We had a great stay (our second) at this hotel. I would rate it four stars. There are small variations from what you would expect at a Hilton in Western Europe or in the US, but than again, this is the Middle East and not Brighton... We had a very comfortable two bedroom/one living room suite in the "Villas" section (about five minutes walk from the reception/restaurant area). Just outside is a good sized heated pool (not all pools are heated) with a swim-up bar. We opted for the all inclusive option, which I think was good value for money. Don't expect to be served steaks and whole grilled fish. It's mostly arab inspired dishes, but almost always you can get nice chunks of grilled chicken. I particularly liked the arab style starters and salads. (And no, we did not get any bowel related problems on any of our two stays). One suggestion would be to have more western style dishes for kids as they are, at least in our case, less inclined to try stuff that differs too much from what they are used to. The beach at the five star Hilton across the road is great. Food and drinks there are not included but can be charged to the room. I would recommend guests not only at this hotel but in Egypt in general, to set aside about USD 10 per day for giving small tips to just about everyone, from bartenders to the guy with the towels at the pool. Its the local custom and things will run smoother and you will have a better experience. You can think what you want about this custom, but that's the way it is...
