I rested at the end of April 2024. I arrived at the start of dinner and were seated immediately. They demanded an additional payment of $20 for a good room (some even demanded $25), I refused to pay extra. We were accommodated in a normal room. The hotel is lightly loaded with tourists (this is at the end of April, then it may be different, which is why there are many advantages: there are practically no queues in the dining room or at the bar, there are always plenty of places near the reception, where there is free Internet of more or less normal quality, since there are no guests There is not much.

They offer to clean the room every day, but I put up a sign so as not to be disturbed. There are two bars of soap in the room (no liquid soap), towels, toilet paper, no hairdryer, you need to ask at the reception if you run out of soap and toilet paper. then ask and they give you more.
The balcony door was broken, but it didn’t bother me, I managed to lock it before leaving, although there was a small gap left, at night there was additional noise through it (Mulla would wake up around 3-4 o’clock), so earplugs came in handy. Tourists didn’t talk about cases of theft in their rooms; everything seemed to be fine. The room is a little tired, but normal for living, there is a flat-screen TV with two Russian channels (the sound is good, the video is small, but in the other room they said that they showed everything fine). Every day they give a 600 ml bottle of water. per person. Tap water should not be drunk. The door is locked with a key, not a card. The hotel was formerly called Triton. 6 floors, several buildings. Egyptians swam in the pool only once, the slides work if you ask to turn them on, but no one swam there, they didn’t filter the water in it at all. The bathrooms have a window, apparently for ventilation, but someone could get into the room through it.
The staff does not know Russian, some understand, but with difficulty.
The food is ok: meat, fish, cucumbers, tomatoes, cakes. Fruits, berries: oranges, grapefruits, tangerines are very tasty, melon, dates are fresh, not dry, once there was watermelon, guava (but the season for it has passed, so there are leftovers). Drinks: tea (three or four types in bags), coffee, coffee with milk, supposedly juices (like Jupi), cola, sprite, Fanta, water. Alcohol: beer, whiskey, brandy, tequila, rum, gin, vodka, cocktail. There is no wine, only for an additional fee. There is a bar on the beach, you can use it, despite the fact that it is another hotel, the hotel does not have its own beach, but the hotel owner is the same. The cats in the dining room are very annoying, but they don’t jump on the tables.
There is animation at 20.00, about an hour, less. There is one on the beach too. Be careful with them: they are pranking you, they take $5 from you on the beach, give you a ticket, and you will receive a gift that costs $1. There's really no draw.
They call your ticket number, you go off stage and in fact they give you a gift whatever the presenter wants. On the last day before the flight of one tourist, these animators wanted to deceive her, when they found out that she was flying away, they asked her to change $5 (even without taking these $5 in her hands, it’s clear that something is completely wrong with them)
The beach is 5 minutes walk. There were always enough sun loungers on the beach, but in fact people from three hotels sometimes gather there. During the season it may be crowded. It can be windy on the beach if something is wrong with the weather. Once it was cloudy all day and a few drops of rain fell. Beach: sand made up of small, small pebbles. There were people who had been coming specifically to these hotels for many years.
The hotel is located almost on the outskirts of the city, but not in the middle of nowhere. Market: leaving the hotel and turning right you will reach an intersection, turn left, go to the end and turn right.
If you are not picky and consider that the hotel is 3 stars, then it’s fine.
I talked to people not from these hotels, but in another hotel, cooler, people at 5 am took places on sun loungers on the beach.
You can go to Luxor. I’ll warn you right away that it takes more than 6 hours to travel one way by bus, although all travel agencies tell you that it’s 4 hours. They promise a super-duper comfortable bus, but in fact you almost got a minibus, it depends on your luck, it doesn’t depend on where you bought, they unite everyone from different places. Luxor costs $45-$50 on the street from more or less greedy travel agencies. If you take the Valley of the Queens - then 45 $, if from the kings - then 50 $ (entrance tickets cost differently, the rest of the program is the same. I liked Karnak and the Temple of Hatshepsut, but in the tombs of the kings there is nothing special to see, “everything was stolen, before us “It seems that many of the drawings on the walls were probably restored by local artists. You can only enter three tombs with a ticket; they punch you in the ticket everywhere. I recommend Ramses the 4th and the farthest one.
In the deepest one, which is on the right in the far corner, there is nothing to see, but for some reason this is where guides most often advise going. They offer an additional $10 to go to banana island, where you will see how bananas grow and eat fruit. If you refuse, the guide will try to catch you later and offer you on the sly for $7. A local told me that there is no point in going there, and neither does a friend, so you can just do it for 1 hour 20 minutes. relax on the bus. It’s definitely not worth buying anything from hotel guides; it can be more than twice as expensive. I bought a bathyscaphe on the street for $10, and the hotel guide offered the same for $25. His Luxor cost $70. Those who wrote here before and advised to contact Sanka, either don’t know the prices at all, except by comparing with a hotel guide, or lobby this Sanka, he’s also a cunning one.
Don't rush to buy right away, take a walk. Bargain with everyone. In stores they can say the price is 5 times more expensive for the product

