My impressions of three hotels in Egypt
Egypt has always been a dream for me, not just a dream, but a DREAM. I was interested in everything there, the sea, the desert, the Nile. And the history of Egypt caused some reverence. Looking ahead, I will say that when we visited the State. museum in Cairo, I listened to the story of the pharaohs, almost like relatives. When my husband and I first scraped together money for a trip to Egypt, I was just happy. We turned to a travel agency, which was then advertised everywhere - Gallop across Europe. For our money, the manager offered us a modest 3 + in Khargada - the Rimuviere hotel, saying that you can’t take a hotel in Egypt with less than three plus. Rimuviere is located on the very edge of the coral reef, so we could walk along the shore and collect dried corals. Then we went to Cairo, Luxor, to the Singing Fountains, to a quad bike safari. The hotel is quite decent for the money we paid. The area is small but clean. True, when I visited other hotels (when we went on excursions), I secretly envied those who lived in luxurious, immersed in lighting and flowers, five-star hotels. The second time we collected money and decided to go to the four. We chose a hotel with a water park in Hurghada - Titanic. This is the second line, but we had enough entertainment on the territory. The child and her husband on the water slides were "killed" by swimming trunks, they simply wiped them to holes. The food was excellent. What they say is noisy, it's true, but it's never noisy with children, because we are used to it and this little thing did not bother us. Animation on the territory of the hotel was reduced to water aerobics and training in oriental dances. The men played water polo. For the third time, we decided to go to a 5-star hotel. I chose for a long time and settled on a brand new hotel Grand Hotel Sharm in Sharm El Sheikh. After Hurghada, Sharm seemed to us too pompous and somehow spoiled by our tourists and, accordingly, money. The hotel is still being completed, because when we were put in a room, I immediately heard the sounds of construction - very, very loud. As best she could on her fingers, she explained to the boy-porter that we would not stay here. The husband went to swear at the reception - to no avail - there are no other numbers. Turning on the charm, I went to the reception. The number was found and, moreover, without any bribe, and our new building was located near one of the pools. The peculiarity of this hotel is that it is multi-tiered. Lots of pools. There are plenty of sun loungers around. There is a beach, but the descent into the water is by stairs. Nightmare. The bottom is not there AT ALL. With the way I swim like an ax without a handle, it was immediately decided to buy a life jacket and slippers (not white, but for swimming : )). With such ammunition, I began to feel more confident, but I confess that the shots from the movie "Jaws" haunted me all the time. Therefore, for a long time I did not dare to sail far from the stairs. The sea is absolutely AMAZING. We previously bought an underwater camera, so we spent all the time in the water busy with photo hunting for fish. It turned out that this is a rather complicated matter. After all, you can’t tell a fish, stop and smile, because at first we mostly had fish tails in the photo. Then they got used to it and later boasted to each other about new pictures and new fish. I must say right away that if it is written - "Do not feed the fish", then you DO NOT need to feed them. They bite and hurt. We checked for ourselves. idiots. The food at the hotel was good. We are not pretentious people, because all the little things that spoil the rest of others, for us, remained just trifles. From Sharm we went to Jerusalem. I will immediately advise those who have a weak vestibular apparatus, like me. The bus ride is long, along a winding mountain road. I got sick. Therefore, if there is a desire to go to Israel, go to have a rest in Taba, it is on the border with Israel. At the end of my epic, I’ll say that if you don’t know how to relax, you will be bored everywhere and for any money. Don't be lazy. You can always lie on the beach. Take part in animation activities, go to the city, buy a ticket for some excursion, then the rest will be more memorable. Good luck to all.
