A very good hotel, the rooms are well renovated, well cleaned. A beautiful sea with three types of entrance - sandy, from the pier, or from the lining of large stones. The reef is very good, there are a lot of fish, we saw moray eels, squid, stingray, huge flocks of small fish, it is very entertaining to swim. I really liked the animation, fans of various activities will not be bored: there are both sports and entertainment events for both adults and children. Also, every day the animation guys organize different shows with the participation of the audience, which is also a lot of fun. The staff is very friendly, the reception was always ready to help and resolve issues. The food is varied, for every taste. Among the disadvantages are the cutting of bracelets at late check-out, tasteless coffee and tea in the dining room (but you could go to the lobby bar and bring a good one), queues in the dining room, which generally move quickly and, if desired, you can not stand from the very beginning, but take only what you need). The disadvantages were not significant for me, because the trip was very bright and active. For those who do not come for a lazy beach holiday - a fairy tale. We participated in all the animation events and swam in the most wonderful sea, exploring its new inhabitants. I want to return to this place

I am vacationing in hotels, I would like to note that the hotel is not large, but cozy. 3 buildings with 6 floors each.
The food in the restaurant is delicious, but not very diverse, but there is something for every taste. The room is very ordinary, clean, but tired of regular guests. Each room has its own balcony, most rooms have small balconies. The view from the balcony mostly opens to the sea, especially in the 2nd and 3rd buildings. The rooms are cleaned every day. You need to be prepared that the cleaner will come and offer to pay extra for room cleaning.
The staff is friendly, as much as the Arab staff can be. The beach is good, there are a lot of sun loungers and umbrellas. The entrance to the sea is either sand or steps. The sea is clean, you can swim without slippers. There is a small coral reef, you can swim and watch with a mask. Dolphins periodically appear at the beach. The bottom is without hedgehogs. Drinks in the best Egyptian traditions, nothing special. Algukogol is not very good, apparently because there are not many drunk guests in the hotel. The territory is well-groomed, clean and tidy, even if it is not large. Everything is very compact, there is no need for a marathon for lunch or to the sea.
There is a water park for children, a children's pool, and the sea near the shore is suitable. Overall, I was quite satisfied with the hotel, there are no obvious comments. I took off one star for the food, it's still worth working on the menu. But the fruits are great, watermelons, melons, bananas, dates.

We had a rest in July 2024.
They settled in quickly, offered to upgrade the room category for $ 60.There is a small zoo and shops on the territory.
The territory is adjacent to the Sphinx Hotel.
The furniture in the rooms is a little tired, but it is clear that cosmetic repairs were made, so it was not so terrible for us to be in the room (but still, I wanted to update the furniture already)The staff cleans (change towels, put water (1.5 liters per room per day), make the bed) in the rooms only on request.For a tip of $ 1, they will make different figures out of towels, as a mini-gift to the guests.
If we talk about food and restaurant, then there is a lot of choice.There was always a choice for our vacation:beef, chicken or fish, and 2-3 types of side dishes.There have always been dates, oranges, melons, bananas.A large selection of vegetables and salads, as well as pastries and cakes.There have always been 3 types of juice (they are, of course, highly concentrated, but if diluted with a little water, it will be just right), tea, coffee.There are various drinks in the lobby bar, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic.You will definitely not stay hungry!
The beach was our outlet.A large reef with fish.Be sure to take a case for underwater photography!Free sun beds could always be found.There are many "sellers" of different products, but if you tell them that you are not interested, then they do not fit later (this was the case with us).
Animation is also present in this hotel.It starts working from 10:00 a.m. From that time on, music is played on the beach and sometimes there was water aerobics, darts and other entertainment.
Free WiFi is only available in the hotel lobby, and it was only enough for WhatsApp correspondence.We bought an Orange SIM card, 40 gigabytes for 15 €, but in the end we were deceived and the Internet ended on the third day (the phone showed that the consumption was only 13 gigabytes).Therefore, immediately check on the spot, without leaving the SIM card rack.
Now it's worth mentioning the main thing:if you need excursions, then do not buy hotel guides from your guides (our hotel guide intimidated us that we could not go on excursions without him, forced us to write a refusal from excursions, allegedly all our data would be transferred to the tourist police for information).We read about the excursions in advance, back in Russia, and have already booked from SamiTur.We took 3 excursions (Luxor, super safari, bathyscaphe and a sightseeing tour were given to us as a gift for free).Well done guys, excursions at very reasonable prices (the bathyscaphe at the hotel was offered to us for $ 25, we bought it for $ 8).
In principle, we are happy with our vacation.You can come to this hotel and relax, but whether we would have returned or not is worth thinking about.

Nice hotel on the first line, the sea is super, the beach is clean. The territory of the hotel is cozy and clean. Daily room cleaning with a surprise in the form of various animal figures made of towels. The food is excellent, there is always a choice of dishes. Friendly, friendly staff, Russian-speaking. The disadvantage is the lack of Internet in the room, Wi-Fi only in the hotel lobby. But the issue can be solved by purchasing a local SIM card from the administrator.

