I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the location was fantastic with lovely sea views and friendly staff, the rooms were far from being the luxurious getaway I had hoped for. The cleanliness left much to be desired, and the facilities felt outdated. It's a shame because the value for money aspect could really be improved.

Rooms

The rooms were quite shabby and not as clean as I expected, with old furniture and some necessary repairs needed, like broken lamps and peeling paint. I rated it a 4 out of 10 as it certainly didn't meet the 5-star luxury promise.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location is absolutely beautiful, with an amazing beach and great pool areas that are perfect for families. However, the dining options left much to be desired, as the food was often dirty and not very appetizing. The rooms had a nice balcony but were not very clean, which detracted from my stay.

The hotel has a stunning location with excellent sea views from the rooms, which really made my stay special. Unfortunately, the rooms were quite dated and not as clean as I expected, falling short of the luxury level they advertise. The service could be overwhelming at times, with staff frequently approaching to sell services. Overall, it's a mixed bag; great views and location but needs a lot of work in terms of room quality and service approach.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location is fantastic, right by the beach and perfectly sheltered from the wind, which is a big plus. However, the rooms felt very dated and not as clean as I would expect, especially for something advertised as deluxe. The service was friendly and helpful, but the dining options were just okay. Overall, while the view was nice, I think the hotel could really benefit from some updates.

I recently stayed at this hotel and while it had some great qualities, there were definitely areas that need improvement. The location is fantastic, right in the city center, and the staff, especially Mr. Mohamed at reception, were extremely friendly and helpful. However, the rooms were a bit outdated and had some cleanliness issues, and the dining experience left much to be desired. Overall, there are pros and cons to consider, but it’s worth checking out if you focus on the positives.

The hotel has an excellent location right on the Red Sea, making it easy to enjoy the beach and pool. The rooms were clean and had a lovely balcony with stunning views, though they could use some updates. The staff was generally friendly and attentive, except for one instance. Dining options were good, especially at the Italian restaurant, but breakfast could have been more diverse. Overall, it offers great value for money, but watch out for a few minor service issues.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. While the location offered stunning sea views and a convenient proximity to the beach, the rooms left much to be desired, feeling more like a 3-star experience rather than the 5 stars advertised. The service from the staff was friendly, especially Sameh at reception, but the overall management needs improvement. The dining options could use more variety, but the homemade ice cream was a highlight.
