Beautiful beach but unfriendly staff and bad food, also all inclusive does not include cocktails, snacks, orange juice or shisha. So the only options to eat are the buffets in one single restaurant with very limited time.
A nice facility but the cleanliness leaves a lot to be desired.
Fortunately, we have found opposite the hotel the cafe that a German woman has operated, this could help me immediately and without medication. A Turkish mocha with lemon, helped immediately and the holiday was then saved ...
We will not visit the hotel anymore.
Super beach, food, reef. Rooms clean but need renovation - loose Gierek
The rooms leave something to be desired: the hot water is very capricious and the paintings are not of early youth. The bathroom is a bit dilapidated. The hotel gardens are beautiful and the beach very pleasant. The food served in the restaurant is good or even excellent. Alcohols are infamous
Hotel friendly and staff not rude. But incredibly noisy every night. To flee for those who want to rest or recover for example a day of diving.
Very nice staff but lovely stay management to review as no entertainment, the beach bar is outdated and poorly maintained, beach chairs are damaged; the mattresses torn apart by lovely staff at the restaurant and for the rooms. At the reception very average. It could be great if handled well.
Super staff all friendly and helpful dreamlike facility for young and old
For the price a good hotel, great pool and clean beach with chairs under the palm trees. The dive center is right next to the hotel which you can walk along the beach. The food is perfectly fine and offers something for every taste. Especially delicious is the dessert buffet.
Staff partly very rude. If you booked ONLY half board, you were hardly noticed at dinner. You had to call several times to even get a drink.
It was really nice! Very well maintained area and the staff always friendly and helpful.
It was my first holiday in Egypt and I liked it in the area great. Everything was clean and tidy. If I had problems or questions I could always contact the front desk and I was helped there. I can recommend it and would gladly come back.
Old beautiful facility, which was already renovated in the area of the rooms.
The area is very green and well maintained!
Staff everywhere very friendly and helpful.
Unfortunately the sea is only suitable for swimming and because of the dead corals there are only a few fish left, not interesting for snorkeling!
Service outstanding staff, varied food, especially dinner, the rooms are comfortable, the beach is more remarkable, and also the swimming pool with a unique get together around the bathroom, and the beach allows families to gather in one place. Evergreen plants do not rivaled any place I went to him in the Red Sea
Vitiated poverty paragraphs team and made some handle animation air-conditioners and TV sets.
But overall the place is great for the price and I will repeat the visit, God willing ..
Was 20 years ago regular guest, was very good and very clean at the time, today I can not report it
We were very happy there in March 2013. In particular, the service is very good to mention. We will be back in 2014.
Never again!!! absolutely impossible!! - - - -Door lock defective
- Dirt on "fresh" sheets
- Bulky waste in the facility
- Sawed chairs
- Mold in the bathroom
- Dog shit on the beach
- Loungers broken cushions "rocked" - pool only half full.
- Including salmonella poisoning
"great vacation"
Not recommended the hotel is old and very neglected. The only good thing is the sea, the rest is bad the service, the food and the animation. All in all, you should avoid this hotel and avoid it.
I was there a long time ago in December, there were few guests available, but everything in German hands. The area looked good, nice green. Our room was rather modest. The main restaurant has just been rebuilt and renovated. I was surprised that no bar was available, only beach bar and evening was always very fresh, so we spent the evenings in the room and relaxed.
The staff is super nice and friendly with the motto Welcome home, the food in the small restaurant was very good but not great (why?). The beach was very nice, but the beach chairs were in very bad condition.
The pool area was nice, disturbing was the superfluous, very loud music. I have not understood until today, there were only 3 people around the pool and the animator has turned the music all day so loud, although these 3 people did not want it, strange. For a week of vacation you need for the pool ear plugs (6 pairs), 3 fly swatters and possibly water wings .
Note: The ravens at the pool scared me, because they were only lukewarm, once I was almost attacked by one, because she has thrown an eye on my cake and in the end got hold of the.
I liked the grounds and the people, but because of the loud music I will not book it again.
not clean and we were robbed twice in the room ... the one at the reception didn't care
Top hotel, very nice service, quiet very pleasant holiday.
