The hotel was chosen through an early booking system based on amazing reviews, which are not always true.
Operator Pegasus, the Russian operator, to put it mildly, is not the best. Of the benefits - Kharkiv Airlines are trying, in principle, well done.
I liked that the questionnaires were issued on the plane and this greatly accelerated the passage of the border.
Check-in - arrived at midnight at night, as always money in the passport (20) and a gift, gave a standard in the first line. We traveled as a family - me, my wife and my 9 year old daughter. They brought us to a standard room with two single beds for three, they offered us if we don't like THEM THEY SHOULD BE SHIFTED. Add. bed - $10 per day. If you don’t like something, go to the reception, well, I went by bus to sort it out at the reception - my argument we bought a room for three had no effect, I’m in Egypt for the 6th time - this is the first time, other hotels Sunrise Diamond, Hitlon Beach are generally suites for the family they gave without problems.
This one is fundamental. Briefly spoke with Gen. the manager of the reception is a very adequate person. He explained that this is an agreement with Pegasus, i. e. Pegasus so signed a contract with the hotel. We agreed on my word of honor that they give a bed - I deal with my operator, and the next day we decide, if not, I promised to pay.
Pegasus followed. day - literally "It's written on our website... " in general, Pegasus guides will only divorce you for money, and there is zero help from them. The issue was decided by the agency Let's go with us (to Gorky), our agent Irina - for which we thank her very much, Ira we have been traveling with you for 6 years and we will continue.
According to the hotel - 40% Russians, 30% locals, 10% Ukrainians, 20% Poles, British, etc.
The territory is large and with stairs, for whom it is problematic to walk up the stairs - I do not advise. Tuff-tuff runs every 30 minutes - but it doesn't shake very comfortably, so it's not suitable for older people.
Standard rooms and suites. There are probably no quiet rooms - nearby the hotel Experience beats a disco, on the beach once a week a foam party beats until 1-2 a. m. , in the middle of the amphitheater - it also beats but weaker, in short, there is no silence there. Our standard rooms 401-460 are renovated for 3+, flat TV, suites are being renovated, gazebos are being repaired on the beach - be prepared to listen to the drill and smell the varnish.
The sea - corals on 3, tourists staggered. If you want to see the beauty and you are a good swimmer, looking at the sea - to the right for two alien piers - there is a riot, columns of corals, in front of the pier in the sea without a path lives a moray eel. For those who are the first time in Egypt, in principle, you can swim to the left, I'm just spoiled. The stingrays go straight to the buoys 2-3 m from the shore. Often the wind blew, on the left there is a parking lot of yachts and they are CONSTANTLY sailing across the sea back and forth. Garbage after them approaches - cups, bags, crusts... but not always, at times it floats and is unpleasant.
It’s very good for children on the beach, there are so few in Sharm, small pebbles and sand, buoys 1-3 meters from the shore (high tide), in general, children can snorkel or swim, kids wander through the water - this is a huge plus for Sharm and kids.
Animation - it is, it tries, the amphitheater in the evening is quite at a high level, but I'm not a fan. Children's club from 10 to 12.45, and from 15 to 16.30, thanks to Lily there, I liked it.
Drinks are local, I'm not a gourmet, they don't seem to be diluted. Beer either from bottles or from kegs, bottled tolerable. By the pool, the bartender does not like Russians, one day he came, there was no one - he took one glass from the tray, then the bartender came up and I asked to carry, he shouted something about Russian tourists and swore, and as I understood, they poured de-salted water into the carry and travonul me, the day was crappy, I forgive him Christianly, then we talked - he again babbled about the fact that Russian tourists are bad and noisy. I don’t have that, in fact, I rarely go to bars at all. They often give ice cream, eat up in the dump - in the morning on the beach and by the pool, in the afternoon there, in the evening on the street in a restaurant.
The cuisine is ordinary - Egyptian, repeated a week later, there were scandals - our friends saw how the cook dropped the sausage on the floor and then laid it all out for distribution... i. e. the attitude is not very good, in principle, all family members suffered disorders at different stages, although I didn’t have this before in Egypt, they have something with badly washed glasses on the beach, or with the kitchen. The waiters are very professional, the best team for my visits to Egypt, well done. The kitchen manager is such a small hard worker - but I was forbidden to squeeze orange juice into a glass for my daughter in an unpleasant way. But I repeat - the kitchen team, super.
By taxi - I recommend leaving the hotel and agreeing, thanks to Ramadan, he took us to Hollywood, Soho (60 pounds back there), Old Market (100) in two weeks. His phone number is 01227210169 in the local format, this is not an advertisement - he just speaks Russian well, this is a godsend for taxi drivers, you can clearly agree. When you eat - let's bring the money back (I walked there and called him, he took it)
On the Internet - the Internet in the lobby is very bad, if I were you I would buy a Vodafone card with a package for your phone at the airport (2.4 6 GB), the 3G Internet is very fast, it will cost 40-200 pounds depending on the packages, but the speed atas. I have been using vodafone in Egypt for many years, I put a Wi-Fi hotspot on my mobile phone and the family connects. I actively used 4.5 GB in two weeks.
Room cleaning is normal, leave at least a dollar and everything will be ok.
At the hotel, when leaving, they wanted to deceive us - when boarding the bus, after I handed over the room 1.5 hours ago, they demanded $ 35 from us for the allegedly broken balcony door, this is a scam and fraud, they thought it would pass, but I explained that in Egypt not the first time, if so - let's go look at the door and figure it out, they say - you don't have time, you have to go... I say for 50 pounds I'll take a taxi, it's not a problem, let's go. In short, they asked me to write a report that I didn’t do anything, they apologized and let me go. Very unpleasant, so to speak, turned me away from this hotel.
They write that they steal in the rooms - it’s like thu thu, we slept with an open balcony, but once they called us at 2-30 at night and advised us to close in English shouting, imagine this stress : -) By the way, take mosquito repellent, these bastards live in air conditioner pipes and climb through the bathroom, small bitten ogogogo
Conclusion - a strong middle peasant with 80% of adequate and very hardworking staff, but tourists are not guests for them, but a means of making money. Huge pluses - green territory, very green! And a beach for kids. Well, a football hall with a projector (this was important to me - World Cup 2014)

By the way, forbid you eat in the fish market, with us one tourist soooo sooooo that they put droppers. Stale soup ... Then the truth was resorted to from the hotel management, they apologized and the room seemed to be extended for free, but this is a paragraph.
But the Italian restaurant is nothing like that
Да кстати, упаси вас кушать в фиш маркете, при нас одна туристка таакк травонулась, что капельницы ставили. Несвежий суп ... Прибегали потом правда из руководства отеля, извиняться и номер бесплатно вроде продлили, но это абзац.
А вот итальянский ресторан ничего так
