The Hotel is an excellent place to relax in the hot Egyptian sun All of the staff were friendly and helpful. Especially at the outside bar and at the Mexican and Asian a la carte restaurants. On the first night that we visited the Italian a la carte, the service was great. However, on the second night we visited the restaurant was full and only two staff were serving and the service was poor. The hotel was very clean and cleaners were constantly cleaning around the pool and preparing it for the summer season. The majority of guests were Russian ..., French or German but there were some British. read more

The Sentido Palace Mamlouk is a great resort with a lot of potential. The common areas in the main building and the pool area are beautiful.
Recently rebranded from the Sunrise group, you could see however that a lot of cleaning up was needed to bring it back to its original splendor.
A lot of the wood and paint was bleached from the sun and they were working hard to get it ready for the summer. So I think, although it wasn’t perfect yet, it will be gorgeous by July.

A very good hotel. We are already for the 4. time in Egypt and were in the Mamlouk for the first time. We are definitely coming again gladly to this hotel. The staff was always friendly and in a good mood and had a very pleasant holiday. Especially our nice waiter in the main restaurant (akmal younes chain) was always friendly and zurvorkommennd. read more

The staff is really very friendly and tried hard, we have many of them (in only a week) them into our heart!
Some details in the area of hygiene one may perhaps not european maßstaben fairs, but if you're not fussy is, can a great vacation spend.
We have in any case felt very comfortable and can the complex recommend with a good conscience. read more

We are for the 3. time in Egypt and our request was only this time, the cold in Germany to escape and a beach vacation to enjoy.
We are as a family flew, 2 adults and one child(9 years) and that we had also!
Our room had already several weeks not been used and it had also smell, but we thought, time will be. Unfortunately were our expectations too high, because (faecal ) odor came from the mattress and remained stubbornly up to our check out are, what we already light würgereize reaction.
Near 3 persons we had only 2 ... beds and had several occasions instructions, they gave us a extra bed like! That is unacceptable, which we for 3 people booked.
According to hotel description should soft drinks in the fridge his, that was not the case and were only brought, when we also times in the shortcoming pointed out.
Also the 'please do not disturb sign was missing and the bags was also never part of the room.
The existing water bottles and the tv were so full of dust, we only right to the adoption came, the this room for a very long time not was already occupied.
Here and there small to strong flaws, but that is well-known.
The cleaning of the rooms was tidy, even if you with sprays attempted the disgusting odor to remove, the hung but persistent in the mattress.
The service through our tour operator GTI, was here unfortunately 'klein' written, closer i will not comment on, you would be better advised this hotel with the following tour operators to book:
Neckermann
Is
While we were there, there were very many locals to visit, what we have no vacation in Egypt and the behavior, especially in the restaurant area much to be desired left.
You had the plates up to the top of the filled up, a lot left and the tables and the environment looked afterwards as a ' fressarie' from.
Scary for us europeans fully vermummten women, where only the eyes saw and with this garb in the pool!
Russian tourist were also very plentiful represented, but they were very personable.
The animation was actually the 'best' on whole vacation! Even if all animateure 'russians' were, in 3 languages (english, russian and even german ) the vacationers enthusiastic.
Children's entertainment and care on the days (which we only 1 times had used) kids disco every evening at 20:00 o'clock in the theatre and afterwards was showtime. At 7 days the week another program and this was 3-speaking moderated! Great thumbs up for the entertainers in this complex.
Annoying as in every year, the 'latch' a by the pool a trip or excursion or fabulous imprint wanted. Unfortunately there were only a few intelligent, if you the offer refused, because none could understand, we only wanted to relax!
The beach area was great, but we, due to the water temperature, not used! But there were at least the possibility, the 'latch' by hanging a small red fähnchens from the neck to keep.
Everywhere where you went there were small stations, where you can have a eating and drinking could, also very nice.
The possibility the use the à-la-carte -restaurants we tried once and very dissapointed the occasion were! The food was simple a catastrophe, whereas the staff much friendly as in the main restaurant!
The neighboring area with use and we had a 2 heated pools available. But be careful, the towels you had to of its facilities and could then to other facilities!
The main restaurant also had 2 office spaces, each ' waiter ' another method had the guests frighten away:
On the one hand you had to(when 3 persons) at a large table set, since the 4. tables only with a cover for 2 lapses were-it was too probably pedantic all 4 squares to ceilings.
On the other side we wanted to get it right and sat right at the large table, where we again scares away were, because. We are only 3., as if on a 4. ran, although the also only with a 2. cover were provided. Well, after a week you had the trick then out.
Alcohol without sense and sensibility spent, the cocktails were simply only badly!
Caution on the way the senzo mall!
We were greeted by 2 teenage pushy is, without always electronic toys offer wanted. In the hotel we then feast, our trouser pockets emptied were-and we didn't hear anything!
The same thing happened a hamburger couple, only had the less lucky as we (for us it was only about 40 €) at it acted around 250 €, from a backpack, under the sweater was, stolen!
All together again a quite acceptable facilities, with some downsides, on the one, except for the odor in the room, overlooked. read more

