Well, we just stayed at this hotel- it's rated 4 stars and yes, the service and the hotel lobby area is 4 stars. However, the superior rooms and the standard rooms really have to be renovated! Our toilet flush literally broke the 3rd day and a person had to come and reattach the flush to the toilet with a piece of wire! The shower pressure was really weak and would sometimes stop altogether. The beach was big and ok- however, cigarette butts were all over the place because the ashtrays that were lying all over the beach on the small tables were, I'm guessing, thrown right back onto the beach? No one was there to clean it! Overall, it was a 3 star experience. I'd only recommend going here if you wanted some sun and beach, you get a deal for an extremely cheap price. For instance, if you're flying from western Europe into Hurghada, you should be able to get a deal half-pension (2 meals a day- breakfast and dinner), room with double bed and shower and flight for 399 euros or less. Anything more , and you're going to feel kind of ripped off. Oh, the gym, was pathetic- it was the size of one's laundry room and you had to pay for every half hour something like $1,.80 U.S/ 30 minutes.
The service is really remarkable but really go there if you speak german- it is catered to german tourists- in fact 98% of all guests there are german. They have a really nice well-kept garden and an impressive animation team from Milan, Italy that really enjoy what they do-- gymnastics on the beach to musical bingo at night- energetic young crowd.

We chose Marriott for several reasons: we love Marriott chain and it was surprisingly reasonable compared to the part of the world we live in. The staff and service in general, was a bit snobby and pretentious - something we noticed is quite common in Egypt (do not mean to offend anyone, but admit it - we have seen better) - especially some of the trainees they have on the floor. But other than that - our stay was very pleasand and relaxing. The breakfast was the best I have personally had in any Marriott hotel or any hotel so far. Hot breakfast buffet, great selection, nice ambience. The bed was superb - as usual, though, Marriott has great bedding. The place is very family friendly - there were many people with young children (including ourselves). There is a kid's club, babysitting, games both for kids and adults (shuffle board, darts, pool, etc) The resort has a nice (though kind of small) beach and a private island. All the rooms (except for those on the first floor, I suppose) overlook the sea. There are also some exercise activities: yoga, stretching, aerobics, water gym by the pool. The crowd is also pretty diverse, which is nice - mostly European (German, French, Swedish, etc), some Russians, a few Americans. Since we were travelling with a young baby, we could not take part in the nightly entertainment activities, but other guests semmed to enjoy those. There is also a free bus shuttle to and from the airport.
