While it can still be considered a budget, if the room stock is updated, it will become more expensive, those who care about the room may not like it, the food gets boring, not very tasty, as everywhere in Hurghada. Multinationality. There weren't many children in September, but there were. Five stars only for the fact that for the first time I rest 5-10 meters from both the sea and the lagoon. It was wonderful for me.
There are also entertainment programs every evening, contests if you like that ...
Almost all the staff speaks a little Russian.
We went to Cairo, it took a very long time to get there and back for at least 10 hours, the bus is extremely inconvenient, if this is your dream to see the pyramids, go ahead, you will survive everything, but if you are not so interested, then it is better not to torment yourself... Marussia 🔥
There are many disadvantages, but they are solved, and all the disadvantages are covered, the convenient location of the hotel, the most beautiful sea. Read more: they were brought to the hotel at 1:00 a.m., minus one day for the flight. The hotels were settled quickly, but they did not give money so the room turned out to be in the main building, above the stage where all the onimations take place, but this was not very upsetting, because everything ends at 23:00.also, upon arrival, there was nothing in the room, namely not a single towel, napkins and toilet paper, tea accessories, and we were not offered an evening dinner, such is the concept of the hotel. And this concept is spread out upon leaving the hotel, at 12 :00 they are evicted from the room and everything is reset to the flesh of water and food, only at their own expense, while waiting for the autobus to the airport. Let's continue further, the problems with the missing accessories were solved only at noon, although at night and in the morning all this was voiced at the reception. Basically, the rest of the hotel is built with dignity. The sea around the hotel is excellent, clean, transparent, lots of different fish, moray eels, there are even large shells with molusks. The interior of the hotel has its own marine lagoon, which is fenced off by a net from sharks. Animations take place on the beach near the lagoon, and in the evening there are various concerts.The room stock in the hotel is old, but they look after it and immediately fix the problems. It is very difficult to change the room. When buying a tour, it is better to buy standard rooms, they are located in the first large hotel and around the lagoon and the sea and a large territory, and premium rooms are located next to a changing territory, and do not differ from the standard in any way, even worse, and many asked them to move to the standard. The food is standard as in four hotels, fruits according to the season, they cooked well, but a lot of people, no one bothered anyone. At 12 :00 they give ice cream and have a snack. The alcohol is not very good locally produced. The beer was on tap and bottled locally. Drinks like jupi, but there is bottled fanta, cola and sprite.It's a gorgeous killer aqua park, but it's located across the street, through a tunnel and at the end of all buildings.but the adrenaline is pumping. There were also water slides in the hotel. there are a lot of souvenir shops near the hotel. In general, the rest was a success when we threw out all the negativity.tour operators have expensive excursions. But they are great, they are always in touch at any time of the day and ready to help in everything. We did not regret choosing this hotel, and despite the fact that there were also a lot of children, there was no discomfort, no one bothered anyone, even the local population, which was also very much. In conclusion, I want to say, relax with pleasure, have a good rest. The hotel corresponds to its 4 stars.
1. Number. Initially, when buying the tour, we paid 5k extra for a room with a sea view. Well, there were no questions about the view at all, our money was not spent in vain. Wonderful sea views, the sunsets are amazing, you feel like you're in paradise. Minus is a strong wind (according to the locals, we were hit by some kind of cyclone). The room itself is old, but you can spend the night and wash up. The furniture from my grandmother's years seems to have fallen off somewhere, the balcony is barely closing, the air conditioner is broken. The cleaner is just a sweetheart, always smiling and joking, cleans perfectly, all the time he asked us whether we need to clean up or not))
Hotel. There are also a lot of shabby places, but they repaired the tiles at the main stage when we were there, and they are trying to repair something. A nice hotel, there is a newly built building, which means that the restoration of the entire hotel is possible, and it will become more expensive for the price) All three hotels will be at your disposal, this is the largest, palm bar right in the pool, and miret slides. The food was more varied in ours, but there were more people, and the queues were normal. We had lunch a couple of times in miret, few people and minimal food.
Animation. The animation guys are great, you can chat with all Russian speakers about anything, everyone is invited to the club in the evening, we didn't go (( There are some movements all day, yoga, bocce, dancing, exercises in the sea, volleyball. In the evening at 8 or 9 children's animation, an hour later adult animation. Oriental dances, local dances, fireshows, Miss and Mr. hotel, quiz shows and live music. The presenter is very funny, his stomach hurt from laughing)) We participated in a musical quiz and won a bottle of sambuca) Every Thursday I have a foam party.
Food. In principle, we do not like this hotel food, either here or in Turkey, at the end of the holiday it is already difficult to eat this food, either there are some spices there, or we overeat and no longer fit) And so it was, bread rolls of all kinds, cheese and regular and cottage cheese, soy sausage, sausages, vegetables and all kinds of salads, side dish- rice, potatoes, pasta, vegetables like broccoli, French fries. There are soups, hot fish, fish in batter, chicken, beef, seafood once. The pies were so-so, but we took everything and everyone liked it, we were so-so)) Fruits guava, melon, orange, grapefruit, dates. There is a children's menu. Besides the restaurant, there were burgers and French fries on the beach, and ice cream at the bar.
Alcohol. There are many bars, anywhere, but not everywhere you get drunk) We liked it better in the paid bar in the hotel itself, you can buy beer in a bottle, I took cocktails, the bartender does it beautifully and it's delicious, at least you get drunk with him)) And so in ordinary bars, alcohol is local, it's hard to get drunk with it, at least half dilute it, you still run to the bar every 10 minutes, because it's not enough)
A good hotel, it fully responds to its 4*. The food is good, although the restaurant is small, but if you go a little later, closer to closing, it is quite free. The room is old, but everything works and is cleaned cleanly. The location of the hotel is wonderful, the city is nearby, the sea is clean, corals and fish are also available. Now about what I didn't like. The descent into the sea by ladders, and they are in a disgusting state, there are no changing cabins at all, the shower is only on the inner lagoon. The porters stand out from the staff: they are outrageously arrogant, they do not ask for the delivery of a suitcase to the room, but they demand 5 bucks. Overall, the impression is quite good.
