Впечатления о Sultan Gardens Resort (зима 2009) Impressions of Sultan Gardens Resort (winter 2009)

My review : )))))))
The hotel is good. It is possible that this was influenced by a visit to the Egyptian Tourism Commission : )))
The hotel owner is Canadian. This hotel was part of the Holiday Inn hotel chain some time ago. Can give Sultan Gardens a hard Egyptian 5. We went for 2 weeks with AI.
I want to confirm the construction data - indeed, construction is taking place on both sides. However, this does not interfere with the rest, even if your room is next to the fence. Because close enough to the airport, sometimes in the evenings you can hear the rumble of the plane, but this also does not burden at all. The food is quite varied.
breakfast - vegetables, scrambled eggs, fried eggs, boiled eggs, pancakes with a variety of fillings and sauces, fruits, cereals and breakfast cereals with milk / yogurt, fried sausages of various varieties, beans with gravy, a lot of buns, pies, cakes, pastries.

lunch/dinner - lots of different meats (no pork), poultry, seafood, variety of side dishes, lots of appetizers, red/white wine, juice (yupi), local soft drinks, vegetables with salad dressings, lots of cakes and desserts + cakes from ice cream.
All meals were delicious. The only thing - a couple of times came across small and medium-sized pebbles in the gravy. But, thank God, no broken teeth.
The territory is medium in size, two heated pools. There was almost no wind, which was insanely important for our holiday. The waiters are all pleasant, many understand and even speak Russian (who has difficulty with English). This hotel is positioned mainly for Russians and Italians, which are the most in the hotel. Animation program for a strong 4. We somehow didn’t get to the discos : )))
There are mosquitoes in the evening! And during the day, sticky flies : ) On the territory of the hotel there is a bank office + ATM, shops with souvenirs, books about Egypt, photographic films and underwater cameras, jewelry, cosmetics, papyri, clothes. Russian-speaking girls sit in Guest Relations.
The service staff - in particular the cleaners - beg for tips, forgetting to put clean towels, spreading bedspreads, not supplying shampoo / shower gel.
In the evenings, if you are in the room, and not walking anywhere, noise from residents who are in a state of intoxication can bring discomfort... alas. In general, the staff is quite friendly and accommodating.
If you or your friends have a birthday during your stay at the hotel, you can be congratulated colorfully and loudly at dinner, provided that you inform about the holiday in advance (check with the representatives of your tour operator at the hotel).
About the pools: there are 2 heated pools on the territory - one for a quiet pastime, there is no music playing, no animation team and no entertainment at all except a bar; the second is for fun and children with a slide where animators entertain. In order to distinguish them - carefully look at the signs by the pool.

Tips: if you need to break large dollar bills into small ones, contact the Taxi department, they will gladly exchange you in bills convenient for you. But it is better not to use their services unnecessarily, because. the cost of a taxi is 2 times higher than you can get by city taxis. In order to take a taxi, you just need to go outside the gates of the hotel territory and you will immediately be blinked by the headlights of the taxi drivers waiting for the client.
