Settlement... I have already been to this hotel twice, but for a long time and out of season. This time we were waiting for the settlement until 14 o'clock, the first room was not at all pleasant, the second was quite satisfactory.
Not so long ago the rooms at King Tut were updated, so the room itself was good - white ceilings, walls, furniture is normal. there were a couple of nuances with the toilet (water flowed all the time), but we decided them ourselves. And yet our window did not close - something with a double-glazed window, but this did not particularly upset us either. The windows overlooked the street, but the sound was not very disturbing. And they were saved from the heat by air conditioning. Here is another strange moment - there were 4 of us in the room, but only 3 sets of towels were always given (and beach towels too) - as if the child was not a person.
The hotel itself.

King Tut and the Sphinx have a common area and beach. You can swim in all the pools (one large and three small ones). There is a water park on the territory of the Sphinx, which is open 10-12 and 14-17 every day, but children ride there. (ours could not be pulled out of there). Children's animation is present - every day from 10 to 12 a children's club is open - children are collected along the beach and taken to a separate room where they watch cartoons, draw, face painting is done for them, and in the evening at 20.30 a children's disco begins.
Nutrition.
Chicken, fish and beef are a must every day. Rice, potatoes and pasta. Sometimes there was something from their national cuisine. A lot of sweets, fruits (we had melons, apples and oranges, they also gave watermelons in the Sphinx). Between lunch and dinner on the beach in the bar you could take some buns. Drinks - juices (from powder, of course), cola, fanta, sprite (they also breed them there themselves - therefore, as for me, they are very sweet), water, beer, local alcohol - you could take unlimited quantities - at the bar in the lobby and right on the beach. Freshly squeezed juices and imported alcohol - you could also buy on the beach.
Beach.
We can say that there are 2 beaches. One sandy, not deep at all - suitable for children and those who cannot swim. (there is also water aerobics). The second beach from the side of the Sphinx hotel is steps immediately into the open sea (I recommend going here in slippers, because there is a rocky bottom). The sea is clean, transparent, the fish swim right under your feet, and if you swim to the sandy beach, you can understand that the sandy beach is a dead coral, but on the side that goes to the sea it is alive, and there are a lot of different fish and beautiful corals. I myself saw a huge stingray there! You don’t even need to go on an excursion to the sea - all the beauties of the Red Sea are right in the hotel!
Animation.
The guys did their best - they were invited to exercise, and to water aerobics and belly dance, and to volleyball, and water polo.
Outcome.
We came to rest, so some minor misunderstandings could not spoil our mood. Beach, sea, food - wonderful!