Hello everyone We had a family vacation at this hotel from 07/21/2024 to 08/01/2024. We were settled in the left wing, room 6100 with a view of the lagoon! The view from the room is gorgeous!
The room stock, of course, is old: the furniture looks medieval, the air conditioning is noisy, there is a refrigerator, a safe, a hairdryer, a TV, a kettle with mugs in the room. There is no iron in the room! Bad. Everything worked in our room, there were no problems.
Internet is free only at the reception.
Now for nutrition. The food is monotonous, but you won't stay hungry. Only beef and chicken are made of meat! There are fish. Garnish with rice (white, yellow, fried), pasta in different variations, French fries. For lunch, we ate soups, we liked them. For breakfast, scrambled eggs, pancakes, muesli, yoghurts and many others. Pizza for dinner. A variety of drinks, beer, wine, cocktails, tea and coffee, sweets. The fruits made us a little sad. There were only melons, oranges, pears and dates. The watermelon was given only once. There are always long queues in the main restaurant and there are no empty tables, it is better to come 1-1.5 after opening. And it's best to go to the restaurant on the second floor to eat. There are no queues, there is no need to look for a table and the view from the windows is gorgeous - on the sea! That's what we did at lunch. There are 4 Ala-kart restaurants. We really liked the Asian one.
The location of the hotel itself is just super - on the one hand a windless lagoon, on the other a beautiful, clean, transparent sea with fish and corals. We watched two big beautiful fish every day in the lagoon, as well as a whole family of crabs. It is better to occupy sun beds until 8.00. There are bars on the beaches with free drinks, cocktails, ice cream and light snacks.
The territory of the hotel is huge, you can also use two more hotels for free. There is a mini water park on the territory of the third hotel. You can get to it through the second hotel by going through an underground passage.
There is an animation every day. We really enjoyed the Fire show!
In general, I will say this: for those who care about the sea, the sun and walks, a budget hotel, then you are here. If you are traveling primarily for high-quality service, then a lot of things can upset you.
We flew to the sea, sunbathing and swimming. The hotel is budget-friendly and it did not disappoint us for its cost. Where else can you see corals for free in your own hotel?!

Excellent hotel, decent rooms, clean, snow-white linen, soft mattresses. Friendly, friendly staff, there are enough sun beds, there are several places to enter the sea: the entrance is sand. Warm pools. Undiluted alcohol, beer is poured from bottles. Cocktails in plastic cups, who don't drink a lot, are generally fine, but you can always take a supplement)).
Food: very tasty, wide variety. Meat, chicken, fish every day. Cola, sprite is not a jury. We are very happy with the rest, the animation, the colors of the show. We'll come back more than once
We had a rest in September 2024.The hotel is old, of course, but the atmosphere there is super. The sea is 5 steps from the room, food without frills, animation, disco will not be boring. In general, for this money, norm!
The hotel itself is very old:
- the furniture is all dead
- the watering can was in some kind of mold in the bathroom
- the bed linen is old
Originally it was on the ground floor with a view of the lagoon. People often go there in the evenings too; you can hear everything. There is no sound insulation. It's hard to sleep.
The next day we moved to another room: they also offered some kind of fucked up. One is scarier than the other: either next to the elevator, or from the balcony to the stage; where animation for children takes place in the evenings; it is impossible to sleep. It feels like the guy at the reception was bullying us. He offered not better, but worse.
We moved into more or less normal rooms (everything is the same in terms of furniture, the bathroom and the room itself are just cleaner), so the walls are so thin that we heard the neighbors having sex for two nights.
At night, the door to the balcony was opened somehow, so it was impossible to get rid of the wind. I had to close the balcony. The room is stuffy. There were also times when it was pulled from the balcony either by someone's smoking, or by some kind of sewer.
The food is tasteless. Alcohol is of very low quality.
There were 2 restaurants to choose from: Italian even more or less; although it is difficult to call it Italian. It took a long time for the Asian restaurant to bring us what we ordered. They didn't bring that at all. So also, according to the stated options in the menu, not everything converged there. Again, it's tasteless.
Wi-Fi is paid!!! There is a free Wi-Fi at the reception. Bitch, I've never connected, how many times I've tried. The reception referred to a lot of people in the lobby trying to connect, so the connection fails. Bullshit
After Moscow Time, of course, all these inconveniences are just a blow, wild stress.
Another friend of mine dived in the lagoon with a mask to see this shark net. Yes, there is one. But not to the bottom. There is a decent gap where, in fact, any shark can swim.
The service is also average. I can say that only the excursions from the tour operator Biblioglobus were very cool. And the guides are top.
The hotel itself is just one solid minus.
From the good that I will note (because of this, I did not put a unit):
- a large area
- in the lagoon, the water is clear and of a fabulous blue color.
- on the other side of the lagoon - access to the sea and the presence of its own reef; where you can swim; fish to see. Just like in aquaurim. And its own first line. This is a big plus; but it is, in fact, nature and a good location.
Everything else that relates to the hotel itself is tin. I do not recommend it.