Summer in Egypt 2 troubles: . . You know why there are no fresh reviews about the hotel: there are almost no our tourists there now, two hundred local Arabs are resting there: it’s true that their level of well-being has grown much more than ours, and most see the sea and hotels for the first time. The sight is not for the faint of heart, how an average Arab family eats: a couple of wives, something stuffed under the veil, a dozen children eat with their hands and run around the table, and the food is scattered for several meters around.

Summer in Egypt 2 troubles: . .
You know why there are no fresh reviews about the hotel: there are almost no our tourists there now, two hundred local Arabs are resting there: it’s true that their level of well-being has grown much more than ours, and most see the sea and hotels for the first time. The sight is not for the faint of heart, how an average Arab family eats: a couple of wives, something stuffed under the veil, a dozen children eat with their hands and run around the table, and the food is scattered for several meters around. About what's going on in public toilets . . it's not decent to write.
The hotel is a large stone well building around the perimeter with a small pool inside, so it's hot there in the evening. The rooms are good: spacious, bright and everything worked, except that the air conditioners are noisy, there is no hair dryer.
There is no territory as such. But the hotel has a bungalow on the territory common with Royal Beach on line 1 (200 meters down the street), which you can use: there is a restaurant, bars and pools that you can use freely.
In principle, everything is convenient: breakfast and dinner in the main building (in a small restaurant separate from the Arabs, not from everyone, for dinner it’s decent to eat fish, chicken and meat, with fruits and sweets - it’s scarce), and lunch on the sea, where you can spend all day.
There is a terrace where pizza and burgers are prepared during the day, if you are not at all "mogota" to eat with Arabs. But you still can’t get away from them, the queues at the bars: they drink tons of sweet drinks in droves, they don’t climb out of the pools and the sea. 90% do not know how to swim, so they spend the whole day on the beach and the pool, with circles and vests.
The beach of the hotel is 20 meters between the breakwaters, sandy, but it is good to swim from the breakwaters and you can dive.
The sea is wonderful: clean, warm, more than once dolphins swam in 5 meters, and 1 time a 2-meter Manta was under me.
P. S. for 20 thousand UAH for 2 people in 2 weeks it’s tolerable, but it’s better not to go here in July-August, I’ll do it there in the future.

This hotel is good because many foreigners rest in it, convenient location, friendly staff, at the reception they didn’t give a normal room the first time, but on the second they got the keys to the tired room. The room is large, but the furniture is old, and the bathroom is generally sad, the toilet was leaking, and the taps were buzzing, the gray dirty curtain looked gloomy, the pillows were thin like sheets, the air conditioner was a healthy colossus of the 80s blowing dust, the towel was always gray, it doesn’t matter new or old, but they probably didn't change it.

I was pleased with the free safe, 300 meters from the sea, the food is monotonous, but you can eat, everyone will find 1-2 dishes for themselves in the evening, potatoes, meat, fish, scrambled eggs, fruits, melon, watermelon, oranges, good beer. The price is not quite justified for the money.

Dear, I do not know who wrote these reviews, but it's total nonsense, the hotel is old and very dirty, in the dining room (restaurant can not be called it), it probably never washed, I will not troll this hotel, cheap fish-bad soup, but it is not worth even half of that money. The only thing that pleased and vacation, it's the sea, really huge corals and a wild underwater world, I will not go to this hotel anymore (even if I was paid extra for it), and the choice is yours.

