“good value for money”

I went to this area for the diving. the hotel was just for sleeping. there were lots of activities and services available that I didn't avail myself of. However because this trip was last minute, the staff at the hotel were great at ensuring that I was booking onto a dive boat even though I had missed the deadline for their in house dive centre. The resort seemed to have lots of activities happening - place full of East Europeans and the English enjoying the sun. Only minor problem - if you wanted to lounge by the pool - all of them are 'reserved' by about 7 in the morning with towels or newspapers. They then are empty till the revellers come down to the pool around 10am. Had a great room with sea views and far enough away from the action to sleep well.

“Need”

I would echo the comments made by other travelers that this hotel's grounds and beach are beautiful and the experience is very relaxing. I had only two problems. First, I booked a superior room which stated it came with internet access. When I arrived at the hotel I was told that only the more expensive Marina rooms have internet access. The hotel lobby building has free wireless internet, but it worked only 2 of the 6 days I was there. The hotel staff seems to be without a clue about their internet service, which is unacceptable for a five star resort. Second, my last night there were bad thunderstorms and by 8:30 more than 100 rooms were flooded with water. Not a few drips but a few centimeters (half an inch) of water all over the floor. I realize that it only rains heavy a couple of times a year, but if you are there when it rains, hope you have a room on higher ground. There is no drainage in any of the buildings and most of the rooms are lower than the walkways that channel water. Also the ceiling in the hotel lobby building collapsed in two places. Again this is a five star resort so why can it not handle a rain storm?

“Good not bad”

The renovated rooms were excellent, clean and big as well as the bathroom although the shower glass door had some water leaking during taking a shower to the bathroom floor, the bathe tub had the same problem only the water would sometimes leak to the room through the glass window between the room and the bath room just a little drops but u can still notes. The old rooms were not bad same size, the landscape of the hotel was really big but not taking care of and not well organized. the hotel is around 25 minutes from Nemah Bay but the under marina is worth it all it was unbelievable.. the beach is long and big not sandy and not white kind of brown and stony. Hotel has to offer many sea activities some are within the hotel like snorkeling and diving and some are out of the hotel like swimming with dolphins and sea trips. the staff are very friendly and the service is good and quick. the breakfast is decent many varieties though there are 4 or 5 different restaurant I tried the sea food restaurant and it was very good and fresh. Hotel snack was not tasty and not well repaired. I would stay again in this hotel.

“Wonderful Hotel”

The good points: The hotel and grounds are wonderful! Snorkeling off their private pier is breathtaking! The pools and private beach are immaculate. The food was great and quite a selection. There was a different theme every night. Our waiter was great! Our last night he was supposed to be off and when we told him it was our last night he traded with someone else so he could say goodbye to us. He set up a birthday celebration for my son-in-law that was absolutely wonderful. Let me also tell you we upgraded to all inclusive upon check-in. Well worth the money for the food portion of it but if you are a drinker BEWARE! They only offer local liquors for inclusive guests which tastes like cleaning fluids. It was so bad that we only drank beer and soda.

“Radisson Sharm El Sheikh”

Mostly this was a great experience. What I would try to fix would be: * arrival of food via room service on a more timely manner. * temperature of food via room service (hot meals arrived cold several times). * staff awareness of posted "Do Not Disturb" signs. This should include phone calls to the room as well while this is posted. Other than the above, which is of no real importance - just convenience, it was an excellent stay, and have already recommended this hotel to many friends, family and co-workers. I loved how everything needed was right there.

“Great hotel but WAAAY too far from the action!”

Great hotel, nice landscaping, excellent service. The BIG problem with this hotel is that it's a good 45 minutes away from Naema Bay, where all the activities and night life is. If you're over 60 and just want peace and quite, it's a perfect location. Otherwise, find something closer to the center of Sharm.

“Great location”

It was my first time to Sharm El Sheikh so I picked a "higher end, lower priced hotel". It was not the cheapest, but certainly not the highest. I was pleasantly surprised. I did not have an all inclusive, because I was out diving (the reason for going) so I just ate breakfast. I did order room service a few times and found it to be inexpensive and very good. It is a family type hotel, and very quiet. All activities end at 11 pm. Hotel staff were very attentive and helpful. Hotel is located across the street from stores and restaurants. Had to be careful with eager shop owners. Pizza place across the street not bad. Also had internet cafe which was cheaper than hotel. Booked diving with dive shop at hotel. All prices seem to be about the same. Equipment was good. I would go back.

“Good hotel, inefficient service”

The hotel is in a good place, excellent gardens and sea view. Sadly, check in and out slow, request for room services slow.

“Not too bad all things considered”

The hotel itself was acceptable but falls somewhat short compared to other destinations I have been to. Small details, which would have been no problem in other hotels seemed elevated here. For example we hired the pool table in reception for an hour and after 5 minutes the manager turned the lights off to create ambience. Fair enough, however there was to be no refund on the pool? There were a few instances like this and although not massive problems after a while, began to grate. The staff were in most cases friendly, but one of the pool bar staff was not suited to work with the general public. I heard him say "this is cold enough" when a lady asked for some ice in a cup for her can of drink, she replied "I would still like some ice" so he put 1 ice cube in a plastic cup and practically threw it at her before stomping off. If a male was in the process of ordering a large round of drinks the same chap would also remove drinks from the order and place them in front of single girls also at the bar, this happened on a few occasions and I know for a fact that a couple of people made complaints about his behaviour. These incidents however were isolated and generally we had a good time. I cannot praise the reception staff enough for their help and attitude. The diving team were also very good, and all dives booked ran like clockwork which is not alweays the case at other hotels.
