Hotels in Egypt
And now a tips and recommendations. The most commonly sold categories of hotels in Egypt are three or four stars. Three stars are usually guaranteed to satisfy the essential requirements of tourists. Hotel in this category should have a room equipped with individually controlled air conditioning, shower or bathtub with hot running water all day (meaning the taps – but from a crack in a pipe :-), a refrigerator should be cleaned every day, including the towel. Many 3hv. hotel has safes in the rooms (although you get the key from him, sometimes only at extra cost), the phone is commonplace. Tourists are a reception, staff are usually able to communicate in several languages (Russian + :-), then most of them mean speech notes with a value of 10 USD or Euro, for which you meet the accommodation in terms of everything you see in your eyes …
Higher category hotel, then bring diverse service upgrades: a better and newer equipment rooms, hotels, sports facilities, sauna, shops in the whole gallery sites, etc. You only go through catalogs and travel agencies to choose …
Some tips for ‘better’ accommodation:
* If you arrived at the hotel before the official check-in and reception staff to pretend that you refuse accommodation before, do not hesitate to give him from 10 to 20 U.S. dollars, within seconds you are staying (obviously applies even if you travel organized by a travel agency and the delegate is unable to arrange it myself).
* If you do not like the location of the allocated room (such as windows into the street instead of the sea), immediately Geronimo back towards the reception and ask for a replacement. Most likely there is a medium-term verbal duel, resulting in a claim by a hotel employee that no other room is not free, so you can not do anything. Support your argument correct bill (U.S. $ 20 should suffice), a reception will restore memory to the extent that they better remember the number of available rooms and a smile will give you the keys.
* Upon arrival at the room – probably you introduce him to usher the hotel (while stretching with your luggage), they leave from leave to explain the function and operation of all equipment and yourself to try it now. Start of course, air conditioning (without almost certainly can not do and sleep to the sound of the madding monster is not pleasant), check the running water in the bathroom, refrigerator, TV, etc.. Also, make sure they go open (or closed) windows or doors to the terrace. If you find any defect, willingness to try to ensure the orderly correction (not that it should be in a “drill” itself) bakshees be happy to do it. If not willing, there would be other than (again?) Go to the reception and press on correcting the situation there. If the expert (you know him by that will have a screwdriver in hand) will not be able to remove failure detected, follow the same steps as in the previous point – calling for the exchange of rooms (of course if you have one receptionist gave the “Note”, now that you nothing happens it will not).
Living in Egypt in a private home or hostel
If you travel to Egypt on an individual basis, as you can of course choose the accommodation as well as a hotel, but it is necessary to contact him directly (more on individual travel to Egypt on our next page). However, you can use other options – one of them as accommodation in hostels or hostels, but it is to be expected with such a generally lower quality housing, which fully exports but its very low price. Such a stay is definitely not designed for “average” tourist, it requires a little courage and adventurous spirit.
Contrast, another variant of stay with accommodation in the private sector should satisfy anyone who requires a more intimate environment and not be restricted to be only a fixed time, lunch or dinner. In Egypt (and this applies to Cairo just as for example Hurghada) is available to many apartments and houses for rent – rent for 1 to 3 +1 fully equipped apartment in very good condition in Hurghada where you pay a monthly average stay 1 thousand . USD, which means the proportion of very good price (the approximate number of offers from agencies, in addition, we have to fall in 2009, lived in Hurghada for EL 600 a month – he who seeks finds :-).
