Why Egypt? Why Hurghada? Yes, all because it is not the first time in Egypt !!! ! 2-3 times a year, but not in the city itself, you can’t relax there, but outside (Makadi!!! ) and it’s not about fish and corals, you’ve already seen enough. The climate of Egypt for me personally and the sea is the most important and the best.
Why Pyramiz?
It just happened this time, the vacation dates changed, and I had to buy vouchers within 3 days. Of course, what we needed and wanted was no longer there, this year the demand exceeded the supply. In general, we decided to go to LTI Pyramisa Beach Resort Sahl Hasheesh 5 * and only because the location of the hotel is not within the city, but in the new resort area of Sahl Hasheesh.
The hotel is located approximately 25-30 km from the airport in a new resort area.
And in this zone, only one hotel (out of many being built there) has opened its doors to tourists. LTI Pyramisa … is a lonely hotel in the midst of the mass development of this stretch of desert. The first impression, and it remained the only good one, is the hall adjacent to the reception and the lobby bar, its scale and grandeur is impressive, and we were also lucky that only two families of 2 people came to the hotel, i. e. took little time to settle. Putting 20 bucks in the passport, we were quickly identified by numbers. Why such a large reception, we understood after a while, the hotel is not half completed and is designed in the future for at least 2000 people. And all who admire this hotel today, when resting with a load of 300 people. in August and ran at 6.00. in the morning to take sun loungers by the pool, they will remember their impressions in 5 months, unless of course they go there again.
In short, first +, and - then.
From + :
1) A room for 20 bucks with a view of the inner territory of the hotel, the pool and the sea (1105).
2) Large swimming pool (but in the future it will not be enough for 1000 people)
3) Distance and location to the sea.
4) The sea (but this is only due to the fact that we were one of the first to swim there at all).
5) Bus to Hurghada 3 times a day for 3 Euro per person. Roundtrip.
Well, now about the rest - this or how you judge for yourself (but we only rest in 5 * and we know what it is and how).
The hotel was 40% - Germans, 50% - Poles and 5-10% Russian speakers.
I treat the Germans calmly, we always rest where there are a lot of them and well-mannered, but we met the Poles on vacation for the first time and I can tell you this is KASHMAR, DURDOM, and when there are so many of them it’s simply unbearable. I do not know if they first went to the resort.
The hotel area is small, the hotel itself resembles a beehive, honeycomb numbers, bee tourists. On the very first day, we were faced with the fact that, having gone out to the pool, there was not one free sun lounger and even a place to put it around. SUPER! To the question "HOW TO RELAX? " Pool Boy responded with a gesture, shrugging, shaking his head, pointing to his watch and saying LUNCH. From all this, we realized that before dinner we were not lucky to throw our two persons even on one sun lounger. And as it turned out later, after dinner, too. We went to the beach, where the picture is similar, but only the place, that is, but strained with sun loungers.
The first day we skipped, exploring the surroundings, there is nothing to study there, everything is in the palm of your hand and around the construction site of the century. Then, of course, Poole and Beachboy began to bring sun loungers from somewhere, but the first week of our stay, as it was not disgusting and reminiscent of socialism, we had to get up before the sun and run to take a sun lounger. It was the first time with us.
The hotel has one restaurant, a reception bar, 2 pool bars and a beach bar.
In the restaurant for two weeks there was no variety every day the same thing.
With the quality of food, I can say that something that was suspicious or not very visible was not taken. And sometimes the appearance of the products did not cause a desire to consume them, and the smell of vegetables, you yourself understand what happens if you put it on the table several times.
There are no juices in the restaurant, not for breakfast, not for lunch, not for dinner, only gas, water, water in the cooler (not even mineral water), UPI-type water, wine and local beer. Juice is available only in bars and from packages of mango and guava. Ice cream is available at one pool bar. Cocktails are made like whiskey and soda (which is not), rum and cola. They don't make good cocktails, they don't know how. And yet, if you want to live this period of life in peace, do not add ice (water? ), Better drink warm or chilled in another way.
Territory
Territory, in fact, there is no greenery either. The palm trees are all tied up, they have not yet taken root and there are very few, although there is a construction site nearby and there are already large, beautiful palm trees growing there and there are many of them. This is also an indicator of stardom and hotel status in Egypt. The hotel resembles the letter "SH" - turned by three buildings to the sea, connecting the three buildings - this is the reception. Between buildings 1 and 2, which are now functioning, there is a large pool with a depth of 30 cm. up to 155cm. Between buildings 2 and 3, a swimming pool with a slide and 3 buildings are being built. There are about 300 rooms in the buildings multiplied by 3 buildings, and even if for 2 people. at least 1800 people have already turned out. Neither the territory nor those pools that will be 100% there will withstand such a quantity.
In the reception building there are still not quite finished - built shops, I'll tell you the prices you can't even imagine. They usually say that the farther from the city, the more expensive, but here it seems to be the edge of geography and to the local civilization as a way back home. And when you are frankly surprised not for bargaining, explaining that in Egypt you already know everything inside and out, you are very dissatisfied that you can’t heat and sell a poop at the price of a gold bar. Do not buy anything there, because prices are 3-4 times higher than the prices of Hurghada, if anything, then you need to go to the city.
