We stayed for 10 nights in a different hotel and then came to this one for 2 further nights. The accommodation was extremely basic and certainly nowhere near 5 star. We had booked a deluxe double room and this didn't look anything like the photo's that the hotel provides. The room had no towels, no bathrobes, the walls were just plain white. The lighting was so poor in the room (no lamps or bedside lighting) that we had to use the torch on our phone just to see the buttons on the remote control. Really disappointed with the room so we went to reception to ask for a better room. They advised us to come back the following morning to see what might be available. Upon doing so they moved us to a different deluxe room and this time it did resemble the photo's. Still only a 3/4 star room though. The food was good in the hotel and the alcohol was adequate - It way too expensive to buy branded wine at anywhere between £25 a bottle (worse than the local wine) and £150 for a bottle of Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc. Although this seems to be a common thing in Egypt and not just this hotel. Nice pools (Although no swim up bars to be seen) and nice beach area. We didn't bother visiting the Aqua Park as it was tiny and with no pool there (or alcohol being served) it would have been a case of riding a few slides and then walking all the way back to the main hotel. We visited the spa for a massage also and it was the most painful aromatherapy massage ever! Would not return.

Royal Albatros Moderna has pretty much everything you need for a sea&sun holiday. It would be unfair to rate the food and the drinks per normal standards while visiting during the COVID tourism crisis, but even under these circumstances the food was well cooked and had enough variation. Some of the staff (customer care rep, big pool bar staff) did an amazing job. Sadly only the smaller (beach side) pool was heated, but that one was kept at a solid 29 degrees Celsius making happy most of the customers. The pontoon is very long but it was being refurbished bit by bit during our stay and the platform near the reef is very well equipped with sunbeds and even larger king bed-type sunbathing equipment. Most of the customers during this winter appeared to come from ex-Soviet countries which still had charter flights to Sharm but the animation team made efforts to entertain all customers regardless of the language spoken. The general atmosphere was family friendly, lots of kids and teens. The aquapark (even if located in a less then inspiring spot) is well equipped and provides plenty of fun for kids and adults alike. Minor quirks can be easily overlooked given the general positive impression.

Not a 5 stars at all !!! Start with check in ... it took 4 hours , they ask me to pay extra 1000 USD because my doughter is 13 and considered to be adult !!! At check in , the reception guy gave me a paper of check to fill it !!!! They they do nothing at all .. they ask me to leave my passport for few hours but I refused as I heard one was shouting because the lost his passport !!! Then no body explain to me the resort and the activities at all ... No body carried my bags , no body even show me the to my room which far a way from the reception ... they just told to look for some to show the way ... i asked two of the waiters but they said they were busy so I spend 30 minutes to find my way with myself ... The room was soooo old furniture , bathroom is not even a 2 stars hotel , broken shower , used shampoo , no slippers or roob , 2 lights in the room were not working ... the worse thing is the bed ...... very bad and not comfortable at all , u will have backache and shoulder pain after two days , trust me ... Housekeeping is the worse , imagine they clean the room after two days !!!! I left the room with the cleaning sign on from 7am until 2 pm ... no cleaning., the third day they clean the room but was not perfect at all .. Activities in hotel is boaring, not funny at all ,my kids did like it all . If u want to screw you vacation , this is will be your best choice

Excellent hotel
Hotel was excellent, very good choice of bars and restaurants with entertainment in various outlets every night. Lovely touch was the Columbus coffee house which we enjoyed very much. All the staff and management went out there way to make sure we had a fantastic holiday. Can't wait to return in the summer.

Food was really awful! Some cooks don't know that the hotel system is 'all inclusive' and you have to beg them to give you more. Only 1 pool was heated! 1! Others were as cold as ice...

Fantastic hotel - would recommend
We were travelling as a group of friends and supposed to be at this hotel for a week but stranded for longer due to the issues with flights to UK following plane coming down. Throughout our stay the food was great (AI included cocktails, fresh made pancakes etc as well as non stop food in range of restaurants), facilities excellent and staff so helpful under difficult circumstances. Nabq Bay was great for us - lovely beaches and not too busy. I hope Egypt is able to recover following this tragedy.

Lovely hotel but dining experience let it down
Hotel was lovely, very clean and everything in working order. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Sales staff for the spa were relentless - You could have up to 4 people come and try to persuade you to book something. Choice of restaurants was good, but they were all buffet with no a la carte options. What I found strange is that people wandered in and out of all the restaurants, carrying their plates to each one. There was no drinks service, you had to seat yourself and had the feel of a canteen - not the usual relaxing dining experience I prefer. Pools and sunbeds were good - plenty available and good selection of areas depending if you wanted peace and quiet or music etc WIFI was practically non existent.

Very Spacious Hotel
This was a return visit by myself and my wife as we had been there last year and liked it very much. It is a large hotel, but as it covers a lot of area you never feel packed together as you do in some other hotels. The rooms, pool areas, restaurants and entertainment venues are all spacious and the staff throughout the hotel are very friendly. All in all a pleasant experience.

Harika bir tatil
Mükemmel hizmet sunan tertemiz bir otel. 5-6 tane havuzu var 2-3 tanesi ısıtmalı bu gerçekten harika bir şey. Yetişkin ve çocuk aqua parkı bar 4-5 barı 4-5 restoranı var 24 saat açık kahvecisi var. Havuzlarda sürekli cankurtaran var ve bir dk bişe gözlerini ayırmıyorlar çocuklae için çok güvenli. Otel hizmet ve temizlik konusunda gerçekten çok çok başarılı.

Room condition was horrible. Even there weren't shampoo and a door to the bath booth. Plus it was too old. At night I saw a cockroach. Too many guests but not enough staffes & towels. Some of staffes are not kind enough. I read reviews about bad food, but it was not too bad. But if I go to Sharm El Sheikh again, I will go to a different hotel.

Отель для отдыха с детьми
Были в этом отеле с 26.03 по 09.04.17. Ранее - в ноябре 2016. Отель идеален для отдыха с детьми. Для парного отдыха не очень подходит, потому что детишечки везде и даже в relax-зонах.

Bra service men kalla pooler, tråkig mat
Vi var nöjda med hotellet. Bra service men mycket kalla pooler, ingen variation på maten som inte smakade nånting. Kul att vi blev inbjudna till en kväll på White Elephant! Lite långt från Naama Bay men helt okej om man tar en taxi på gatan. Hotellets taxi-servic har högt överpris.
