We stayed at Sonesta Pharaon in November with Turtess. In general, we liked everything, because we ourselves wanted to relax and get new impressions, and not look for flaws. Flight, transfer, hotel check-in, guide work - everything is fine. Not scary even for those who travel for the first time.
The hotel staff is well trained and very friendly. Everyone greets, smiles, loves to talk, and this is without unpleasant obsession. And if you yourself have learned a few Arabic words, then mutual sympathy is guaranteed. The conditions of the hotel are quite comfortable, cleaning, food. service, beach - everything is good. You can really relax without straining. Indeed, there is a coral reef, which is great to look at from the sea - the beauty and diversity of flora and fauna delights. I liked the large outdoor pool with very clean, almost non-chlorinated water, a little cool.
You can get to Hurghada by minibus for 6 pounds for two (I gave 10 without change) or by taxi for 5 dollars. There is more color on the bus. Shopping in Hurghada is not easy, but it is possible if you do not pay attention to the excessive importunity of sellers. Prices are inflated for everything, 2 or even 10 times. Almost everything can be bought much cheaper than ours.
Were in Luxor - the impression is average. A caravan of buses, a long road, an abundance of tourists, some kind of turmoil and obligation, like in a pioneer camp. But scuba diving is great! The whole day at sea, 2 different reefs, a good team (Rosetta), a delicious lunch, clear sea - I liked everything.
In Egypt, you can forget about your business and have a great week or two, if you have such an opportunity and desire.