We had a family vacation in September at this hotel. Close to Hurghada airport. Buffet meals. All inclusive, there are 2 restaurants on site. Where you can have dinner for free by booking a table in advance at the hotel reception. The sea is a couple of minutes walk away. The beach is clean, the sand
The sea is calm, warm, clean, the approach is smooth. There are souvenir shops on site (rubles are accepted) There are animators
They hold various shows, even adults stick
There are facilities for people with disabilities (ramps, toilets)
Justifies its price by 4+

We had a big family vacation in August 2024. I really liked the hotel, the beach, the sea, the coral reef nearby, a lot of beautiful fish, going to the sea is just right for children. The diet is excellent, we ate too much every day, fish and meat, there is enough fruit. Alcohol is not very good, beer is paid only normal. The animation is cool, the children were just attracted.

The hotel includes 2 hotels at once. Small, but cozy.
The rooms are very simple, there are jambs in the room, but not critical. There is not much food to eat, but there is a choice, everything is delicious, there is plenty to choose from. We took excursions from the operator and from samypremierguide (I highly recommend these guys) good service, we did it on 11/10. They took the island of Utopia.
By sea - a wonderful reef, 2 calls, for the sake of the sea you can safely go

We went to Egypt and were afraid... the heat, July, not the best hotel. But it turned out to be not bad. They gave a wonderful family room for a chocolate bar. Everything is worthy! It was well past 30 outside, but the hotel had air conditioning everywhere except the beach. The sea is magnificent, there is a lagoon and there are corals with fish. There were even stingrays and dolphins. The restaurant is not the coolest, but it has everything: meat, fish, crabs, pie. One drawback of the hotel is alcohol. It is impossible to drink free beer, but Arabs come up every minute with a normal beer for $ 2 or three bottles for 5. The staff is friendly, there is always Internet at the reception, Russian is understood. In general, we were satisfied, although of course the hotel is not one of the best.

Hello everyone I'll write the pros first:
The territory is compact, which is important for the age group and children. The beach is modest, but sheltered from the wind, which is important in the eternally windy Hurghada. There is a second one, but there is a constant wind.
If you pay extra at the reception, you can get rooms in Sphinx (it's much newer there, everyone has balconies and there is no view of the city, and there is no urban noise). Both hotels are fed in the Kingtoot restaurant and in the restaurant on the beach. The food is decent, but not like in the magnificent five.
The rooms are spacious but tired. Some do not have balconies or views of the city and the construction site (this is to pay extra for a normal room). If you are going on an excursion or early departure from the hotel, you will be given a lunch box (two sandwiches, two buns and jam, a banana, a cucumber and a small juice). The rooms are cleaned well, but naturally the bucks are waiting)))
From the bad :
The bracelet will be put on after 10 a.m., if you arrived earlier (so that you don't have breakfast by accident) and when you leave, they will immediately cut off after 12 so that you don't accidentally have lunch once again. But the worst thing is that I returned home all bitten (there were no mosquitoes in the room), I do not undertake to talk, but draw your own conclusions.
If it wasn't for the last fact, it would have been possible to return. Location within the city limits. It is a 15-minute drive from the airport, 10 minutes to the Sheraton.7 minutes on foot to the Hurghada center.
The conclusion is for unassuming tourists.

The old one is separate, but everything works.
With check-in for a small fee, they will provide a better room.
The sea is excellent, there is a calm entrance, there is a direct access to the sea. But swim no further than the buoys.
The food is good. There is something to choose from. At lunch, meat and fish are fried on the balcony. There are few fruits.
The Chinese restaurant disappointed, about nothing!! I don't even want to write.
In general, I liked the rest.

The territory of the hotel is very well maintained and beautiful. The staff is friendly. The beach is good, but it is advisable to have special shoes as the shore is not very comfortable when entering. You will not stay hungry, there is a lot of choice, everything is generally edible. The rooms are not the most modern (the renovation is not fresh, as well as the furniture)

A great stay at the hotel. This place is ideal for both children and adults. Yes, it's a small area, but it's just right with small children. The rest was a great success! Great and delicious food, children are happy with the food - this is the most important thing. The sea is clean!
Everyone is recommended to visit there!

