Helnan Hotel - Port Fouad

Enjoyed my stay at the hotel, staff was very cooperative? room was clean and food was delicious 😍

The moment I reached the hotel by car , a staff member asked me to carry the bags from the car to a mentioned spot inside the reception. I arrived at 2 pm to avoid the check in hassle , but to my surprise dozens of families were sitting around waiting to check in . Staff are totally untrained , unprepared and unprofessional . They seemed surprised by the number of rooms checking in which is totally unbelievable. They checked in someone else into my room “the room was registered with my name on their system already “ but the handled the keys to someone else . And I finally reached the room by 4:15 pm . The linens looked awful and not laundered , hair clumps on the carpet, screws on the carpet and flies roaming around the room . Apparently the view from the room was great . A double room with a 4 year old child on check-in had only 1 of everything (1 towel…etc) . Upon trying to call the reception to request the missing, they never picked up . I had to go back to the reception and as expected the reception staff were careless as always . I requested the GM , Mr Gamal abo Elazm who apparently was the only professional staff member on premises and apologized a lot for all the past events . Upon going back to the room I found all the missing were added with a fruit bowel as a compliment from Mr Gamal who I would like to thank a lot . Rooms are not spacious but newly refurbished, they miss the cleanliness by the staff . Tv wasn’t working. Pools are massive , clean but nowhere to stand as always staff are not helpful , They only handle you the towel cards upon your request , towels are mostly unavailable and they keep saying we are checking the laundry. imagine that I witnessed a young boy soaked in water after getting out of the pool asking for a towel , and the staff replied go to the reception first and get a towel card . Breakfast lacks the minimum quality, the food is not eatable . You can feel the taste of processed butter and oil in every bite . The restaurant is a mess . Staff waits for you to go get a sip of water and throw your food away ! You wait too long before finding a seat .

Nice located hotel Very good landscape and veiw Good helpful team members Good pool for children and adults Average lunch and dinner Need to give more attention to maintenance the lift for meeting room gets out of service twice during the meeting time

The property in a bad shape nothing working properly . Ac out of order most the time . I won’t even stay there again for free

Not a positive experience There are several areas where employee professionalism and service could be improved at the hotel. The check-in process for hotel rooms took over 30 minutes, which could be streamlined for a smoother experience. Additionally, room service needs to be more attentive to the "do not disturb" signs on guests' doors to avoid unnecessary interruptions. It's also important for employees to maintain a professional demeanor and avoid openly discussing work conditions while guests are present. Lastly, during the check-in process, guests should be provided with clear information about breakfast timings, pool timings, and gym facilities.
