Hoteliers dont build a good reputation when things run without incident, but when things come crashing down. Many a review here will detail a problem/disaster and then exclaim "BUT THE HOTEL SORTED US OUT, THEY WERE AMAZING" and that sort of trusting relief is more reassuring to us wary travellers than umpteen bland 5star reviews, written, by funny coincidence, in...

The Staff and crew are great the food needs a little bit of tweking but overall we had two weeks of sunshine and a great crowed to enjoy it with and will go back but i hope they fix the pool side as that needs some attention but overall 3 star

I would not recommend the Viva Sharm Hotel to my worst enemy. We arrived at this hotel at about 7pm local time and went straight to the buffet dinner. It was out on the terrace which sounds nice but you couldn't see the food you were putting on your plate and it wasn't labelled at all, luckily my partner and... More

Negatives!! Very poor hotel we visited on a half-board basis but had to eat out everyday! We ate once there and never returned to eat. The dining area appeared very dirty, I was shocked to see one of the staff members wearing an extremely dirty chef's jacket whilst making omelets, I observed food uncovered with flies sitting on it, hair...

They used rubbish to "decorate" the bar. Cleaned the floor with filthy rags. h/b food option was a joke. completely not as advertised. the doctors in the hotel were scamming everyone and the poolside area was frankly DANGEROUS. DO NOT STAY HERE!

Food was awful, nothing edible left uncovered with flies on it al day! No where near the beach NOTE it does NOT have a private beach as the adverts often suggest! No beach at hotel,... More

I went there late March 2012 with my wife and toddler and was disappointed to see the level of service. I'm being very generous giving 3 stars because I may have been very demanding and spoiled by stays in very luxurious hotels during my business trips. However, I'd leave readers to make their own opinion after reading what I experienced... More

We were at this hotel the same time as Juliette, but it seems we differ on our opinion. First of all we did not have a kettle in the room and ended up buying one, the hair drier that we borrowed from reception didn't work and they wanted it back straight away, and on occasions we did not get the...
