Good afternoon to everyone who is just going to rest. Just returned from a 9 day trip yesterday.
I have never written reviews before, but this time, breaking the whole Internet in search of reviews about the hotel (before the trip), I decided to write my review upon arrival. For the truth will save the world.
So.
* We traveled four of us, with friends, took two standard rooms. The flight to Hurghada was delayed by 2 hours, at 12 am we were only in Hurghada, while everyone was taken to the hotels - our very last one . . In general, by 2 am we were at the hotel. The hotel is big and true. It consists of a bunch of small two-story houses, as well as two improved parts - from family villas and the main building or something . . I don’t remember . .

So we have, as you remember, two standard rooms. We decided to put 20 dollars in the passport, maybe they will find a better place for us. They didn’t take the money, they took out a hotel card, they say, they say, “there are excellent rooms here and here” (I already wrote about this) and “in order to live there - 10 euros per person per day. ” "Luxury rooms, " they say, "the sea is opposite. " Well, we decided to see them. They brought us there, an ordinary room, nothing special, except that the sea is really nearby. Thought and thought, we decided to still take the standard rooms prepared for us. Since the DIFFERENCE IN THE SUITE AND STANDARD ROOMS IS ONLY IN THE REMOTE FROM THE SEA. And we are students, poor people, we didn’t have much money with us. Apparently no one was going to feed us a late dinner, we had a bite to eat in the Lobby bar, for a fee.
* For 8 days, all four had stomach pains and (sorry) we did not get off the toilets. Mezim, coal, noshpa, smecta are indispensable companions of rest in the Hilton.
* I repeat myself a lot today, but again I have to remind you that we are students, and students are happy with any food; ) But the food at the Hilton is on the top three, if not lower. I'll give you an example. Dinner. Rice, beef stew, chicken with vegetables, sausages, pasta, tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, banana cakes, grapes. . . Oops, that seems to be it. No, of course, all this is laid out on a million trays, and it seems that there is a lot of food. But she is not. We are incredibly lucky! On the last day, (by the way, when we left the hotel at 19.00, we were not fed dinner). At 12.00, our AL bracelets were cut off, and we were given coupons for lunch. Asking about dinner, we received an answer that 10 euros per person is the price for extra. food... So, we went to dinner not through the reception, where there is a checker of bracelets, but through the entrance from the sea, and . . drum roll . . WE ate watermelons!
* What can I say about animation? I can't say how many animators are there, I haven't seen them. For 9 days of rest I saw only one during the day. There were two times at the evening show, boring things, and nothing more.
* Golf carts drive around the hotel - due to the fact that the territory of the hotel is huge, and the territory is stepped, sometimes, until you get from the extreme houses at the very top to the sea, you will go crazy, and only back... m . . So , you can order a car directly from the room by phone, it will come and pick you up.
There are many pools, choose any, it seems 5 or so.

* Sea! : ) That's what I haven't told yet. Panton was being repaired during our vacation, which means you won’t get to the depth right away. Every day there is a low tide at 150-200 meters, and in coral slippers . . you "go" to the depth. With my own eyes I saw a moray eel, three stingrays, starfish, and a huge number of all kinds of fish. The beach is really big, there were no problems with sunbeds.
* $ 5 - the cost of a trip from the hotel to Hurghada, only you need to get out on the highway, and not order from the hotel, it will be more expensive. First, you agree on a price, get into the car, during the twenty minutes of the trip you listen to the learned Russian words, complaints about poverty and practically demands to pay 1.5-2-3-4-5 times more for the trip, but do not give in, be persistent, turn the situation into a joke so as not to spoil your mood and ONLY ON ARRIVAL at your destination, give money for the trip. Not earlier!
There is also a Senzo hypermarket halfway from Hurghada. Everything is like in our hypermarkets, only cheaper. Ask for $3 for Senzo, no more. There are also bazaar rows, they are a little earlier than Senzo, but there are also 2-3 dollars - There is a Cleopatra Shop, there are fixed prices and at the same time very small, I advise.
Probably that's all. I don’t know, add up all the pros and cons, of course I had a rest, you can’t argue with that, and the money was paid ridiculous. But I wouldn't go there a second time. Yes, and I advise you, choose more. If you have any questions, I will be happy to answer them for you.
