Service was ok to start, but went downhill pretty quickly. Front desk staff were unhelpful, but we didn't relly think there was a problem until we found we couldn't get room service, couldn't get a drink at dinner, couldn't get the rooms tidied: honestly, the list could go on and on. Room was small and, sorry to say, filthy. We had ...
loved it there..had the time of my life..loads to do and loads of places nearby.just hop a bus outside the hotel to take you to downtown hughada...loads of nightlife.will go back there again..

the grand hotel and its grounds was superb. the standard in many respects was up to british 5 star in our opinion. everywhere was spotlessly clean. ...

would not go back to this hotel

We travelled to this hotel on 4/8/06 for two weeks. On first impressions the hotel was very nice, the staff were very friendly. It is a very big hotel, but i feel that everything was to suit the Germans,as it was overrun with them,food was terrible, but suited them. I have been on lots of holidays and have met some lovely German people, but i have ...
Four of us have just returned from Hurghada where we stayed at the Grand Hotel.
I was very disappointed with the presentation of the rooms. The beds were made up with rather gray looking sheets and a stained blanket, no top cover. The curtains were held up with only a few hooks. The bathroom was very outdated and the shower tray was disgusting. ...

The toilet cistern was cracked and leaking. The toilet pan was stained. The sink was covered in mildew and had ground in dirt around the taps. The shower base enamel was worn through and also had stains all over it. The drainage hole was rusty and full of hair. The white(?) shower curtain was dirty and discoloured yellow at the base. The shower ...

We had upgraded to a superior room, which I think is advisable. Weather was 1n the 30`s there was plenty going on in and around the hotel if you didnt want to venture far. We went on jeep safari which was bril. also the Luxor trip to valley of the kings, but Luxor was very hot about 45 but I would still recomend. Staff were always ready with a ...
