I booked the island of femeli room through the aggregator. The result was that upon check-in, they considered that 60 sq m is a lot for one person and gave it a standard. The worst thing was after dinner...when I arrived the door was blocked...I went to the reception and they told me that with your passport you did not have the right to book this hotel.

They started asking me which country I had come from and where I was flying to...I had a return ticket to Italy...oh since there’s no problem in Italy, stay...I had a great desire to call the police...how is it 21.00 what if my ticket I was not in Italy but in Moscow?? ? Belarus?? ? Cambodia?? ? Would they put me out on the street? How do we even understand this? No one apologized...it’s better to choose another hotel...English people are welcome in this hotel

Bought Fortuna 5*. Came to this hotel IL Mercato Hotel & Spa. Far from 5*. Cons: Tired rooms, old plumbing, cracks in the building… no wi-fi (although they write that it catches in the lobby). And the worst thing is food, no choice, monotonous and not tasty food. Chicken, strictly one part per hand, pancakes 2 pcs.

Bought Fortuna 5*. Came to this hotel IL Mercato Hotel & Spa. Far from 5*. Cons: Tired rooms, old plumbing, cracks in the building… no wi-fi (although they write that it catches in the lobby). And the worst thing is food, no choice, monotonous and not tasty food. Chicken, strictly one part per hand, pancakes 2 pcs. , small. From fruits: orange, tangerine, pomegranate and dates. For the sweet tooth there is a choice. For a week, seafood was served once - shrimp (3 pcs. ) And small crab (1), and so, it's terribly not tasty. Caused a gag reflex. And by the way, there is a (sort of) a la carte restaurant on the roof, one visit is free per week. If I knew in advance what kind of slop they give there, I wouldn’t go... they also wanted to steam shrimp for $ 18 per kg. In general, I am not a picky tourist, not the first in Egypt, but I rested in 4 * hotels, and there the food was much tastier and more varied. And now the pros: the staff is responsive, trying to solve problems as quickly as possible. Cleaning every day. 4 swimming pools, 2 of them heated, beautiful promenade. The animators are trying, various entertainments, interesting performances for children in the evenings, and then a disco (on the roof). Exquisite furniture in the lobby, and a very nice hotel from the outside... That's it!

Upon check-in, they gave us $20 and a chocolate bar, gave us a room on the first floor, which stank of paint and the balcony door did not close. There were no glasses in the room, let alone shampoo and shower gel. The cabinet for the refrigerator was empty, but he stood right in the room and rattled like a victim.

Upon check-in, they gave us $20 and a chocolate bar, gave us a room on the first floor, which stank of paint and the balcony door did not close. There were no glasses in the room, let alone shampoo and shower gel. The cabinet for the refrigerator was empty, but he stood right in the room and rattled like a victim. We asked to be moved, they said that we could not live in a room where it stinks of paint. They moved to another room, there was a kettle and glasses, but the safe did not work, the drain in the sink was broken and the curtains were torn off the eaves, they hung like rags. All metal parts in the room are covered with rust, furniture and doors are very dilapidated. The bed was not changed at all. Towels were not changed for 3 days, and they also managed to twist peacocks out of wet, dirty towels, and this despite the fact that I left chocolate for cleaning. Complained on day 4.
The food in the canteen is so meager, tasteless and monotonous (mostly beans, cereals and vegetables) that we started eating at the Fares restaurant next door. We asked for wine and whiskey. The first two waiters simply forgot about us, the third finally brought the wine diluted at least 3 times, instead of whiskey water with the addition of some kind of tinted chemistry. Desserts are the same primitive biscuits, poured with colored chemical glazes, the same every day. There is no choice of meat, they give either a piece of chicken or goulash, in which there is very little meat, only vegetables, if you do not take it at the beginning of dinner, there will be no meat later. Choice of cheeses - one bowl of feta, which was quickly sorted out, and one processed cheese that tasted like polyethylene. Soups tasteless paste.
On the DR, they brought me a piece of the same gloomy biscuit as a cake, which is every day in the canteen, although I asked not to bring it. At the a la carte dinner on the DR, the husband was given 2 tough shrimp, the same diluted wine and a rotten crab that had black claws and a completely empty shell, with no trace of meat. I was indignant, the waiter ran after me and persuaded us not to tell anyone. Rust on forks. When cups ran out, paper cups were placed under tea and coffee. Fruits - oranges and tangerines, pieces of an ugly pomegranate. Dates were only the first 2 days, and they are very cheap here.
Beach towels run out at lunchtime, many go to the beach without towels. The heated pool is small, like a children's pool. They carry on 2 beaches, paid Phanar and free Palma. We decided not to spoil the rest completely and went to a paid one, there was a lot of space, an excellent reef and internet. In general, you need to be an extremely unpretentious tourist in order to put at least a three for this hotel.

