Отдых в солимаре Holidays in Solimar

I am writing a review because I choose hotels based on reviews. I'll try to write an objective review. We rested in Solymar for 9 days. Let's go from Aneks from St. Petersburg. We arrived on the morning of 11.12. at 9 am, the hotel was at 11 o'clock. Settled immediately without a tip. The room was given an ordinary one, but they said that it was good, apparently the goodness was in the view from the window))). We lived in the Beach building. Compared to other hotels, the room is large, bright, but there is no balcony (((. We were 2 + 1, there were 2 beds in the room, a cot was brought for the child (the cot was delivered very quickly). They were cleaned well, it was always clean. Towels were changed ))). We lived in room 3525. Wi-Fi was not available in the room, so FREE internet in the reception area or we sat next to the elevator on the 3rd floor)))
2. Food. The food, to be honest, is rated 3 stars. Were before that and in 3 and 4 stars)). But we were not particularly picky, everything was always tasty, but the choice was small. (even on this diet they gained weight (((eh). On the beach they cooked pizza, french fries, a hamburger. There was ice cream. Drinks until 12 at night. Milk cocktails, alcoholic cocktails, various teas, espresso coffee, cappuccino, in general, everything is simple here class, I really liked all the cocktails. ))) Lack of dishes, especially cups and glasses (((, but at the end of the rest, we noticed that we bought mugs))) there were always a lot. 1 time they gave sushi, crabs. There is NO children's table (for those traveling with babies).
3. Animation. I liked yoga, I went to yoga every day. There were also belly dances, latin, water aerobics in the pool, volleyball, boccia. Every evening at 10 pm there were performances or competitions in the amphitheater (Miss and Mr. of the hotel, oriental dances, karaoke). Children's disco, I'm not happy with it, my child always happily went out to dance (in other hotels), sat here and just watched (((.

4. Beach. I'll tell you right away, there is no abyss. There is a dead reef, but there are a lot of different fish, I even saw new fish that I had not seen before. To go to the coral 100 meters exactly, but it did not bother us, even cool, in connection with the latest news about the shark. They swam every day, the beach was not closed, although in Naama the beach was opened only on 16 or 17.12. There was a caretaker, they were not allowed to swim far. The hotel has 2 swimming pools: 1 heated.
5. Staff. Service. In general, everything is fine. But if you compare by star rating, then the staff is a little loose for 5 stars.
6. Hotel vacationers. Hotel SOVIET UNION RESPECT. Most of them are Ukraine, Belarus, Russia (mainly Moscow), during my vacation I saw Italians, about 10 people. The first time I was very ashamed of my compatriots, I found out who the rednecks are, I can’t call them otherwise. Also in the hotel you can see women walking around in flowered bathrobes, for me it was wildness.
7. Aneks guide. Marina - gathered at the meeting, explained everything, told everything. We never met again, and we didn't need to.
8. Excursions. They took it outside the hotel, 1.5 times cheaper. (Near the subway).
9. Discos: Disco in 2 buildings - beach and club - free of charge.
10. Hookah. Hookah can be smoked on site (next to the amphitheater), there is still a Bedouin cafe 2 hotels to the left, there is also a good hookah. )) Still there och. delicious tea. It costs 3 dollars (15 pounds) in our hotel, 20 pounds in a Bedouin cafe.
11. The road to Naama and the old city. For denyushka, For 5 + 1 to the old city they took $ 10, a blue minibus, but it was like a taxi, they didn’t take anyone else))). Up to naama per person - $ 1 on a blue minibus, $ 5 on a taxi per car.
12. Money was changed at the bank next to the METRO.
13. Be vigilant!! ! Check the change in the METRO without leaving the cash desk.
I wish you all a great holiday at the hotel. If you have no complaints, then you will love it. I remind you that you are going to ECONOMIC 5. Yes, but I didn’t find stars anywhere. (((if you find it, it’s very interesting where they hid them)))
We liked our stay in this hotel, little inconsistencies did not spoil our vacation. Good luck everyone. Questions will be ready to answer.