- In general, a good hotel, with good food, the rooms are tired, but if you just need to sleep and wash somewhere, then it will go, on the territory of the hotel and the beach at every step they expect you to pay money and buy something)
- they want a tip, but we once ignored a hotel employee at the entrance, when he was expecting a tip, but then the room was cleaned, water was brought, we did not feel discrimination
- We went through the Biblio-Globus, I do NOT recommend it, the guide will forget about you as soon as you order and pay for excursions from him.
- The beach is good, it is carefully cleaned every day, the sea is clean, you must have aquashoos with you, the bottom is dotted with dead coral reefs, there is a small piece of a living reef where you can dive
-The animation is very collective farm)
- The dogs in the aviary, which are rented out, and the monkey were upset, it is a very sad sight, the animals look good, they are being watched, but very dubious entertainment, the animals are clearly not comfortable in the intense heat
- There is no gym, that is, it kind of exists, but that's a laugh, and that's all) a curved horizontal bar, a dead track and something like a simulator were stuffed into some kind of closet ~ 10m2, but I didn't understand why) and also if you still figure out how to work out there, then good fellows will look at you a la the administrators of the spa at the hotel))

Great hotel. I will definitely come again. They cook very well. The entry into the sea is gorgeous. There is a reef nearby. Well-maintained territory. It's very green. The staff is friendly. The rooms are tired but very clean. The animators are super! For the first time in my life, I enjoyed going to the evening shows. They laughed until their stomachaches hurt. The guys are giving their best. I highly recommend the hotel...

Good afternoon, everyone. We love to change our vacation spot, but we plan to get to this hotel again. Rest for 5 days from the beginning to the end. The rooms are comfortable. The restaurant has a varied menu even for children. The sea is 2 minutes away. Your reef and fish, take masks. Animation! The staff is friendly, not beggars. Olesya has her own person at the reception! Solves all problems, tells you. This is very convenient, especially if you do not know the language. The hotel is recommended!

A good budget hotel, we have been staying in it for 10 years. There is a beach for children and adults, a nice living coral reef. The food is varied, fresh, and delicious. Alcohol is diluted with water, it spoils the impression very much. The territory is beautiful, well-maintained, small. In terms of price and quality, the best option for a holiday. Ideal for families with children.

A good hotel for a foursome, there are nuances, the doors in the rooms are banging, the rooms are not new, but this is a budget foursome. The beach is good, there are a few carals, there are enough sunbeds, lunch next to the sea is super, the main drawback for October 2022 is that beer is very strong, and considering that local drinks are not very good, this is the main drawback. You can get to Sheraton by taxi, but it is more profitable to take a minibus, change the currency to local ones. The staff at the hotel is super, sincerely trying to make the rest a good one. Because of the beer, we will be staying at another hotel this year, but everything was fine.

February 22
2 adults and 2 children rested for 11 nights in February 2024.
The hotel is certainly tired.
Of the advantages:
A bay on the beach Without winds
Close location to the city center and a large modern shopping center with low prices
There are a lot of friendly employees (all kinds of positions)
Of the cons:
A third of all rooms (mostly standard class) face directly onto the road — unreal beeping noise, and motors up to 3 am daily— there is no sound insulation from the street at all (take earplugs)— or better yet, the Sphinx Hotel is on the same territory, but away from the road (this is one grid)
A meager diet is almost always the same (you won't stay hungry, but the monotony gets boring).
There are a lot of annoying sellers on the beach.
From the general:
The animation is weak (the team was changing just during my vacation)
, savings are visible on everything.
The hotel is suitable for people over 50

I was in sphinx aqua park, but the territory and the dining room are one for 2 hotels, I write more here: the territory is good, the beach is excellent, there is a pier, you can dive from it, it is quite deep, there is a sandy beach nearby, not deep. The dining room sucks, there are always queues, there are not enough tables, the food is average.

The hotel itself is good, the sea is awesome, the staff is Russian-cooking only Olesya, at the reception, but there are others who understand Russian. The main restaurant is always a lot of people, queues, we went to a restaurant on the beach. There is always a variety of food, there is enough of everything, the fish is very tasty, different types of cape, vegetables, sweet dishes, we were not hungry. The beach is good, there were always enough sunbeds. The animation is monotonous, not interesting. There was always enough water, too, if necessary, you can dial from the cooler at the reception. There are a lot of crows who try to steal your lunch (it's in the main restaurant if you eat outside). There are shops on the territory, the prices are acceptable, we bought souvenirs for ourselves, black cumin oil, sweets. The pool is also great, although the employee did not always turn on the "Jacuzzi" at the request. Interesting pool bar. In general, we liked everything.

I read negative reviews and am surprised. Apparently, people have excessive demands. Personally, I liked everything more than. Even at the pharmacy, the seller advised and helped when I planted a coral under my nail. All the staff is polite, they helped with the local SIM card to sort it out, they gave food for the tour, before and after the eviction they were fed lunch. Half of the staff speaks Russian. The waiter took my table when I asked. The seller at the oil store gave me gifts. Yes, they ask for tips for every step, the woman at the spa asked very insistently, but you can smile sweetly and leave if you don't want to tip, nothing terrible will happen. The room was cleaned every day, towel figures were twisted, but most often there was a heart, apparently it was easier to make. They love chocolate "Alyonka", I left it on the bed for the one who cleaned my room, hung everything up smoothly and fixed the bed)))) the sea is a separate delight. August 2024. The color is unreal, there are a lot of fish, the reef is incomparable. I swam with a mask, admired until the sun went down and we were kicked out of the water))) the food is excellent, varied, delicious, and I don't want to take it with me to the room, I ate enough. There were two guides, I only saw them on the first day. But in general, I didn't need them. Olesya, a celebrity among Russians, always helps. But I didn't have any problems asking her for anything, I just saw how people were reaching out to her.

