Осталась довольна! Remained satisfied!

I am writing a slightly belated review ,, , just a vacation time, so again looking at the country and the hotel, I read with interest the reviews about the "Sultan"... I got nostalgic and decided to share my impressions))))
And so, I flew with Pegasus from Orenburg, although I myself live in Kazakhstan, there are no complaints about Pegasus, they flew out on time, they returned the same without delay, )) transfer to the hotel exactly 18 minutes (special spotted), with a stop at 2 hotels. I chose the hotel based on the recommendations of the travel agency, multi-day studies of various tours. sites, and also because the hotel is mainly focused on European vacationers, and the pricing policy also played an important role (considering that I was traveling alone, I had to take a "single", and this is always an expensive pleasure). I arrived in Sultan at about 23-00, at the reception I invested 20 bucks in my passport and got a room in the building closest to the sea, overlooking the sea. The room they put me in was pretty good.
matched the photos that are printed on all sites. In the room there is a kettle, instant coffee, a package. tea, cream, sugar, (which was very handy), 2 bottles of 1.5 drinking water, (everything is replenished daily), if you need more, you can ask the maid for more - they will not refuse)) cleaning was carried out regularly and well, left after 1-2 dollars a day, also after 1-2 days I received hearts, swans, flowers from a neighboring bush on my bed)) The hotel is large and green, which is very surprising for a desert country. There is a small art studio where local artists paint and sell paintings. On the territory, in order to get from my building to the restaurant, you need to walk up the stairs on foot. It’s a little stressful in the heat (((Food, I would not call it “very good” (((although, as those who have been to Egypt before said, for Egypt it is 5 with +, but compared to the same Turkey, a weak four.

The vaunted themed national dinners did not impress me (((Thai cuisine is not like Thai, Russian is Russian, and Arabic is every day ((that's what they really cook well is pasta, with you an Italian chef will make it for you with different sauces , but at dinner, there is always a line of Italians behind it (((meat - mostly boiled beef and chicken, desserts are "thin", and apples, wooden pears, grapes and watermelons, melons are absolutely tasteless from fruits ((but I liked the ice cream Drinks at lunch and dinner are brought by the waiters. YES! DOLLAR really reigns here! , I advise you to immediately “feed” the waiter. country), they don't know how to make cocktails, they just mix cola-sprite with vodka. At dinner, the restaurant manager meets the guests and personally helps to get comfortable - Nice!
The Italian kart restaurant serves 4 menus to choose from, the service is slow and tedious, although tasty! If you have a holiday at this time, the staff will bring a cake and sing a song! The beach was disappointing, although it was always half empty (there were no problems with sunbeds) the entrance to the sea is problematic, 3-5 meters knee-deep, and on some days even less (if you manage to upload a photo, pay attention to where the floats are) then buoys and corals . The paths cut in the corals are very slippery, there is nothing to lean on and hold onto....according to my observations, rarely anyone reached their end))) you can actually swim only from a pontoon. Considering that I don’t know how to swim, I floundered from the pontoon in a vest a couple of times and that’s it!... and, of course, the sea is clean and beautiful! The people mostly lie by the pools, it is extremely difficult to find a sunbed there after 10 o’clock, but again, “agreeing” with the employee, I decided for myself the problem of getting up at 7 in the morning)) I really remember and liked the animation!
Thanks a lot guys! Interesting evening shows, especially the "Jackson show"! There is no disco in the hotel, so go with the animators, for 25 bucks from the nose and all dance together to a good “clubbing”! I went on excursions with Pegasus - naturally to the pyramids (I advise you not to save money and fly by plane, because it’s hard by bus, you will arrive tired and broken, and spend most of the next day lying in your room), as well as Luxor (without a walk along the Nile) SUPER! Take a closer look at the prices for papyrus and perfume oils in the shops at the hotel, if you go on excursions, you will be taken to similar shops, and the prices there are more expensive! And no bargaining! (((What really pleasantly surprised me was the service at the hotel! I didn’t expect this from Egypt! The staff is sooo friendly, polite and helpful! Resting alone, I have never been harassed! And it’s not that my vacation coincided with romadan,
but just a correct attitude towards vacationers is a feature of the hotel. The Internet in the hotel is expensive, so forget about this "good of civilization" to call home and friends in Israel, I bought a phone. number with a balance, for 10 minutes for 14 dollars. There is no exchanger in the hotel, there are several ATMs. Pay attention to the tiles laid out in front of the restaurant! Being in standard slates, I managed to screw up on it and get a slight ankle sprain, the employees immediately took me to my room on a bus and dragged a bunch of ALCOHOL!! ! Cocktails! Who does not know, insurance does not cover injuries sustained while intoxicated! But I didn't need medical help. In general, I liked the hotel, if there was a more convenient entrance to the sea, at least a meter deep without corals, I would return to the Sultan again without hesitation. Evaluating the hotel, I will not underestimate the ratings for food, in Egypt there is nothing to compare with anything, I was not hungry))),

I won’t put the same “deuce” for the beach, the hotel is not to blame for the fact that I can’t swim! I recommend the hotel! Have a nice holiday!