We have rested in this hotel 3 times already, with friends, and the price has come and we already know the hotel. In winter (from 13 to 25 January) the area is very suitable, the hotel accommodation is very good, although not the first line, but near the old market, walking distance to the sea 15 minutes.

In winter (from 13 to 25 January) the area is very suitable, the hotel accommodation is very good, although not the first line, but near the old market, walking distance to the sea 15 minutes. Settled in superior rooms on the 2nd floor above the reception, very comfortable and close at hand, arrived at 7 am, memorized, our rooms were prepared until 11 years old, 2 rooms with balcony to the main entrance, very nice view, especially in the morning, asked for a room teapot brought without problems. The next day they brought a plate of fruit, a bathrobe and slippers, everything in the room worked refrigerator, safe. If there were any questions, the administrator Diana always decided everything, the guide did not take any tours, because not for the first time in Egypt, many places visited, and you can get cheaper on the beach, there are many.
With food all is well, ordered 1 time for dinner shrimp in batter and grilled in the hotel, sooo delicious and both. 1 kg of shrimp $ 18 to the hotel no significant claims.
Beaches palm beach so-so that I really did not like there, it's those that fences a few square meters in one direction and dozens of people like herrings swam, in the other direction did not let in, always fell, as if the current, although the sea was calm sometimes, but it not the fault of the hotel, went to the paid beach Christmas tree lantern, and there is already beauty, saw a large stingray over corals, but expensive $ 5 per person, were the year before last for $ 3. I will not say much about the pools, because it was there only 2 times, 1 exactly with heated water is warm. The animation is great, every night someone performed or competitions. In short, whether I would come here again - definitely so.

I rested with my mother and child from December 2 to December 9.2021. The wind was on December 2 and 8, the rest of the days the weather is fine. December 4th was my mother's birthday, she came up to organize a cake and a festive takeaway! I was pleasantly surprised that it's free and offered to take out at 21:00 for adult animation! Mom was delighted with the surprise, a table with cocktails and flower petals was waiting for us at the top of the bar! Animators and DJ did their job perfectly! All the staff are nice and friendly! The first time we rested on the second line (the budget was limited) With a 6-year-old child, this did not bother us.

The first time we rested on the second line (the budget was limited) With a 6-year-old child, this did not bother us. By bus 5 minutes to the beach, convenient schedule. Palm Beach for free and El Fanar $5. We went to a paid beach for several days, because there is a gorgeous long coral reef and a lot of fish, and fewer people. And the free one is also beautiful, but there are more people.
I also want to tell you about Mickey, who works across the street from the hotel. The day before the trip to the old city, I found out what his mangoes were for ($2.39 each). I think I'll buy it in the city, it's cheaper there... nothing like $ 2.5. And yellow mangoes are $5. I decided to buy from the hotel so as not to take it out of the city. And tdysch is another gift. Mickey made me both yellow and green for the same price for $2.39 a box of 10 pieces. So it doesn't always make sense to go to the old town for shopping, sometimes it's cheaper near the hotel. But I advise you to take a walk, they made a beautiful mountain there next to the mosque. Atmospheric. By the way, mango is very tasty, I recommend it to everyone!
In general, we are very satisfied with the hotel and the sea and the people who surrounded us. I did not pay attention to the old sun loungers, because the sea is important for us. The animation was of a high level for Egypt (how many traveled they didn’t go anywhere), but here they ordered dancers and singers.