2. time in Mamlouk, it is a 3 time in give

After 2012, we were in the Mamlouk for the 2. time. We were naturally curious, whether with the change of ownership to 01-11-2012 to Sentido something has changed, although the operators still the sunrise group is. So much already times in advance: if at all, until today, little change, at least for us tourists not visible. But there are also only 4 months since the change passed.
We have again spend a very nice vacation. Of course, the really beautiful weather (25-28° c and hardly clouds) a major contribution, but the nice hotel and its staff have the most important ... contribution, that we were very comfortable and like to come again. We read other reviews again and again once problems in the hotel or staff. Just as much the hotel the satisfaction of the guests very important. Therefore always with the responsible the problem address. Generally very quickly and the guest help.
We are again with Neckermann traveled. It has worked out well. Short wait time at the airport, the transfer was short and in the hotel we were then Omar, a staff of the partner agency of Neckermann in Hurghada expected. It has everything the front desk managed. Old dates in sunrise saved, we have again exactly the same room as every year previously earned. We were right at the beach accommodated. Thus were the ways to the main building and restaurant very far (circa 350 meters), but so we had at least from and to a bit of exercise. Also the check-out took place on time, as well as all booked excursions were very good from the Neckermann-partners organized and carried out.
This time we have a quad tour (circa 2 hours) and our snorkeling trip with the Neckermann-partner in the hotel booked. The snorkel excursion led us to mahmaya beach ( privatabschnitt ), the much more expensive (about 20 Euro per person) was the trip to the paradise beach, which is also at the beach from the local offerer advertised. The schiffsabfahrt was not at the hotel-investors, but the Marina in Hurghada (20-30 minute bus ride). The ships were only with single language groups (the local providers usually very mixed) occupied, so german among themselves. Also the number of the mitreisenden per ship the compact framework, so that each lots of space had. The trip was from a german-speaking guide accompanied. Another big advantage of this offer to the local provider is, that the lunch on the land (not on board) at a restaurant in pleasant atmosphere and decent quality was taken, very clean toilets available were. On the beach itself (beautiful sand ) we could then snorkelling, sunbathing or under schilfschirmen simply only relax. Who times kurzzeitkapitän want to be, should simply times to the master shall apply. This pool was a completely successful measure.
For the quad tour, we want all a recommendation give: if you stay in the egyptian winter vacation makes, should take warm clothes for the tour with you. Please do not by the pleasant temperatures at the beach be fooled, it is in the desert partly very cold.
The guest structure is very international: russians and Poland (in things trinkerei not better than russians), dutch, belgian, danish, english and german. Through their mentality and trinkeslust it is often to noise or loud discussions, which the peace-seeking companies guests then disturbs but much. On the whole, it was very as a part of kept. A snoozing drunk have all the 14 days not seen.
As i know, that the reviews by the hotel be read, at this point still a suggestion: it is for dinner appropriate clothing is required. Why is this not enforced? Fears the hotel, the one or other russian guest to annoy? Flip-flops, joggingsachen, shorts can probably not than adequate be described.
Particularly we thank that Mostafa from the Neckermann-office, the restaurant-manager Mostafa meter and naturally at hosny, our absolute favorite waiter from of the lobby-bar.
To 2012, at the hotel even nothing significant changes. The hotel is altogether in a quite good condition. In february 2012 still under construction, is the cold water pool for three-quarters of a year finished. Very big and very nice. If you like swimming and the cold water handle, with the about 100 metres long pool ideal opportunities. If you prefer to stay in the warm want to swim, should the adjoining smaller pool, but with significantly more frosty be expected.
In the area of the lobby-bar we would other chairs be, since these on duration not really comfortable for the back.
The cleanliness in the hotel and all its outdoor area was a lot of attention. Always cleaning staff in the main building, the restaurant, the pool areas, at the beach and the wahsrooms outside on the way, in order to make for cleanliness.
For handicapped people the hotel not really adequate. read more

