After the wedding, we decided to go on vacation to Egypt, we were advised by the Continental Hotel, they praised us. On the Internet, we saw a bunch of beautiful photos, a lot of descriptions that seemed to suit us.
But in fact, when we got there it was a quiet horror. Firstly, the administrators there are bred at prices for rooms with sea views. We managed to get it for 60 bucks for the entire stay, then we found out from people some even paid 20-30 bucks per day of stay. Secondly, we, as newlyweds, expected at least some kind of cake from the hotel (they warned Coral travell in advance that we were newlyweds) - there was nothing like that. The restaurant where we had breakfast, lunch or dinner - this is generally a separate issue - as a dining room. Let me explain - self-service, only 2 people work there for the whole room for cleaning, so sometimes we even had to clear the table ourselves. And when I found a fly on the cake - I was generally shocked! And the la carte restaurants! 2 times you can go to free restaurants (one Moroccan, the other Mexican). At least they didn’t disgrace themselves - when we came to the Moroccan restaurant, there was a very huge selection. Imagine - you open the menu, read the first page - there are 2 menus to choose from, you browse, scroll further - and there... nothing. In short, we laughed, of course, then in full! Mexican allegedly free la carte restaurant - they came, in fact, you can order there for free only in the amount of 100 pounds, if something more - for a fee, and there only seafood, in my opinion, for 90 pounds!
And the pools! One only worked fine - the other was generally half empty!

I must say right away for the youth - the disco in the hotel is terrible (one and a half hours and then no one is dancing)! You can go with animators to the city for a fee to a disco!
The attitude towards Ukrainians and Russians is worse than towards foreigners, and of course, if you pay, they will serve you first of all (although this is wrong - we paid for the ticket anyway - what else should we allow to give the bartender for making us coffee 2 bucks, if he should do it anyway).
The only thing we liked was the sea! Such beauty! I will even say we went on a yacht and stopped in some places to dive - near the hotel the fish and corals were more beautiful!!!!
Therefore, after our vacation, I can draw one conclusion - I will not advise anyone to go there! Terrible hotel, only when the management arrives they start doing something, in general, you should not go there!