We stayed at the hotel from November 6-15.
I will briefly describe the pros and cons of the hotel.
We tried to check in immediately upon arrival, of course we were given the most terrible 104 room with a view of the construction site, for an additional fee of $ 60 we immediately replaced it. Some paid extra 150 for the bungalow, so keep in mind.
The hotel has 2 beaches with shallow water and sand, there is no wind and the second one with a pier and depth, there is a strong wind. It didn't bother us much, because the air temperature was good, it was comfortable to tan. 2 pools with ice water, probably did not have time to warm up overnight.
Gorgeous sea and reef, lots of fish, enjoyed swimming with a mask and exploring the underwater world. Take coral slippers, sharp stones, there is no way without them.
Excellent cuisine. Every evening, a variety of grilled dishes, pasta, sweets, pastries. I liked it very much, everything is delicious. Seasonal fruits are guava, bananas, dates and oranges.
Good animation, half an hour of the show program every evening, especially liked the fakir show and something like a National evening.
Dollars can be exchanged for pounds at the reception, the exchange rate is normal. You don't have to change it, but local stores don't convert it in your favor.
The hotel is well located, everything is close. The fruit shop to the right of the hotel, on the same side the Zahhra confectionery opposite the mosque, unfortunately accidentally discovered it on the last day. We took a taxi to go for a walk to the Marina, to the center. 2-3 taxi dollars.
Now the cons.
1) Music from 6:50 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. And it rattles during the day, especially on the beach, go deaf.
2) alcohol is diluted, including beer. Many people were swearing. We went to Drinkis, where you can buy local alcoholic beverages and beer.
3) the rooms are frankly tired, maybe the Sphinx is newer, we had a broken mirror, the sofa is sagged, all the textiles are dirty. Furniture needs to be replaced.
4) check-out is standard at 12, the bracelets are immediately cut off, respectively, if you have a late flight, you will be left without lunch. In particular, we were refused, referring to the fact that we had lunch on the day of arrival. The sediment remained.

The hotel has two beaches: children's (knee-deep, lots of fish) and from the embankment (deep reef).
Meals for 3 in variety. Pancakes and fritters in Egypt are cooked very strangely: they taste like a sole. Everything that is cooked on coals is brought to the state of coals. The guide said it was a tradition. What is cooked in batter or in the oven is delicious.
There are many drinks both in the hotel and near the sea.
There are many shops near the hotel. In Egypt, the better the seller speaks Russian, the more expensive it is.
There are also excellent Russian-speaking diving instructors at the hotel. They conduct a free swim in the pool. If a person succeeds, you can go to the sea. For $15, you will be taken for a half-hour scuba dive right from the embankment into the sea to the reef to a depth of 12 meters. I recommend swimming in the morning, when the sun most successfully illuminates the reefs near the shore of the hotel. The instructor is attentive and experienced.
It costs very little to replace a room.
Animation on 3-.
The water park is good.

The hotel itself is not bad for 3*, but in no way
not 4*. Egypt, you need to understand right away this is not Turkey, they clean badly, they just use a dirty rag, towels are not clean, like all dishes, glasses and plates, everything is chipped, you need to be careful with children, the water in the shower to be bought is almost cold, for 4 guests there are only 2 mugs in the room, which is considered the suite and we paid $100 for it on top. The remotes don't work, and neither do the buttons on the TV. I am generally silent about disposable items, only shampoo and gel. I WOULD NOT WANT TO WRITE ANYTHING IF, IN THE EVENING BEFORE DEPARTURE, THE AGENT OF ANEX TOUR, WHO IS SUPPOSED TO SEND US BY PLANE TRANSFER, SAID THAT HE DID NOT KNOW US, AND WAS NOT GOING TO EXPLAIN ANYTHING TO US ABOUT THE AIRPORT, BEGAN TO BE RUDE TO US, SINCE WE DID NOT COME TO SOME MEETING!!!! WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!? I paid money for it!!!!!!! We have never seen such rudeness, with which I myself flew with the children, and also came to the reception with them and it did not stop him!!!!