The decision to travel arose spontaneously, because I saw an offer to this hotel for all inclusive 7 nights for 2 for $ 500. They didn't regret it. The hotel is very well located. Yes, not the first line, but the beach of the hotel of its own network is only a 5-minute leisurely walk. But in 20 min. walk to the central vegetable market of the old city, where you can take a taxi from other hotels.

It was here that I met a sticky fish, which obviously attached itself to me.
In general, a hotel for unpretentious tourists. We were satisfied.

I would like to tell you about my wonderful stay at The Three Corners Triton Empire 3*
Before the trip, I thought for a long time where to go, which hotel to choose, I read a lot of reviews.
So, I arrived in the late afternoon. I was greeted warmly at the airport, brought to the hotel and offered dinner. Check-in was very fast, no additional costs were required. This was a pleasant surprise, because in the reviews they wrote that they do not settle without a tip.
The room they gave me was very nice, comfortable, quiet. Everything in it worked properly, the furniture is not new, but well-groomed. It was always clean, there was no dust, the mini-bar was replenished regularly with water (about 7 liters per day, if there were few more). Cleaning was carried out very efficiently and daily: dust was wiped everywhere, bed linen and towels were changed, the floor was also washed.
The hotel staff is very friendly: they helped to use the ATM, clarified how the rest is going, whether you need something, any issues were resolved very quickly. There were no conflicts.
There is a lot to be said about nutrition. In my case, it’s easier to say that I didn’t eat than to list all the delicacies I ate))) There are a lot of meat and fish dishes of various preparations. There were always several side dishes to choose from, gorgeous vegetables both fresh and grilled. Fresh fruits, various desserts and cakes. In terms of nutrition, this hotel postponed my diet for a couple of weeks, it was simply impossible to resist this paradise for the sweet tooth))) I can say very little about alcohol, because I only drink wine and champagne. Of course, I'm not a great gourmet of these drinks, but everything suited me!!!!
The sea from the hotel was very close (5-7 minutes walk). The beach is good, there were enough sunbeds, towels were given out, drinks were brought from the bar. A young couple was resting next to me, I dived with them in a mask. Under water, the beauty is beyond words... corals, sea urchins, a bunch of all sorts of fish, stingrays. So lovers of the underwater world will not pass by.
Animation has always invigorated my holiday, the guys are great fellows! There was always dancing and entertainment. I was especially surprised that the animator girls were from Ukraine and we understood each other. Unfortunately, I paid attention to only one excursion. Went scuba diving. Emotions cannot be conveyed, both from the pleasure received and from the sparing cost. This guide is not only a very pleasant person, but also an experienced guide, who gave a masterful briefing and showed all the delights of the underwater world))) In general, I am very pleased with my trip. Recomend for everybody!! !

The overall impression is generally good. My husband and I were at the end of May, it was already hot during the day. Everyone rests during the day, and the movement begins in the late afternoon, when the heat subsides. Animators organize various entertainment during the day. The rooms are different, at first we were given a bad room, but for a fee you can change to another one.

The service is normal, especially for girls, the gardener always gave me flowers, the chefs personally brought sweets, a lot of attention. The beach is constantly cleaned, we were even lucky, they brought a camel on which we could ride. There was nothing special in our room, I will not write. There are souvenir shops on the territory, the prices are normal, compared with those in the city.
On the beach, if you pay someone who cleans there, he will book a place closer to the sea and even on an ongoing basis. The entertainment program leaves much to be desired, something similar to amateur performances.

we really liked everything, I didn’t expect such a service from a three-ruble note in Egypt. We even washed the floors in the room, they took a tip only on the 6th day of rest, although they left it from the first day. The food was wonderful, vegetables, salads, different, but it’s better not to take sausage and sausages , all from soybeans, we took it once, but it’s impossible to eat.

