A very interesting hotel. In Egypt 3 times, and in such a first time. The food is varied, the chickens ate a year in advance - very tasty. We lived in building C - a very convenient view of the large pool and the sea. Around the large pool every day entertainment. Ice cream and pizza are all nearby. The child did not get out of the pool.

We lived in building C - a very convenient view of the large pool and the sea. Around the large pool every day entertainment. Ice cream and pizza are all nearby. The child did not get out of the pool. Gorgeous sea, near the coral beach. You can take underwater photos. Beautiful fish, squid, rays. The service staff is very cultured. At first, the territory of the hotel was not clear to us, but we quickly figured it out, there are signs everywhere.

We went with friends to this hotel in December 2007. I liked the hotel (Arabic style... wah... ). The hotel is certainly not for small children and not at this time of the year. There is a WARM POOL in the hotel ! ! The paddling pool is also warm. BUT Cool winds in December. And you can get sick very quickly. We left our children at home.

We went with friends to this hotel in December 2007. I liked the hotel (Arabic style... wah... ). The hotel is certainly not for small children and not at this time of the year. There is a WARM POOL in the hotel ! ! The paddling pool is also warm. BUT Cool winds in December. And you can get sick very quickly. We left our children at home. : on the one hand, a warm pool, on the other, unheated (in summer it’s probably generally cool in it, there is a waterfall) and two steps from the sea and not far from the restaurant. Everything is nearby. Attitude... Our company was ALWAYS VERY WELL! tips? Yes, they are at work! They pay them a penny! They live only on tips! You don’t bother with tips in our restaurants... We were always smiling. We gave them tips and everything was instantly executed.
Rooms: cozy (although the furniture is old, but this is not Europe for you! ) I was especially impressed with the kettle in the room and tea-coffee-cream. You get up, warm up the coffee and meet the sun on the balcony.
Food: everything is like in Turkey-Tunisia. In the main restaurant there are themed cuisines every day, there is also Italian. We ate everywhere. Pancakes, omelettes in the morning. Vegetables are different. You won’t die of hunger, but you won’t eat a leg of lamb either. But what do you want cool from them? It’s stupid to read about bad cuisine.
Sea: OWN coral reef. Beauty! We hung out there. There are some other beaches, but we didn’t go there. Hire masks, flippers (free of charge).
A disco... You can go. Although it’s bad, but our company had to go somewhere (although you were young and called) and we hung out there (fortunately they pour it until 2 a. m. , and after drinking it was fun here too), some Muscovites said that we blew up the dance floor : )) (they came, clapped and started dancing). Animators tried, but the best it is still in Turkey.
Alcohol: whiskey, rum, gin, vodka... Everything is decent, not smelly (although again theirs). Sprite, Mirinda, Pepsi from bottles. Pour everywhere: at all pools, at the disco, on the beaches. For us it was important , after all, this is a week of rest and oblivion. But we behaved decently!

It is close to the Airport, but as a rule, they are delivered the penultimate one and the first one is taken away! The distance to the other end of Hurghada in a normal taxi is about 5 bucks or how you bargain, we went to duty free and back for 15, but it was the first day and we didn’t know the prices! The territory is good, they are trying to improve it as much as possible, there were two pools in January, so I don’t know how the summer version, but the winter one is small (heated pool) unclear from the number of people, lotions, etc.

