The Grand Hotel Sharm El Sheikh

It was a long family vacation after a long time. We spent more than 9 days at the Hotel with family and met some frıends there. Due to online booking, we were given a new family room. It was not very big, but it was enough with two rooms for a holiday. Compared to many hotels and experienced, topical all-inclusive with open buffet foods which was reasonable due to what we paid. Many outlets are opened and closed at different time schedules. Our kids enjoyed the pool mostly while we were on the beach. The hotel was busy and many staff al around working hard and trying to give service even could not speak English, but OK. We had some daily trips like an island tour, a submarine tour, and a desert tour. If you give some tips, the staff will take care of you:) We believe in the value of money according to what we paid and thank you for your service. We will be here again at the end of the season.

3.5* Emily Joan Smith Rating Overall: I would go back if it wasn’t for the mosquitos, if they had more places to chill in the evening and if the food wasn’t so samey. Pros: Staff - All the staff were extremely kind and helpful. They really went out their way to make you feel special. Prompt Response - we had a quite a few problems with our standard room before they upgraded us to a deluxe room. However, every problem was responded to promptly even if it wasn’t a permanent fix. Pool Choice - Mum liked that there were lots of pools and each pool was different in height. The Sea - the hotel was by the sea and you could see glimpses of it whilst walking up and down the stairs of the complex. (However it wasn’t so easy to get in the water once you were at the beach). Weather - I went end of may - early April. Weather was beautiful. 28 - 32 degrees. In all honesty it was getting too hot for me at some points. (Dip in the pool lots/ drink water) Fusion Restaurant - the best place to eat in the hotel. Other a la carte restaurants you had to pay extra for drinks. Sunday Evening - The best night for entertainment, the hotel outsource entertainment and organises a meal on the beach. (This is extra and you have to pay for it). Transfer - Only like 20 mins away! Cons: WiFi - only free in the Lobby but really patchy and didn’t work very well. We bought WiFi so we could use it around the complex. However it was still dodgy and had to log on every 5 minutes. A la carte restaurants - most of the a la carte restaurants you had to pay extra for your drinks. Which I found very very odd as it’s an all inclusive restaurant. The Italian food wasn’t that great either. Food - Very samey. However every person I spoke to at the airport felt the same way about their hotel food. Evening Entertainment - although the entertainment staff are lovely, I felt there was limited/ good entertainment. This could be because we were the only English and didn’t really know what was going on, but also the entertainment there was extremely loud and if you wanted just to chill, there wasn’t many places to sit in the evening. Construction: SO much construction work happening all over the hotel. Lobby bar - not all bars had all inclusive drinks. The lobby bar was not included in all inclusive. Massages - Not good, didn’t rate them. In small hut like spaces, with no privacy. Beach - not a walk into the water beach. Was on a rock cliff and have to get a jetty into the water. Mosquitos - LOADS! We got bitten alive!!

Just having a relaxing and wonderful stay in The Grand Hotel. All the staff, from Gartner to Receptionist are very polite, friendly, helpful and welcoming. They do all they can to make your stay comfortable and nice. The food was very good and delicious, also in the A-La- Card restaurants. There is choice enough for everyone. All the hotel area is clean and a lot has been renovated. As I was here before, I see a lot off improvement. A big THANK YOU to all the staff and my friends, you are doing an excellent job. I can highly recommend this hotel and I will come back again for sure. Best regards, Erna

It was our first experience in Egypt. We came upon the advice of our friends who stayed there before. They gave us new, beautiful and comfortable rooms. There were few TV channels but we didn't spend much time in the room. Since we arrived at the hotel late, they served us sandwiches in the room. On the day of check-out, they allowed us to eat from the open buffet. The open buffet was good enough, we would have liked to see more cheese in the morning but that is not possible in Egypt. We liked the food in the evening, there was a chocolate waterfall every day and they served sushi every day. There are many pools in the hotel, but we spent more time in the quiet one. When it is windy, they don't allow you to enter the sea because the corals are dangerous. Watch out for taxi drivers. We paid too much when we came from the airport, always bargain. Don't pay more than 20 dollars from the airport. If not, there is an application, it is much cheaper, you can easily call from there, if you have an internet package. The internet in the hotel is only in the lobby.

In March 2025 we went toThe Grand Hotel Sharm El Sheikh with my friends. I was in Egypt for the first time in my life. I have many beautiful photos there. Food was very beautiful. The hotel’s meals were also very tasty. The staffs were very polite and friendly, management was very good, everything organization for visitors, I will definitely go again...

It was a holiday beyond our expectations. This was our second time in Egypt, we had stayed at another hotel, so we came here with no hope, but the service was better here. There was a nice welcome, we arrived at the hotel late at night, and there were refreshments in our room. Since we bought online, they gave us a new room and were very helpful. They didn't speak English, but they provided service. We liked the food here, but other hotel dishes were not eaten at the previous hotel. There is always meat on the buffet. Luckily, the weather was very nice and we had the opportunity to swim in the sea. During the day, we had pizza and in the evening we had dinner at the main restaurant, drinks were until 12 pm. They serve local drinks, but I think the best was beer. The hotel was crowded when we were there, but we went late for a comfortable meal during quiet times, the service was more comfortable then. We joined the Tour outside once, the submarine tour and fish were not bad.