We rested in this hotel from 14.09 to 22.09 together with a friend. Tour operator Biblio Globus, AK Aeroflot - everything is here, as usual, clearly and without complaints. Departure on time, food and drinks are present. On the way back, they even offered wine, free of charge. There is a multimedia system to pass the time in flight. At the airport, too, everything is fast enough. Visa 25 $, local SIM card Orange with a balance of 46 GB -9 $. So, life hack No. 1 – if you need to be constantly in touch, then take a local SIM, because Wi-Fi does not work at the hotel. Not in the lobby, not anywhere else. The paid Wi-Fi that they sell, by the way, is also constantly falling off. Even the guide could not solve this issue.
We are going further. Transfer from the airport to the hotel in about 30 minutes. We were greeted with a cold drink in the lobby. A not particularly friendly lady (not Olesya) at the reception informed us that we get either a room with a balcony, but with one bed, or a room with two separate beds, but without a balcony. A room with a sea view for an additional fee, but they are not available today. After consulting, we decided after all that sleeping in the same bed for us- two married ladies is not comme il faut and took a room (426) without a balcony. Looking ahead, I will say that the number can be changed by connecting your guide to this issue, and without additional charges. There were cases when rooms were provided for replacement in the neighboring building of the Sphinx Hotel. But we didn't bother, because in fact, we only slept in the room. The room is large, not new, noticeably tired, but everything works. Everything is standard in the room: two beds, a wardrobe, a mini-refrigerator, a TV, air conditioning, a safe (free of charge), a shower, a hairdryer, a small set of soap and soap accessories. The safe was rarely used, no cases of theft were noticed. Room cleaning was limited to replacing water (one 1.5 liter bottle per day) and making the bed. By chance, they somehow brought sand from the beach on slippers, carefully packed this sand under the bed, it was there until the end of the vacation and lay there. Perhaps it was inherited by the new tenants of the room.))
The territory is shared with the Sphinx hotel: an adult pool, a children's pool, a water park -old, seen the sights, but you can frolic once. Your ass just won't stand it anymore, because all the seams on the slides are felt. Three restaurants: two casual and one ala-kart restaurant (you need to sign up for it in the morning on the day you want to go). A volleyball court, a children's mini-playground, a mini-zoo (monkeys, dogs and birds), several shops and a pharmacy (but at cheaper prices in the Fix-Price store opposite the hotel), a spa, a sports bar, a disco bar, an arena for evening animation. The animation is not wow, but the guys are very nice and diligent, every evening they try to do something and cheer up. I would recommend the hotel management to place a bar with drinks included in the all inclusive on the territory of the disco bar, then people would go there in droves. And so boring. Everyone huddles at the only bar open until 24:00 – at the lobby bar. This is extremely inconvenient. You don't run off the dance floor. Accordingly, after 17:00, when the beach bar and pool bar close, a permanent queue accumulates in the lobby. As for drinks: cola, powdered juices like Jupi, soda, powdered, but more or less tolerable lemon and orange juices, rum, whiskey, gin, vodka, brandy, ozo, white/red wine and disgusting beer of 15 degrees strength. If you learn how to mix cocktails correctly, you get a more or less tolerable drink. But what is noteworthy is that there were no unpleasant sensations from local alcohol in the form of a hangover, headache or, God forbid, poisoning. And attention! Life Hack #2 -take it from home (or buy it here on the spot) glass. Yes, yes, the eyes do not deceive you, it is the glass. Of course, I understand that the hotel is from the budget category, but the 21st century is in the yard, is it really impossible to buy normal dishes, and not this plastic misunderstanding in 200 ml, which, judging by the condition, saw the Pharaohs still alive. Well, there are normal glass glasses, we even met them several times.
The food did not cause much excitement, but in general I liked it more here than in the Charm five two years ago. It's monotonous, but you won't stay hungry. +3 kg came home with me. However, for small children (and there were a lot of them in the hotel) there is not much choice. I was saddened by the fact that at the height of mango season, this fruit was never presented at the hotel. Tasteless melon, guava, sour pomegranate, bananas, grapes – it seems that's all. But it is worth noting the pastry chef. Whatever, the sweets were delicious.
What can not be said about the local hookah. It costs $ 8, and the grass tastes like grass (not the one that is cheerful, but the usual one that grows along the road).
Queues arose during the meal, there were not enough places for everyone at times. This issue was solved either by shifting the time of meals, or by visiting the Sphinx restaurant – the diet is almost the same, only in smaller quantities. The meal on the veranda was constantly disturbed by crows trying to steal food, napkins, cigarette butts from ashtrays, etc. The same crows left traces of their stay on the walls and furniture, ala "Vasya was here", which did not look very aesthetically pleasing, to put it mildly.
But all these little things fade and fade into the background as soon as you dive into the sea. The presence of a mask for snorkeling is mandatory! There is a really beautiful live reef here. For this, you forgive the hotel all the disadvantages. The gentle entrance to the sea, of course, would not hurt to clean. Still, it's not comfortable to walk without special shoes. By the way, there is a diving center on the territory of the hotel, where you can try a 5-minute scuba dive for free and, if hooked, purchase a full-fledged sea trip with diving. They did not buy excursions from the tour operator, the prices are overstated twice! compared to the local company from which Luxor was taken.
The atmosphere in the hotel is friendly, no divisions on a national basis were noticed.
In general, the rest flew by like one day and, despite everything, left only positive emotions. Thank you King Here! And a more detailed video review of the hotel can be viewed on my channels: YouTube - Lily Excellent, Yandex Zen – Under the sky of the world.