Stayed at the hotel for the second time. First in 2019. This time we stayed in a deluxe room. So: there is nothing in the room except towels!! ! Thanks to the fact that we left a dollar, I think we always had drinking water and a tea set. There are no eggs in the breakfast restaurant, no pancakes. Only an omelette in a huge queue.

There are no eggs in the breakfast restaurant, no pancakes. Only an omelette in a huge queue. For the last two days there was neither fish nor meat for dinner.
The bus does not take you to the sandy beach of Terrazina, only by taxi.
Realized that this is my last time in this hotel.

Look for norms. beach, drive or walk, pay for it all! There are 5 hotels on their little beach; entry into the sea from the pier, where there are a lot of people on the steps and near, the same thing in the water, they don’t let you swim behind the buoys, and in this small area of u200bu200bwater there are a lot of people, and the REEF is DEAD, there are NO FISHES, you won’t see any beauty, except for legs and bodies bathing! 3) The food is standard, as in 3-4 *.

5) And the most surprising thing is that alcohol in this hotel is DISGUSTING (we know Egyptian alcohol, we tried it) and it’s good that they brought it with them. Horror; a mixture of industrial alcohol with the most terrible vodka, any, it is impossible to drink - disgusting! Even in 3-4 * hotels, the usual Egyptian, but where the 5 * hotel bought this is not clear.
FOR CHILDREN there is no beach, no normal entrance, no playground, NOTHING! THE INTERNET IS NOT AVAILABLE!

This hotel was chosen because my daughter really wanted to come here (a few years ago we walked through its territory and really liked it). Our room was by the pool, near the reception. The room is good, everything worked fine. They brought with them a whole bunch of mosquito repellents and never used them because they simply didn't exist.

This hotel was chosen because my daughter really wanted to come here (a few years ago we walked through its territory and really liked it).
Our room was by the pool, near the reception. The room is good, everything worked fine. They brought with them a whole bunch of mosquito repellents and never used them because they simply didn't exist. Then I saw various mosquito traps in the hotel. The only thing on the night of departure, when the air conditioners were turned off, they saw these monsters.
They cleaned every day, did not see dirt and honestly did not look very much, because they rested intensively.
In terms of food, we are either not so picky or we were lucky, but it was really delicious. Especially sweet pastries, here the confectioner is great. Every day something brand new delicious and zavarnushki, and such as Turkish sweets and biscuits, and jelly, etc. Kotoshe I +1, man + 4kg.
I also liked the main cuisine, especially my daughter liked soups, and I grilled vegetables, my husband liked that there were always 2 types of meat and fish. Well done manager in the dining room. Very responsible and competent, resolves any conflicts on the spot and makes sure that this does not happen again. The waiters are also just nonsense.
As for the beach, we were taken only to Palma, the buses were on schedule, I also really liked that as soon as the number of people increased immediately added another bus. Buses are comfortable with air conditioning, from us such instead of minibuses. The reef on the beach 50/50 is not that wow, but there is something to look at with a mask. There are many different fish. The man even saw a turtle. Entrance to the water from the pontoon, so for those who can not swim, this option is not suitable. Great inconvenience of women sitting on the steps. But one day she saw an employee uniting them on one side so that the other was free.
Although periodically borrowed both.
This is definitely a big minus. There were enough sunbeds for everyone to bring to this beach from Sharminin, but later there were no problems. Towels and soft drinks from 10 to 17. Alcohol seemed to be too, and we were not interested. Took ice cream and fresh fruit on the beach. Well, that's it. Fresh is definitely not fresh, very suspiciously similar to those given as juice. It is better to take in a bar or in the old town, it is definitely tastier and you can see what is really made of fruit. Also impressed by the work of a beach artist for $ 25. such cool work. At first we didn't even believe that he was drawing (others are much simpler) and then we saw how he was drawing a really difficult job. Unfortunately, they did not know the rules of crossing the border, because they really wanted to buy.
A bartender is simply not a bartender, but a problem. they poor people usually do not even know the composition of cocktails. Also, depending on who is on the shift, you will get positive emotions or not. In short, the bar is their clear weakness.
Animation well done, try very hard, get in touch. Who still wants to drive to discos. There was a fire show, and oriental dances, and live music, etc. The only downside before it was in the Colosseum below, it is definitely better. The roof is beautiful and for many people it is crowded. The administration should think about this.
In general, I definitely recommend the hotel. Got a good impression.

