Rested in this hotel from 3 to 10 November 2008. Now the hotel is called Albatros Palace. The overall impressions of the rest are the most positive. This is not the first time in Egypt, so there is something to compare with.
The hotel is built in the shape of a horseshoe. In the middle is a huge swimming pool with bridges, jacuzzi and slides for kids. In the evenings, it is all very beautifully illuminated. Only downside is the water is ice cold. The hotel is brand new so everything is clean and well maintained. It was built in oriental style. Very nice and rich reception, nice to sit there.
The rooms are spacious enough. Everything is new, TV with 4 Russian channels (panel on the wall), mini-bar is filled only with water, individually controlled air conditioning, electronic safe in the room. The beds are very comfortable with good mattresses. Each room has a sofa. We had a large one and used it as an extra. place. The floor is tiled and carpeted. The bathroom is good, everything works properly. Consists of 3 compartments: 1-sink with hair dryer, 2-toilet, 3-shower hole in the floor. We did not spill water outside this compartment, and our friends complained that it was heating up. Everything is very clean and shiny. There are plastic chairs and a table on the balcony. The rooms are cleaned every day, but not particularly well. Tipping does not affect the quality. Sometimes at 5 pm the cleaner wasn't there yet.
There are 4 restaurants on the territory: 1 - Moorish with oriental food and decorated in an oriental style, 2 - Mediterranean with ordinary European food and a classic look, 3 - Italian with pasta, pizzas, etc. and 4 Chinese with dragons, Chinese chefs and rather spicy food. There are also a lot of tables on the open veranda. Performances are often shown there during dinner. The food quality is very good. Variety pleases. Only breakfasts are the same, however, due to the large selection, it does not malnourish. A lot of fruits - pomegranates, persimmons, apples, guavas, bananas, dates, oranges, tangerines. The pastries are very tasty and there are a lot of them. It is better not to take “juices” from the devices, they are vile and very liquid diluted. Cola, fanta, bottled beer. You can ask the bartender for juices from the package. They are decent. Very good cocktails.
The beach is good enough. Lots of sun beds, but it's better to go early. Umbrellas and fences are good. The distance to the neighbors is decent, so no one walks over their heads.
Sea. The tour operator writes about 100 m to the depth. This is not entirely true. To a depth of 300 meters on the pebbles, knee-deep. Generally tedious. But this is solvable. You can go swimming in a nearby hotel, there is a decent lagoon, 10 meters from the shore is already deep. But! Tourists also go there from the second line, so there are a lot of people. You can also go to the pier. There, up to a depth of 5 meters. And corals and fish immediately begin. In principle, there are many of them, but even in Hurghada there are hotels where the underwater world is much richer. But there is something to see here, so it's worth swimming there. We saw stingrays, moray eels, rhinoceros fish there. For those who do not feel very confident in the water, it is not deep there, up to the shoulders, you can always stand on your feet.
Animation in the hotel at a very high level. Animators entertain people all day long. There are all kinds of sports activities on the beach. In the evening, all sorts of performances are shown around the pool. Live music plays on the open veranda above the restaurant. At first, the aunt sang under karaoke. Then a group appeared. They play wonderfully, and their soloist is just a stunning handsome man with a good voice. They sing pop hits very well. You can also dance there, they are very happy about it. You can also smoke a hookah, it costs $3. Tables with their appearance there was not enough. In general, the animation level is similar to the Turkish one, which is very rare for Egypt.
Lots of bars. I recommend the Turkish bar Le Pasha, they make wonderful coffee and have a very nice atmosphere.
In general, I liked the hotel very much. Rest was a success. If you have any questions, write.
