Beautiful location, great service, good food! Beach service is great, towels, drinks, awesome food, even cleaning for the sunglasses. Room Service is spotless every day. We booked a trip from the hotel (thanks pascal from guest relations for the tip!) to luxor which was verry nice and perfect. Thanks Rafik & Gamal for the service every morning and night and the whole team. The whole team is happy to help, ask about your day and seem to care a lot. Hopefully we come back soon!

The time that we spent at the Kempinski hotel was really quality time. Everything from A-Z was excellent and the COVID 19 precautionary measures were thoughtfully and intelligently implemented and executed by the hotel which was very reassuring to the guests. Rooms were spacious everything was working and functional which is in line with a five star hotel.

Positiv: Sehr schöne Anlage, Personal immer freundlich, Alles sehr sauber. zu bemängeln: Jede Kleinigkeit (z.bsp Wasser) kostet extra, Preise für Drinks, Bier, Kaffee etc. so hoch wie in der Schweiz. Strandtücher konnte man nicht einfach beziehen, das Personal wollte jedesmal mit den Tüchern zum Sonnenschirm mitkommen. Das fand ich schon ein wenig kompliziert
