to those, if it’s so bad with us, what do they have, hotels of a lower star rating ??

The pool had donuts and pancakes at noon, but to taste them, you have to stand in line for 15-20 minutes, and they don’t give much, so that the company can eat, everyone has to stand in line.
The animation is rather weak, there is no disco in Ali Baba, weaving like indoors, we went to Pergola and always!
We didn’t want to have any more business with the foreign tourist, but we wanted to go on excursions, but now they have a rule there that you can only buy from your tour operator! They approached Tezu, but they refused us, later our Intourist ran up, apparently they already informed him, and since we are an enviable, big company, I didn’t want to lose money.
But we gently told him that after such a reception and accommodation with Intourist, on principle, we would not eat.
Somehow they bought from Corel, they left the money in the room and found vouchers there, as in intelligence directly !!!
We went on a boat trip in the east, we liked it very much. They were taken on a yacht, swam in the sea with masks and flippers, were on Paradise Island. This is better than just a ticket to Paradise Island, they bring it there and leave it for the whole day under the scorching sun!
Wild cats, lizards and ants ran around on the territory, our room was on the 1st floor, a lizard crawled from somewhere incomprehensibly, it had a mink somewhere, I didn’t leave the door open, because I’m afraid of them!
Here we had such a rest, if you have any questions, write.
I do not recommend this hotel to anyone!