To be honest, I don't even know where to start...
we arrived at the hotel on September 17th at 8 a.m. The first impression in appearance was quite positive: a huge territory, a beautiful lobby
According to the check-in time, we were supposed to have at 14.00, and we were able to get the bracelets only at 10.30. At the same time, our things were just in a corner at the entrance to the hotel, there was no separate storage room or room (i.e. anyone could come up to pick up other people's things). Fortunately, we were able to check in earlier and then only because we paid $20 to the staff
They settled us in the penultimate building with a view of the bay and the sea itself, and brought our suitcases to the room. But then they immediately started asking about chocolate, whether we have it or not. Initially, we thought that we were interested in whether there was chocolate in the mini-bar, but as it turned out later, the man who brought the suitcase asked for a tip in this way (in Egypt they love Russian chocolate very much, because the same chocolates in their store are worse in quality)
After checking in, we went to lunch, where the food did not please us (we thought we just fell under such a day, but no)
There was a show program in the evening, which seemed quite bright
The next day we had a meeting with the hotel guide, who told us about our accommodation, insurance and excursions, saying that his excursions were cheaper, in fact, again, it turned out not to be so.
We stayed at this hotel for 10 nights, which seemed a very long time, many factors contributed to this
1. Terrible room cleaning. For 10 nights, we have never had our bed linen changed (or to be more precise, it was changed only 1 time on one of the two beds after 3 days of swearing)
2. The food is monotonous, nothing changes at all. One of the advantages is a wonderful omelet for breakfast and 1 good dish for dinner (different every day). They gave pancakes for breakfast every day, which were not baked at all. There is no seafood - from the word at all - it was very upset
3. There are a lot of crows on the territory that shit on things on the balcony, steal things from sun beds and scatter garbage
4. A dirty bay, despite the fact that it is cleaned (cups float, vegetables - what struck me the most)
5. Bad monotonous animation that lasts less than an hour in the evening (from 20.00 to 21.00 for children, from 21.00 to 22.00 for adults, but in fact only 30 minutes of activity out of this time). At the same time, the animators go and invite everyone to the disco at 23.00 with departure from the hotel for $ 15, where alcohol is paid
6. Alcohol in bars is terrible + they still sell it
7. All the best benefits to the Arabs, an extra piece, a delicious cocktail, etc., the rest are rude, they say they will not give more, etc. But if you leave a tip, then you immediately become their "brother"
8. A huge area that is not used for its intended purpose
9. Towels can be received only in the morning, and handed over only in the evening
10. The key to the room in the form of a card that you don't know where to put when you go to the sea
11. The staff does not know Russian and English well (except for animators). The reception does not understand at all when you talk to them in these languages. How to hire people who do not know English (especially at the reception)
12. Wi-fi in the lobby works disgusting, but it is not available anywhere else or for a fee, so you need to buy an exorbitantly expensive SIM card or a personal router on site. I do not recommend buying a SIM card on the territory of the hotel, where the store is located. The seller shows a lot of positive reviews, but in fact it is a deception. We bought a SIM card for 40 GB of Internet from him, we ran out of it for 19 GB
13. As for the ala-card restaurants, we only managed to go to an Italian restaurant. Overall it was not bad, but the next day we were served exactly the same food in the dining room
14. When checking out of the hotel, the bracelets are immediately cut off. Our departure was at 21.00, and departure from the hotel at 17.00. They did not let us go to lunch without a bracelet, they said that it was only for a fee. For comparison, when meeting other vacationers at the airport, everyone was wearing bracelets and, accordingly, enjoyed all the benefits of their hotel before leaving for the airport
In general, unfortunately, the hotel has greatly spoiled the rest. The final score is 3 out of 10
I would like to say a special thank you only to the animators Ilya, Rinata, Nikita and Ekaterina, as well as the bartender Taha. Did you somehow manage to brighten up our vacation
I don't understand why this hotel has a 4.9 rating because I spent 9 days of rest in jail.The only thing that saved this hotel was the excursions that we paid for additionally
The lagoon is cool, no doubt (perhaps that's the end of the pros)
The food is disgusting, I spent the last days of my vacation in a room with a temperature of 39 and poisoning. Alcohol tastes terrible, Whiskey tastes like wormwood, and you can't drink it.
The rooms are ruined, the floors are not cleaned, the glasses are broken, the kettles are full of holes, the water is pouring out of them, and they are still terribly dirty
Wi-Fi is paid and it doesn't work very well ($22 for 7 days)
There is no entertainment except swimming and relaxing on the beach.
Cards are issued: a room key card and a card for issuing towels to the beach
So, an interesting story happened.…
We went to the beach , took towels , and of course they took the cards for them.
We put these towels on the beach lounger, put our things on it and went swimming. After about 20 minutes we return , there are no towels , we left our belongings and phones , thank you
On the trail.We have a flight on the day and we went to rent a room. We hand over the cards and they ask us "Where are the towel cards?" (Since there are no towels, we were not given any cards) We start explaining to them that someone stole our towels on the beach and, accordingly, they did not give us the cards from them. They explained where , when, and at what time . We discussed something at the reception and were told, "We'll have to pay for the cards , one card is $8(2 towels were stolen from us)"
Of course, we're blown away because it's not our fault and why should we pay for it. They demanded to watch the cameras of the moment when they were stolen from us. We looked at it and it turned out that they were tourists, but in the end they still told us "Either cards or 16 dollars"
No matter how sweet everything was in this hotel, but at the end of the rest they spoiled their opinion of themselves even worse.
If you think this is going to happen to you, then you shouldn't. As it turns out, these Egyptians really like to frame tourists so that they pay extra.
So it's better not to skimp and do not take this hotel, even if it is so beautiful in the pictures. Save your stomach and your wallet.
You won't find the most honest review here anymore .
I gave 1 star for the lagoon, it's really beautiful, but that's not the only reason to pay a lot of money for it.There are many such beautiful lagoons😊
I hope you have read this review to the end, this will save your vacation.