ADVICE:
The bus to the city runs according to the schedule 3 times a day. The best and most convenient way to go is at 15.00. flight, and back on a flight that leaves the hotel at 19.00, i. e. at 21.00 back. To town approx. 30-40 min. the local Shuttle Bus leaves, in the city around 16.00. and I can immediately say that 2 hours will run, you won’t have time to blink an eye, and therefore I advise it like this. From the place to which they will bring you and take you back, so do not rush, buy everything they offer there. Walk slowly along the highway to the right to McDonald's and beyond - it will all be the only, central street with many shops and suvs. shops. After going there, you will understand what you need and know the prices, at the same time you will see how Hurghada lives and how tourists relax in city hotels. Bargaining is a must.
There is a pharmacy tent among the shops, decent (I mean not by appearance but by filling with medicines) it is difficult to name it. And if you or your children get sick (fever, poisoning, ears), do not self-medicate, our medicines will not help there, and do not go to the pharmacy or even to the local doctor. !!!!!!!
It's been verified. I will not tell a terrible story with the chase, but I will only say the following, contact the insurance.
The rooms are ordinary, as in all hotels in Egypt, the standard Dbl. Bathrooms are small, showers too, closed with a curtain, not glass. Door, there is a hairdryer, bath accessories, no bathrobes and slippers, 2 towels per person. (small and large). The room has a small empty refrigerator, plain water is given 1 bottle. per day per person in a restaurant against signature.
The service is not up to par and leaves much to be desired, everyone pretends that they do not understand Russian. Maybe everything was great in the first days of the hotel when there were 40-50 people, but when by the end of August there were 300 people, they ran out of steam and all the friendliness ended there.
In the restaurant for the first time I met with the fact that it was not the hotel guests who were the first to run to eat, but the entire staff. For example, lunch from 12:30 p. m. until 15.00 and exactly from 12.30 p. m. all the staff in the restaurant, and the Egyptians sit on duty eating, talking, smoking, and just by 15 o'clock everything will settle down and they leave. From experience in other hotels, everything is done differently, first guests, and in 30 minutes. before the end of the work of restaurants for vacationers, the attendants are already on their way. Food, believe me, is not the best, who says so, does not know what St. squeezed juices for breakfast, menus for children and diet menus, themed days of national cuisine, Italian, Oriental, European, or poultry or fish on coals, etc.
In the “a la carte” restaurant, it’s easy - I crawled allotted for the “Italian” restaurant and “Fish” (a la carte), it seems, but there was no one except the sitting hotel managers for papers and tables littered with tablecloths from the laundry no one was observed. Let me remind you again in the bars: in the lobby - only drinks, a large pool bar - drinks and ice cream (and that's it), pool bar No. 2 - drinks, pizza, hot dogs and soup at lunch, a beach bar - only drinks.
Sport
There is a gym, you can visit from 13 years old and in (special) sports shoes. Massage for a fee, tattoos are drawn from 10 bucks, braids are woven (price? ), There is a football field, animators do aqua aerobics and gymnastics during the day.
Sea beach
The sea, I wrote this in + the hotel, while the cleanest and 2 minutes walk, it was the same for us, to the pool, to the sea. With the entrance to the sea - it is ambiguous and incomprehensible to overcome 7-10 meters of some kind of layers of unknown origin, but these are not corals, some kind of stony and muddy, you still need special shoes. But the bottom is perfectly visible, so you can see where and what you step on. Animation, no entertainment, although a large team of animators and Russian speakers as well. There are no discos. And for animation as such, there is not even a place.
During the day, a simple animation - like who will spit next with a spoon - or guess where they threw a spoon into the pool and get it. Dance lessons are just a name, two hip movements and two foot stomp, that's the whole dance was observed throughout the entire stay. In the evening, "live music" is in quotation marks and some other rubbish. There are evening dances for children 20 min. "MINI DISCO". Animators called to the disco at the Havana Club and gave flyers, the neighbors went, they called the whole action “sucks”. There was nothing for children except for a mini disco, our children are very bored there. The children's club was only for the Germans, so they were engaged with them and they walked painted around the territory. I agree with those who write that the hotel is for "self-sufficient" (in quotation marks) adults who do not need anything or anyone, not for young people (stay at home), and not even for owners of children.
Yes, the hotel is only for the mentally disabled and old maids who did not hate everyone and for everything.
The hotel does not pull and does not correspond to 5 *, it has not yet been tested for star rating, the hotel is not in any directory of hotels in Egypt and Hurghada, the phones indicated are not working, this information was checked by the RESO insurance company in Egypt, we were searched for 1.30 hours. The hotel is not listed as open. You can write for a long time, there were two weeks, there is something to say, just remember everything, oh well.
In general, I'll drop the pictures, see for yourself. They were there because it happened.
