TIPS..TIPS..TIPS..TIPS.Are you ready to be constantly harrassed?? Yes! They are polite..Yes!! The hotel is beautiful & clean!! BUT!! If you are looking for a holiday where you can intermingle with other holiday makers over a nice Guinness/Fosters/Carlsberg with a little backround music & some nice conversation..STAY AT HOME!! There are BUT 3..YES..3 beers sold in this hotel, or for that matter, ANY HOTEL IN SHARM!! Downtown is the same!! When you are served, the barperson writes the transaction on a card-like, 4" x 6" receipt, where it is given to the cashier, who returns the change to the barperson and then back to you..3 minutes has elapsed..NOT A CASH REGISTER, but 2-3 robots..TIPS..TIPS..TIPS..The bar(s) are emaculate, only because they are rarely used.. The SUN is great, but, even it gets a bit boring!! The breakfast is like a cattle market..Rush, Rush, Rush!! Food is tasteless, although plentiful...Rarely is there a female employee. The employees who help with the luggage, bar staff, reception, etc..TIPS..TIPS..TIPS..TIPS.. Outside the hotel you are robbed by the taxi drivers & you are constantly harrassed by the shopkeepers..Travel to Na'ama Bay to see the night life??TIPS..TIPS..TIPS..TIPS..Into the Hard Rock Cafe for a little bit of DOWN HOME COOKING?? The waiter MUST pour your beer/water/juice..TIPS..TIPS..TIPS..TIPS..The entire area is a huge tourist trap..Bought a case of Beck's in the can only to discover when I returned to the hotel that it was ALCHOHOL FREE..The salesperson neglected to tell us. Probably because we didn't TIP..TIP..TIP.. At the airport, used the toilet & after washing my hands wanted to use the hand dryer..NO..There was an employee with a wad of rolled up toilet tissue instead..TIPS..TIPS..TIPS..TIPS.. So, my STRONG SUGGESTION to anyone contemplating a trip to Sharm El Sheik & are looking forward to a EUROPEAN STYLE BAR/PUB WITH A GOOD LAUGH, MEETING NEW PEOPLE WITH A BIT OF CONVERSATION...FIND SOMEWHERE ELSE..YOU WILL BE BORED OUT OF YOUR NUT!! Write us at paddyriley1948@talktalk.net for further helpful info..Only wish I was a little more educated prior to booking as I would have gone to Blackpool, Yarmouth, Cromer, Brighton..TIPS..TIPS..TIPS..TIPS.. Lastly, IF YOU DO GO, drink plenty of bottled water or you might be using the toilet more than you desired..TIPS..TIPS..TIPS..TIPS..

I have just returned from a one week stay at this hotel,and i do not agree at all that it is anywhere close to the rated 5*. The hotel and its facilities were exceptionally good,4 great pools,great snack bars for during the day,and the bedrooms were realy nice.However,the food in the main restaraunt was apalling,with on average a selection of only 5 hot choices to choose from on an evening,and the standard of the food was very poor,i have stayed in 3* hotels with a better variety of food!We were only stying as bed and breakfast guests but thought that we would try the food on an evening,needless to say that was the last time we tryed there!Oh and be sure to have plenty of money with you,because that meal alone was 40 POUNDS each!and that was before a bottle of local wine which cost approwx 18 pounds!However there are 2 really nice restaurants on the hotel site, the italians and the mexicans which are far better food for both quality and price. Hotel staff are really kind and polite and will go owt of their way to assist you. The hotel gym and spa are fab!

Lovely Hotel

This is truly a lovely place to spend a holiday. The hotel is very well laid out to maximise the potential for sea and pool views. Because of the landscaping is on multiple levels there are a lot of steps (so not ideal for those with walking difficulties) it adds to the charm and beauty of the location. Service was excellent and the staff were extremely friendy. I hope to go back there next year.

Wonderfull Experience

On arrival at the hotel we were all extremly impressed by the curtious nature of all the staff, the entrance to the hotel is very impresive, yet welcoming. when we were shown to our family room we were absoutely delighted by the quality of the furnishings and the vista from our room. we were late on arrival yet the room sevice was very quick in sending hot meals and drinks to the room, which was followed by a quiet restfull nights sleep ready for the next day. Each day was just as pleasent, the food, service, beach, sea coast,and snorkling were perfect. We did a 3 day stay in Cairo at the pyramicd parks hotel 5* which was good, but not as the golden view. From the minute we arrived at the Renaissance golden view we all felt at home,and none of us wanted to leave. so much so we will be booking this holiday again next year.

The hotel is very nice the staff are fantastic. I recommend the lobby bar both the staff and the service there were great (I should know, I spent a lot of time there). I can also recommend the Italian restaurant, the food was excellent. Anyone who books a holiday here will not be disappointed.

Tropical Paradise and Heaven itself

What a magnificent place! The hotel was even better than the brochure and the food was out of this world! Such a lovely relaxing place to be and quiet around this time of the year. We had a lovely place with a pool and seaview so this was pure heaven every day. Temperatures were lovely, it was never humid and the sea was warm. Am going back soon! Would definitely recommend this place! For honeymooners it would be so romantic. I went with a friend and it was just great! The staff were so friendly, respectful and happy all the time. This says a lot about this place!!

Excellent hotel

Second visit to Sharm, and first visit to this hotel. Stayed here in Sept 05. Great location. On the beach, Good food generally but has an excellent Mexican restaurant on site. 10 mins from Namma Bay in a taxi (5 mins in a lcal blue & white taxi). Very clean, clean and comfortable rooms, well apppointed. Staff very friendly,helpful and attentive. 3 Good swimming pools. Jetty from the beach to the coral reef for snorkelling, however please check the currents daily as on one day 2 people got into difficulty being swept away by the current. Dive school on site is very good, enjoyed 6 good dives with them. Hotel has many steps as it is built on levels, so may not be particularly good for people who have difficulty walking/climbing. All in all, super hotel. So good in fact we have booked to go back in Dec 2005, and would expect to return there again in the future.
