I often (at least twice a year) fly for a week to Egypt. And today, having read in the magazine "Tyzhden" No. 37 of September 10-16, an article about how, on August 4, 2010, at the Mercure hotel near Hurghada, Egyptians who had newly arrived there on vacation attacked a Ukrainian 70-year-old couple on the beach and stood up for her compatriots shouting "Get out of our country!" (in English), and then they were made guilty and the case almost ended for our prison, and the police and the consulate took the side of the Egyptians, I want to warn you and all compatriots from traveling to this hotel. Of the four, we rested, for example, in the Palm Beach Resor in Hurghada - I highly recommend it. But of course it's up to you...

This can happen in any hotels. I also took a break in this hotel in the spring and we really liked both the staff and the service staff. There is no iron in the room, but I think if you ask, they will give it. The hotel is small and cozy. Happy to rest.

Regarding the skirmish on the beach of the Mercure hotel. When you go to a foreign country, you need to accept its mentality. We were in Egypt for the first time, but were prepared in advance by agents from teztour and friends who had already been to Egypt more than once. I confirm the words "This can happen in any hotel." And the fact that the local authorities supported the Egyptians is not surprising. This is what happens in many countries. And sorry if I offend anyone, at the age of 70 people are capricious.
The Egyptians are annoying as flies. The hotel staff is well-behaved, but the photographers and the Egyptians who treble excursions and do tattoos are impudent. But do not immediately yell at them and be rude to them. If you do not need their services, just say that you already have it or you do not need it. Arabs are a hot-tempered people. Be careful! If someone has approached you many times and bothered you, then quietly go to the reception and complain about him to the Russian administrators. After that, he must be removed from the hotel.
MEN!!!
In no case do not raise your hands to the Egyptians! The police will be called immediately and you will be at fault. THIS APPLIES TO ALL HOTELS AND TOTAL EGYPT.
As for the iron. I also think that you can ask for it at the hotel. There are enough hangers in the room.
