The hotel is good, don't listen to nonsense.
At first I thought that such negative words were written by abnormal people or those who spent their whole lives relaxing at the Hilton, but they enlightened me - these are competitors “trying”.
This is not the first time in Egypt, so my review will be objective.

HOTEL: Located on the beach, from the airport to go 20 minutes, to the center of Hurghada the same amount. There are 2 buildings, one of which is located across the road from the main one (and, accordingly, from the sea). Pay extra, and you will be accommodated in the main one, but it was good for us and across the road - quiet, calm. And near the main disco until night and most likely noisy.


The rooms are beautiful, large, ALL overlook the sea or the pool. A photo of the room is attached. In the room: air conditioning, free safe, TV, large wardrobe, table and two chairs, bedside tables, refrigerator. Everything is as it should be, everything is new and beautiful, there are no cockroaches, no bedbugs.
The safe broke - they called the receptionist, they came, they fixed it, we did not give money.
Cleaning is good.
The hotel itself is non-smoking, which will please nicotine fighters.
The hotel is very beautiful, there is a place to take a photo, a lot of pools (10 pieces) of different depths.
Many foreigners, few cattle. This makes me happy.

FOOD: For breakfast, buns (a lot, and everything is delicious), milk porridge for children, pancakes with jam, scrambled eggs, boiled eggs, cereal. The choice is very large, everything is delicious, there are no queues, because breakfast runs from 7 to 10, and everyone comes at different times, and some even sleep until dinner.
I was impressed by the coffee - real, brewed. Here's what I didn't expect.

For lunch and dinner, there was always meat, always different - chicken, turkey, veal. Lots of different fish, squid, crabs. From fruits - delicious grapefruits (highly recommend) and sluggish oranges (yes, I didn’t eat it, because it’s not tasty).
Pasta, lasagna, pizza - the choice of Italian cuisine is gorgeous.
There were queues for dinner, yes. But not big - more than 5 minutes never stood.
Sweets, surprisingly, were not only beautiful, but also delicious. All cakes, pastries went with a bang

There are a lot of bars on the beach where they serve snacks (pizza, hamburgers, shawarma, hot dogs) and drinks. There are practically no queues, because, I repeat, there are a lot of bars.

Juices - yes, not natural - yuppies, I do not recommend drinking them. But it's like that everywhere - did someone in Egypt see something else? In a $1.000 hotel? !

Here is Cola, Pepsi - from bottles, bottled beer, gin, tequila, whiskey, rum - the choice of alcohol is huge. There was also wine, but of terrible quality and tasteless. And everything else is delicious and bottled.

Bartenders make cocktails with the addition of various syrups, very beautifully, for children - milkshakes.


I didn’t like that beer was given in zhlobsky plastic cups 200 gr. 200 grams for beer is somehow not enough, the usual dose is 300 or half a liter. Saved money.

SEA: A significant disadvantage of the hotel. The beach is made of concrete, and stomp to the depths on foot for about 7 minutes. There are no fish, however, as well as corals.
I don't understand why pantone wasn't made. We had to go to the pantone of the neighboring hotel, where we were not very welcome.

EGYPT: After the revolution, the country has changed a lot. Previously, tourism was developed, there were a lot of police, the new government didn’t give a damn about the guests - it’s scary to leave the city. I remember that in 2008, it would seem that two girls were resting with my sister, but no one touched us and heard nothing but innocent jokes. Now I was with a man, so everyone grabbed my hands, offered camels. Just awful.
At the airport, they sell visas for how much - some for 17 dollars, some for 15. Swear, if you get paid more, scandal. We did just that - this is already super-impudence, not an airport, but a bazaar.

When you fly back, after check-in, immediately go to your gate and wait for departure there, no duty-free - your plane can leave an hour early and no one will warn anyone. I'm serious now.
Anex-Tus: No problems at all, I read reviews, I was afraid to fly with them, but a travel agency as a travel agency is no different from Turtess, or from Teztour.

I don’t advise you to fly to Egypt, seriously, the country has deteriorated - horror. But if you really want to, I recommend the hotel. Don't read bad reviews. If you have any questions, write to napiwu@ukr. net, I rarely visit this site, so it's better to email.
