DO NOT BOOK!!! This hotel’s staff was a mess, Rania from the reception area tried to steal from us. We had booked a room with a pool view and she requested 30 eauros for the upgrade! Believe it or not you have to pay 15 euros to have access to the wifi. We paid in egyptian money and she didnt give us the change back. When we got to the room she only gave us one key because the replacement keys are 5 euros to replaced . The room was hot at nights !!! Stay away from this hotel ! Such a bad experience!!!!!! When you are in vacation you dont want to be worring about thiefs jn the hotel !!!

I can’t say enough about how clean the resort is and how professional and friendly the staff is! From the second I walked in, checking in, the restaurants, pools, spa area, beach, rooms even the lobby area are spotless. Every single staff member from management to house keeping is beyond nice, understanding and was tasked to make my stay extremely satisfying. I highly recommend the resort and can’t wait to go back and visit again.

Few positives but it was ok

The hotel reception is nothing special, neither is the restaurant or food but for a short stay it was good enough. A number of staff were miserable and unhelpful and pool bar staff either hopeless or more interested in their phones. The resort is huge and we weren’t given a map so that was a bit useless as we had to work out where everything was in the dark! The room we got had a lovely terrace. The room itself was large and clean and comfortable. The pool area sun loungers were nearly all reserved with towels around 7:15am and, annoyingly, the areas all had sand. My son happily played in a quiet area pool and in the wave pool. The guy whose job it was to smooth the sand at the end of the day with a roller lacked care as he happily bashed into my lounger three time’s without an apology. Food quality was negligible although quite a selection. Soft drinks/juices were of a glow in the dark colour and unpalatable. We ordered pizzas at the beach bar as part of the all-inclusive package but these were tasteless. Would I return? Probably not

They have 2 kinds of discriminations: against Egyptian, and against Muslims. They don’t allow lots of services to the Egyptians like late breakfast or dinner, and they allow foreigners only. If you speak Egyptian Arabic, they will treat you badly. They will start with providing a bad room, and prevent lots of services from you. I booked my hotel from Canada and paid in US dollars. I gave them a Canadian passport. Even though, they treated me as a second class person. They prevent Muslims women who are waring a muslim swimming suites from going some of the pool. On the other hand, they don’t have any issue if a non Muslim women to use the same pool even if they ware any dress not suitable for swimming. They don’t have any of these rules written to avoid being in trouble. They just tell you this is the rules and they force you to apply it. I will never go to this hotel again. Everyone supposed to stand against the discrimination and avoid go to this hotel till they change their roles of discriminating the Egyptian and the Muslims.

Nice hotel. However,

The staff were nice except for the reception they were not friendly. Food in the restaurant was good and has lots of verity. Food in the bars is not good enough, it is a left over of some items from the breakfast. Juice provided is artificial juice not natural one. There is a discrimination against the Muslim women as they prevent them from using some of the swimming pools. They don't accept Muslims swimming suites. They allaw the musim swimming suits in 2 swimming pools only. Nigh shows was good. The first hour is disignted for kids. العاملين فى الفندق كانويتعاملون بطريقه مناسبه ماعدا موظفى الاستقبال كانوا يتعاملون بطريقه جافه الاكل فى المطعم شهى و فيه تنوع فى الاطباق الاكل على البارات و حول حمامات السباحه غير متنوع و يبدوا انه ما تبقى من الافطار العصاءر مصنعه و لا يوجد عصاءر طبيعيه يوجد اطهاد ضد السيدات المسلمات فى حمامات السباحه حيث يمنع النزول بمايوه المحجبات فو بعض حمامات السباحه و يسمح لهم بالنزول فى ٢حمام سباحه فقط العروض الليليه ظريفه و يخصص الساعه الولى للاطفال

Not what we expected from such a brand

we were supposed to stay there for 7 days. We ended up checking out after 24 hours! Food is not good at all, hotel smells stinky and old, beach is very far from the receiption area and you will need a shuttle to get there, beach is not swimmable when the tide is out, rooms are old and not clean. We are Canadian and we have a family of four and we are used to travel to the Red Sea every year. This is by far our first time to have a bad experience in Hurghada. Don’t stay in that hotel to save money. There are much nicer hotels in Makadi area.
