This hotel has a pretty high rating everywhere I've looked. And this surprises me, because the hotel is the most ordinary.
I followed these reviews, but it would be better to go to the previous hotel, which I liked more, but with a lower rating (Stella di Mare in Sharm).

Probably, those who write - excellent well-groomed territory, have not been to other 5 star hotels.
There are bushes with flowers, in some places there is a lawn (but in some places there is not), an ordinary pool, ordinary arches, paths.

The territory is large, there is where to pass 1.000 per day.

It takes 10 minutes to go to the beach through a tunnel of plants, but you can also take a steam train.

You can’t swim on Hiltona Beach, and there is no pontoon there. It's just a beach for sunbathing and drinking cocktails. There is no point in sitting there.

To swim and see the corals, you need to walk 200 meters to the public beach. There are few sun loungers, and leaving your things (phone for example) may not be safe.


The entrance to the sea is smooth and sandy, children play with sand on the shore.
Before the corals, you still need to swim 50 meters deep into the sea, which is also not very convenient. The corals are good, but the fish are few. They say that turtles and stingrays come, but I haven't seen them yet.

On the beach, music plays loudly tyts-tyts, which is not very pleasant. But the beach is public, so there are no questions to the Hilton.

A brown goo floats on the sea, which arouses suspicion. I hope this is such algae, and tomorrow they will not be.

The food in the restaurant is delicious, but the choice is sooo small. One type of main course each: 1 beef, 1 chicken, 1 fish and 1 falafel/beans, 1 pasta.

Separate stand with grated vegetables and salads. Near "Egyptian" strange salads from everything that was in the kitchen.

Separately, a stand of rolls (here there is a large selection).

Sweet 4 cakes and 4 cookies and some fruit. Sometimes there are dates (it's very tasty).

Juices, beer, wine - free of charge, fresh juices for money. The coffee at the bar is decent.
Those who think I HAVE GONE just don't know that other hotels can have a much richer and tastier choice (for the same money).

Definitely not getting better after the holidays.

The room is a good size, the bed is comfortable. The air conditioning is noisy and poorly adjusted, but there is a fan.
Our room had a terrace - very comfortable to sit there after dinner.

Service at the hotel - the most common for 5 matches.
I don't understand why he is praised so much.

If I had known all this before buying a tour, I would have chosen another hotel.