I read the reviews and thought - "like normal". In the end - the worst experience. Upon check-in, we paid extra for a room in the gravel building, since we had a standard (later, when I saw how people trudge from the standard distant rooms in the heat to dine, I shuddered, because it could be me). There is absolutely nothing to do in the hotel, even if they put a ping-pong table.

There is absolutely nothing to do in the hotel, even if they put a ping-pong table. People sit at the reception with sad faces - after all, the Internet is mercilessly slow, or even non-existent. You think, well, okay, I’ll go to the bar in the same place, in the lobby, I’ll drink at least a cocktail, in the end you are met by a boorish bartender whose first words are “come on faster! ”. By the way, yes, I didn’t believe the reviews, but they really pour alcohol into plastic cups =) I’m a polite person, always with a smile, but once again I’m convinced that where you don’t kiss a person, there’s an ass everywhere. This bartender more than once ruffled the nerves of me and my family (he even bantered my appearance, my jaw just dropped from such impudence), in the end I stopped going there altogether. The bartender on the rooftop is good, in contrast to this misunderstanding.
It was very fun to run for water to the bar with bottles, because they don’t give water here, I remember all the same disappointed faces of the guests, as they go down to work with bottles “to drink”. And imagine what it's like to run for water from the standards...
In the dining room (I won’t call it a restaurant) there is always a queue, you can’t get through, a bunch of Arabs, no, even so, a LOT of Arabs (not only in the canteen, of course, but throughout the hotel), so op and fuss are guaranteed, and of course everything for they, for example, do not count on a good piece of shawarma, its central part will go to the Arab, and you will get her ass - a piece of dough with almost no filling =) Therefore, you have to insist that they put a normal piece, or not one mini cutlet but two. Although, it is not worth it, the food is not tasty and absolutely no variety. I just want to thank the two waiters, they are really torn there.
The beach shuttle is just something. Drivers will absolutely not care about you, literally. We drove to the beach, people had their windows open and the driver spat in his window, saliva scattered on the passengers, everyone abruptly closed the windows... ) Rude, ignore questions regarding the schedule, DO NOT stick to their own schedule, a couple of times they left Terazina ahead of time, leaving tourists on the beach (hi taxi). It’s very cool to wait under the scorching sun for a driver who is sleeping, then the buses simply don’t start, and the guests push these buses to go to the beach... (I’m attaching a photo).
Take care of the children, there is animation on the roof of the hotel and there is a breeding ground for mosquitoes, they really EAT people. I spent a couple of hours there in the evening, I was in a dress - my legs were crushed, I wore pants all my vacation, I had an allergy from bites (see photo). On the beach we talked to a woman, she has a small child and he was also bitten, thank God not so much, she was scared and did not know what to do.
Next are the beaches. They take you to Palma and Terazina. And there and there was a witness to injuries. On a palm tree, a woman simply soaked her feet in the water and was bitten by a fish, the woman was in corrals, and the fish gnawed her legs higher, there were bites to the bone. I personally saw her in the blood, there are no first-aid kits, no shit, no one cares, but my mother still found help on the beach for this woman. Also this pontoon... two entrances to the water and both of these entrances are plastered with Arab women and their children, they all cannot swim, they have inflatable circles on them and they hold on to the handrails preventing people from entering or leaving the water, this violates safety precautions, but no one tells them to leave... Once I bumped into them and thought - what the hell, it's safer on the shore.
Terazina - swam swam, then op, the girl ran into some kind of pin in the water, while she was being carried, I saw a huge piece of iron sticking out of her heel... I didn’t swim there anymore)
I don’t even know if it’s worth talking about such trifles as missing toilet paper (or a dollar tip for cleaning is not enough to put a roll on you... hmm)), breathing air conditioning, non-working shower, clogged sink and so on, well, at least they fixed it on request and thanks for that. Yes, and these are really little things that usually do not spoil the rest, at least for ME. Another thing is a boorish attitude, lack of service with all the consequences - this is really disappointing and leaves a residue. I strongly do not recommend this hotel.