The main room stock is old, but the furniture is sturdy made of thick wood. The food is quite decent for 4. I liked everything about the service, the attitude is good. The beach, thanks to several exits to the sea, is sufficient for swimming and if stranded to see corals (of course there are hotels where there are more of them). The cleanliness is 4, but they were cleaned non-stop.
It's not a bad hotel, I'd like to come back again. The rooms are old, but the bed linen is clean, cleaning every day. In terms of food, do not expect frills, but you will not stay hungry, there is always something to choose (meat, fish, chicken every day).
I liked the location the most. Our building had a lagoon up to 5 meters deep on one side and the sea on the other side. There is a place to swim with a mask.
For me, it is perfect for holidays with children.
Old, but wooden(!) furniture, doors, windows.Inconvenient sockets (location, number). The rooms around the water park\scenes are not for relaxing (music). That's it! This is solved easily! I have an extension cord with three sockets with me for a couple of meters, and it's easy to change the number. Pros: if the wind blows, swim in the lagoon (there is sea water and a shark net). At the tip, go up the steps and your reef is at your service! There is also a diving center. The territory, including all THREE hotels, is huge! There is a decent water park in the upper hotel, and an underground passage under the road to the beach. The central restaurant is loaded-go to another one! The staff is like bees working day and night. Nearby there are shops, a Marina (a fashionable promenade and excursions on a bathyscaphe boat), an Orthodox church and a mosque (where they let you see)... The hotel allows you not to meet with an unpleasant person for a week (!) without harming yourself. The thickness of the walls allows you not to notice who lives next to you and not to use the air conditioner in the evenings. I will definitely come back at the first opportunity!
We stayed at this hotel for 11 days, from January 9-19. A one-time hotel. Old rooms, plastic, cheap dishes. The staff doesn't move at all, they're lazy and arrogant. There is no Internet in the hotel, the lobby is very bad, it connects - and that's it. Sim card was bought at the airport - vodafone operator, $ 23/ 70gb/40+30+5 as a gift, it was enough for all 11 days. But, this is not about the hotel, just useful information for tourists who will have a hotel in the 21st century without the Internet) The food is like everywhere else, varied, you will find your own taste, you will not be hungry. Russian Russian is not spoken by all the staff in the lobby, and this is due to the hotel's 80-90% Russian workload, just a few broken words and that's it. And most importantly, on the day of departure, your bracelet will be cut off, at 12:00 if you rent out the room, and you will stop using "all the benefits" of the hotel, you will sit and wait for your evening check-out if you do not extend the room. I do not recommend the hotel. It's better to pay a little more and choose a better one, but it's better to have hotels there in one. We have been to Egypt many, many times. And only this hotel has ruined the whole attitude towards Egypt in general.

October 31, 2024
We stayed at the hotel for 10 days in September.
Do not expect high-quality cleaning and cool rooms, this is not the case here, the hotel territory is cool, the lagoon flowing into the sea looks beautiful, the sea is two steps away from both sides
The buffet is simple, almost every day the menu does not change, everything is the same, only cooked in different ways.
The staff asks for dollars for everything, should I bring a cocktail? Bro, give me one dollar🤦🏻♀️
Check out of the rooms at 12 o'clock, the transfer from the hotel was at 19:30, as soon as our bracelets were removed at 12, we were not allowed to go anywhere, we could not eat, unlimited cocktails were not allowed, you could only be on the beach and in the lobby
would not come back again, of all I liked only the sea.
By the way, the towels were not changed and the bed linen was not changed either, the floors were not washed in the room until you say so and leave the dollars
We paid 250k for all the fun
The norm. There is a private bay. A small sandy beach. There is a reef. But it was very windy in November. A lot of people. Because of this, you need to take sun loungers in advance and there are queues in the restaurant.
Lovely room and the view from the window is gorgeous))) but the snoring coming from the next room is just terrible, there was a door in our room that leads to the next room, it was latched, but everything was audible, it felt like we weren't sleeping alone because the neighbors were busy until morning)!!! But in general, the hotel is cool and the staff is cool , and the buffet is great !) everything is cool except for this one) there are organizers of entertainment at sea on the territory of the hotel, we were satisfied)
It's a very cool place. The rest was a success. Daily cleaning, yu. The food is very acceptable. often fish , crabs . Lots of vegetables. The sea is clear) I would like to return. But I also want to check out other places)
We've been to Egypt many times, but I'm not going to this particular hotel anymore. It feels like I've been to Anapa in the worst of times. You can't step between the sun beds on the beach! They lie on top of each other. In the restaurant (more like canteens) endless queues. Dishes, so it's generally trash! There 's nowhere to pour the tea . Soft plastic cups of 100 grams or even paper cups . And a lot more, I just don't want to write. But the price was like flying to Tai . Probably next time I'll give preference to the second option.
Without further ado: just a great hotel! The location is close to the main mosque of the city, the fish market and the Marina.
The room corresponded to the stated one, without a single breakdown: soft beds, a large mirror, powerful pressure of both cold and hot water, the view from the window is just a fairy tale! Yes, the furniture is a bit retro, but there is a special charm in it)) We felt like the heroes of the TV series "Clone"😄 By the way, we didn't pay anyone and didn't ask for anything - we immediately settled into a room with a view of the pool (a piece of the sea is visible from it). Sometimes a chocolate bar was left for cleaning, sometimes a dollar, sometimes nothing at all - it was always equally good to be clean! And water, clean towels, new shampoos were always delivered.
