Concorde El Salam Sharm El Sheikh Front Hotel

Çok kalabalık. Plaj uzak. Yemekler vasat. Resepsiyonda elemanlar saygısız.

Hotel is massive. We had all inclusive stay. Price was very reasonable

Can’t fault the cleanliness-immaculately clean everywhere. Check in was a bit poor. Don’t expect a welcome drink or information on where the bars and restaurants are. Had to ask for a map of the resort and find our own way. Rooms are basic. Had a faulty safe, so didn’t get off to the best start. There is no iron in the room, but quickly got one from reception. Main restaurant is ok. Food was varied and usually hot, but was very hit and miss when the main chef had a day off. No kids corner. No ice cream (which we all love when we’re in holiday). And no service with a smile. 3€ for a glass of fruit juice at breakfast or just have the squash. We went to the Italian a couple of times which was good. You have to pay extra for the Al a Carte restaurants so it was virtually empty on both occasions, but the food was good there as it was cooked to order. Beach is tiny and you’re packed in like sardines in a tin. It opens at 7am, and by 8am all the sun beds are reserved. You have to be quick or pay the life guard to put your towels out every morning. This is normal procedure here, and the same for the pools. Soho square is 5 minutes walk away but if your mobility isn’t great, then ask at reception for them to take you and pick you up in their buggy. Had a trip to Cairo which was very well organised by our Sun international rep, Alladin. Definitely recommend flying rather than the bus. It was still a long day, but well worth it, especially to see the pyramids and sphinx. This hotel is definitely not a 5* hotel. If this was all I could afford, I would return, but with my eyes wide open. Would rather pay a little extra for a proper 5* hotel, like Sensatori or the Savoy.