Small, friendly hotel almost a family, one-story building, greenery, water corals with fishes (more than a hotel Shams)
The service is great, you are served at the food and you get the drinks in glasses. Rooms are clean but the hotel is quite old and some is broken and looks unattractive. I was only 2.5 days here so I took a cheap hotel. And had no great expectations. Price performance but I think top. Directly on the beach is a small coral reef to see. Great for snorkelers. For children in the water who play and romp want a big danger. I would not come here with a child. The offer for kids is insufficient. And as I said, the nearby coral reef means a high risk of injury for the children.
I can not comment on the hotel, but I can say with certainty that the beach bar is the best far and wide.
In the evening, you can sit in the dark under the stars and, with a bit of luck, you can see shooting stars. The music is mostly international oldies which runs in a pleasant volume.
The waiter Ferris is a sensation in itself.
Although we do not live in the hotel, we often come on every holiday on some cappuccinos, mango juices and tea in the bar. Under warranty, he welcomes us next year very warmly and knows what we drink. With him stands and falls the charm of this bar in which one just feels good.
The hotel is very poor
It is not clean at all and there is a very, very large amount of ants
Family hotel. Great staff, nice beach .... bar class, for a relaxing vacation
As always a dream - just perfect - soooo lovely people eating great food - there are better rooms than what we have - but we do not want them - we would have another room service and we love mahmut and monis! We only come here - never would we go to another hotel - priceless this hospitality !!!! If I read negative review - then I would like to see their home - impossible and then for soooo little money - you want more - then pay more !!!!!!!!!!! IMPOSSIBLE
Slow service buy very polite and friendly.
Beach is great.Food also.
Windsurfing is good thanks to Tito. Everything else is compromise.
Food, breakfast and evenings very good, friendly Kelner, unfortunately early only juice for al inclusive, are still on the improvement of little things, now also juice and ice at the pool, satellite programs are missing German channels and bad reception Wi-Fi for a fee, so only 4 stars, gladly again
The hotel is in a very bad condition. Do not understand the positive reviews. Room dirty even after room service still dirty. Food was always the same mostly lukewarm or already cold. Animation team makes nothing except rumlaufen and puatschen and loud music run. Beach ok.Essen like in the canteen just tastes lousy .... and that should be cooks ??? Only the reception works well with Mr. Khalid. For us once and never again.
An old hotel. The decor of the rooms is simple and functional. Staff is friendly and helpful. Tipping in between immediately increases these efforts. Hotel area is small and manageable. Everyone knows everyone after a few days. This is especially pleasant when traveling with a child. <br/> Animation is still in its infancy. It lacks the concept behind it. Kids playground a total disaster. <br/> Also the so-called gym. Both areas dirty, germinated and not recommended. Food was good and tasty. The kitchen crew was trying to change. It was okay ... WIFI is chargeable and uses hotel descriptions in all public areas. Unfortunately, this is not the case. Several times a day you fly out of the net and have to dial in again. And in time you receive news from home. Can be a cost trap under certain circumstances. The beach is clean and equipped with enough beach chairs. Beautiful reefs in the vicinity ..... always happy to go back .... And I was back in the meantime. It's hard to describe. Either you feel well here or not. There are always a few things that are in urgent need of improvement, but you can still experience a warmth here, which I have rarely experienced. It's hard for me to say goodbye ... what can I say? After the trip is before the trip. So it is
A dreamlike area, everyone was very nice and I could relax really well. I will definitely be back.
Beach very nice for swimming. Snorkeling possibilities restricted.
the staff is very nice and eager for the guests.
Rooms clean but partly quite worn.
The hotel restaurant unfortunately has canteen flair. You can only eat inside and the selection and variations of the food is very limited.
Basically, every day there are the same vegetables, rice, potatoes, fish and chicken.
for a 3 1/2 star hotel ok. but would not go back
Great facility. Nice personel. Food is not a star kitchen but still sufficient and delicious. I would definitely come back again.
Wonderful everything..accommodation, cleanliness, table, service, location.Right near the beaches, turquoise water, full of palm trees..A true oasis of peace ..
We spent a wonderful vacation there ...
T
Perfect service, good hotel, excelent food.ideal for vacation with infants.
