Of course, you will end up in a hotel that costs less than a "roulette" or a hotel that costs the same ... It's better to choose a hotel for the same money and be sure that the rest will turn out as planned. And in general - it’s better not to save on vacation, because. if the rest is not successful, then the next one will not be soon;)

Roulette is chosen only by those for whom the name of the hotel is not important. The main thing is the level. There are roulettes for 3 stars, there are for 4, there are for 5. But often roulette is placed in hotels at a cheaper cost than the cost of roulette.
If you are considering the cheapest option among a given stardom, then roulette makes sense. After all, there is a chance that you will get to a hotel with a higher price.
If it doesn’t matter where you will be accommodated, then it’s better to choose 5-star roulette. But I do not advise roulette 4 stars, especially in Egypt. And God save you from roulette 3 stars in Egypt - dangerous to health.

The star rating of the hotel is preserved. No one will settle below. If it is declared 4 * it will be 4 *. On the contrary, they can increase it to 5 *, but then how lucky. We flew all the rules)))

Usually everything is so, if let's say the roulette is 4 stars, then in the search for a tour on the website of this particular tour operator you set the parameters 4 stars and the first 3-5 hotels that pop up will be your roulette.

We flew roulette 3 * .. Extreme ..)) we are divers and we only slept in the hotel, you can say .. We chose roulette, because it was cheaper than any declared 3 * km. The difference in Egypt was spent on food. Again would not fly on the roulette table. For there was no sea as such in that 3-ke - it was below the knee and went to a depth of 250-300 meters. And in winter this shoal is icy, because during the night it blows out with the winds .. I would advise, for example, Khor Palace 3 *, but better (!!!) Sol y mar Safaga 4 *.

Fotuna or Roulette - the names themselves suggest a bit of luck.
If you are lucky - no problem))
We traveled according to fortune in Europe of norms. But I wouldn't risk going to Egypt. Egypt is no longer the same.
аватар ser_____Witness77
you will get sucked - in Egypt it sucks and 4 and even 5 stars ...
аватар Vic-Grin
If the roulette wheel is cheaper than all other offers, and you just want to spend the night, then you can take it. We got into a hotel by roulette with other tourists who chose this particular hotel but paid more. They were divers. Wilderness, of course, but with regard to food and accommodation, it was normal there. They were taken to the sea.

We are going for 10 nights from 11/22/2015. Through Corel Travel. Roulette 5*. Sharm Sheikh. The price with a departure from Samara - for two - 57 tr ... - to be honest, they were seduced by the price))))
Before that, in Egypt there were 8 times ...
It’s a little unclear what awaits us at Roulette.. + We eat with a 3-year-old child and a 70-year-old grandmother.
Previously, they chose hotels very scrupulously .... but now the prices for those hotels that you like - "bite" ...
What could be the most unpleasant thing with such a "fortune" ??
10th line from the sea? ... or .. something worse?))))
How do you think ?...
аватар sannicov
At the end of November, it will be in the windy Nabq Bay with a kilometer-long pontoon, well, most likely ...
аватар l.crown
Guys, well, they said from, I think, turn their "roulette")))
аватар agent_borabora
Roulette 5 stars in Sharm can be:
- 3rd line, but with quality food;
- 1st line, but with old numbers and primitive food;
- 1st line with old rooms and adequate food, but in a windy bay with 500-700 m pontoons.
аватар maxa77
... Guys, tell me, in which hotel in Sharm is a kilometer-long pontoon?...
(Mostly, we go to Hurghada .....
in Sharm were only once .... in-Royal Rojana .. we liked it there ..)
Which 5* hotels in Sharm should be avoided?
аватар ser_____Witness77
"What could be the most unpleasant thing with such a" fortune "??" - the worst thing for you = there will be nothing to eat ...
аватар maxa77
5 * hotel .. and there ... nothing to eat? ....
ser_____Witness77 -- what was the last time you went hungry in a hotel in Egypt ?
аватар ser_____Witness77
At the Royal Paradise Hotel (4-ka) - I wish you to get there too = clean scoop: everything is broken / dirty, there is no food (normal) ... though you might like it = some adore the scoop - it smells like homeland tskt))
аватар maxa77
Thanks for the advice))
It won't hurt us to lose 3-7 kg))
Hotel...Royal Paradise...4* Why did you deliberately go to a hotel with a rating of 2.86?
аватар ser_____Witness77
but I read a couple of false reviews that everything has changed, it has become much better, etc. ... we really ran away from there on the 2nd day, paid $ 100 extra for three and moved.