The hotel is outside very nice, large reception building and small buildings around several pools. It is directly at the beach, although the way there are very long, from the main building (restaurant ) to the beach are certainly 1200 metres. The but that didn't disturb me definitely not.
The entertainment at the heated pool for my taste too loud. The loungers at the pool and sea were partly in extremely bad condition.
The hotel is not handicapped or kinderwagengerecht. The lobby, the pram over several floors be borne.
The hotel is located in the entry lane to the airport ..., it is therefore often loud by arriving aircraft. However, it is not so terrible disturbing.
Very suitable for children, accordingly many families with children.
There were under the guests very lots of russians, Poland, german, some scandinavian and a great deal locals as guests, partly also strongly veiled women.
None of the guests is very negative. read more

General:
The hotel has a very nice landscaped gardens. Because of the size you see the hotel its high number definitely not at. The building are equipped with three floors. On the basis of the main building is the complex crateriform and easily bolted down in the direction sea, so you don't from all buildings a view on the sea has.
The condition of the hotel is in general quite good. Smaller renovations are still necessary. The lobby is in the oriental style and is very comfortable. Only the toilets in the lobby are extremely ageing. Sufficiently seat possibilities are ... everywhere.
All interior and exterior areas are very clean and well cared for.
A large plus is, that the complete plant inkluve restaurants etc. The neighboring hotels Sunrise Garden Beach also can use.
Guest structure:
If you to Hurghada in the vacation fly and informed beforehand, you know from the lots of russian guests. Also in the Sentido Mamlouk was a big part of the guests from Russia, Poland etc. Sometimes it makes it very noisy and game (for example in the restaurant) in the hotel, what a general problem of lots of hotels is. It is, however, tolerable and sometimes it very have fun you on the essenstisch or drunk in the disco to watch.-)
I have to but also say, that i was very surprised, that it was so many germans guests. The average age is already somewhat higher, which does not mean, that the hotel for young people nothing is. The hotel is quite suitable for young couples, singles or groups.
Internet:
Wireless internet in the hotel is subject to charges. Can select between 15, 30 and 60 minutes or 6 days for about 30 Euro. The connection is in of the lobby very good, enough but also until to the beach.
Alternatively there is an internet corner with computers. Prices are not familiar to us. read more

Especially great was the El Paso restaurant and the waiters. Sabry, karam, alnoby, Gamal, Mohamed, Ahmed.
Very family-friendly hotel, very clean. Food consistently alright, at the beach bars a bit monotonous. A little vegetables or rice would be better. The breakfast was great and very extensive.
Otherwise we would the hotel book immediately again. read more

The hotel is actually really good. The rooms are big enough, here and there may small repairs to be made. This would the picture clearer make for example if the down plaster comes. Cleanliness is completely okay. Had 2 times dirty linens, but they were after a short information immediately. Nationality is different. But mainly russians, what i personally didn't bother me. Age from young to old everything available. read more

The furnishings of the hotel actually offers everything you need for a family vacation need (wi-fi, wellness & spa center, huge heated pool, very good entertainment programs for young and old, great private beach).
The hotel is mostly by russian tourists about 70% every age group use. The rest are westerners, mainly from the german-speaking area.
The value for money in the hotel is very good. read more

