AI Summary
The hotel excels in cleanliness and professional service. Its serene setting near the beach and family-friendly facilities are highlighted. However, some guests prefer traditional Chinese cuisine over the varied breakfast.

Although the hotel was built earlier, it is well maintained.
The room service guy is very nice and comes whenever you call. He greets you warmly every time he passes by. The sand on the private beach is relatively fine. If you want to go to the pier, there are free shuttle buses all day, but I think the hotel's private beach is beautiful enough.
The hotel restaurant service staff is very bad. They treat white people and Chinese differently. My husband was not allowed to enter the restaurant because he was wearing slippers. The restaurant manager emphasized the dress code to me. Of course I knew it, but when two other white people entered on the same day, all the staff and managers pretended not to see it. It was really bad!

The rooms are old, the dinner buffet is a disaster! The breakfast is OK. The dinner buffet is 2800 Egyptian riels if you don't order a half pack, excluding all drinks, almost no meat, and various bread salads. You have to buy mineral water too! It's a steal. It's better to walk a few steps to the commercial area outside. 100 per person to eat as much as you want.

Somabay Kempinski in Hurghada. The room facilities, breakfast, dinner and beautiful views are all online. However, many netizens have mentioned that they are not as enthusiastic towards Asians as towards whites. For example, for breakfast for 3 days, I only met a waiter who took the initiative to ask what coffee I wanted on one day. No one asked for it on the other two days. When the waiter was collecting the plates, I mentioned that I needed coffee. He brought it almost 10 minutes later. During this period, he brought coffee and tea to several white guests who had just sat at the table next to me several times. He didn't forget, but he ignored you and was rude. It's not a communication problem in English. I have lived in the United States for more than ten years and I think I have no accent in English. Moreover, the waiter was very enthusiastic to bring coffee on the first day of the breakfast buffet, and I gave a tip. More than 90% of the tourists are white, and most of them don't tip, after all, it's just a breakfast buffet. However, the hotel is in a good location with a shuttle to the snorkeling pier. Walking to the supermarket and several restaurants next to it (I tried three Chinese and Western restaurants, all tasted average), it's not as good as the hotel dinner buffet. SOMABAY is very windy, very windy! I came from Beijing and I also felt that it was very strong... It's not good, so I can only go to the SPA. It's heated poor and I can't play in the lazy river. It's a pity...

Overall, it is a very good resort hotel. We stayed there during the Spring Festival. The room was very large and clean. We chose the half-board buffet restaurant, which had good breakfast and dinner. There are also other restaurants that we can choose at our own expense. There are many activities for entertainment. We basically played tennis in the morning and went to the beach to snorkel, swim, or dig sand in the afternoon. You can see the coral reefs by walking down the beach in front of the hotel. It is very convenient and you don't need to go to the pier. It is also very shallow, which is friendly for those who can't swim. The water was not too cold during the Spring Festival. Another very touching point is that it happened to be a child's birthday during our stay. The hotel sent a birthday cake and decorated the room. We were not told about this in advance, which gave us a surprise. Overall, the Spring Festival vacation was very happy and I recommend it to Chinese people.

Beware of the disgusting operation of the hotel! It is recommended that you carefully check the room facilities before checking in, otherwise you will be framed for damaging the room items when checking out. We were about to go to the airport to catch a flight, and the front desk told us that the balcony glass in the room was damaged. After we explained that the balcony glass was not damaged, we were still prevented from getting on the car to the airport. Fortunately, there are photos taken when we checked in, which can prove that the balcony glass was damaged before checking in, but the damaged part was too small so we did not find it when we checked in.
Why didn't the hotel carefully check before the guests checked in and provide the room with safety hazards to the guests? The damage that can be checked after checking out was not found before checking in. Is it intentional to ask for high compensation? Very disgusting operation, extremely bad.

I stayed at the Castle Hotel first and then the Kempinski. I can only say that the food, service and rooms are much better than the Castle Hotel! The hotel beach is also of high quality. You can also go to the jetty platform for snorkeling by taking the resort's shuttle bus. In general, it is a very comfortable hotel in Hurghada (the only drawback is that there is nothing to do around, and it is a bit boring at night
