Please stay away from this holiday camp. The decor is dull & drab, the rooms are small, the staff are unfriendly, the food is, at best, average, the restaurant is akin to a school canteen. If you enter the pool try to avoid fresh mucus discharged from a Russian's nose or throat or combination of both, if you fancy a... more

I have been there in my honey moon at 2004, it was so good, so I decided to return back at April 2009. Check-in didn't take too much, room was ready, and receptionist was decent and helpful. The room had a good view as all rooms in this hotel, as it has a lot of landscapes. We were on an... more

Following a multi-centre trip of a lifetime to Egypt, which included a superb nile cruise on the Oberoi Philae, we were looking forward to 5 days of good food, good service and relaxation at the Sofitel Hurghada, which was 'ultra all-inclusive'. Following a 5 hour trip through the desert, we arrived at 3pm to be told off handedly that our... more

We have just returned from a week at The Sofitel Hotel in Hurghada, and quite honestly it wasn't long enough. From the location, the hotel, rooms, staff (who were so friendly & helpful), food, cleanliness, & weather, in fact eveything, was wonderful! We booked at last minute & hadn't even seen the brochure so hoped for the best as we... more

I have benefitted from reading the reviews here so I want to share our experience at the Sofitel Resort in Hurghada, Egypt, March 18 to 28. There were three of us, including our 12-year-old son, and this was our first visit to Egypt. Hurghada airport is modern and well run and we were soon on a minibus that transferred us... more

Spent 10 days at the Sofitel from 17th Feb 09 to 27th Feb 09, travelling alone on an all-inclusive basis. Holiday booked with Thomas Cook. First impressions were good, given card to fill in on the coach to speed up things at reception. Card duly handed over and sat down whilst they allocated a room. Nice cold drink provided, so... more

Like a Paradise on contrast with 4-days nightmare in 5-stars Cataract Pyramids in Cairo. more

Oh dear, I should have listened to the reviews of others who were not happy with this place. The best thing about it was our room, which was on the top floor of a small block of about 20 rooms. We had a bit of a sea view and it was quiet during the day. However, the booming noise of... more

We stayed in two bedroom bungalow and all included holiday. Typical Arabic style rooms, quite small, but confortable enough. The buffet was great, lots of good food for everybody - even for children/teenagers. Nice quiet, clean, private beach. Can't say any bad things about this hotel. Only the Russians were behaving badly - but that is not the hotels fault.... more