We recently vacationed at this hotel. I must say right away - for Russians, you do not need to go to this hotel!!!!
They settle in squalid rooms - there is no balcony, windows on the city street and construction site, showers are completely killed, that is, there is no water! During the 12 days of rest, the bed has not been changed once! Towels - 1 time at a time. In order to get a more comfortable room, they get money from $ 60. The sunbeds on the beach are all dead!
A 1.5l bottle of water is put in the room, regardless of how many people live in the room.
There are newer buildings and rooms on the territory. But they are inhabited mainly by Europeans! And Russians only for a surcharge!
The beach is decent, the sea is gorgeous.
The food is good for 4.
Alcohol is only for money. The fact that they pour wine and beer cannot be called. They serve everything in plastic cups, like in a doorway!
On the day of departure at 12, you hand over the room and cut off the bracelet. On a night flight, you can stay without lunch, you can defend your rights and get a piece of paper for lunch.
And forget about dinner!
But if you are a Russian speaker and you have a European passport, then there is an opportunity to have dinner.
The staff is boorish and arrogant.
To sum up, I want to say
Do not waste your money on a vacation at the Hurghada King Hotel, there is a rezot water park!
More negativity than positivity!

I rest in this hotel 5 times, I like everything.the territory is cozy and clean, the rooms are good, but repairs are needed. The sea is gorgeous, there are 2 approaches:deep from the pier and gently sloping in the lagoon, protected from the wind. The food is delicious and varied, this year it has become even tastier, there is always meat, chicken and fish, a large selection of sweets and pastries. The staff is courteous and friendly, the atmosphere in the hotel is such that you feel at home. Special thanks to the Administrator Olesya, he will always help to solve any problem. I'm waiting for my next vacation to come back here again.

The service is not very good, the beach is not well maintained. The pool was not used. The number of rooms in the main building has complaints. One side of the building overlooks the construction site and the kitchen. The sight and smell are terrible. I liked the food. The territory is well maintained. Alcohol is diluted, even a can of beer. I won't go a second time.

The only plus is nutrition. Varied and delicious.
The hotel itself is very small, the attitude of the staff is disgusting. The room stock is very old (without additional payment they were generally settled in a 3x3 room, which smelled damp)
The sea is set in stones, you can't go in without aquashouses.
Be vigilant and keep an eye on your belongings! An inflatable pillow was stolen from us at sea + we have heard a lot that they steal even from the balconies on the first floor
When handing over towels, COUNT THEM!! Because the employee receiving them is still trying not to give you a card (a fine of $ 15 for the loss of the card)

The hotel has a maximum of 3 stars.
I should immediately note that we are not picky tourists. There were also 2* hotels in Romania and Bulgaria and in excellent 5* Turkey. But this hotel has distinguished itself and not in a good way. We talked with a lot of people of different nationalities, everyone is shocked by the hotel, no one liked it.
Arrival, accommodation, rooms: arrived at the hotel at 23.40, managed to grab a snack a little, because almost everything was already cleaned in the restaurant. While still in Minsk, they asked for a room with a balcony (this is important for me), but ... they gave me such squalor that I fell into a precipitate (photo attached). Room No. 507, with a small window from which the wind blew mercilessly (the wind was 37 km/h in the first days of rest) overlooking the construction site, very old, with terrible plumbing, cracked mirrors, a collapsed ceiling, etc. My husband went down to the reception desk with a request to change the room, of course they refused. Seeing my condition, my husband came down for the second time and immediately said that he was ready to pay, he was immediately given a price list where room replacement costs from 40 to 150 cu. (depends on the King tut hotel or relocation to Sphinx), paid 100 cu. and lo and behold, the room was immediately found in the Sphinx. The room was 2209 (photo attached), much better, but still it's not 5* as this hotel is positioned. The bed for the child was delivered immediately, but give everyone a buck, they stand right there and wait. There is a kettle in the room, but they do not put tea and coffee (for what it costs is not clear), 1.5 liters of water per day. The safe is free of charge. The shower gel and shampoo are good, you can not carry your own, the soap is lumpy. The shower is only on top, it will not work to wash a separate part of the body, only the whole one. It's very uncomfortable with a child. The room is clean enough, except for the closet (there were very dusty shelves inside), towels (changed every day) and white bed linen (never changed in 10 nights). We extended the room until 17.00 on the day of departure for 20 cu.
Territory: The King Here and the Sphinx are a single hotel, everything is common and entertainment, and restaurants. The territory is not large, with 3 hotel buildings, several swimming pools (always clean), a heated water park (4 slides for adults and 2 small ones), 2 playgrounds, poor monkeys and dogs in cages (heart breaks), shops, a clinic, a beauty salon, sightseeing tours (we took 2 excursions everything is good and for the price norms – calmly bargain), it seems there is a fitness room, not much greenery, a hammock and a swing on the beach, the territory is clean, they are watching.
Beach: 2 beaches, both good, there were enough sun beds. 1 – the pier is immediately deep and there are fish (of course not like in Charm, but you can swim with a mask a couple of times), 2 – with a gentle approach, convenient for children, but too many stones, you can endure or carry corals.
Bars and food: 3 restaurants (1 a la carte Chinese (very decent), 2 - Swiss table, no snacks between meals, if you skip lunch, for example, you will be hungry before dinner; several bars (in the lobby, on the beach 2 (one paid), sunset bar on Fridays for 5 units, the sports bar and the aqua bar did not work. The alcohol is bad, we were in Egypt 3 times and this time I didn't drink cocktails at all, the beer is terrible, the wine seems to be more or less, but I tried it 1 time. Everyone buys Stella Artois beer for 2 units. Everything is fine with food, without a lot of variety, but you won't be hungry. Ice cream is served at the beach bar from 13.00 to 15.00, but it often ended earlier and they give microscopic portions, if you ask for more, then they look like you're taking them personally. Juices are often diluted, I saw with my own eyes how water was poured into a bottle of gin at the beach bar, they do not hide at all.
Entertainment: table tennis and billiards are free in the sports bar, disco every day, animation as everywhere, in principle, there is enough entertainment. For a show with a cobra on Tuesdays, pay 5 USD (did not go). You can ride a camel along the beach, but I don't know the cost.
The weather in March: 26-30 degrees, strong winds, burned for the first time, although smeared with protective creams, you need to be careful, the sea is 22-23 cold, only a couple of days it was warmer and then it was already comfortable to swim.
Service: deserves separate words. The motto is "Don't mess around without money." You have to pay for everything: cleaning is a dollar (but this is normal, we always tip the cleaners), if you don't give a dollar in bars, then they will look like a wolf and even make restrictions on drinking (I saw and heard more than once how they asked for the room number and tried to put a stop, while people were not drunk, and they are quite adequate), there is a paid animation. At first, I had to complain about the staff (the towel dispenser), boorish conversations and answers with disdain. On the last day of rest on the beach, there was a terrible situation: a woman smoked a hookah bought on the territory, she began to shake and vomit, lost consciousness, the doctor from the clinic of course did nothing (drive the money first), through the insurance she got to the hospital with poisoning (diagnosed in the hospital). The hookah man quickly came running while she was shaking all over, and took the hookah away, changed the tobacco, like he was doing well. The police came in the evening.
This is the first hotel we will not return to.

