“Not suitable for disabled.”

Sunrise Mamlouk Palace Resort

2 of 5 stars
Kingdom of Fife
Jul 2, 2008

Having booked with Panorama in August 2007 for two weeks at the Grand Siva, we were informed nine weeks prior to departure, that we would be now staying at the Mamlouk Palace, as Thomas Cook now dealt with all Panorama bookings. This was a 'take it or leave it' offer, of which we accepted with some reservations about this hotel not being suitable.
On arrival the rooms had not been allocated, and as we were two couples, wanted rooms together, and as two fot he party were disabled, wanted something no more than first foor. We got second floor, ( 4 flights of stairs).As the block was close to reception/dining room/bar, and not at the far end of the complex,we accepted.On arrival the roomswere very clean, plenty of towels etc, a 'fridge' ( more a cool box ),which was stocked with soft drinks, but only stocked once, thereafter had to be bought. WHY?As we were all inclusive , the drinks were paid for anyway!!No tea/coffe facilities, as we were told the a bar was open 24 hours for tea etc, but that meant having to get dressed, go up and down flights of stairs just for a cup of coffee!!
Room service then went downhill daily. Constant complaining about having no towels,toilet paper and toiletries in the room.Floors not swept.building working being carried out ,with an angle grinder in constant use directly outside our block, and even being used one morning at 0130 hours for nearly an hour.We were compensated by management for this, when we threatened to make an official complaint to Thomas Cook.We received a late room booking and the ladies got a full massage cheaper.
The hotel is not suitable for wheelchairs or walking difficulties disabled as there is no lifts, and all blocks are down flights of stairs from reception.
The food was passable by repetative, more suited to the Eastern Europeans staying there .The TEXMEX and ORIENTAL restuarants can be used (and were) on as many occasions as you wished, but book early.
For the older tourist, I found not a lot to do outside the hotel trip-wise, apart from Luxor, which we did over two days. Once again not altogether suitable for disabled, as involved a lot of walking over rough ground(Valley of the Kings and Temples).Temperatures were in the 50s , so very ,very hot with little shade.
The Thomas Cook rep, Julia was a truly helpfull person ,dedicated to her job, who did listen and act on our comments ?complaints, and got things sorted.
The sea is too cloudy for snorkling.
Would I use this hotel again? No.Would I go back to Hurghada? Probably not, as Sharm el Shiek was far better.

4/4 found this review helpful

we were a party of fifteen adults and teenagers and everyone of us had a brilliant time we were well looked after from the moment we arrived till we went home all the staff couldnt do enough for us . has for the food i am a very fussy eater and dont like in particular chinese or indian food but we all booked the oriental, asian,mexican,and last but not least the italian restaurants the waiters couldnt do enough for us and all went out of their way to accomodate all fifteen of us kept our glasses full and all of us including myself came away full and very satisfied .we were all invited to the managers VIP party were we had nibbles and drinks and were well looked after then the ladies were given a rose and the manager presented us with a papyrus picture which was very good of them .Yasser who was at the towel station made sure we all had sunbeds together round the pool despite attempts by russians and germans to split us.we found all the bar staff in the lobby bar,bottom pool bar and the beach bar more than courteous they went over and beyond courtesy, the man who cleaned the room samir did an amazing job clearing after my grandchild ,the food in the main dining room was allways varied and i never had a problem finding something i liked and enjoyed overall we all had a most enjoyable holiday i got the best tan ive ever had it was like being in paradise what more could you ask for and i would personnally recomend sunrise mamlouk to anybody going to hurghada

“Such a great Vacation! 18 days definitely not enough!”

1/1 found this review helpful

Had a rest from May, 14th till June, 1st. A family of 4 persons of 2 adults, two children age of 2 and 8 years. Very much it was pleasant, a reluctance was to leave.
In general that all described by "the previous 2 orators" is truly and objectively, from myself I will add, that it is rather useful to learn (or to recall) 15-20 common phrases in English for simplification of dialogue (but...if You read this, everything is OK). The Russian(my homeland) dictionary of the local staff is : "hello" "how are you doing?" Numerals and "vodka without beer-waste of the money".
And, women, keep off the "table with sweets" at main restaurant! It is impossible to refuse! You just ruin your efforts to loose weight! (Joke)

“Great Hotel”

3/3 found this review helpful

Well what a surprise we had when we got to the Hotel. We originally booked the Siva Grand Beach as we where returning after last year and had our Holiday changed by Thomas Cook to this Hotel well Thanks TC the Hotel was fantastic the only negative thing I have to say is about the service in the main restaurant the 1st week was Brilliant could not do enough for you but then the team changed and so did the service you expect for a 5* Hotel. There seemed to be to many managers who did not know what the are doing. They have a great variety of different food and loads of it, also Good quality for such a big place. If you are on the ultra All Inclusive you get use all the restaurants on the mamlouk site and the Sunrise Garden Resort next door as many times as you want for free. Try the Itialian it is Great and you get the 5* treatment you would expect a credit to the team working in there and we particurlarly liked that on the way out how the Manager asked for your comments on the food and service nice touch. The Thomas Cook rep is Brilliant really helpful so go to the welcome meeting she has all information on trips.
We went on the Star Gazing trip it was Brilliant you get to go on a Desert Safria and go to a Bedouin Village it was very interesting if you like things like this. We also took advantage of the Anytime limo it was £18 for 3 days but you could go out and be picked up as far as el gouna as many times as you wanted within the 3 days. The Drivers are a bit mad though so fastern your belts.
The Rooms are cleaned Daily and are spotless just to let you know as we got caught out the sockets are European not african so take these adaptors. The Hotel grounds and pool areas are well maintained but there is a bit of work being done still.
The Beach was just having its sand topped up with new softer sand lots of loungers on Beach but people do reserve the front ones from about 7am this also happerns in pool areas.
We really enjoyed our Holiday in the Mamlouk Palace this is our 2nd time in the Red Sea and will Definently return to this Hotel.