The food is varied, fresh vegetables and fruits for every meal, there is always plenty of meat - chicken and beef, a large selection of baked goods. Seafood at 4* in Egypt is not expected at all, so there are zero complaints! Desserts are only very much for an amateur, but Egypt is not famous for its sweets) There are always places in the restaurant, the waiters quickly take away the dirty and bring something on request. The food in the trays is never lying at the bottom: they report very quickly so that everything is in abundance. Almost every evening, dinner is dedicated to one of the cuisines of the peoples of the world, Friday is the brightest in this sense, because the meal is preceded by playing national instruments, songs, dances - this is an evening of Egyptian cuisine! It's a whole holiday! Those who stay at the hotel for more than a week are entitled to two free a la carte dinners. There are 4 such restaurants in a separate complex, we visited the fish and Asian ones. Overall, we are satisfied)
We are especially pleased with the hotel staff! Everyone is very responsive, friendly - it is clear that people who love people work here! In the restaurant, after eating, I just wanted to thank every employee, so everyone tries to make the rest pleasant. No one looked at us askance, even if I was the only one, a woman, asking for alcohol at the bar. We also did not observe rudeness on anyone's part.
Animation is very important for our aara, so that it is almost like in a children's camp)))) Yoga, exercise, aqua aerobics, volleyball, bocce and many dances - everywhere you are welcome, everywhere you are expected, everywhere you are supported. There is no time to be bored! Especially when every day there is some kind of party: sometimes foam, then Hawaiian, then with giant dolls, then a soloist sings in the middle of the day, then a circus performer performs... In the evening, as a rule, an even more colorful show awaits! For example, a fakir show or a fireshow. There were also contests like miss or Mr. hotel, dance flash mobs until the guests got tired😁
And all this in a clean, well-maintained area with its own lagoon and a small coral reef. You can explore the richest underwater world of the Red Sea without leaving the hotel! And if the weather wasn't good, then instead of the sea, you could flop in the pool: it's heated (even when it's hot).
Thank you so much for a wonderful vacation, for the first visit to Egypt of everyone involved in Sunny Days El Palacio🥰
We stayed at this hotel at the end of April 2024. A large area, a lot of beach space due to the lagoon. There were always enough sun beds, although the hotel is completely full. Everything in the rooms is old, but it worked. What did not suit us, we were changed immediately upon check-in. The staff is nice, polite, helpful. However, they left a dollar for everyone, both the cleaner, the bartender on the beach and the administrator in the restaurant. But there were no problems, the room was clean, there was always water, the cocktails were delicious, and the dinner table was always free. It seems to me that as you treat people, so they treat you. The food is simple, of course, but it's also a four. But everything was delicious. We were completely satisfied with the hotel, for its price.
An excellent 4* hotel, on the 1st line, with a unique "personal" lagoon and well-built buildings around it. You can swim everywhere - both in the sea and in the lagoon. The lagoon is deep and there is less wind, you can arrange real swimming training. We had a room in the left building with only a view of the sea, spacious, the furniture was a bit old, but everything worked. The food is good - for every taste. Poultry, meat, fish every day, fresh vegetables and citrus bowls, wine of very good quality. Yoghurts, omelets, and pastries helped out in the mornings. It is better to take tea instead of coffee. Good coffee is only served in bars.
The animation is very good, including live concerts and belly dancing. The staff is friendly, they speak English and a little Russian. The contingent - 50% - Russians, 50% - all the rest, especially English, German, Italian, Polish and Chinese were often heard.
This is a resort that includes two other smaller hotels. In the second section there is a nice bay and a more cozy pool with a bar, and in the third on the 2nd line there is a good water park. We did not take excursions at the hotel, we took them directly from an Egyptian travel agency, as a result we saved at least $ 150.
Great hotel. I recommend it for a relaxing and active holiday. In the evening, there is always a show and animation at a high level. Due to the large territory, we had to walk 10 thousand steps a day, which was useful for outdoor activities. The hotel complex has an inner street with a mini market, which has a big plus. There are several beaches on the territory of the hotel, both for children's swimming and an excellent reef.
We counted the days until the end of the vacation!
Minuses:
SHEZLOGS. They are not there, people occupy themselves with their belongings from 4 a.m. and leave, while they may not come at all during the day. At 8 a.m., you'll go through everything and you won't find any. People are lying on rocks, sitting on chairs. If you're lucky, you'll find a pear chair.
staff. He won't lift a finger without money. The tariff starts from $5. They are rude, ignored. If you are not a brutal man, but a woman from 16 to 60, the hotel staff from the toilet cleaner to the management will constantly send greasy compliments to your address. THIS IS THE NORM IN THIS HOTEL. They even saw how they accost girls about 15 years old.
RESTAURANTS. Wild queues, no matter what time you arrive, even at the beginning of breakfast / lunch / dinner, even at the end. You can stand for 10-15 minutes, then look for a table or wait until it is free.
ALCOHOL, BARS. Alcohol is just terrible. In beach bars, beer is poured into 150 ml cups, half of the foam at the same time. Stand in line and get only 2 in one hand.
logistics. Everything is very poorly located. You have to go somewhere all the time. There are few toilets, and they are all concentrated in one place. You can walk for 5-10 minutes, depending on where you find a chaise longue (if you find one). The same applies to bars and restaurants.
THE CONTINGENT. If you do not like to relax with our compatriots, then you are not here. People bring sunflower seeds with them (they actually bring them, they saw Russian packages) and dried fish, they consume it all on the beach, washed down with alcohol from dutifrey bottled from under the water.
