лучший отель в хургаде best hotel in hurghada

Just returned from this hotel, before starting my review, I want to say that I am a very capricious and pretentious tourist and travel a lot where, I myself work in Russia as a tour operator, and have been to many places. In Egypt, as a tourist for the eighth time, I rested both in 3 * and in 5 * deluxe class. I read a lot of reviews and I can tell you right away that, in principle, they are all true. The only difference is that a person who is vacationing in Egypt for the first time can start and find fault with the hotel, and if a person has already rested in Egyptian fives, then he will not write such negative little things that I read about in the reviews of many vacationers in this hotel! I can immediately say that this is a solid, oh-oh-oh-very good five. The hotel is certainly not a deluxe class, as many tour operators position it, but five solid stars for sure. And now in more detail: I think it’s not worth repeating, because in previous reviews everything is written in great detail, but nowhere is the most important thing written,
and many tourists are interested in: "What is the "ultra" system in this hotel, and what does it mean? ". This is the moment I want to describe to you in detail. "ULTRA" in Egypt is a slightly peculiar concept, namely, in this hotel it is a free one-time dry cleaning of your belongings, the issuance of catamarans, canoes, masks with tubes in unlimited quantities, every day a single body massage 15 min, daily visits to a la carte restaurants , the work of bars in the disco and in the lobby is free of charge 24 hours, as well as night snacks are also 24 hours, doctor services 24 hours, hookah lounge is free, 24-hour babysitting for walking parents Internet 24 hours, both in the rooms and on the beach and in the lobby bar, tennis court, billiards in the disco area, table tennis, a computer club with games for children, a cinema, free use of a safe, give out to the room along with shower gels, shampoos and conditioners, as well as a toothbrush with toothpaste, a washcloth,
a comb and a shaver, use of a jacuzzi 24 hours, local premium alcohol, immediately an accent, this hotel does not have and did not have imported alcohol, but for that it is not an ordinary Egyptian drink all the juices in the glass there is no UPI, very good the quality of the wine, they also give ice cream every day from 12.00 to 17.00, both in a plastic cup and in a waffle cone, all yoghurts for breakfast are only in Nestle jars, a bus also runs on the territory, service waiters on the beach, also included in the "ULTRA" system - well, everything seems to have written to you what they mean by the word "ULTRA". I think that for Egypt it is very worthy! Well, now a little about everything, and I want to start with the service. I have seen such a good service in a few 5 *, they are perfectly cleaned, and I will notice in the morning, every day the bed linen is changed in the room,

everyone cleans very well and the cleaning manager constantly comes and asks if everything suits you, but if you also give $ 1, the cleaner will come to you 2-3 times a day and straighten your bed and remove excess garbage, in general , I was very surprised! Very good service, both in the main restaurant and in the a la carte restaurants. At breakfast in a restaurant, waiters constantly come up to you and offer tea and coffee, you don’t have to wait, run after them, as you ask in many 5 *, here they themselves come up more than once and offer tea, coffee, sivki, water. There are always white tablecloths on the tables, clean cutlery and glasses, as soon as people have eaten and left, everything immediately changes and is served again. All this is done very quickly and just as beautifully. The mini-bar was always filled in the room: two bottles of water, a bottle of cola, a bottle of sprite, tea, coffee, sugar, cream. The service in the bars is very good, and most importantly - fast.
Any alcoholic cocktail, as well as coffee, tea, juices, water will always be prepared at your request. If something happens to you, I will immediately help you in any way they can. Also, in more than one review, I didn’t read that this hotel has just a chic gym with very expensive new professional vip-trainers, the same room is designed for step and aerobics. In the evenings, local champions in Egypt in body building come to this room from the mounds to do it. .
Now about the most important thing! About nutrition. I can say my opinion, in fact, the food there is very monotonous. For example, there are very few pastries for breakfast compared to the same "SOFITEL 4 *", cheeses, sausages are also very small selection, for lunch cakes are always the same for all 14 days, not very tasty and the choice is not at all great, and for dinner, with regards to cakes, they lay out everything that they didn’t eat for lunch. As for the rest of the dishes, I can immediately tell you no frills and a mega choice of salads, meat,
baking, side dishes you will not see there. Everything is very simple and monotonous, the food is like in good 4 * stars, I advise you to better order a la carte restaurants and dine in them, it is much tastier there, the choice is larger and very stylish. But there is one “BUT”, there is a strict entrance to a la carte restaurants, they are not allowed in T-shirts, capris, shorts, a shirt and trousers are required, the same applies to women (evening dresses, trousers, etc. ). I myself saw how people had problems with this, someone did not take this kind of clothes with them at all, someone did not have clothes that did not meet the requirements of restaurants, so keep in mind. And it's useless to argue with them, because rules have rules. There were not too many fruits either, well, of course, oranges, peaches, apples, grapefruit, watermelon, dates, sometimes melon and bananas are standard. Of course, you will not stay hungry, but there is very little choice for this level of hotel, I would say that very little and a lot of food is not tasty!

