This was our 2nd visit to his lovely, small, intimate hotel and what a great time we had again. Mr Tasoyan should be very proud of his staff,a special mention Achmed(in the restaurant) Moubark (pool attendant) Mouhad ( pool bar sevice) and Mohammed ( room attendant) who wait on you hand and foot and don't expect a tip although they all got one. This hotel is where you meet people. Some hotels in Egypt you might see someone on Monday and happen to bump into them on a Thursday. The Marlin bar is very welcoming and the Restaurant has a … read more

From the General Manager (Ibrahim) to the Ground Staff we cannot praise them enough. We were greeted with a friendly smile and warm greeting by everyone. Special mention to Tamer (restaurant manager) Yousef Maewod Omar & Sharif who looked after us everyday and treated us with great kindness which made us feel very special. Also Mo (pool guy) who greeted us everyday with a big smile and was full of fun. The service we received from all members of staff was superb.

So i liked it very much.The hotel itself is not that that 5 star good,but people there are really friendly.If u want to spend good time u should really check it out.Animators did they best to get people moods up. So the room was clean,it has safe. The food was really tasty,but after 5 days some of it gets borring,like at breakfast.But i really think u can find to eat something every day and you should remember that this is Egypt,not Europe. So the staff is not really good at English or Russian.Sometimes its hard to understand what they want to say … read more

As mentioned in the general section, Sol Y Mar is run like a small family type hotel which makes it so pleasantly intimate. The staff are constantly watching and checking without actually bothering you, almost like a silent Big Brother, which all adds to a fantastic holiday . Their knowledge of many languages is superb. There was a small issue re: the hotel Wi-fi, which was and is being addressed as I write this review, this was with regards to local charges and duration of service. Main restaurant for all meals and a poolside bar for daytime snacks and drinks. … read more