ROOMS. Everything is knocked out and killed. It's very dirty. There is a cleaning service, but they will just fold the towels and make the bed. Upon check-in, black hair was found in the bed, perhaps the linen was not changed after the previous guests. They don't bring paper, you have to run and ask. The air conditioner hums so that you will not leave the feeling that you did not leave the plane. On the plus side: for $ 15 they gave a room with a sea view on the quiet side. To extend the room for 3 hours is $ 30, for comparison.
animation. It would have been better if it hadn't been at all
Of the bonuses, you can use the territory / restaurants/bars of 2 neighboring hotels. But the hotel across the street has neither the first, nor the second, nor the third. Here is the nearby Palma De Mirette a little better. There are many foreigners on vacation, there are no queues. The remaining disadvantages remain there.
Of course, there are also advantages, but they do not even cover the disadvantages by 20%. Therefore, I do not consider it necessary to list them.
In general, if all of the above does not scare you, then welcome. Personally, I will never fly to Egypt again.🤮
We stayed at the hotel for 7 days, we came to Egypt for the first time. Of course, rest cannot be compared with Turkey, there is not enough service in Egypt.
Among the advantages: sea view (for which they charged $ 20 at the reception), a water park on the territory of 3 hotels (not wow, but you can ride with pleasure), almost all the staff understands Russian, the food is passable (we really liked the barbecue and pizza), fish and corals on the beach.
Of the cons: a local beach towel was stolen (there were suspicions about the staff) and I had to pay a $ 10 fine, alcohol in the bar is just a nightmare (it tastes like detergents in general, and after drinking, I had nightmares every time. This is the first time we noticed this for ourselves, so that after alcohol there would be such an effect). There is nothing for women to do there alone, the locals, including the hotel staff, behave like wild (they look men in the eyes, and women only at their breasts). Annoying staff in terms of excursions and other things. The room is very old (as they visited the Stalin Museum). Desserts are incomprehensible, coffee is only "nescafe" (in Turkey, for example, there were normal coffee machines). The room is cleaned so-so. Security feels so-so too. There is no mini bar, only a 1.5L bottle of water.
In general, I will share my impression of Hurghada. If you are going for the first time, know that everyone will try to deceive you. Do not visit any markets with taxi drivers, they will only take you to their points with a huge margin (and we took a taxi from the hotel) and then they will name a huge price tag for the trip. Souvenirs can be bought at the Cleopatra store, as you leave the hotel immediately to the left and you will see a walk there. It is better to buy food, halva, nuts, etc. in small shops with a cash register (where prices are fixed and very pleasant). There is also a good shop called fix something there (go out from the hotel and to the right, it will be on the other side), the seller there is very good and gave us gifts) It is better to take local currency to the shops. Coral masks and slippers are cheaper to buy in the city than to bring them from Russia. It is better to take gels and shampoos with you, the ones in the room are some kind of smelly. We took excursions on the albatross website, rode quadricycles and on a bathyscaphe. I liked the excursions in general. To be honest, I was scared to walk the streets, there was garbage everywhere and locals who were constantly staring. Well, I was with a guy, so I was more or less calm, but I wouldn't risk going there alone or with a friend.
I will not list the cons , there are not a few of them , but there are also advantages . The biggest disadvantage of this hotel is that on the last day you are simply sent to 3 letters ) you are stripped of your bracelet and no one else is here and it doesn't matter how many hours you have before departure , whether you have children or not , no one just gives a shit , go hungry , the reception says that call the guide , call the guide the guide says that these are the rules of the hotel, by the way, we flew from Anextour, I also do not advise you, just to push your excursions and that's it, they don't care about you anymore. And they don't solve any problems. In general, the hotel will go, but what is happening at the last one is just terrible . They are also rude at the reception, "I know Russian better than you do," I do not recommend it.
+ a variety of food, a large hotel, the sea is nearby, plus there is a lagoon.
- everyone wants a tip, they don't even clean the room properly without a tip, so keep in mind
And so, in general , it 's fine , especially with children , it's just the right time to relax
Hello.
I give the hotel a 4 minus, and the guide a one.
I want to leave a complaint about your company's hotel guide Amra. I came to meet him with a minor child.
At this meeting, the guide does not provide any useful information for the tourist of the hotel, the tour to which he purchased. Not a word was said about the hotel, the country, the mores of the people in whose country we came to rest! On his part, there was only advertising, or rather just "sniffing" the tour. It was extremely unprofessional. I don't want to buy a ticket from such a guide. And most importantly, Amr behaved aggressively (!!!) in relation to me, when I realized that I was not interested in vouchers. Later, I heard from people who were present at this meeting that Amr also behaved extremely disrespectfully with them when they refused his tour.
His aggression was very striking! I did not spoil my vacation on the first day and did not complain at the hotel about this person, because I was afraid of revenge on his part. I realized at the meeting that Amr is not restrained in his emotions and is aggressive! Please take action against this person! Such employees should not work with people! They have no place in your organization, unless of course you value it.
I was vacationing at the Sunny Days in Palacio Hotel, Hurghada, from August 2 to 12, 2024, room 3208.
Excellent hotel, lagoon, open sea, fish, corals, everything you need for a holiday in Egypt. The hotel is very clean, constantly cleaned both in the rooms and on the territory. The food is varied, they cook well. The location is very convenient, we walked to the Old and New city, where there are many shops and cafes, there are shopping centers. I really liked this hotel, there is something to compare it with.
We had a rest at the end of January, there was a wind, but all this is bearable. The sun was shining brightly during the day and it was warm. The staff is very nice, the food is delicious, a wide variety of dishes, vegetables and fruits are plentiful, and what delicious cakes!
We had a rest with a friend at this hotel from 12/14/2023 to 12/23/2023, we are flying out today! We are very happy with our stay, the hotel is wonderful...and the territory..and the beach, and the food!!! Although this is our first time in Egypt, we really enjoyed it! We swam every day, the sea was calm, warm, no waves, there was wind sometimes, but it didn't stop us because of the lagoon that is in this hotel, we didn't feel it! The food is varied and delicious...beef, chicken, fish every day, vegetables, fruits abound, animation is good, live music was almost every day ...! The staff is always friendly! Well done, everything is great!!!
