Hurghada, Egypt Hotel Rooms at the Independent

Amazing hotel for a relaxing adults only holiday. Fantastic staff and a great manager "Mohammad" will be back again!

1- The hotel doesn't provide soap in the guests room. You need to buy your own. 2- the hotel is 30 km away from Hurghada. The hotel dosen't provide free or cheep transportation to Hurghada or the airport. It costs 200 le for one way. You can't take ai taxi as there is no buildings around the hotel. 3- The houskeeping don't clean the cofee cups in the rooms. 4- We had a leaking pipe in the bathroom cased a flud in both of the bathroom and the room. The flud happend again after they fixed it as they didn't pay attantion to fix it in the correct way. 5- we complained about a bad smell in the bathroom. But they couldn't fix it.6- The staff in the reception were very frindely. 7- The food was more than enough in the resturant, while it wasn't enough in the pool erea. The quility of the food was medium.

Enjoyed my stay and would love to repeat it again

One of the best places i have ever stayed in during my domestic travel

Incredibly helpful and charming staff. Hotel immaculately clean. Facilities that we used were very good. The food was of a very good standard and the Asian restaurant is outstanding. We also enjoyed the Lebanese restaurant. The hotel was pretty empty, which added to us feeling very well looked after, but please don't look this hotel over. We had an extremely relaxed and enjoyable holiday and would go back again.

i was there from 20 to 5 of march.i warned steve beforehand of my arrival.he delivered the key on time.i was lucky to use sindbad hotel beach so it was not far from me.everything was ok i would reccomend it for families and couples but it is not comfortable to cook.the pots are too small.i didn't get any telephone number of the staff and when water is disconnected or something is not working-you are on your own to solve the problem.but these are small things.otherwise i had a lovely time in this hotel.thank you

Absolutely relaxing experience with everything taken care of - buffet breakfast and dinner is fantastic, great variety and delicious. Snorkeling off the hotel is world class. I would highly recommend for someone looking for a easy, relaxing holiday to focus on water sports and having all catered for. Do not expect cultural experience however, as the location is not made for this. Soma Bay is amazing for kiteboarding, but not suitable for beginners due to predominately offshore winds, i.e. you get dragged out to sea. While they have rescue boats to bring you back, the drift impacts ability for instructor to remain close and physically help you.

My husband and I visited Egypt for the first time, and my parents have recommended this hotel to us. We were NOT disappointed!!! Great big room, excellent polite service, very clean.

Very good value for money. The staff cannot do enough to make your stay comfortable, link this to a great location with great swimming and snorkelling from a brilliant beach. We are booked to return again in September and would recommend this location all - young and old ( we are 71 and 61) - families, couples and singles alike . This hotel represents all that is good with the Egyptian way of life and if its peace and tranquillity your looking for then look no further.
