There will be no problems with visiting because of this. They happen when, on the contrary, after Israel in the UAE. But with the hotel I advise you to think again. Been there personally with my family. Read my (and not only mine) review on this site. I have not seen such "service" anywhere in all 15 (in my opinion) visits to Egypt.

can you recommend any other hotel? I would appreciate that. Just as economical. Just not Hurghada.

By the way, there are more positive reviews about this hotel than negative ones.

oh I do not know. I would like to believe that everything has changed there. Truth wants. But something is unbelievable. There were 9 of us with children. It was a nightmare. I can send proof photos. Although the hotel itself looks great, and inside too. But here's the service ... it's something. My wife even roasted meat herself in the restaurant to eat. And then there are 50-70 people in line, and this freak chef turned around and left for an indefinite time. Well, the wife began to fry meat instead of him and feed people (though only until our turn came :)). There are photos and more. It was constant.

I can not advise, because I haven’t been to any other hotel in Taba and I won’t be for another 5 years, but we’ll see. Let them at least bring water there normally and arrange food supplies. Although many have praised the Hilton and the Intercontinental, it's possible that they are better. From myself I can say that personally I would not go to Taba because of visiting Israel. This can be done from Sharm, though further. The price will be the same as from Taba, if not less. But on the other hand, you will not spoil your vacation and the life of Sonesta. I've been having serious bowel problems for 5 months since then. And I also arrived there with positive emotions and for a long time turned a blind eye to the shortcomings, which I generally try not to notice in hotels. But in Sonest it is simply impossible not to notice.

In Taba you can see the Intercontinental. They praise it very much, but I won’t say for the price ... And in the fall we went to Israel from Hurghada, flew to Taba by plane, and from there it was already according to the general program. In time, it turned out less than by bus from Sharm, but of course more expensive. This is me to the fact that it’s not worth getting hung up on Taba just for the sake of Israel)))

There will be no problems crossing the border. Moreover, a group visa - it is issued without seeing a passport. Worthy hotels in Taba are Radisson, Hyatt, Marriott, Intercontinental, Sofitel, Movenpick, Hilton. The last two are right near the border.

We were in Taba in mid-December, we managed to visit Israel even before the current war. There were 4 stars "Sol i mar see star" as a guest, from the border with Israel - 6 km.! Large room, excellent service, excellent food, believe me, I was in E. for the fifth time, I encountered tough meat in Hurghada. In the passport after the tour, the word Israel is nowhere, unlike "Egypt".

We went to Israel from Sharm, paid for this excursion when buying a tour, it cost $ 60 cheaper than buying from a guide at the hotel. Moreover, the Tour Operator (went from the Capital Tour) from Taba costs $ 190, and from Sharm 140. When asked why, if Taba was closer, they answered that there is something to do in Sharm, but there is nothing for people to do in Taba and therefore excursions are in great demand.

But from Sharm to go to Israel for another 3-4 hours, and the same amount back.
Those who specifically want to go to Israel and Jordan go to Taba. I bought a tour in I. for 190 from a guide, but our fellow travelers for 150 did not want to. Consider if the $50 difference is worth it. hours of torment. Plus, Taba is a new place, beautiful corals everywhere, not yet polluted by tourists. And sail to Jordan for an hour by ferry, and the view from the main building, where the reception is, to Israel, Jordan and Saud. Arabia. I was surprised that the Arabs do not take 50 dollars. for this simple view from the balcony. flag.

Sorry, there is one mistake in the previous letter: 3-4 hours to go from Sharm to Taba, and there from Taba exactly 5 hours, however, there was 1-1.5 rest on the road, where people got off the bus to warm up, drink coffee, buy souvenirs + toilet. We entered Jerusalem exactly at five in the morning, it was dark, but we started by visiting the Temple of the Lord and Golgotha, where there were already a lot of sightseers, waiting in line everywhere.

in my opinion, in Egypt, regardless of the resort, there is nowhere to walk (just walk). I know Hurghada is more fun, but not really. Still, the rest is more calm, more sea and excursions. I understand that most will "approve". Thank you.