The territory is good, they are trying to improve it as much as possible, there were two pools in January, so I don’t know how the summer version, but the winter one is small (heated pool) unclear from the number of people, lotions, etc. , in short, not a Turkish version. But the big one is cold (very cold in January), clean and cool, when a 36-year-old uncle with three 14-year-old girls just swam! Were with a child 1.5 years old and unknowingly settled on the 2nd floor, there are no elevators and races to the 2nd floor and sometimes when moving around the hotel there is no stroller, I dragged a stroller with a child in my arms! GOROK, there is no jacuzzi, there is a sauna, but we were not there! Nearby, practically on the territory of the hotel - Ali Baba Bazaar - everything is there but more expensive than in the city, right outside the hotel there is a whole series of shops!
There was room 235, two-room, last on the 2nd floor in building A. Positive features from the location, you can’t hear the neighbors! The niece complained that she was awakened by the ringing of the telephone in the next room (she lived in d-127). In winter it's cool as the wind blows, there is a heated air conditioner, but a tricky one - the temperature was constantly dropping! There was a view of the sea and the backyard of the hotel, the situation was normal, something extra was not required. Shower for very thin people, it was cramped for me!
Mini bar - 2 bottles of 0.5 water and small (0.25) merinda, seven apa and pepsi!
Service, in principle, everything is fine too, they smile and try to joke and chat + if you sometimes leave a couple of dollars in different bars, you will be very well received! They even poured me a drink after the bar closed! If you don’t feed them, they won’t strain much and of course they will serve you, but evenly, without feats, etc. We had no problems with the staff! Cleaning is normal, but you need to broadcast the card do not disturb, otherwise in the morning they will start breaking into the room with cleaning and waking up!
For breakfast there was always an omelette or scrambled eggs (cooked in front of you), toast, sausages, potatoes, porridge, a bunch of pastries, some kind of dairy food, all sorts of muesli, fruits, cutting three types of sausage and the same amount of cheese! I had enough!
For lunch there is always chicken, fish and meat, as well as some kind of grill! potatoes, rice, etc. For dinner, too, in principle, everything is in order! In the bars, pizza and also grilled snacks (at the beach bar).
In principle, it’s normal, of course, when you look into what kind of dishes they pour drinks in bars, you quietly melt from the foreboding of trouble (plastic glasses, washed a hundred times, all scratched) but poisoned only on the seventh day!
Yes! There is a very decent-looking restaurant - Italian, where you can have dinner, the set of dishes is the same as in the main + pizza and pasta. BUT waiters serve and treat us very loyally when we drank our drinks from duty free at the table.
I already have sports in the past, but: there is a large diving center on the territory of the hotel, I saw catamarins and canoes, but they are in a dead state and in the lagoon where the boats are, how to swim out of there? There is billiards, flippers masks, volleyball, big chess too!
There is no animation as such, there are some shows every day at 21-00 but have not seen it. Live music in the main bar in the evening! There is a disco, as the comrades said "there are only blacks"
With a child in a year and a half it was problematic: to wash in the room, to carry a stroller, only mashed potatoes from food, and even then not every one, there is no beach for children!
In principle, when I went there, I did not expect anything special! In principle, you can’t go to Egypt after any more or less civilized country of rest and after a holiday in a Good hotel in Turkey! These guys have a long way to go to learn how to fight for a client! Certainly a paradise for lovers of the sea and diving! But it's not me, so I won't go there again! The general impression is normal, I did not expect miracles and did not receive them, I ate, sunbathed, slept, etc. We flew through Voyage-Lux - no complaints! There are claims to the meeting side of Azur-Travel, and Siberia Airlines. Siberia postponed the flight from 13-25 to 11-00. As a result, we were already evacuated from the hotel at 7-30! And the flight was delayed for another three hours! In short, these guys knew about the flight and still we were taken from the hotel to the airport! Tip - find out through Moscow or the Internet about the flight yourself and if it is delayed - send them to the garden and relax, and go to the airport by taxi for 10 bucks yourself and not in 3 hours, but in 1.5 hours. All!
ps. read the reviews about the hotels, we wanted to go to El Palacio, but after reading the reviews and changed the hotel to Arabella, we walked in El Palacia and the Russian-speaking hotel employees indirectly confirmed everything that we read about it!

The hotel is just great! The food is very tasty, pastries - beyond praise. The staff is attentive and helpful. The pools are both quite large, two main beaches: in one lagoon of stunning color, the sea, in the other - corals and sand. The entrance to the sea is by a ladder, which does not bother you at all.

I can’t really say anything about animation - we didn’t go. Various fruits: oranges, pears, apples, dates, melons, watermelons.
The shopping complex at the Abi Baba Bazaar hotel is quite a civilized place, no one is missing by the hand. In one of the shops all the price tags are affixed and on the cash register there is a scanner, which is almost never seen in Hurghada.
The rooms are spacious (although the shower is small). Each of the buildings has its own advantages. Building E is better for divers. D and C by location, A - next to the restaurant.
4 * Arabella - a solid 4! The third time we were in Hurghada, Arabella liked the most.