We rested from 23.10 to 01.11.2023 . Great hotel! Unexpectedly for Hurghada, a gorgeous coral reef. Lagoon with shark netting, even if the sea is stormy, you can swim in the lagoon. A variety of animated events, a lot of slides of varying complexity. Beaches for every taste! There were enough sun beds for everyone, despite the 100% load of the hotel. The food is good, there is always fish, chicken, beef, salads and side dishes are standard. I do not recommend a la carte restaurants for free so as not to spoil the mood, but for the money there are excellent restaurants, but they do not belong to the hotel, so this is not a minus.
This is the first time in my life I am writing a review. I was here 2 years ago and still does not let go of the negativity.
1. DECEIVED and brought to tears. The rooms are terrible, something is broken in each one. We changed 3 rooms. Then the air conditioner does not work, the safe, the bathroom is bent, there is no hot water and there is a kettle! In general, something is broken in all rooms. Where the kettle lid was broken in the last one. Well, we think okay, a trifle... During the eviction, they rolled a paper on us that we broke this kettle! They made me pay. The guard did not let us out of the hotel until we paid. And the bus from the tour operator refused to wait. The tour operator himself refused to solve the problem at all.
The hotel blamed everything on us, they say, why didn't you tell us when you checked in. And there is absolutely something broken everywhere!
It's a terrible shame. They brought my mother and me to tears. And we also ran out of currency, we didn't even have anything to pay with. They just kept them there by force until you paid. As a result, a kind person paid for us.
2. Not a hotel, but a hostel. Lots of people. I have to eat in time. They are not allowed to take anything out.
3. Food is terrible. It's tasteless and everything is very peppery. Of the fruits, only an orange and chopped apples in water.
We sat on the toilet a couple of times.
4. Snack food is creepy. I don't know how people eat it. We didn't take this food at all. They cook like French fries, hamburgers. At the same time, crows fly everywhere and walk on the tables where they cook. Chemical ice cream.
5. WiFi is only available in the lobby. But you are unlikely to connect, tk almost does not catch because of the HUGE number of people. At most, write something in the messenger and that's it. No photos or videos.
6. There were small advantages (for example, a boat trip), but the KETTLE changed everything!
Read all the bad comments - it's true.
Do not spare money - go to a normal hotel!
The service is terrible. The attitude of the hotel staff is terrible, consumerist. Everyone is begging for dollars for what is already included in the ticket price. The kitchen is monotonous. There are not enough deck chairs for everyone. In addition, the staff deliberately occupies deck chairs in order to sell them to those in need. The room cleaning is terrible. Sometimes, in order to get a tip, the staff intentionally does not completely clean the room, so that they are called, asked to clean, but for this you need to tip.
The hotel is wonderful, the location couldn't be better, the staff is friendly and attentive, we lived in a room with a sea view-it's a fairy tale.The furniture in the room, although not new, is quite good, everything you need is there.The food is without frills, but you definitely won't stay hungry.I definitely liked the hotel
It was the best vacation of my life! A very good hotel, excellent service and food, a huge well-maintained territory. A wonderful sea and your own coral reef - what could be better? I will strive to visit this hotel again!
We had a family vacation in July 2023.We liked everything-the gorgeous location of the hotel-its own lagoon with a net from large fish, another small lagoon "Caribbean" with white sand and corals.The food is good, varied-vegetables, meat, fish, fruits, sweets, delicious coffee from a coffee machine and ice cream in the bar. There are slides in three hotels, you can go to any one.The three-star hotel has the biggest and most interesting ones, it's not far to go. Our hotel has two restaurants for breakfast, lunch and dinner.If there are a lot of people in one, then you can go to the second floor, there are always fewer people and there are places.The hotel has ITS OWN good fish restaurant-you just need to sign up.It stands right by the sea.There is a diving center and yachts for sea trips.For a little money, you can rent a boat with a transparent bottom.They find their own companions. Upon arrival, upon request, we were given a room with a magnificent view of the Kartb lagoon-a fairy tale view.No one demanded money-grace is optional.We thanked him. The rooms are old and the furniture is the same, the room cleaning is average every day -men clean.BUT we were going to rest and didn't bother much about it.We enjoyed the sea, the sun and the hotel very much.There is a fruit shop next to the hotel-right on site, where delicious fresh mangoes, oranges and watermelons are prepared for $ 1.And very ripe, delicious and inexpensive fruits.We liked everything very much.
I liked the hotel, despite the fact that it is old.
They gave me a good room for $20.
There are a lot of people, sun beds need to be occupied at 5-6 in the morning.
There are queues in the main restaurant.
It is convenient to swim in the lagoon. The staff is friendly.
Everything is fine, but we will not go to the big hotel anymore.
The beach is good, the sea is beautiful, as well as throughout Hurghada.
I'll write down the disadvantages.
We settled in the farthest building, for an additional fee with a sea view. We waited in the room for suitcases for 40 minutes.
They didn't let us carry it ourselves. I give 2 dollars, the porter is outraged that they are not new, I say no others, then he asks for chocolate in addition to the money. It was the edge of arrogance and it was on the first day of arrival.
And these beggars everywhere, at the bar, constantly forced to buy their chemical alcohol.
Cleaning with tips so that there is no difference without them.