The hotel is located on the 2nd line, walk to the beach for 5-7 minutes, the beach is equipped with everything, sunbeds, mattresses, towels are given out, the local population is very located, but bargaining is appropriate, prices are reduced by 30-50%, MY SISTER AND I LIKE IT VERY MUCH, WILL COME AGAIN TO THE SAME HOTEL, we didn’t see any discrimination between Russians and foreigners, the attitude is the same, that to us, that to the Germans, the British and the French, who we lived dreams in a hotel, the first days it was hot, but for the last 3 days a strong wind blew, it was impossible to be on the beach, from which we concluded, we must go before November 10, so if anyone decides to go there, write in a personal

Hello! rested with my husband at the triton empire resort . . the hotel is small but cozy enough, our room was large with a view of the pool and the street... it was a bit noisy from the street, but in fact that we came tired, we had everything anyway... I don’t know how it is in other 3 * hotels, but here hair dryers were given out for 1 hour at the reception and ironing things had to be given to the laundry for money.

So, back to Hurghada. Triron Empier Hotel. I read a lot of reviews before going. It seems to me that this is one of the most popular "three rubles" in Hurghada. The hotel was selected on the principle of price-quality. Expectations justified themselves. Everything that is written in positive reviews is pure truth! The hotel is located in the Dahar area, on the second line from the sea.

