Stayed in this Steigenberger from 12-19th of August, together with my mother visiting me in Egypt. The hotel manages to create a boutique feel - although it's a fairly big complex, it never gives you this impression tough.
Hotel guests mainly include Germans (of course) and French, and an exceptional Belgian expat living in Egypt - that's me ;-)
The food is definitely 5-star, like you find in the other Steigenberger in Hurghada.
Location is at the wonderful creeks you find in El Gouna all over the place. Hourly boat trip is provided to the beach.
For younger people, looking for party or entertainment is not a good choice - rather go to Sharm or Hurghada then.
On small suggestion for improvement: the staff could be less formal and smile somewhat more.
Pls also note that the road from Cairo to El Gouna has some speedcameras :-)
