Мои впечатления об отеле... My impressions of the hotel...

At the end of October, we were at the Citadel Azur hotel as part of a promotional tour for three days. Since there are always a lot of hotels according to the program, we were looking forward to coming to this hotel with great impatience. Personally, he struck me with his architectural idea, and I could not understand how he could be in Egypt. That's why I really wanted to see everything with my own eyes.
I will try to convey all my impressions...
Citadel Azur is located in the Sahl Hasheesh area near Hurghada. . The hotel has a very original architecture, built from environmentally friendly materials from mountain blocks that remained after clearing the coastal area. The territory is huge and green. Lots of palms and flowers. The landscape is very well thought out. On the waterfront, which is also the port, there are shops where you can always run to buy something on the little things. You can also just walk there.

Russian-speaking girls at the reception will always be able to help you. Check-in was about 20 minutes. There were a lot of people at the same time, but everything somehow happened quickly.
The rooms are large, all with sea views. Of course everything in the room is new. There are rooms with a balcony, which you can ask at the reception. At the first check-in, fruit in the room, cola, sprite and water in the mini-bar. Air conditioning with climate - control, TV - everything worked. Everything in the bathroom is very neat. Sinks in many rooms with a marble shelf, there is also a hairdryer. Since we arrived at the advertiser, we were shown many numbers. They are almost all the same in area and new. There are still rooms in the hotel in which repairs are being completed, but, accordingly, tourists are not settled there yet.
As for restaurants, there are five of them on the territory (one is the main one, and 4 a la carte), although only three have worked so far. Ten bars on site. The system "All inclusive" believe me, I will not leave you hungry. Large selection of food and drinks. Bartenders know a large number of cocktail recipes, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. I really liked the way they decorate the dishes (a trifle, but pleases the eye). The waiters and bartenders know more or less broken English, you can understand each other.
Many pools (five pieces, two of which with sea water). I was impressed by the pool with direct access to the sea. Interesting idea, very convenient! There is a pool for children. As for children, they will not be bored either - a swimming pool, a playground, a kids club, and most importantly, a children's menu in a restaurant.

Beach? ! spacious and quite long. It is divided into two parts - an artificial lagoon on the right and a sandy lagoon on the left (if you look at the sea). Animators work near the right lagoon and from there you can swim out into the open sea without special shoes. In the left lagoon, the entrance is sandy, immediately deep, then a short distance and, further very deep, then a high ridge of stones, and behind it the sea. There you can walk between the stones and swim out to the corals, only slippers are required. The current in the open sea is very strong, I personally experienced it, so you need to rely on your own strength, and not rely on chance. Corals, fish and hedgehogs can be seen in the lagoon, but be sure not to forget about slippers, because. you can hurt your legs. The beds and mattresses are new and easy to use. There are quite a few of them, enough for everyone.
Impressions from the hotel remained at a high level, even despite the fact that the hotel is brand new. Yes, there are some flaws in terms of unfinished repairs. But this does not affect the overall impression of the hotel! I think when they run out of ideas, it will be a high class hotel. And it won't be the same price. I advise for families with children and for young people.
