Hotel ratings by criteria:
I was in Egypt for the first time, I went to Hurghada purposefully - I wanted to go on excursions (Cairo, Luxor, El Gouna) and see the color of the country, but in Sharm it, it seems to me, is not there...
Hotel.
Rooms.
New, opened only in December 2007. Accordingly, the rooms are good. There were practically no complaints. The first small minus is only 2 sockets, 1 from the cat. near the sink in the bathroom... When there are 2 people in the room and you need to charge 2 mobile phones, 2 cameras and 2 cameras... You see, I think . . And the second - ask for a number not on the 1st floor. The rooms for 1 do not have a balcony and nowhere to dry things... Anyway, I personally like to go out on the balcony in the morning and enjoy the beautiful sea view...
Nutrition.
Because I was not in Egypt, I imagined the 5 * hotel restaurant the same. like in Turkey. On the first day, I was disappointed - an Egyptian restaurant and a Turkish one are incomparable things! But "experienced" tourists said that the food is very good for Egypt. Let's believe.
And the guides said that this is the only hotel in Hurghada, in the cat. Truly Ultra All Inclusive!
Service - 5.
Entertainment.
There is a water park, imitated rafting, animation. If you want to be active. there are conditions for this.
Beach, swimming pool.
The pool is huge! This was very important for me when choosing a hotel! There is heating. A large number of sunbeds.
I liked the beach - beautiful umbrellas, partitions allow you to retire... But the sea is very shallow, so we did not swim in the hotel in the sea . .
I would return to this hotel with great pleasure!
Tours.
Hurghada, a new tourist area.
The hotel has a bus that will take you to the center of Hurghada for free at 19.10 and pick you up in 2 hours. But. Believe me, 2 hours is so little! Stay, enjoy this colorful city and take a taxi - it's very cheap there!
I bought there strawberries, dates for $ 1 per package.
Cairo.
I don’t want to write a lot - there are a lot of reviews and information about the city on the Internet. I really liked it! And I repeat, the main thing in the Cairo Museum is a good guide!
And after the pyramids and the Sphinx, you should be taken to a small market. So bargain, as it turned out, there are some of the lowest prices!
El Gouna.
Basically, I liked it. But El Gouna herself was not enough. And if you are faced with a choice, then it is better to go on an excursion to the reefs...
Luxor.
Liked it too. Although Cairo - more.
You will be taken to a stone souvenir shop (chickpeas and prices! ) and a papyrus shop (I think you can find cheaper, but I bought 3 papyrus there for $ 20).
Before dinner you will be told about silver and gold cartouches.
And at the end of the trip, they will make an interesting offer (again, it is beneficial for souvenirs) - for $ 10 - 4 silver pendants and a nubuck chain. It's worth picking up! : )
After the temple of Hatshepsut, souvenir merchants will run up to the bus - you can profitably take souvenirs - for $ 1 2 papyrus (of course, artificial ones - not from reeds, but from banana leaves, but for souvenirs - will do), papyrus bookmarks for $ 1 - 10 pieces.
And most importantly, it is your ability to relax! Without it, you will not be the same! : )
I hope my review helps someone! : )