You can win (Roulette!) I flew from Teza 4 * - the hotel was not in the top ten in terms of price. Quite satisfied.
аватар maxa77
Oleksii64- did you manage to save something? or, the hotel in which you got, the same price as a roulette?
and! when did you find out which hotel you were going to?
At home at the airport? or already in Egypt?
аватар orhideya21
This is usually reported by a guide at the airport in Egypt.
Kilometer-long pontoons in Sharm in Nabq Bay. Take warm clothes for the evening, it will be windy, especially if you stay in Nabq hotels.
аватар maxa77
orhideya21 - thanks for the advice)) we will definitely warm up)))
we are going to Egypt so "early" for the first time .. usually the races become outdated from mid-December to early March .. There was a case a couple of years ago when we almost got into the snow))))
And in the bay of Nabq, what are the hotels from Corel Travel?
What is the saddest 5 there?
аватар Oleksii64
Yes, I saved well. The price of the roulette was the first, the hotel in which he got - at a price in the second ten. Upon arrival, you approach the meeting guide - you say "roulette" - he tells you the bus number - the hotel was already recognized when we were driving. From Teza charter (150 pax) - there was a full roulette bus to this hotel. Yes, the hotel - Turkuaz - I do not remember the name in English. The hotel is quite satisfied.
Some kind of agreement between the operator and the hotel, probably ... Business, in short.
But not the fact that everyone is lucky. Roulette.....
аватар Oleksii64
TURQUOISE BEACH HOTEL 4 * - now it is in 7th place in terms of price, in the first place - roulette, the difference is a single - 100 dollars.
But this does not mean, of course, that they are now loading roulette into this hotel.
аватар maxa77
Oleksii64 - thanks for the positive feedback .. at least someone did not regret that they went roulette))
otherwise, basically, it’s somehow sad to read that there will be “no ice”.
. And there is fear - to step on the rake of a freebie)))
And when did you pay for the tour using the roulette system - did the contract stipulate a line from the sea?
Or just the star rating of the hotel?
аватар orhideya21
Don't bother with the line. An example from personal experience. During the transfer, two young ladies learned the name of the hotel from the guide. They say we don't know. I say this is the 2nd line in Naama Bay. They looked at me with contempt and said that they took fortune 1 line. And to the guide about the line. He began to yell at them that wherever he said, they will settle there. Some cap. How it ended, I don’t know, I left already at my hotel. But, probably, you need to demand your own, if certain paid requirements are fundamental.
And you can go up to the guide and ask what to choose from the roulette and choose. Or for baksheesh try to ask for something not from roulette. But I advise this at random. Haven't come across this. Maybe someone else has this experience and can chime in.

"Guys, tell me which hotel in Sharm has a kilometer-long pontoon" - Royal Albatros Modena.
But Coral in this region has hotels with a pontoon in a dead coral lagoon: REGENCY PLAZA AQUA PARK and AURORA ORIENTAL RESORT.
Most likely you will get to the 3rd line of XPERIENCE KIROSEIZ PARKLAND.
Or in one of the most "hungry" hotels of the first line CONTINENTAL GARDEN REEF RESORT or CONTINENTAL PLAZA BEACH.

"5 * hotel .. and there ... nothing to eat?"
Well, why, there is plenty of food: "seven types of chopped raw vegetables and 8 types of buns)".
But seriously, chicken, pasta, soy sausages, plastic tomatoes and chopped vegetables, dates and olives - this will be the most delicious meal in budget 5 star hotels. Oh yes, eggs, boiled and fried!

About hotels. She cast an eye on our Fortune from Kyiv. Coral does not give a nightmare at 5 *. Even in the nab. Well, maybe Aurora, El Khayat (not to be confused with the global network :)) Sharm Grand Plaza. Read about them at home. The rest is good. For the rest of the resort, they can check in at Iberotel il Mercato, Continental Garden Reef, Continental Plaza-an excellent reef, old rooms, slides, budget food. Everything is more expensive than Fortune from $ 100.
In any hotel, grab a "first aid kit" with coal, loperamide, nifuroxazide. We once came in handy and rehydron. Even in good hotels, rotavirus roams, etc. Usually they sin on the water in the pool. Many carry hand sanitizer and use it in the restaurant.

Line 3 of Kiroseis Parkland. In Naama bay. The location is convenient. Pretty good hotel, but they take you to the beaches. There are two of them.
On "hungry" hotels. We did not even "hungry" took with us a smoked sausage (whole or sliced ​​​​in vacuum) and Borodino bread, chocolate. They didn’t even regret the excellent all-inclusive :))) make sure also :)) you won’t need it, treat our girls to the hospitality, they will be happy and grateful :) they will help with the room upon check-in and with other questions. But here it is necessary to treat immediately :))
