Great Weather Poor Hotel

This Hotel is listed as 5 star but is really only 2 or 3 star. The food is of poor quality and the organisation is terrible. The staff tried hard to provide a good service but what it really wanted was better quality food, more food counters and self service drink dispensers rather than being frustrated by having to wait for a waiter to ask what you wanted to drink. The speciality restaurants are in name only. The Aljezera restaurant was supposed to serve Indian food which should be full of spice and exotic tastes but in truth was bland and just like any other poorly cooked food from anywhere on the planet except India! We complained about the poor quality of the food and were promised a complimentary meal in the Aljezera restaurant which luckily for us, we did not receive. The air-conditioning did not work, the sink did not retain water and the refridgerator froze anything that was put in it even when set to its highest temperature. On the last day we were told we could not eat in the main restaurant even though we had paid for a meal because that was the system! Well we did eat in the main restaurant even though the staff tried to stop us! We have been to Egypt three times and this was the worst so far!

It's not that bad!

I was dreading our holiday to Hauza Beach after I had read the various reviews, but I must say that I was very pleased with the hotel. The location was fantastic. Our room overlooked the sea even though we had not requested upgrade. The beach and pool areas were spotless. Our rooms were cleaned thoroughly everyday and I did not spot one creeply crawly or mosquito the whole time. The staff were great and yes they did try to get you to have a massage etc but they were only trying to do their jobs and took no for answer straight away. Overall, they were friendly, polite and extremely hard workers. My only complaint would be about the entertainment it was dire! The food was fine for one week's all inclusive we only ate out twice once on an excusion and once when we went into Nama bay. I can't see why everyone complains about the food, if you want english breakfast and fish and chips then stay in England! Overall, I thought it was great value for money and will never allow hotel reviews to cloud my opinion in future.

Worst Holiday Ever

My wife and I stayed at the Hauza from 18th Nov - 2nd Dec 2007. During the first four days we managed to have a bath once, owing to a number of factors, including a disgusting dis-colouration of water from the hot supply, no hot water supply and then no hot or cold supply. After making in excess of twenty complaints to reception and finally demanding to be moved to another room or hotel the duty manager moved us to a different room on the fourth day of our stay. (I was informed by reception staff this problem affected many rooms, as we was to later discover from other guests). The food in the main resturaunt was very repetitive and usually cold with a very limited variety of meats,some of which were not entirely cooked. My wife and I both suffered upset stomachs on several occasions as did many other guests. The so called Indian resturaunt was no better.We booked a rerservation and had to wait four days. Much to our dissapointment the nan breads were cold as was the rice. The menu was very limited indeed and judging by the meals we ordered it certainly does not compare with the traditional indian menus. We never experienced the sea-food resturaunt as we were told by other guests the menu was extremely limited and quality of food very poor. During our second week we decided as did many other british guests to dine out in Naama Bay. This was of course an additional expense as we were all inclusive. A couple we met at the resort had a meal delivered to their room at an additional cost but the quality,we are told was far better.(Why can't the quality be equalled in the resturaunts or is the food is provided as cheaply as possible?) On the 30th Nov one of our towels was removed from the sun lounger at the poolside. We were told that we would have to pay 50 Egyptian pounds as it was the rules and that this was printed on the towel cards. It clearly was not and when I asked reception staff to identify where this rule was evident in print they were unable to do so.I was then told that this rule should have been explained upon our arrival at check-in. This clearly did not happen and I refused to pay. I was then threatened with the police and that our departure would be delayed until payment was made. After considerable discussion the the threats were removed but yet again it was another upset during our stay. We found most of the reception staff very unsympathetic and at times very rude during our stay. I would point out that the Food and Beverage manager was both helpful and sympathetic within his limitations. This was certainly our worst holiday experience in many years and would never recommend the Hauza Resort to anyone.

Diabolical Food!

In over 30 years of foreign travel I have never experienced such a disappointing holiday. The accommodation was acceptable apart from discoloured water from the taps which my partner described as 'like having a shave in tomato soup'! Any minor problems were quickly resolved by willing and friendly staff although this was not the experience of some fellow British guests. Unfortunately the holiday was ruined by the quality of food in the two restaurants we tried. It was at worst cold and inedible and at best not suited to the British palate. For the first few days we lived on cornflakes for breakfast and bread and occasionally soup for the rest of the day. Upset stomachs were common including myself which may have been caused by a lack of basic food hygiene. By the restaurant staffs own admission the amount of food wastage was enormous which should have told someone something. One evening we ordered a snack from room service at extra cost which was far and away of better quality and presentation than in the restaurants. That surely tells its own story. In desperation for the rest of our stay we ate in Na'ama Bay at considerable extra cost.The last straw for us was on the last morning - even cornflakes were out because the milk was off! On an all inclusive basis the food is fundamental to the holiday and for that reason alone this hotel rates no more than 3 or even 2 stars. The saving grace for us was meeting some nice people but we have never before been so desperate to get home for some decent food. Even Burger King at the airport was like haute cuisine! If you want to lose weight this hotel may be for you - otherwise avoid it like the plague!

Great location, but rooms and food were terrible

We stayed at this hotel three years ago and haven't been able to find it in any brochures until now. We are surprised to find it rated a 5*. It was the worst hotel we have ever stayed in. There are ants in bedroom, food the worst we have ever experienced, violently ill for 1 week. Maggots in salt and pepper in dining room. We asked to move hotels. This one is not recommended!!

Great Service & Staff

I had a thoroughly wonderful time at the Hauza Resort. The staff all worked very hard and always had a cheerful smile on their faces. They couldn't do enough for you. The hotel had everything that I needed, was clean and welcoming. The beach and the sea were just stunning. The food was great in both the main and the a la carte restaurants. The towel man on the beach was very kind and nice. The massage was out of this world, all you ladies out there - have one you will sooo not regret it. The layout of the hotel with its many waterfalls, flamingo lake, the large pool and the tiered pools were beautiful. It is not a hotel for the disabled though as there are many steps down to the beach. Only fault that I can find is that the disco should be all inclusive then perhaps people will go to it. I personally like dancing and perhaps it would be nice to have some at the pool bar. It was nice and relaxing to have a chat at the bar though. The night sky and the stars are incredible. I would like to say hi to Armando, Bassem, Samir and all the other guys I made friends with. I will definitely be returning to this hotel next year and will not hesitate recommending it to my friends.