But this hotel is completely different, here the main focus is not on food, but on services, service, rooms, etc. etc. The number of rooms in this hotel is wonderful. All rooms have sea views, but the most comfortable and best building is 4, in which I lived, although Russians are practically not accommodated there, because there are the best rooms, the best view, and most importantly, there is the most convenient location: and close to the sea and to bars, restaurants too. It’s just that the hotel is not likely to be large in it 8 buildings, well, imagine living either in building 1, where you go crazy to the sea, or in building 8, where you also go crazy to restaurants. Pools in the hotel 3 pieces, there are 2 pools with sea water. I read in many reviews that the animation is terrible, I completely agree with you. Animation is mainly Russian girls and young people, I would not call it animation, but a circle of "Crazy Hands" !! ! Such mediocrity and bad taste, I was shocked, in 3 * hotels there was a much better animation team.
The worst thing I saw for the first time is that in this hotel they are allowed to eat and drink at the table in restaurants and bars along with hotel guests, I think that this is simply not acceptable, but I was more surprised that in this hotel the animation team is allowed to drink alcoholic beverages, both during the day and in the evening. Elementary, the picture is a day, hotel guests are sitting near the bar, an animator comes up to them, sits down next to him, orders a whiskey-cola, and drinks with the guests, a child immediately looks into his mouth, with whom this animator will go to play in a few minutes , with a wonderful exhaust from the mouth! Great? Yes? In the evening, on the terrace, animators (Russian girls) invite guests to dance to live music, and then they themselves come up to the bar counter on the terrace and ask the bartender to pour them alcohol, sit down at the guests' tables, drink and chat! How many times have I personally heard
that foreigners are discussing such behavior of the animation team in the hotel, looking at them with shocked eyes! Still, this is a hotel of a fairly high category and there should be subordination, and this is a huge minus for the managers of this hotel that they do not notice such behavior of the animation group! Also, the hotel managers do not see that in this hotel, simply, there are so many vacationers, and this animation group cannot recruit people for water polo, aqua aerobics, or any other competitions, well, at most 5 people lure and all. Is this animation??? ? And now I can write to you the serious disadvantages of this hotel. I'm not afraid of this word, but a huge minus of this beautiful hotel is the "lack" of the sea. No, of course there is a sea, but the entrance to it is simply terrible and you won’t go into it without special shoes, and many wrote that there is one lagoon where there is sand. All this is nonsense, it exists, this lagoon, but it is also better not to enter it without shoes.
. And also, when the tide is low, it’s generally terrible, even slippers won’t help you there, and you have to go very far to swim normally, and you go right along the corals and there is a sea of ​ ​ ​ ​ sea urchins (I apologize for the pun) moray eels, rays and stars. More than once people even in slippers pricked their feet. And the managers say: "And you swim in pools with sea water, they are dug and tiled for this! ". But sorry, if there are such wild low tides, then, accordingly, they are in pools with sea water, since it is directly connected with the sea, the tide is out in the sea and the tide is out in the pool. And there’s nothing to do with children there, because many times they saw children with injured legs, only the parent turned away, that’s all, the child entered the sea and was all torn. This is the biggest disadvantage, that there is no way to get that swimming, and that sea that we used to get from Hurghada. Also one of the minuses is that the hotel is located a little away from the main road,

which leads to the center of Hurghada, and in order to get there, the hotel offers a taxi for $40. I think that not everyone can afford to pay $40 for a 20-minute drive. At least they let a bus from the hotel that runs around the hotel to the main road, where you could get out and catch a taxi for a maximum of $ 3 and get to the center of Hurghada. Somehow this moment was not thought out, because, for example, shopping, or to the fruit market, or, for example, to the same super disco "LIDEL BUDA", or to jewelry stores, or to the best fish restaurant "STAR FISH", which I advise everyone to visit, it is very difficult to leave the hotel. I also completely forgot to write that in this hotel, the only one of all hotels in Hurghada, there is a separate coffee shop called "MOZART", where you can try different varieties, types of coffee and cocktails. For example: latte, cappuccino, Turkish coffee, americano, milk, chocolate, strawberry cocktails and delicious cakes, though always the same, but ++.
This hotel also has its own pier. This is very convenient, because you can go on any boat trip directly from your hotel. Well, concluding my review, I can say with confidence from myself that this is a very awesome, beautiful, worthy hotel that justifies 100% of its 5 * and, most importantly, the money paid for it. And there are cons in every hotel, this is perhaps the first hotel where I would return again, but I adhere to the principle that you should not go to the same hotel twice, because you will never get the same emotions again. Therefore, always choose hotels carefully according to reviews and always think where you are going!
