Oberoi Hurghada.
We are resting, writing directly from the spot in order to refute or confirm the opinions that I read earlier on Russian-German-English sites.
They write different things, I won’t be consistent, I’ll just dispel opinions, after reading which I didn’t want to go.
There is almost no information about the hotel in Russian, and if there is, it is only old. As someone mentioned, people who can afford this hotel do not write reviews, I think this is true, I returned home and no longer have time for long opuses, which is why I am writing sitting by the pool, there is plenty of time!
“THE TERRITORY IS HUGE, WERE TIRED TO WALK” - if you don’t want to walk, run, or live on the beach. The territory is not so big, you will pass the whole place in 10 minutes in a straight line. If it is very hot, you can ask for an electric car, it arrives quickly and delivers to any point. Somehow we had to wait 20 minutes, we went on foot, and he met us, he apologized for a long time, he ate, he didn’t eat or drink all day, they had Ramadan. It’s also right, we are all human, I respect his position and religion, how much willpower is needed to withstand this in the heat! At the reception, they also apologized for him and promised to seriously look into it, we dissuaded and asked to simply inform the guests about the reason for the delay in advance.
“THE HOTEL IS NEW, BUT SOMETHING IS BROKEN HERE AND THERE, ” Complete nonsense!!!!! ! Everything is neat and cute, cleaned and rubbed from morning to evening! Yesterday at the pool, the seams between the tiles were smeared with something, the manager came, apologized that we should watch it, but you can only work during the day, again something about Ramadan, and everyone got a cocktail with twigs, umbrellas and other beauties for free, they just handed out the menu to everyone and asked to choose, brought, smiled, apologized!
“THIS IS NOT FIVE STARS! ” Tell me where is better! It's not just five, they strive for the sixth. exactly five! Service, willingness to help, cleanliness, everyone is friendly
“SERVICE IS TOO OBSTACIENT, EVERYONE WANTS MONEY” Nobody wants money, they have a percentage of the order, and what you leave with a rumba AT THE END is your business. YES, someone does not shine with five stars, for someone the service is too much. For my part, I can add, we have been to many places both on business and on vacation, the service is impeccable! They have a man standing by the pool and drives away the seagulls so that they don’t sit on the water, his job is like that, the drive away of the seagulls! Behind the sun loungers by the pool, a person is on duty and anticipates all desires, move the sunbed, bring it away, move the umbrella. The husband forgot his cap in the room, he went, he was asked if he was leaving for good, he explained why, waving his hands went, trying to explain himself in English... (they try, but you will not always understand English). As a result, they sent a typewriter with a rumba to the room and brought a panama hat, why should guests get tired in the heat! Gentlemen, how many stars is this?
“THE GREEN IS LITTLE, EVERYTHING IS ON THE HILLS, GRASS ONLY AT THE ROOM, THE ELSE IS SAND” I want to remind you that we are in the desert. Do not take it for work, talk to the staff, and they will tell you about the concept of the hotel. The sand around is a desert, a group of houses with grass - oases, where it is customary to unhurriedly relax and enjoy the coolness and tranquility. They could cover everything with grass, but this would not be in the spirit of Egypt. I really liked the concept, it’s beautiful, everything fits into the landscape.
“NOT A CONVENIENT BEACH, YOU CANNOT SWIMMING” The entrance to the sea is beautiful, you can swim between the buoys, you can from the pier. There are seven minutes walk along the beach to the pier, someone wrote, but nothing like that, there are always sunbeds, everything is nearby, the shower is nearby, you are just from the shower, and there is already a boy with a dry towel. The woman injured her leg, the guy immediately put on seals, treated the wound, sealed it, came up a couple of times, looked at how things were going, they say, if it gets worse, he will call the doctor. Yes, you can’t swim along the shore with crawl and breaststroke, for this you need to go to the pool, gentlemen. The beach reminded me a lot of the Maldives. We are in Egypt for the first time and were waiting for something like that, But, I confess, the Maldives is better, the fish are larger and more diverse, the corals are the same.
FOOD. Breakfast is like breakfast, not too much and not too little, there is no variety, but we don’t even have it at home, muesli is everywhere, we don’t eat pastries for breakfast, we don’t eat eggs, we had more than enough. Afternoon food by the pool, a little expensive. In the evening in the local restaurant they paid 40 euros for a piece of salmon, unreasonably expensive. Excellent Indian restaurant! order an appetizer for each, and divide the main dish, the portions are huge, and in between they bring small goodies.
DOCTOR, I had to use the services on the first day, despite the hypoallergenic cream and high protection factor, I had an allergy with an asthma attack in the sun. The doctor came, the dearest Egyptian, gave injections, gave pills and just chatted with us for an hour. He speaks excellent English. It turns out that everything at their universities is only in English! In the following days, he called several times, looked for us on the beach and was SINCERELY interested in health, brought medicines, brought an inhaler adapted to the heat, ours do not live there long, consult your doctor if you suffer from asthma, ours are only up to +25, then they can deteriorate . THE DOCTOR IS NOT BILLED - IT'S FREE, so don't be afraid to go with your children, very competent
CITY. The old town is noisy, dirty and untidy, we found a fish restaurant there and ate there, it came out much cheaper, but be prepared that turning off the main street, you will be the only Europeans in their cafe. In the end, we didn’t read the menu, we were told that the cook had tasty food in store and fed it, we hadn’t eaten so tasty, simple and low-calorie for a long time.
MANAGEMENT. In the questionnaire that each guest receives on the last day, we gave everything an excellent rating, complaining about the expensive Internet, the lack of free access to the lobby and the restaurant by the pool, well, it’s not for dinner, so, have a bite. Upon arrival home, there was an e-mail from the management with a plan to eliminate these problems and a promise to inform us about it so that we would be more comfortable on our next visit.
I hope you will be able to determine the level of the hotel from my letter. Don't be afraid to travel with kids. Don't drive if you need to have fun, at 23.00 it's already quiet. It is better to know the language, but there are two Russian-speaking young ladies at the reception, they will always help.
