“Never again!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 February 2011
3
people found this review helpful

Why?
Because of low class russian turists.
The clients of the hotel Sunny Days El Palasio 90% might be Russians from the lower class. They are rude, arrogant, aggressive, greedy, always drunk and vulgar and steal! (Spoons, forks, knives ,food... what they fall. They are the new huns.
Other Reason - very bad management.

Best of the hotel are animation team.Whithout them, the hotel is nothing special.Every animators, led by Lena (artist and professional) are extremely hardworking and talented.

“Crazy Waves is the best”

We spent a very nice week in Hurghada in your hotel, which is the Sunny Days el Palacio. Everything was excellent in the hotel. We did many wonderful trips with the Crazy Waves guys. We made earlier several trips like this but these with the Crazy Waves team was the best what we had in our life. So we would recommend everybody to make trips with the Crazy Waves.

“Much better then other's impressions”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 August 2010

First, their 5 stars hotel doesn't mean Europeans 5 stars, then 3! That must be known in advance, to all guests who want to stay there. I mean, every travel agency must warn people before booking.
Accomodation is very good, the rooms are clean and comfort, only one problem is by choice of position, because they gave us a room with the view to the wall (ok, some meters to the wall)! But, there is also much peaceful! Beside small faults (no hairdryer), impression about accomodation is ok.
The food is various enough, with many vegetables and for me, there was not problem with food, although usualy I have big problems with digestion. After return home, I was sick several days but because of effort, of many activities during optional excursions, which are veeery interesting, and recommended in any case!! (Cairo, Luxor, Safari...) Very strenous, not enough sleeping except in bus, 7 hours in one direction to Cairo.
In total, stay in hotel and traveling to excursions - a trip to remember, believe me!!