I enjoyed staying there especially the restaurant we enjoyed the place and the food the only negative was the bathroom in the rooms.
Hotel great. Staff very nice. You get another room if you are dissatisfied. Air conditioning was repaired immediately. Food very tasty. Something for everyone. For Egypt ratio clean and tidy. Waiter Abdul super nice and funny. Reminds me of singer Prince. Great garden facility. Reception ganz great. Nearby only about 6 shops. Outside links from the hotel. Very pushy people. Hotel is very remote. Very quiet. If you want to relax is right here. Own diving station. And not expensive. Boots rode between 20- 40 and maybe more. Depends on. What you like. Wheelchair just. Hardly Stufen.internet 10 for a week. No intrusive staff. All very reserved. Really recommendable.
The place is good, food is great but service employees are very awkward, they need to learn how to deal with a customer in a proper manner.
Stay in August 2018. Rooms ok, cleaning ok, bathrooms, according to earlier opinions, require renovation. Food very good and varied. I do not understand the opinion that the meals in this hotel are monotonous ... Warm breakfasts (scrambled eggs, omelette - we choose the side dishes, fried eggs, hard-boiled eggs, beans, sausages, toasts, etc.) and cold meats and cheese (some weak vs our Polish ones, so I do not recommend it), various salads, cereals, jams, honey, spreads, milk, yoghurt, etc.
In the afternoon there was always a choice of at least two types of meat, plus fish, usually fried and coated in eggs. About twice a week there was a barbecue (mainly chicken + delicious bread). A very large selection of vegetables (fresh and cooked) and salads. As a side dish of rice, baked potatoes or mashed potatoes. There is also always a pasta stand - you can choose the toppings yourself. For lunch, one soup to choose from, two for dinner (usually creams) but tasty. The buffet with fruit and sweetness is always filled with variety. There really was nothing to complain about :-)
Every day, 2 bottles of 0.5l of water per head - collected in the Shisha bar.
Beach small but sufficient and nice with a nice little coral reef. For comparison, we were on the beach in the hotel next door and much worse (poorer water life), so we quickly returned to ours :-)
Those who dive will have close proximity to the German base, which is on the premises of the hotel. Affordable prices, experienced team, super prepared and very well acquainted with the surrounding diving sites.
Double pool (one deeper, the other for kids). Sufficient, although sometimes there were battles for sunbeds :-) and it was dense in the water. Then you can always move to the beach which is right behind the pools. There are showers with sweet water - you can rinse yourself in the pool and even more so after swimming in the sea. From 10 am - animations and music by the pool, evening entertainment by the restaurant (mainly for children / young people).
The service was very nice and nice. They make sure that everything is ok. We changed the room due to the dripping air conditioning and no water pressure in the bathroom - it was without any problems, despite the high season. We did not go on trips, because in Egypt it was already the nth time and we have seen almost everything. However, we went for a walk outside the hotel. Unfortunately, nothing interesting, but still good, because the hotel is not located in total desolation - there are residential blocks, shops, cafes / restaurants opposite the hotel. There are local people, there is life :-). Note the prices - we paid $ 5 for a few trifles in the store. Apparently not wealth, but I am convinced that the prices for locals are 10x lower. you have to know Arabic numerals, haggle or if you don't want to, just give the shopkeeper more money.
Good hotel with all good food. Rather corresponds to a 3 * hotel, rather than 4.
Great Animation Team, good food, beautiful outdoor.
Nice for relax and families, Place also for scuba diver...I recommend Abc dream divers center in Safaga
Beautiful resort. Room nice staff very nice. The food was not really a hit now. But the beach, the garden, just fantastic. Unbeatable price / performance. Unfortunately, the elderly think they determine when to laugh.
A very nice well-kept area, especially not so spacious. Fantastic beach and crystal clear water, perfect for snorkeling. We had a very nice and renovated room. We can not understand how some people complain about food, there is always an abundant choice and it always tastes good. The personnel is very friendly and courteous. We will definitely be back. Have fun on holiday, greet Piet and Sandra.
