Hotel Continental Garden Reef 5 - reviews

The land on which is built the hotel complex, judging by the reviews, so much so that many tourists do not even have time for the whole stay to get around.

Special thanks to most of the rest say the staff, who with incredible speed fulfilled their requests and solve problems.

Rooms are clean, bed linen clean. The only obstacle in communicating with the staff for some – ignorance of the English language. However, this problem, the administration decided to hire two Russian-speaking employees.

The Abundance of places to eat on site, too many like it. And although the system “all inclusive” could only eat in the main restaurant, the menu, presented in buffet style, there was a lot of meat, chicken and fish. In the evenings the terrace restaurant is sure something fried on the grill. Many travelers like the opportunity to do and salads from the suggested ingredients.

The menu includes an assortment of pastries. Judging by the reviews, in insufficient quantities were served fruits and vegetables, for the Egyptian hotel amazing. In addition, some were surprised that the food system “all inclusive” for “espresso” had to pay extra three dollars.
