Hotel review.
We chose a hotel based on the experience of our travel agency, then we ourselves gave preference to this hotel, judging by the photos of the hotel, rooms and the beach. We decided to go to this hotel.
We arrived, at the reception they gave us regular numbers starting with 41. By the way, these are rooms located in the back of the hotel, it is quiet, calm, no one can be heard or seen, and mosquitoes bite. Although mosquitoes are apparently the BEACH of 2013, since resting last year in Sharm, no mosquitoes were noticed at all.
The room is quite cozy, clean, spacious (they asked for a balcony), a small shower, sink, toilet, and a bidet, everything works and functions, and that's enough. The beds are separate, two pieces, but soft and comfortable, you sleep like a log, although I had nightmares for the first three days, it’s not clear what this is connected with. The balcony overlooked the pool, beauty, and most importantly, as I wrote above, peace and quiet, almost no one swam in the pool during our entire stay.
A little about the beach, there is a place to stay, they came at 09.30 calmly found free places, the beach is really wide, you can swim at high tide on corals and with fish that are watching you in large numbers. There are places where you can take pictures with minimal or almost no people and extra eyes. We saw several times a small but beautiful spotted stingray, which swam almost to the feet.
The reefs are beautiful, especially if you take a little to the right of the floating pontoon (More variety of corals and new species of fish constantly appearing), by the way, during our stay at the hotel, a solid pier was being completed, with two stairs descending to the sea. The old, floating pier may have been standing since the day the hotel was founded, which is no less than since 1999. Sometimes I was surprised by their apathetic desire to develop and bring innovations to the hotel.
As for the food, the food is actually ordinary and, in my opinion, the same as in other hotels in which we rested Hilton and Maritim. Honestly, I didn’t care much about food, as I ate only conditionally meat and protein foods. As for many reviews that there is nothing to eat, apparently these are spoiled and overly spoiled persons. Demanding and wishing to see something that cannot be there. I'll tell you comrades. My dear compatriots, there is something to eat there, meat, side dishes, sweets, and all other delicious evil spirits, up to hamburgers with french fries on the beach.
About drinking, alcohol is the same as in other hotels we have been to, that is, in Maritime and Hilton. The booze is all local, you can drink it, “Torks”! , The beer flows like water and is also on the level, for an appetizer of dried flounder and pike, which we brought with us from Tyumen is the very thing. Attention: we recommend taking dried fish with you in sufficient (larger) quantities for you, do not be stingy and buy it, because on our previous trips, there was not enough dried fish for a beer, and there is nowhere to take it there.
Stock up on cigarettes!!! ! Take this infection twice as much, since you will smoke more there, cigarettes there are expensive $ 5-10, and absolutely tasteless and disgusting.
Regarding the attitude, we were robbed, 7000 Russian rubles were stolen from the safe! At the reception in the morning we booked seats on the bus to the Old Market, to go to the Feres fish restaurant. Before the trip, they deliberately looked at how much cash we had, in particular, in my wallet and my wife.
Upon arrival, they discovered the loss of 5.000 rubles + 1.000 rubles from my wallet. + wife 1000 rubles. Total: 7000 rubles.
The moral of this fable is that when the security guard was called, he began to carry nonsense that the safe cannot be opened and that it is impossible. It is not possible to prove anything to them, the hotel management apparently also knows about the periodically occurring theft from safes in the hotel and only shrug. In general, 3 days before departure, they ruined the rest at the end with their impudent theft. Know that the safes have a universal key, which of course they know (In case of forgetting the code by vacationers, they open the safes like fakirs, pressing the cherished six digits on your safe).
After that, we really understood how Russians are treated in Sharm, just like cattle. The attitude towards Europeans is diametrically opposed, they are ready to creep at every opportunity, given that the Russians leave more tips than the Italians, Germans and British, combined in one visit.
Another point, somewhere in the reviews we read that money was stolen in this hotel, but we didn’t think that this would happen to us, because we were confident in the integrity of the SERATON hotel staff, otherwise we wouldn’t call it again.
Dear comrades, weigh the pros and cons of this hotel, and choose the best option for yourself.