The surroundings around the hotel, the beach - nice, food can be, the fruit practically do not serve. Rooms tragedy, the standard does not even deserve two stars, all old ragged, and worst of all, it's not very clean. 12-11-2018
At first you think where you ended up here. But after standing in the lobby, the friendly staff greeted you and turned into the courtyard, it was pure relaxation. Here and there are points for improvement, but on the whole great.
Partly older complex with charm and a wonderful green garden with tall palm trees inside. Staff throughout the complex, friendly and helpful. A shop with original Egyptian natural oils and essences according to ISO certification is in this complex.
Only to be recommended
Abdo the owner and consultant,
is courteous and competent when it comes to food.
This is my second time staying at Lotus Bay Beach Resort, and I am very happy and not the last time.
The hotel has earned the 5 star status.
Here you will find peace, the staff very helpful, the food was excellent
Thank you, I will stay your regular guest
An intimate hotel with long-standing regulars. Mainly Germany aged 50+. Hotel about 60 km from Hurghada airport and 6 km from Safaga. A great place for people who prefer tranquility and snorkelling / diving at a nearby reef over night life. I have spent two weeks here for many years in March or April and two weeks in September or December.
Very nice small hotel complex also family atmosphere with very well liked white sandy beach with beach bar by the sea
Rooms are okay, air conditioning is there, bedside tables also and per room a small terrace or balcony. Some bathrooms have a shower curtain, others a "fixed" cabin. If you expect luxury, then you should book another hotel. If a down-to-earth hotel is enough, you can stay here without worries.
The pool was clean, actually the whole time facility is very clean, even the beach is.
The recreational opportunities are manageable, but adequate. Within 2 minutes on foot you can reach 2 diving centers (Orca and Barakuda), as well as windsurfing.
Of course you can on site book excursions from the hotel, but it is better to book excursions in advance from home.
What negatively noticed is that the Internet in the present time is still charged (1 week costs 10 euros) and permanently collapses or is so slow that Internet sites can not be loaded.
And the food could be more varied and a little better, it's okay, after 3 days it just starts to get bored and does not taste good anymore.
The staff were especially positive, they were very friendly at every day and night! Great team!
In addition to the complex is a pharmacy, which can be recommended to any tourist in case of problems without hesitation! We had stomach problems and we were helped very well there.
If we travel to Egypt again, we would probably book this hotel again.
Very well-kept area, the rooms are older, but still clean. Pool and beach super well maintained. Located on the beach. Pool and beach are not 50 mtrs. apart. There is always staff nearby who will help you immediately. A special praise goes to the lovely entertainers .... always good mood, a lot of program .... just great. The food is ok ... is not Germany ... you know where to go ... I recommend Lotus Bay !!!! Definitely fly back next year !!!
From the moment we arrived, we got an impression of the place, that it is of a lower level than what we expected, the reception is old and not air-conditioned, and the furniture inside needs to be renovated. Even the employees themselves are not in good shape, you feel that you are in the country inside the pension. But it is true that the receptionist was very polite in addition to giving us a room wider than what we had booked at the same cost that we had booked.
As for the room, it is modest to a great extent, clean and has a good air conditioner.
The view is beautiful, but at night it needs lighting. The place is quite dark
Basin is not clean and there is no one on it to monitor the children.
The adequate feature is that the distance between Albasin and the sea is very small.
The sea is clean and nice, but there are only limited hot drinks, Pepsi, Ships and Mirinda, but something called IC Cola that tastes bad, not even juices. Of course, there is no concept of snacks.
As for the food, it is not varied, but it is eaten, so you always keep two types of fish, either grilled or fried, or meat or chicken, and you always have rice and pasta. The only need for diversity is the authorities.
As for the sweet, at all times, most of the sweets, from baked goods or toast, remain tasty, even baked goods remain dry, not fresh, and they have little labor.
All in all, I couldn't say that I could go to this place again
Good budget hotel. If you are interested in a beautiful beach, a beautiful sea with animals, good food, if you are unpretentious in housing because most of the time spent at sea - it is quite an interesting option price / quality.
Pros: good food, friendly staff, beautiful beach and sea, large green area, beach bar where you can sit in the evening.
Cons: most rooms want renovation (but tolerable), there is nothing to do outside the hotel (a few dirty shops with brazen sellers)