I have been vacationing in this hotel for three years in a row. Very pleased. It is located in the center, which is convenient to go out for a walk, shopping, Last time I arrived in August 2023. The food has become even tastier, like homemade, a wonderful entry into the sea, there are always enough sunbeds, even when the hotel is full, there are free ones, a huge hello to Olesya, which will solve all the questions that arise. On the territory there is a water park with a warm pool in the winter season, my children can not get out of there.The hotel is not big, but I am very comfortable. Everything is nearby and in place. There is a restaurant on the beach for food, they give ice cream for lunch, two restorons and ala cards for dinner. Not that you won't stay hungry, you'll bring a couple of extra ones home with you. According to alco, as in all of Egypt, it is local.

Spinx and King tut are one hotel with different buildings. The sea is super, very close, you can leave children in the frog house, looking with one eye, but to go deeper, it's better to take corals. The territory as a whole is carefully maintained. The rooms are average, but everything works. There are slides, several pools for 4+.
And now the game)))
Bar with free beer 15%)))) it is impossible to drink. Normal beer is $2- $3. There is a paid private bar that offers an excellent hookah $ 8 at any time from morning to night, smoothies $ 3, fruit, alcohol, beer $ 2- $ 3. Change is often not given, take the goods immediately.
There is a mini zoo, a Playground.
In the evening, a sociable guy offers a ride on children's cars, $ 4 for 15 minutes.
Animation for three with a minus, especially for children. There is no minidiscoe, the songs are not prepared, huge pauses, the DJ leaves and talks on the phone, they start and finish at the wrong time.
The music on the beach at the frog house screams from morning to evening, there is no other way to say.
2 out of 3 administrators in the lobby are none, they can simply leave without giving an answer, or start a conversation with another, or just go to the phone. The rest of the staff is generally friendly.
Another of the disadvantages is that there are many places where wheelchair movement is not provided.

We had a rest in September, a good hotel. The food is also normal, but the pastry chef is probably 5-digit. Cakes cakes are generally wow. There were some delicious ones in Turkey. The sea is gorgeous, the animation is great. I don't understand what the people are complaining about. Our company was the friendship of peoples. Russians, Bashkirs, Tatars, Belarusians, Poles and even from Lviv. Thank you Egypt, thank you Kin-Tut.!

