" i went on a solo holiday and stayed... "
Submitted By: Mrs M Neilson
i went on a solo holiday and stayed at the Savior hotel hotel itself was very clean and tidy and most of the staff were very nice except the staff in the restaurant who could be a bit rude at times food was the same each night which consisted of beef or fish that became boring although at the pool at lunch time their was a choice of kebab,toasted sandwiches, and pizzas. I did find out that a telephone call from my daughter that was very urgent did not get passed to me until three days later even though i had visited the reception desk it was not passed onto me and only found out when a note was put under my door from the rep.also u could not use the phones to call home from Ur room as indicated in the broucher. I also found that any shops were quite a long walk away not good in that heat but u could get a taxi(talking of getting a taxi be careful) the one we hired to take us ti El Gouna started to fall asleep as he was driving and it wasn't much better on the way back!!!! But saying that if it is peace and quite u r looking for this is the Hotel for u

" My first trip to Hurgarda was 15... "
Submitted By: Mrs W Darby
My first trip to Hurgarda was 15 years ago, then, no more than an unspoilt fishing village with a couple of very basic hotels and frequented by the divers (myself included). As far as i remember Emperor Diving the only PADI school then. Now, all these years later I return to find a totally different city.. some good some not so good.......... the Safir being very good.
The hotel is quite basic but is offset by being in a quite area. It's totally accessable to the old town and the new town (Sekalla); pay no more than 10EP (£1) taxi either way and always agree on a price BEFORE you happily jump in the taxi.
We were lucky enough to be placed in a 1st floor room over the beach. The view's across the sea towards Giftun Island were totally jaw dropping especially the Sunrises/sets...
Staff at the hotel were very friendly and helpful, nothing was to much trouble. (Word of warning.. beware for the food police at the front door.. no food to brought into or out of the hotel!)
Food was varied, very well prepared and presented. Catering staff were seen to follow good food handling practice. (disposable gloves were used by all staff when handling food). We used alcohol hand gel frequently, especially after handing money.. this is know to carry E coli as well as a host of other stomach turning bugs.
Would we return to the Safir.. definitely!

" I've just returned from eygyt were we... "
Submitted By: Mrs A Richardson
I've just returned from eygyt were we stayed half board at the safir. The staff were amazing so helpfull, always there to help you, the food was lovely, and the rooms got cleaned every day, for being a 2 star hotel i was very impress with the service. We went on a boat trip and safri through our hotel and got great service again, it just shows you we don't need reps at hotels when the hotel staff spoke perfect english. We are going back next year. So if your after value for money, quiet hotel and 10 mins walk to the town centre then you will love the safir.

for the view,swimming pool was amazimg actually when i saw the pictures on net i decided to book but pictures are not the same like reality so here is the reality:
i am writing this cause it is your right to know Egypt is much better than that i had been all around but i never seen such a baaaad hotel and staff and Food
Well lets start with the first Day where we informed the hotel that we will check in after dinner time so make a set menue to be delivered in our rooms guess what was served AS A DINNER 2 cheese sandwiches with a cake with the worest bad quality ever however dinner dont include this sh... and it was supposed to be same items from the open dinner
Next day i had to wake up since 7am cause the cleaning people was just bangind all doors and loud voices and hell of noises i could not believe how rude they were
we went to the breakfast which is something perfect it is a hell of 3 things to choose from Eggs bad cheese and egyptian beans so where is the rest !!!!!!! however even this was so baaaaaaad in taste my stomach was really hurting!!!!!
Well go to the dinner which is one kind of pasta and rice and bief and rotten fish oh to be honest there were good mashed potato and the beef was mmm less than average but OK
well the beach was not bad too and drinks was fair they just need to clean the glass and dishes!!! ohh and never try to have cubed ice it smelled like sh....
The room standard i would rate for 2 star hotel plus no maintenance so you can imagin how bad is the holes in the walls specially the bathroom
Finally we go for the management i believe they manage this hotel with a bunch of crappp and rude this is the most suitable word as no privacy people are following you and staring where ever you go and i felt even they were listning to us from behind the door which made me feelt hurrassed soooooooo much
I talked to management and i was about to call police but then they kept saying sorry and i was staying for 3 days so i just left the hotel and went to another place
After all what i said if you want to try just take this advice Never leave expensive things in your room and ask for cleaning when you are not there
Oh forgot to mention that the recieptionest keept calling on my room in funny egyptian words then when i phoned back he said sorry i thought you need something
Well i am working in Egypt since a year now and i have been to amazing places but not this Safir was the worest place ever to be in within any country everrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!
