The staff at the pool bar were friendly and kept us hydrated and provided shade when necessary (Go raibh Maith agat from Seamus and family) The grounds were well maintained and the hotel,pool and rooms were cleaned to a high standard and restocked without the need to ask...

    ...At arrival we immediately noticed and felt the welcoming attitude... They really put a lot of thought and care in everything... They even put a lot of effort to move the buffet to the pool or outside to enjoy some live music... You don’t have to worry about a good nights sleep because the beds are comfortable... Altogether, we loved our stay in Sultan Bey and we would like to thank all staff for their kindness and service...

    ...The Hotel looks really lovely and the rooms do too... Swimming pool is small but fine and there are also 2 beaches on the resort where we loved to float (if not to many waves)... Staff is friendly and the location is perfect... In 5 minutes on the bigger beach and coral rif with the suttleboot and also in 5 minutes in the centre of the village (it's small but looks cosy with some nice restaurants)... It was nice to do some dine around with the vouchers, to see some other hotels for diner, we loved that option!...

    ...Spent a week here with my 11 year old son. Comfortable, clean room with an amazing lagoon view... Staff very friendly and can’t do enough for you... Swimming pool and surrounding area is kept very clean, as is the whole of the resort... El Gouna is really wonderful and felt very safe walking around with my son, jumping on a Tuk-tuk, visiting the Marina and Downtown...

    Sultan bey is a great hotel... Andrew at front desk was eager to help and always smiling... we expressed a desire to do a day trip to luxor and he organised the journey to and back and told us everything we needed to know... i also highly recommend the breakfast and dinner buffet... they cook your food in front of you and their fish is excellent... Mr Abdel in the restaurant came with smile and eager to bring anything you need... there is also a pool that is quite spacious and the hotel has access to the huge lake in the centre... our room also had a beautiful balcony that overlooked the lake... Wifi is good all across the hotel and the rooms... The room service was within minutes when ever needed...

    ...The hotel is situated on the lagoon with sun beds at the edge and steps down into the water,it also has a pool and a children’s pool which are ample for the size of the hotel.If you want a beach experience the complimentary shuttle boat which departs on the hour will take you to Keytouna beach and returns on the half hour this is also a lovely area with plenty of shade if required... The staff at the pool bar were friendly and kept us hydrated and provided shade when necessary (Go raibh Maith agat from Seamus and family) The grounds were well maintained and the hotel,pool and rooms were cleaned to a high standard and restocked without the need to ask... There are plenty of bars and restaurants a few minutes walk from the hotel which we also found really good too if you want to go out in the evening.The marina is also only a few minutes away on a tuc tuc and cost 35 Egyptian pounds for 3 people which we found quite fun and the marina is beautiful at night... If I had to be really picky it would be to have the lobby bar open in the summer not just in the winter for those who want to escape the heat of the day without having to return to their rooms...

    ...The rooms are beautiful, as the pictures they have all over the platforms. Very clean, very organized, the staff is amazingly friendly and professional... The location is fantastic cause it’s 5 mins walking from the downtown, 10 mins by Tuktuk to the marina... The staff have helped us boost our trip by giving us several choices to our desires in Gouna (nightlife, snorkeling, visits etc…)...

    We absolutely loved our stay in Hotel Sultan Bey. Great Aerea, a lot of opportunities to sunbath ( by pool, garden or small beach)... Or a free taxiboot takes you (every hour)to their own managed bigger beach where you have free entry and free drinks and lunch if you booked All Inclusive... Also lots of healthy things around... There is even a snack time between lunch and dinner where complete pizzas and beefburgers can be ordered... And you can see that when you notice how many returning guests are greeted during your stay... We will definitely return to this wonderful hotel...

    ...The hotel is right in the centre of the town, so you can easily go out without taking Tuk tuk. There's lots of restaurants and bars around... The hotel is quite a good size, not too large but not too small... Rooms are quite spacious with balcony... Plenty to choose from every day and it taste great... There was also BBQ every day and a cute lady was making fresh sort of buns in an clay oven/pizza oven outside... Staff - just amazing, attentive, helpful, smiley - we have not seen anyone grumpy... In terms of facilities, there is nice swimming pool, there is access to the laguna and beach which is not huge but you can take hotel boat to Zaytuna Island if you prefer larger beach... On top of that, El Gouna felt very safe - there's friendly security everywhere around which is reassuring...

They even put a lot of effort to move the buffet to the pool or outside to enjoy some live music... The rooms had enough space and each has it’s own outdoor balcony or patio to enjoy a book, or just the view... You don’t have to worry about a good nights sleep because the beds are comfortable... The shower however was the only thing that bothered us a little... The pool is quite small but perfect to cool off... You can also choose to swim in the lagoon since they have a small private beach...

A very pleasant experience at the hotel, the staff is super friendly, rooms are clean, lagoon view is amazing and accessibility to the beach is very convenient. Buffet items should improve (3.5 / 5). Excellent destination to relax and unwind.

Among a group of 12 senior doctors of the same college class, we came to this fabulous place clean rooms with comfortable beds, facing a wide lagoon panorama. The room is fairly capacious for s couple ((I think an extra bed would make it a crowd). The WC is just ok Check in was easy with Andrew, who offered free upgrade from garden view to lagoon view. Breakfast at the beach is rich with varieties. then you may enjoy swimming at the lagoon or the pool, or you may get the free shuttle boat to Zaitouna beach (5 min) for more varieties and activities Location is very close to downtown (7 min walk). You may take the Toktok to the marina

We have been to this hotel many times and have always had a great time there. It is ideally placed in El Gouna and is a nice sized hotel, not too big and not too small. The rooms are very well appointed and have lovely views over the lagoons. We always go "all inclusive" and there is always a good selection of food. Not only is the place ideally situated with easy access to Downtown with many bars, restaraunts and shops it also has regular free 10 minute boat trip to Zeytouna Beach with all its own beach chairs and other facilities. The greates asset that we have found with this hotel is the staff. They all go out of their way to make your stay as comfortable and as enjoyable as they possibly can. Nothing appears to be any trouble and they all go that extra mile to help and assist in anyway they can. Ramez, Hakka and Mohammid in the restaraunt; Joseph and Shaka in the bar; Yasser the room boy; Andrew at reception; Mohammid the bell boy (very tall) and Anter security. I have named individually those staff that we have got to know well but from the Management to the gardeners and the pool staff, everyone is extremely polite and helpful and make this hotel really stand out.
