I rested in Taba at the Hilton Hotel from April 19 to May 2.2010, I must say right away that I had a wonderful vacation.
Arrived and departed from Taba Airport, from which the hotel is a 20-minute drive. Tourists flying from Sharm were picked up 7 hours before the plane!
There are no complaints about the hotel. They fed very tasty, dissatisfied, and even more so hungry, they never left the restaurant. There are always a lot of fruits for breakfast - guava, melon, a salad of pineapples, apples, oranges, a couple of times they gave whole peaches and strawberries; omelettes, cheeses, sausages, cereals, yoghurts - the usual European table. For lunch and dinner, there is always a choice of fish, chicken and meat, lamb is fried very tasty. In addition to the main restaurant (buffet), the hotel has 2 more where you are served by waiters. Both are included in the all inclusive system, for a change we went to both. In Marhab, national Egyptian cuisine, in Nelson - Mexican. Everywhere is very cozy, interesting interior.

Waiters are attentive and service is fast. For comparison, on the day of departure, we talked with tourists from their neighboring Movenpick hotel, several people complained that they often left dinner without waiting for their drinks.
We had a standard room, without a balcony, but the sea was still visible), as well as the Egyptian-Israeli border, a checkpoint, and 2 casinos, when else will you see this from the window! )
If you climb the stairs to the 10th floor, you will have an amazing view of 3 countries, very, very beautiful!
I was pleased with the beautifully equipped, green beach, all the palm trees, well-groomed hedges, a lot of hammocks! , You can safely walk on all the lawns. There are 2 bars on the beach - in one European music, in the other - Egyptian. Ice cream can be eaten for free from 11 am to 5 pm.
On the territory of our beach there were coral reefs, not the most beautiful of course, but the fish swim in whole shoals! We took an excursion to Pharaoh's Island not from Pegas guides, but at a diving center, half the price - $25 each. There is nothing to do there anyway, you can’t go to the island itself, the corals are like in a hotel, only more, but we sailed on a yacht for 2 hours, went swimming, looked at the coast.
We went on a 2-day excursion to Jordan and Israel from Pegas, for $ 360 per person, we were very pleased. They did not dare to go from tour companies - savages, since the difference in money turned out to be not significant, and it is not known with whom and where it is scary to spend the night in a foreign country. The tour was built well, not tiring, we did not stand at the borders for very long. We were lucky with the guides, and in Petra and in Israel they told really interesting things.
We bought local silver and stone jewelry in Jordan, the prices are much lower than in the stores near the hotel!
Approximately half of the tourists, maybe a little less, are Russians. the rest are Czechs, Poles, English, French, a lot of different nationalities. The staff mostly speaks good English, many know Russian. All inscriptions in the hotel, menus in restaurants are made in Arabic, English and Russian.

Animators - funny guys) constantly play with tourists with beach and water volleyball, arrange evening show programs - folklore dances, songs, etc. - guest artists perform. During the day I was very pleased with the stretching and belly dance.
Almost every evening in the lobby bar there is live music, Egyptian Ahmed sings, performs European hits in his own arrangement.
In a word, the hotel is worthy. Hilton - he is Hilton!