The hotel was selected on the principle of price-quality. Expectations justified themselves. Everything that is written in positive reviews is pure truth! The hotel is located in the Dahar area, on the second line from the sea. On the first is the Triron Empier Beach hotel. There is also the Triron Inn. But this is a very small hotel, the guests of which eat mainly in the restaurant "Triron Empier Hotel". Comparing the Beach and the Hotel, according to the reviews of the residents, it can be noted that the Hotel rooms are newer and more spacious, although there is a minus in the distance from the beach. Meals in the main restaurant. The food is very high quality, varied, every day - some kind of national cuisine. This can be seen from the napkins with national flags on the tables. True, there was no Russian cuisine. -))) I can’t say anything about dinners, because I took half board. But breakfasts and dinners are beyond praise. Yes, I heard complaints from some of our compatriots of immense dimensions about the monotony in food. But. . . after looking at the amount of food they collected at a time, everything became clear-)))). -150, which have already been purchased at home.
So breakfast. Omelet, pancakes that are fried right in front of you, vegetables, some hot local dishes such as beans, a large number of buns, yoghurts, jams, cheese, feta cheese (very tasty !!! ), sausage (disgusting as everywhere in Turkey and in Egypt), tea, coffee, juices (diluted packaged), but this is just a "three-ruble note". It is not allowed to take food out of the restaurant, as elsewhere. But for a Russian person, nothing is impossible. I watched a picture of how one elderly lady from Russia put buns from breakfast in her immense bag, fearing that she would simply not make it until 18 o’clock without them and would die of hunger. And then a terrible headline would appear in the newspapers: “The starvation of a Russian one of the hotels in Hurghada "-)))) Yes, no one stopped her at the exit, but you should have seen the eyes of a German who was sitting at the next table and looking at all this-)))) He probably remembered 1941-))) )
Dinner. Soups mashed (for an amateur, but who tried it, then they always took them), always chicken, meat (beef, lamb), very tasty fish, side dishes - rice, pasta, potatoes, lasagna, vegetables, fruits (dates, bananas, oranges, grapefruits, melons) Delicious pastries - cakes, pastries, soufflé s. Yes, drinks at dinner for those who are on half board are paid. Therefore, it’s better to either bring water with you, or (as many of our tourists did), “snack” tea bags from breakfast, and top up boiling water for dinner (it’s free). I can’t say anything about alcoholic drinks, but those who was "all inclusive" did not complain. In any case, the beer was praised-)))) In short, the food in this hotel is up to the mark and, in my opinion, is no worse than in hotels of a higher category.
The rooms are very large, everything works, there were no problems with either water or plumbing. The hotel is 6-storey, more than 400 rooms in total, they are cleaned well, all depending on the tips left.
The beach is large enough, although for three hotels, it may be small. But you could always find sun loungers on the pier, the main thing is not to sleep until 12 o'clock, but try to come a little -))) early. Towels are issued on the beach using hotel cards, which must be cherished like the apple of an eye, because for their loss you will have to pay something around 10 euros-((((There is animation on the beach, in all its manifestations, from water aerobics to belly dancing. In the evening, there is live music in the hotel lobby, when the evenings became warm, the musicians moved to the pool.
From the hotel to the beach you need to go along a small street where shops are located and, like everywhere else in Egypt, well, oh-so-very annoying sellers. However, over time (after 3-4 days), they will get used to you and will no longer rush out shouting: “Hello, friend! I just returned from Moscow (Kemerovo, Rostov, Krasnodar), my mom and dad are there, etc. d. " Therefore, the acquisition of an even tan is the most effective means of protection against such harassment. And the second is to walk on the opposite side of the street with a businesslike look, as if you are not interested in anything else besides the beach and the sun-)))) Although there are a couple of very charming sellers on this street, for example, Christian Misha. His shop "St. George" is always open, a hospitable owner and will talk (he speaks a little Russian), and treat you with tea, and sell cheap souvenirs-)))) So, who will be in those places, say hello from Natalia from Russia . Like many merchants, he has a treasured notebook where he collects reviews from tourists and is very proud of it-)))) By the way, it is well known that all Egyptians are very fond of our milk chocolate "Alenka". So if you decide to buy something and bargain profitably, you won’t find a better reason to start bargaining. In general, prices in souvenir shops in Dahar are somewhat lower than in the city center at Sharaton or in tourist areas. The most important thing is to bargain successfully. This is a kind of sport for both the tourist and the seller. We divide the seller's price by 2 and start bargaining from this amount. The only thing that is unacceptable according to the rules of the game - if you have reached the desired price - you cannot refuse to buy and leave, this is almost a blood offense.
About excursions. Since I am in Egypt for the 7th time, I only took an excursion to El Gouna. Everything was great, only unlike previous trips there, for some reason we missed visiting the aquarium. My friends took Luxor, and not from a tour operator, but from a street travel agency (on the same street on the way to the beach). And they were very satisfied. The price is almost two times lower, but there is no difference-))) The same Russian-speaking guide, the same bus, the same restaurant as for those who took with an overpayment from their tour operator. In fact, the meeting with the hotel guide from Pegasus made a very unpleasant impression. This was probably the only negative from this trip to Hurghada. After some tourists refused to buy excursions from her (all had different reasons), she abruptly lost all interest in them, and even when there were problems with the hotel staff, she pretended that she was not interested at all. I’m not talking about myself, since I freely solved all problems with my English, but my compatriots who did not speak foreign languages had to help more than once, and here the behavior of the hotel guide was beyond criticism. And her story about poor tourists from Kemerovo, who (didn’t listen to her, an experienced guide) either they lost, or they stole documents and money from them in some shop, and now they live for 4 (!!!! ) months, unhappy, somewhere in the slums, starving, waiting, when will they get new documents-)))) and they will be able to fly to their homeland. In general, children do not go to Africa for a walk!
As for the situation in Hurghada. Yes, probably a year or two ago the situation was more calm. Cases of deception by taxi drivers have become more frequent, as far as I know, there have even been attacks by taxi drivers on tourists. Yes, there used to be a tourist police who strictly monitored the safety of tourists, this "sacred cow", at present the situation has changed a little for the worse. Here you can advise only one thing - when getting into a taxi, defiantly write down the phone number that is on the driver's window under the heading "For a complaint. " Ideally, I would also write down the number of the car, but here you need to at least know a little Arabic writing, and this is not given to everyone-)))) By the way, this would be very useful to me when the taxi driver "threw" me, showing instead of my 20 pounds , which I gave for travel, 20 piastres (something like our 20 kopecks only with paper money) Whoever saw the game of "thimbles" will understand everything. I had to give another 20 pounds, but when he once again tried to turn the same trick, I went berserk, remembered all the obscene words in three languages, began to shout "Police", after which he got scared and left. And this is where knowledge of Arabic writing would be very useful to me-))) But... we learn from mistakes, well, if from strangers... So learn from mine, dear readers of this review! And be vigilant! Although, in my opinion, the residents of Russian cities who have seen or at least heard about our Russian "night showdowns", Hurghada will seem like a quiet peaceful village.
Good luck to all!
