Me and my boyfriend stayed here November 2010. After reading the reviews I was incredibly nervous. The staff are friendly and incredibly helpful, the food was exactly as to be expected considering the price we paid to stay in the hotel and the suites were cleaned everyday with fresh towels and to a perfect standard. Very quiet hotel and whilst... More

Firstly, I read the reviews (both good and bad) before booking and on balance this hotel is a little gem. We spent two weeks here and had a great time. Think Travel Lodge with a private pool and excellent service. In this review I'll go through everything so hopefully this will give you an honest in-depth review and should help... More

really nice, laid back, simple but beautiful place to stay. Breakfast wasn't good at all and I spent most of my time adventuring at the resort next door but this was a nice place to come back to at the end of the night. Friendly staff, well maintained with a really nice feel to it.

I too had read the reviews on The Sol Y Mar Shams Suites and had mixed reservations. I was a single traveller woman over 50 just had a major operation and wanted to relax somewhere quiet. I chose this hotel because it was small and quiet. I didnt want a big massive complex hotel with a lot of kids running... More

To be honest i was a little worries going by previous reviews. Thankfully, i needn't have. The room was spotlessly clean and huge. Complementary water in the fridge would have been a nice touch given the heat. The pool area was clean and tidy and i saw the staff cleaning the area daily. The staff were as well, great. Always...

I made the mistake of looking at some reviews before i travelled to shams suites in August, i wasn't sure what to expect, but my partner and i travelled with the attitude of we will make the best of whatever is there. We were very pleasantly surprised when we arrived. Staff are very friendly, and there weren't many other people... More

CONTRARY TO OLDER REVIEWS... THIS IS A REVIEW FROM AUG 2010 "I had a brilliant stay at the Shams Suit Hotel in Nabq. The staff were friendly and always willing to help. The same gentleman was on reception in the mornings to greet the guests and a different gentleman in the evening but the same faces. They are vigilent and... More

Ok, My mate and I arrived here & we were dreading it cos we read these reviews after i'd already booked! On arrival the of 2 beers (Stella - none of the cheaper local Sakara beer was available) was 70 Egyptian pounds! SHOCK! It was way too hot too walk to the Jazz Mirabel to use their facilities and the... More

15 minutes walk to the beach, No shops, bars, whatsoever around. One small pool with cold water. Quite poor service: they sometimes just forget to clean up your room. The buffet only offers a very poor choice.