It was for the New Year 2024.
Pros - a budget option, close to the city center, by taxi to any point in fact 15 minutes maximum, you can always walk everywhere, which is an important plus for me, because just lying on the beach is boring.
A good entrance to the sea suited me. Pleasant territory of its own.
Cons - simple rooms, stupid design, but it's like that everywhere, apparently, for that kind of money. The animation is terrible (but I wasn't interested in it). The food is simple and monotonous (but all the restaurants are nearby).
Good Internet is only available at the reception and in some buildings it cannot be configured in any way. I ended up buying an Internet mobile separately (this needs to be taken into account)

We had a rest from March 11-22, 2024, we arrived at the hotel for the second time, we like everything, the food is varied, fish, meat, but rice is a fairy tale!!! Fruits, vegetables are always available, there are a lot of sweets, there were delicious donuts for breakfast! The room, as they say, is tired, but clean, we had a family room with a sea view. The sea is what we come here for, we've been swimming all day!!!! Impressions.... We will definitely come back!!!!

Convenient location. 2 beaches: one sandy is very popular with children, the second beach with reefs is something to see.
The food is delicious and varied. The best animation I've seen.

We visited this hotel in January 2024. In general, we had a good rest. We are not very picky and understood about what level of the hotel we were going to. The rooms are relatively clean, but the bathroom could have been cleaned better. The cuisine is sparse compared to Turkey. Maybe this is the norm in all of Egypt, we just have nothing to compare it with, since this was the first trip to Egypt. The animation is good, the beach in winter is the best, it was closed from the wind and it was comfortable to sunbathe. In general, the hotel left positive emotions after the rest.

Nice hotel. 20 min drive from the airport. Nutrition is generally not bad. We visited Chinese and Italian restaurants, and we liked everything there. There is a reef on the beach, there are many different fish and there is even a moray eel. Locals walk on the beach and offer their services. There is Natasha from the Optimist diving club, I advise you to take sea excursions from her. Animation sucks, maybe it's normal for children, but for adults they don't do anything, they just take pictures of the work done (I put together a volleyball team myself, and this main animator just quietly came and started taking pictures, like he organized everything...in general, cunning Arabs in one word) For the first time, I did not regret choosing this hotel

I liked the attitude of the staff, we turned to the manager with any question. Many thanks to him for his hospitality and help. All the staff does their job perfectly. Great location. Everything is great! A large green well-kept area, lots of flowers. The hotel has its own beach right there with a reef, there are always a lot of free sun beds, umbrellas, beach towels, lifeguards work at any time. The water is warm and clear. There are bars on the beach to take drinks and snacks. There are shops to buy oils, bathing accessories, clothes, etc. They offer many interesting excursions. Animators work every day. The leaders organize national holidays.The menu is not that wide, but they cook delicious, always fresh, in the morning, on request, they immediately bake hot pancakes, omelets, pasta in the afternoon, always grilled in the evening.Lots of desserts, pastries, delicious soups. The waiters are always attentive and serve very politely.The room was cleaned every day, new toiletries, water were put in, and bizarre figures were built from towels.The refrigerator and air conditioning worked well in the room, which is important. There is a TV, but we didn't have time to watch it. The mattresses are dense, not trampled, and it is comfortable to sleep. At first, the modest furniture was a little confused, but we quickly stopped paying attention to it - that's not what we came for.You can optionally order a taxi, they will help you pack your things. Dry rations are provided on request if you are going on an excursion.The hotel is quiet, calm, wonderful lighting in the evening.

I put 3 stars, since the hotel does not pull for 4 for the following reasons: there are a lot of flaws in the room in the form of a broken phone and a dirty bedspread, for example. I often forget to leave toilet paper, a bottle of water or a towel when cleaning. After calling the reception, it is unlikely that you will do this in the near future, but after 4 calls and several hours, yes. Otherwise, everything is great, friendly staff, beautiful territory!

The rooms correspond to the price-quality, the territory of the hotel, the beach is fat +, there is a coral reef, with its marine inhabitants, I do not advise you to go here without a mask, I put +++ fatty pluses, of the minuses, the buffet is all business, baked vegetables, soups, fish is delicious, but everything about raw sausage products is huge a fat minus, like fruit, bananas are green tasteless, I think the grass is tastier, bananas are brought to us from Ecuador forage and then they are delicious, tangerines are sour, I won't even talk about melon ..., there are a lot of delicious cakes of all kinds, this is the only small plus. And yes, I also wanted to add this to the hotel, it has nothing to do with it, like a Muslim country, Arabs live, everyone believes in Allah without exception, but they try to deceive at every step, you order a taxi at the same price (for example, $ 7 is 700r) they come and start to finish $ 15, they say that check-in and check-out to the hotel is paid, so what if someone goes without a transfer, I advise you to go a little beyond the territory of the airports to call a taxi and back that you dropped off without stopping at the airport, if you are going on an excursion, be ready everywhere toilets are paid $ 2, stock up on a few half dollars of water for an excursion, if you are traveling with a large company, they will feed you for free, but they will give you $ 2 and a half of water for a fee also, do not forget to take an additional $ 3-5 after the tour, the guide will beg him for a tip, the accompanying person for a tip and the driver of the bus for a tip too.
