Rested (if I may say so) in this hotel from 17th to 24th July 2007. It's just returned.

What can I say:
1. Reviews that are negative are closer to the truth than laudatory odes (sometimes you even get the feeling that they are written by hotel representatives).
2. Yes. Externally, the hotel is good. The staff (attention! ) is not bad either. I'm talking about the Arabs who clean up and try to create at least some comfort. As it turned out, sometimes they are smarter than the Russian-speaking staff. Of course, there was some swindle (for money) from stuff, but the family is not without its black sheep.
3. The beach that the new building has is normal. The old one, of course, is a disgrace.
4. Animators are good.
Good things can end.


5. Arriving at the hotel, the guide immediately handed us over to the Belarusian Svetlana (where she came from and what she was not clear at all. Most likely, she was in charge of rented villas on the territory of the hotel), who was supposed to "place in excellent rooms near the sea. "
We were given the keys, and it immediately became clear that a couple of young people (newlyweds) would live in a more or less decent room with two beds, and my mother and I would live in a tiny little room with one sagging (as it turned out later) bed. In the room, in addition to a small bed, there was a bathroom, which had a shower tray and a toilet almost immediately under the sink, a meager balcony (it must be said, with a “piece of the sea”) and an uncleaned carpet for many years. The room had air conditioning. As we found out later, when he was working, it was simply impossible to sleep. Even the ear plugs bought in the pharmacy did not save from the noise ....

We fought. On the first day, we argued with this Sveta (by the way, on this one bed there was ONE sheet to cover with! When asked "Where", we were offered a blanket in the closet. How do you like it? In July in Egypt, a blanket! Well, aren't you a fool? We demanded second sheet). On the second day - with a guide.
He even promised to change the hotel and disappeared with the words "Well, there are no rooms in Hurghada. " We swore on July 21, because this (Sveta) was supposed to change the number for us ("I give my word" - that's what she said at the entrance). But it turned out that we had to go to the reception at 12 (?? ? ), then run around asking to clean the room in order to change it (because it is busy now). In short, she didn't keep her word. When I went to the reception, it turned out that the villas, one might say, do not belong to the hotel at all. "Solve all issues with Svetlana. " The question about top management received the same answer.


6. Food. RIGHT those who say that the food is bad. The only good thing is sweets. Salads are terrible. They are really from what it is a pity to throw out or have nowhere to put. If "variety" is white cabbage chopped with butter, red cabbage chopped with butter, then I don't know. Forks in salads (!!! ). So stand like a fool, pick this same cabbage and try to put it on a plate.
If you got to a late dinner, give up snacks altogether - they are already rotten. The cabbage that has lost its appearance with butter is dressed, it seems, with mayonnaise and served. Be afraid! ) Meat - one species, poultry - chicken, fish - oooh ...well, this is on holidays. I'm not spoiled. It's true. But I have something to compare. Once I was in a 3 * hotel in Turkey. There the whole buffet consisted of two tables in total. But it was DELICIOUS. And here is some bullshit.
But! I give credit to the soup and rice)))

By the way, on the 2nd day I got very poisoned.

7. You know, there were a lot of things. Just can't list all the little things.

Conclusion: for those who like to eat well, sleep on a good bed and not wake up with a sore back, love comfort and tranquility on vacation, this hotel is STRICTLY CONTRAINDICATED.

P. S. : The hosting side of Enter Gulf Travel works very poorly. Don't contact her.
