Rested at Montillon Grand Beach Horizon Resort from 10 to 17 June 2010. We arrived at the hotel in about half an hour, settled quickly, despite the fact that the checkout time had not yet arrived. In general, the hotel makes a favorable impression, a lot has been written about it, so I would like to dwell on its advantages and disadvantages.
Advantages:
1) location near the center of Hurghada
2) first coastline
3) beautiful well-groomed territory
4) excellent service, attentive staff, quick response to all requests
5) almost round the clock food
6) the presence in the menu of ice cream, squid, mussels, delicious soups, duck, turkey, Arabic cuisine, milk and non-alcoholic cocktails, you can order freshly squeezed juice for $ 1
7) free use of computers and internet in the lobby, WiFi
8) replenished mini-bar in the room, tea accessories
9) free rental of boats, catamarans, masks, tubes, etc. , as well as billiards, table tennis

10) good animation, evening shows every day, live music, you can smoke a hookah
11) Italian restaurant, several types of pizza
12) sandy and coral beaches with different entry into the sea and fish
13) shops, a pharmacy right on site
Disadvantages:
1) shabby furniture and some appliances both in the rooms and in the lobby, dirty / stained windows and doors in the restaurant and corridors of buildings, poor room cleaning
2) constant queues in the restaurant, tables are cleaned slowly, food not cooked very well, reusable plastic glasses for drinks in bars
3) a small amount of fruit, and only one kind for lunch and dinner
4) a small pool, where it is difficult to find a free sunbed
5) the beach is cramped for so many people + boats, yachts, motor boats often moor at the pier, polluting the water and interfering with swimmers + there is construction nearby (noisy)
6) the bar is common to the beach and the pool, and there are only drinks in it, there are no snacks.
Nevertheless, if you do not pay attention to various little things, you can have a great rest, swim in the sea, since it is very close, see enough fish (especially on the coral beach, although they swim up to the very shore on the sandy one), but the hotel is clearly not corresponds to those five stars that hang on the facade. If you have any questions, I'll be happy to answer!
