Destination Egypt, Hurghada, Triton Empire Hotel 3*
Tour operator Pegas (St. Petersburg)
Orenburg Airlines
I'm writing a review right now based on my experience.
Just flew in from Hurghada last night. The flight there was supposed to be at 7.50 in the morning, moved to 11.00. Purely by chance, at 2 o'clock in the morning I went to the Aeroflot website and saw a different departure time. And many did not know and were in Pulkovo-1 from 5 o'clock in the morning.
Departure back according to the documents at 22.50, first moved to 21.00, the next day I accidentally found out from people on the beach that the flight was at 18.00, that they would come to pick up at the hotel at 15.50. And I was still on the beach at about 14.00, so I had to run with the child with all my might to get ready for the room.
It took 5 hours and 10 minutes to fly there and back.
Our guide's name is Nariman, an excellent person, he will always answer questions and tell you everything. A very pleasant person. Never had to look for him, was at the hotel every day.
Since I did not have the opportunity to choose a hotel in advance, I took a blind tour, the budget was up to 18.000 rubles. for two with a child of 5 years. Tour manager. The firm advised this hotel and I trusted her. And she didn't regret it at all. The holiday went just fine. This is one of the best 3 * hotels, especially since even many 4 * and 5 * do not have heated pools.
Upon arrival at the airport, I immediately found a Pegasus representative with a sign, explained where to go to find out the number of the bus that would take me to the hotel. Drive 15-20 minutes. On the bus, the guide explained everything in great detail, immediately moved the clock back 1 hour, answered all questions.
Check in:
I filled out the card for myself and the child, remembered from the reviews that I needed to show some kind of artistry, said “Salam Aleikum”, smiled a couple of times and immediately gave room 253 on the second floor (they have a zero first floor). When I went to the room, I was afraid that something terrible would happen now.
But in fact - a room with a double and a single bed, with a safe, refrigerator, TV, air conditioning (but we did not use it), with a balcony and a view of the pools in the courtyard of the hotel. I was very happy. Everything is clean and beautiful. Who likes to dry their hair with a hairdryer - it is not there, take it from home. I also took a travel iron, a very necessary thing. Since I was traveling with a child, I took a lot of pills, they were not even useful.
The reception gave 2 pink cards with a room number to get towels and water at the hotel bar on the beach (1 bottle of 1.5 liters per person per day). She always had enough for brushing her teeth, washing and drinking. The room has a safe with a key.
For $ 1 left in the room every day, towels, sheets, pillowcases were changed for us all the time, and even water was added to a vase with local flowers, which my son always cut off on the way from the beach.
Nutrition:
My child and I got up at 7.00 in the morning and by 8.00 went to breakfast.
They bake pancakes in front of you, make an omelette with tomatoes and green peppers. I always asked for no pepper. Various jams, jams, sah. powder, honey, muesli, milk, potatoes, salads, delicious buns, tea, coffee of 2 types, alcohol without restrictions, only it is all diluted. The local beer is non-alcoholic. Gin, vodka, whiskey, rum - everything is also locally produced, and not very strong, there is no wine. In any number of cola, fanta, sprite, drinks like Jupi. In all restaurants, all the waiters pestered the child all the time and flirted with him, they love children very much, it was not boring. Every dinner, snow-white tablecloths were laid on the tables, dirty dishes were always cleaned on time, in general, they always fussed.
Meat, fish, side dishes, salads and vegetables in different variations, everything is very tasty. For some reason, my child always ate cucumbers and red cabbage. I tried everything, and we never had any problems with the stomach.
Delicious baked eggplants, french fries, different soups, they took every day, the child asked for an addition, and at home you can’t force half a plate to be eaten.
Our hotel had only breakfast and dinner, and we went to Triton Empire Beach Resort 3 * for lunch and to the beach. There is a drinks bar on the beach where they bring you a menu and you can choose pizza, french fries, etc. , everything is very tasty.
It was even great to once again walk down the street past the stalls for 5-7 minutes. Don't forget to haggle if you decide to visit them. I liked something, they said the price was $10, said it was expensive and pretended to leave, they immediately say $7, and so everywhere. It is more profitable to buy in pounds. The course in the bank is 1 $ = 5.4 pounds, the bank in the hotel is located near the bar, it works at certain times in the morning and in the evening, there is a schedule.
According to the food system, I took all inclusive.
The territory of Triton Empire Beach Resort 3 * is very beautiful, but small. Many palm trees, flowering shrubs, bougainvillea. The sea is clean, I did not see any oil stains.
There was always only one glass-bottomed yacht near the pier. The beach is a large pebble, many called this sand - screenings. I didn't care because we wore beach slippers, bought them from the hotel. The beach is protected from the wind, at 9.00 in the morning you can always find free sunbeds. The towels are very dirty and damp, it looks like they haven't washed them. We took ours. Entry into the sea is smooth, fine sand, it is better to enter from the left side. The beach has a toilet and a changing cabin. Everywhere is very clean, even the children ran into it barefoot. About 2 heated pools (adult and children), every day animation and water aerobics. Animators Russian girls always came up to us and invited us to dance, children's animation, on excursions. To the left of the Beach Hotel there is an AQUARIUM, you can go see the fish. The hotel has a lot of couples, couples with children, people of retirement age. Young people went to hang out at discos in the city.
The hotel is mainly for a quiet family holiday. We really liked it. In the evenings, after dinner, we walked around the shops, time passed quickly. I met a woman from Kazan with Irina, she is 51 years old, and we went everywhere together for 8 days. So there was no need to be bored. There were many vacationers one at a time, but everyone found company for themselves, so don’t worry, it won’t be boring - that’s for sure, everyone communicates. I happened to see a thunderstorm and lightning with rain in Egypt. It was an indescribable sight. All the shops were flooded with rain, all the things the merchants took out into the street to dry after the rain.
We went to a cotton store called Karkusha, bought a lot of towels, quite inexpensively, in order to bring them to St. Petersburg we had to buy a small Egyptian-made suitcase on wheels for $ 12, which is also a ridiculous price. Bargain, everywhere was for $20. In one Super Market I bought a child a juice of 200 grams for 5 pounds, I went to another - for 1.
2 pounds the same juice. Draw your own conclusions. Magnets vary in price.
The most important thing is to smile everywhere, say hello, and do not pay any attention to the negatives. Arabs are very fond of luring you into their shop so that you buy something. Everywhere shout Hello!!!
At the airport of Hurghada, when leaving, there are many souvenir points, you can buy a lot there (books, magnets, key chains, t-shirts, tunics, silver, bracelets, bags, soft musical toys in the form of camels and giraffes, etc. )
We paid 17.700 rubles for the rest. Adult + child. Rest turned out to HURRAY!! ! Frankly, many Russian comrades on the beach didn’t like something (few fruits, etc. ) For example, I had to take my child out to the sun and sea, but I can eat fruit at home. I think let the dissatisfied go for 5 * and choose what they want. And my vacation was unforgettable. If there are any questions, write. I really want to return to this hotel, the child did not want to leave.
I wish you a good holiday too!