In the dining room (I won’t call it a restaurant) there is always a queue, you can’t get through, a bunch of Arabs, no, even so, a LOT of Arabs (not only in the canteen, of course, but throughout the hotel), so op and fuss are guaranteed, and of course everything for they, for example, do not count on a good piece of shawarma, its central part will go to the Arab, and you will get her ass - a piece of dough with almost no filling =) Therefore, you have to insist that they put a normal piece, or not one mini cutlet but two. Although, it is not worth it, the food is not tasty and absolutely no variety. I just want to thank the two waiters, they are really torn there.
The beach shuttle is just something. Drivers will absolutely not care about you, literally. We drove to the beach, people had their windows open and the driver spat in his window, saliva scattered on the passengers, everyone abruptly closed the windows... ) Rude, ignore questions regarding the schedule, DO NOT stick to their own schedule, a couple of times they left Terazina ahead of time, leaving tourists on the beach (hi taxi). It’s very cool to wait under the scorching sun for a driver who is sleeping, then the buses simply don’t start, and the guests push these buses to go to the beach... (I’m attaching a photo).
Take care of the children, there is animation on the roof of the hotel and there is a breeding ground for mosquitoes, they really EAT people. I spent a couple of hours there in the evening, I was in a dress - my legs were crushed, I wore pants all my vacation, I had an allergy from bites (see photo). On the beach we talked to a woman, she has a small child and he was also bitten, thank God not so much, she was scared and did not know what to do.
Next are the beaches. They take you to Palma and Terazina. And there and there was a witness to injuries. On a palm tree, a woman simply soaked her feet in the water and was bitten by a fish, the woman was in corrals, and the fish gnawed her legs higher, there were bites to the bone. I personally saw her in the blood, there are no first-aid kits, no shit, no one cares, but my mother still found help on the beach for this woman. Also this pontoon... two entrances to the water and both of these entrances are plastered with Arab women and their children, they all cannot swim, they have inflatable circles on them and they hold on to the handrails preventing people from entering or leaving the water, this violates safety precautions, but no one tells them to leave... Once I bumped into them and thought - what the hell, it's safer on the shore.
Terazina - swam swam, then op, the girl ran into some kind of pin in the water, while she was being carried, I saw a huge piece of iron sticking out of her heel... I didn’t swim there anymore)
I don’t even know if it’s worth talking about such trifles as missing toilet paper (or a dollar tip for cleaning is not enough to put a roll on you... hmm)), breathing air conditioning, non-working shower, clogged sink and so on, well, at least they fixed it on request and thanks for that. Yes, and these are really little things that usually do not spoil the rest, at least for ME. Another thing is a boorish attitude, lack of service with all the consequences - this is really disappointing and leaves a residue. I strongly do not recommend this hotel.

The hotel is interesting in architecture, although there is almost no territory, a small park in front of the hotel and to the left of the hotel there are a few shops and cafes, and half of them are closed. The hotel is about 50% full. The food is not bad. But All inclusive is no longer worth taking if you are traveling without children.

The hotel is interesting in architecture, although there is almost no territory, a small park in front of the hotel and to the left of the hotel there are a few shops and cafes, and half of them are closed. The hotel is about 50% full. The food is not bad. But All inclusive is no longer worth taking if you are traveling without children. Alcohol must be pulled out by force, they also look like they are pouring it for you for their money))) they are doing a favor. This is in the bar in the lobby, and in the dining room is no better. The food itself is normal, fresh, but again, a variety for a 3 * hotel. Arrogant administrators in the dining room. You can’t pour half a bottle of 0.5 of this city, which they call juice, so that you can drink whiskey in the room))) ran after me through the entire dining room to take it away and pour it out))) brought an empty bottle))) savages, in short))) I advise the association of restaurateurs, or whatever you have in Egypt, choose a more modest star))) 3 * is just right for you))) plus there is no sea in the hotel, they take you by bus. This is not 5 *, once again I repeat. And so Egypt is beautiful, although now it is 40 degrees, not the season for Egypt, but I had to go here. In general, the hotel for one time, I do not recommend)))
