Old sphinx hotel in dahab was not a specially fun experience , but the price was cheap so i supposed you get what you pay for. We had to change room 3 times in 2 nights . First night we got a room on the ground floor, the lox didn´t work either on the windows or the door, so we... more

This was my third time in Dahab and I knew what I wanted - you see there are a couple of rooms at this hotel with fabulous sea views! These rooms also benefit from catching the sunrise too! So I can overlook that the fittings are not 5*, because most 5* hotels I have stayed in (too many to count)... more

Arriving quite late in Dahab after a long flight to Sharm, we didn't know what to expect. The staff showed us to our rooms, basic but adequet. Airconditioning was spot on and then they led us outside and to our surprsie the staff at the funny mummy welcomed us with open arms at midnight offering us the entire menu say... more

The staff are super-duper friendly and their goal is to please you as much as possible. The place is low end, and if you are looking for 5-star (or 3-star) quality, this isn't it. Some people have dirty buggy rooms. I changed from my first room because it smelled really badly (they didn't bat an eye when I asked) and... more

Good hotel, located in the core of Mashraba in front of the Funny Mummy Restaurant. The staff was nice and helpfull, the room was clean and the air conditionned more silent than the rest of the hotels I've been so far in Egypt. A good low-budget option of Dahab. Eva (Spain) more

This hotel is one of the worst I have ever stayed in. The bathrooms were dangerous, the skirting boards were hanging off the walls and it was dirty. They do not clean your room unless you ask, which they didn't tell us until we asked why it hadn't been cleaned for 2 days. To be honest I am shocked that... more

We booked the hotel through our travel agent as a package deal to do Ras Mohamed national park, snorkelling and colored canyon tour. There was a slight delay to pick up from Sharm airport as a small mess up in communication. Jimmy, the owner, was so nice, he apologised and upgraded our half-day canyon tour to full-day to cover the... more

After backpacking round egypt we found Dahab and the Old Sphinx was a real good suprise. We didn't know anything of Dahab and with the price we paid for the room at the Sphinx we were not expecting much. But the rooms we're comfortable, the staff, led by Jimmy & Dr Bob we're amazingly helpful and friendly and the views... more

After spending a shocking few days in the nightmare resort of Sharm el Sheikh (if you like being under hotel arrest, half built towns and inedible food then high tail it there as fast as you can!) we struck gold finding this place. Jimmy and the rest of the staff couldn't have been nicer or more helpful and were happy... more
