Hotel ratings by criteria:
I read some reviews and the roof is slowly moving down: did we rest in GRAND SEAS HOSTMARK? Or maybe he moved somewhere in a couple of months? Because the impressions are completely different. Arrived 01.12. Met Future Travel Group. We did not strain them much, there were practically no complaints either. All wishes were fulfilled. No failures were observed. The level of performance is standard for Egypt. They won’t leave you on the road, but you can also roll your suitcase to the bus : ))
About the hotel here they write just the opposite impressions. From myself I will add: a normal hotel, for reasonable money. The clientele is mostly from Germany and Central Europe (Italy, Croatia, Slovakia, maybe someone else) The audience is calm and not noisy. Who just take a break from the noise-din, so right here, you can't go wrong. The servants strive to cut down some money, but they do not get into the eyes impudently.
The food, about which they write a lot here, can be said to be standard. Do not forget that the resort areas of Egypt are areas closed to ordinary Egyptians and the service is geared towards Europe. Meals - almost everywhere a standardized European menu. Indigenous people don't eat like that. About flies and ants - this is not a clear bust. Rather, the servants got a little bit, who poisoned this living creature two days later on the third : )
It is better to take a room on the 2nd floor. And a balcony with a table and chairs and no one roams under the window. : ) The sea near the hotel is shallow. The water in the lagoon is really colder than 30 meters behind the pier. For little kids, it's the best. And no waves and depths for children. The servants on the beach are trying to earn money, but they will not come up ten times a day. Once refused - rest all day.
In fact, we went for the first time, the hotel and the resort were chosen for a long time and meticulously. In order not to fly in with savings, they turned to CAM.
Chose 12 days with a cruise on the Nile. Who is interested in Egypt not only as a beach with fish and a canteen - I recommend it. It really is something. We covered 3500 km in 12 days. : ) More than 1000 photos, a lot of impressions. The tan was visible for 2 months. If we can do it again, we will definitely do it again. I liked the place and the people too. In fact, it can be seen from the reviews: who goes for what, he will get it. My wife had an anniversary, I decided to make a memorable surprise instead of covering the clearing. It was 120% successful : )
From useful tips: take a change in foreign currency, or change it into small pounds in the hotel lobby. Getting change is a problem. Therefore, it is better to count without a goal and be sure to bargain! : ) For Muslim countries, trade is not a way to snatch more, (no one has canceled it either), but a way of communication, a kind of sport. : ) A worthy opponent will be truncated there immediately and will not be released just like that. Getting a discount of 20-30% is quite realistic.
Speaking of water.
Free drinks are valid only for breakfast and water at 9 pounds per 1.5 liter. Well, she's 5 pounds outside the gate. And the drivers of sightseeing buses also have 5. And in Cairo and in Aswan and in Luxor. At retail, almost everywhere for 5. Only in Edfu on the pier, the kid offered a pair for 5, but there you already have to look at the packaging. By the way, drinking water in the tap, in any case, is very similar to tap water in Kyiv. The only catch is that we don't drink tap water at home, and we didn't take a water heater to Egypt...: ) Next time we won't miss it. Indeed, paying almost 2 bucks for a glass of boiling water and a bag of Lipton is clearly not to our liking. : )
Summing up, I can rate it this way: the hotel is a solid 4 sometimes 4+ sea and beach 4+ (for sunbathers, swimmers) service staff 4, territory 5 food 4. I won’t evaluate animation and additional service, they didn’t use it, but the guys tried. It seems that now it will not be so pulled to the Crimea.
: ) The country itself left unforgettable impressions and a desire to visit again.
