“Very good option if you not expect a 5* hotel in the price of 3*”

I opted for this hotel in spite of several negative opinions google translated before my trip from Europe. What I didn't like right after arrival is that the reception doesn't really care about providing all the information needed and there where literally no info about the activities. On the other hand they allowed be to choose between several rooms and I had a breakfast+early check-in for a little as 15 or 20 bucks. There are 3 pools, including 1 with warm water. Maybe there are not so many activities (my stay was in in the end of February), but I remember their "spring" season really starts later. Starting from March my friends have a lot of activities with English/Russian animators. The food could be more diversified, although this comes more to breakfasts. The is plenty of meet, fruits, vegetables etc. for lunch and dinner. What I loved the most was absolutely amazing architecture (reminds me Luxor). There are a lot of alleys here and according to Runkeeper you can walk around 5 km to see all the territory. Very healthy! The main problem with the hotel were some flies. Not sure why (none of my previous hotels had this problem), but the manager told me the hotel was closed for a few years and these months they are planning changes and will also fix the problem with insects. Another thing than can be annoying are too many Russian and Italian- speaking people. However I must admit they where very calm, at least comparing to the ones we usually meet in Turkey, LOL. My fellow from London who also stayed in El Hayat Hotel and now also extended his stay a bit here explained this is because 98% of them are Ukrainians and Kazakhs who are very different from Russians. To summarize, my review somehow, you get what you pay for – absolutely nice hotel wiith affordable prices in the heart of Nabq. Comparing to the 5 star hotels in Sinai where I stayed earlier I was missing belly dance+darvish dance, but c'mon – if you are looking for a inexpensive cheap hotels in Sharm el Sheikh with all inclusive meal option, El Hayat Sharm Resort is probably the best option when it comes to "second line" hotels. Good for couples and young people since you have 2 parts (Arabic/Eastern and with the Western music) and there almost no crying babies! This is probably also the best option if your want to save some money and spend them for Farsha cafe&beach (absolutely amazing option!!!) or, say, excursions to Ras Mohammed, Saint Catherine Monastery, Tiran Island etc. and treat the hotel just a base for exploring Sinai&SSH surroundings. If you want to has really a lot of activities in the hotel and are not planning to go to the beach etc., pay some extra 300-400€ and choose one of the 5* hotels in the first line.

“Not good nor bad”