There are a lot of people in the dining room, mostly the local population of 80%. There are not enough places for everyone, tables are not wiped with a rag, a napkin and a fork with a knife are placed on a stained table, rarely a spoon. It's very stuffy, noisy, and you feel like you're at a train station. It is very unpleasant to want to run out of there faster. There is a walk in the nearby Palma hotel 800-900 meters away. It's a little better there. There is no relaxation to sit leisurely at dinner and lunch. We were uncomfortable. There are a lot of rooms, the territory is large, but the dining area is very small, there are tables at the exit outside, but it is very hot there is no curtain, the sun is blinding in the eyes it is impossible to sit. And yes, plastic
cups are just evil when they pour 100g beer in a bar.
and other drinks. Wine in a tetrapack.
In short, I will not go here anymore, I did not like it.
We rested in this hotel, from July 13 to July 25, 2024.not a bad hotel... the minus for us was the food was monotonous....the sea with a convenient entrance for children.interesting animation, even a fiery show was....(the child was pleased ).In this hotel, the locals also relax, well, all are friendly.....
The room has furniture that is 50 years old, the air conditioner breaks down 3 times a day, and the cleaning is terrible. There are just a lot of people, to have dinner sitting at the table you need to try very hard, someone ate even standing up. And it was for dinner every day. The food is almost the same every day. You won't stay hungry, but there's not much to choose from. It's the same problem with sun beds. After 9 a.m., finding a sunbed is a whole quest. Alcohol and drinks are poured into small disposable cups-no more than two for one bracelet, so there are always a lot of people at the bars too. Upon arrival, they settled in for almost 3 hours, and they were sent to Miret , allegedly there are no rooms here. Although we booked this one, we had to swear for a long time. The only advantage of the sea, if you go with children, is not deep, sand. Don't go there anymore!!!!
The hotel is excellent, the location is very good)The hotel staff is very friendly and helpful.I would like to express special gratitude to Tatiana, a beautiful blonde who works at the hotel and helps all guests, without exception, to solve issues of any complexity) The rooms are hardly modern, but you can stay in them for 10 days, imagining the Egyptian flavor.All the negative nuances are overshadowed by a beautiful beach and a wonderful sea) Animators work tirelessly)
And we liked it here, we came for the second time. The sea is great, but the service is not very good. Of the serious disadvantages, I want to note the pathological desire of management to save on everything: we were in the last decade of April, at the beginning of arrival, the water in the water park was heated and there were a lot of kids, but somewhere in the middle of the rest, the water became icy, like in the river Styx. We also went to the reception and discussed with the staff of the water park area. But it's no use, at first it's a lie that it allegedly became windy, then that the water heater broke, then that even if they turn it on, the water will be heated for as much as 3 days.

-they will do anything for money
-the availability of a variety of food
- very cheap travel packages
-beautiful territory
- it's nice to swim in the lagoon, there are fish, the water is a little cold, but you quickly get used to it.
Cons:
-initially they give a room in terrible condition, in a building where repairs are being carried out, only two days later they were moved to a normal one
- the number is dead, but just to sleep, it is acceptable
-there is no clean water, which is given during cleaning, it is better not to drink
- alcohol should not be drunk, which is served for a fee.
- there are many different kinds of food, but in fact rice, chicken and vegetables are the same
-the queue at the table takes about 40 minutes, so come in advance.
- there were almost no fruits, only raw melon and tangerines
- they didn't swim in the pool, because they never caught a free sunbed in 11 days
- towels are given out once a day and they are dirty and dirty, they are not allowed to change (beach towels)
- free Wi-Fi doesn't work at all, so it's easier to buy at the entrance
- there are few shops in the hotel (we were almost forced to buy an aroma lamp, only when they started shouting, they let us leave
- the staff was insanely rude and rude upon check
-in - it's like everyone from all three hotels goes to eat in one (el palacio), so there are a lot of people in the dining room and in the lobby
The hotel is super! The lagoon is right inside the hotel, you leave the building and immediately the sea. They were fed to the slaughter, constantly different dishes, especially for dinner all sorts of goodies. We were at the beginning of September, the sea was 31°.
The hotel is good, there is a deep lagoon closed by a network, a beach with a sandy entrance into the water, the tides do not interfere, you can always swim. The attitude towards the Germans is excellent, they are directly licked, t, to the Russians according to the residual principle, the rooms are old, the staff is friendly, especially for a dollar.
They kicked out of the room at 12 o'clock and cut off the bracelets, and the check-out was only at 19 o'clock, well they didn't drive out into the street without food and water.
Not a bad hotel. I've read the reviews, I expected the worst. But no, everything is fine. Yes, the hotel is tired, everything is old, but we came to the sea!!! The staff is nice and friendly. The food was good, meat, chicken, fish, everything was enough. There are few fruits, but there is a market not far from the hotel, for a dollar or two you can buy both watermelon and victoria. The sea is fire, its own lagoon. The territory is large. The towel was changed every day. The bed linen, of course, has never been changed. The Internet is very slow. We didn't buy it.
A wonderful hotel! Corresponds to 4 stars.We had a rest in February, the rest was a success, the child liked everything, a heated pool, a clean beach and good food. Excellent staff, polite and friendly,good animation for children
Egypt is closed to me at this stage. Terrible service. Starting with the fact that the staff occupies the sunbeds themselves , and then they give you a whiff and bring you asking for a dollar . The food is not tasty , the alcohol is disgusting . There is only one potato per room . No matter how many people you are . The animation is weak . Pools in November were already heated everywhere , but not here . I just didn't swim the whole vacation. The numbers are killed . There is no table for breakfast , lunch , or dinner . There is also a struggle for appliances and napkins
My favorite hotel!!! I flew there in October for the 9th time! The hotel is in the shape of a horseshoe, there is a lagoon inside the horseshoe. And at the end of the beach, just look down into the sea and you are in Paradise!!! Lots of all kinds of corals and fish!!! 👍🐟🐙🌴😀