I was fully satisfied with the hotel and would immediately spend another vacation there again have a vacation. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The food i also tasted very good and there was also a large selection of different dishes. I thought it was great that there was every night certain theme buffets (for example German buffet or mexican buffet.) The room was very well maintained and clean. The site is very big, so the main restaurant circa 1000 meters to to the beach are, which however not is bad. The beach is very clean and there ... is a about 500 metres long pier to a reef was. You could also everything on the premises the neighboring hotels (Sentido Garden Beach resort) use. The heated pool was pleasant 30 degrees. There was a main restaurant and 4
à la carte restaurants. There were many leisure facilities for example surfing, snorkelling excursions and bannanaboot drive.
I would not hesitate to stay here have a vacation read more

The hotel for november 2012 under the brand Sentido sold the management is however still sunrise hotels & resorts. Here is the biggest problem currently. Sentido are the internal competition from Neckermann/Thomas Cook to Iberostar and Riu his. But since it is at franchising are the differences in the quality in the Sentido hotels nor very big.
Sentido promises. Welcome drink, erfischungstuch, free wi-fi in of the lobby. None of this has been fulfilled. The first two things depending upon desire and mood. Internet costs 30 Euro/ 6 days. There is still room for improvement. The hotel is beautifully laid ... out in a u-form directly on the private beach. It features 90 family rooms, to the right of the main building in the room area 15 xxx in the summer should it against the pool in the evening a bit noisy. (2 sleeping areas, a large bathroom and plenty of cupboard space, as well as a minibar, 2 tvs, safe. Double room gives it to 530 in the entire hotel in 3-story buildings (without elevator) spread.
Guests from Germany, France, Eastern Europe and Egypt. And the people the fuss, that in Egypt, egyptians vacation and after their ideas life they should really stay at home. For this statement in one of the previous review, i have no sympathy. read more

We are on 9-2-2013 after a week stay returned. The short transfer and the without any problems notification and transport were great. It was of many very good speak german and apart from that fluent english. Everyone worked really hard a to help, so you can also without english can do.
Our hotel location was close to at the airport, but the planes never disturbed, as lots of people have written here.
That was our 1. Egypt vacation after we Turkey, Spain and in Tunisia were.
We found the hotel with its outstandingly beautiful garden area great. It seemed like ... 1001 Nacht on us.
The food was very good and everything was clean and well-kept, friendly staff without hecticness.
Next to the 4 topics -restaurants you can also enjoy the neighboring hotel sunrise and there eat out. It was the food exactly good, only a bit brighter in the restaurant because of the massive glass facade.
We tried everything, which we very varied and never something to complain about had. For all was something for everyone, a lot of fresh fruits, super fine cakes as the confectioner made, as well as much vegetables and large selection of bread and much more.
It annoys us, here before so much bad to have read.
We asked ourselves, what these people probably then at home food and why not in Germany stayed. It is in other words abroad! All gave themselves the largest trouble and every day was everywhere cleaned.
Certainly were many eastern europeans since, however, you can't change. Surely it was already times louder, but we were in german and english experienced. The area is very extensive and had at this time hardly any contact. From the unrest from the tv was never something to remember.
Our summary. We would gladly come again as soon as possible. The weather was wonderful, the beach really clean and the red sea simply magnificent. read more

Very nice and well kept complex. The adjacent Garden Beach can completely be used (also all the bars and restaurants). I was at the end of january at 10 days there. The first days the guest structure took some getting used to. Very lots of russians, noisy with a lot of alcohol, and many arabs without eating habits and children, all were (finger of food including). Beginning february more westerners, many germans, because of this more peace and dissatisfied food in the buffet. read more

The hotel which two hotel areas, we can absolutely recommend.
The rooms offer everything you need are large and practically equipped with a balcony or terrace.
The service is great, if a thing not like, one announces it and the complaints were immediately repaired.
The food is of course not like in Germany and that's why a bit hard to get used to but you can find his favorite food.
During our holiday time there were about 60% russian guests but no not to behave itself can.
The remaining 40% were german, dutch and polish guests.
The age structure was ... from 20 to 60 well distributed and where felt they all understood. read more

The is a beautiful hotel, we were there with our joys and are with the service and all other very satisfied. Unfortunately i must also say, that the entertainment very weak for such a good hotel!
Most of the entertainers could almost only russian and even with english their problem, german is at the almost everyone except a not available. The evening show is way too short and starts way too late at!
But really annoying is, that the entertainers are more concentrated, a drive in the disco for sale! You were after a time correctly on the nerves that! read more
