Un hôtel au charme fou, une propreté impeccable et un service d'exception : j'espère vraiment y retourner bientôt. J'ai adoré l'élégance du lieu, la musique et le service incroyable, vivement mon prochain séjour ! Tout était parfait, des tenues de soirée à l'ambiance musicale ; c'est une adresse où je reviendrai sans hésiter. Entre la propreté irréprochable et l'attention de l'équipe, ce séjour était magique et j'ai hâte d'y séjourner à nouveau.

Nous avons aimé les équipements et la qualité de notre chambre et la vue

Nous avons passé un magnifique séjour dans ce superbe hôtel. Tout était parfait, très bien entretenu et très propre. Personnel adorable, mention spéciale à Sherif Ibrahim au bar, à Salem Ahmed et ses collègues au restaurant buffet. Adresse à recommander les yeux fermés!
Petit bémol concernant les restaurants à thème qui ne sont pas à la hauteur du standing de l'hôtel, mis à part le restaurant Alex Beach qui est top! Dommage que personne à la réception ne parle français.
The property is extremely clean and the staff are very friendly and welcoming. Would definitely come back again. A very special thanks goes out to meena in the reception for his outstanding performance professionalism he always takes the extra step to make our stay perfect.
Just a small remark maybe the bathroom doors should provide more privacy in the rooms. Other than that everything is perfect.
شكرا سيفا ومينا
L’établissement est très propre, le personnel est professionnel et souriant.
Les cocktails dans le bar à côté de la piscine ne sont pas bons.

Food variety at the main restaurant Pool cleaness Room condition However our concerns were addressed and solved Thanks to Reham and Dawood
. Everything was great. The rooms are very comfortable and the beds are excellent. But what impressed me most was the staff. Everyone is always smiling, friendly, and ready to help. I can't wait to come back! A special thanks to SHERIF FATHY from Tamarind. He is a wonderful person, always helpful and with a big smile. Thank you for making our stay even better!
Great location very friendly stuff.
I booked all inclusive they just need to work on their menu and offer fresh juices instead of packed ones if I compared paid money it worth looking it up. Pools need more maintenance.

Great stay! Thanks to all the staff from the hotel for such great experience. Special mention to Jessica in the reception for all the help, all the waiters, especially, on lobby bar and the self, as well as all the staff on the beach and restaurants.
Propreté Accueil Piscine Très belle plage Restaurants
فرش الاسره والمخدات خشنه وقديمه وبقع وغير مريحه المخده جناح وفي 4 أماكن ومع ذلك دفعت زياده ع سعر لا يستحق مبلغ البوفيه كان جدا عادي والمشاوي مو مستويه مو قد المدح ولا يستحق يكون 5 نجوم
The hotel is big, even though the hotel was fully booked we didn’t feel it was crowded. Staff was so helpful and friendly
كان كل شئ جيد من موظفين الاستقبال وخاصة جيسكا وكذلك الخدمات والمرافق والشاطئ
The property is huge, with a nice layout and plenty of beautiful green areas. The food was excellent—probably the best open-buffet experience I’ve had in Hurghada in terms of both quality and variety. The drinks, however, were below expectations. The juices were not fresh and seemed to be artificial. Soft drinks were also disappointing, as they were often served from large bottles rather than cans. As a result, they were not always well carbonated or properly preserved, which affected the overall quality of the drinks.
The beach was very disappointing. The water is extremely shallow, which makes swimming difficult. In addition, boats using the hotel’s dock appear to contribute to pollution in the area, with oil residue and trash frequently visible in the water. As a result, the sea often feels unclean and sometimes has a noticeable smell of oil. There is also a persistent unpleasant smell around the golf area, similar to a sewage or toilet smell. It may be related to the insecticides or chemicals used to maintain the surrounding green areas, but regardless of the cause, the smell negatively affects the experience in that part of the resort.
Tüm personel sabah akşam çok güleryüzlüydü. Her gün oda temizliği yapılıyordu. Tertemiz ferah çok büyük ve güzel tesis

Unser Aufenthalt im Steigenberger ALDAU Hotel war einfach außergewöhnlich. Von der ersten bis zur letzten Minute war alles perfekt – besser hätte es wirklich nicht sein können! Das gesamte Personal war unglaublich freundlich, aufmerksam, professionell und hilfsbereit. Man fühlt sich hier nicht nur als Gast, sondern wirklich wie etwas Besonderes. Auch unser Zimmer war hervorragend: sauber, komfortabel, wunderschön und mit allem ausgestattet, was man sich wünschen kann. Die Übernachtung war einfach traumhaft. Das Essen war ebenfalls fantastisch – eine riesige Auswahl, hervorragende Qualität und geschmacklich einfach top. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wir waren extrem zufrieden und können dieses Hotel mit bestem Gewissen weiterempfehlen. Für uns war es ein rundum perfekter Urlaub und definitiv fünf Sterne wert. Vielen Dank an das gesamte Team für diesen wunderschönen Aufenthalt! Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder. ❤️
Nix. Alles war PERFEKT!!

Bonjour, Je tenais à vous remercier pour ce merveilleux séjour dans votre hôtel. J’ai passé un très bon moment et j’ai beaucoup apprécié l’accueil et le service. Je souhaite surtout remercier chaleureusement mlle Jessica et Martin a la réception et surtout M. Daoud pour sa gentillesse, son attention et son professionnalisme. Il a vraiment contribué à rendre mon séjour encore plus agréable. Un grand merci à toute l’équipe, et particulièrement à M. Daoud. Je reviendrai avec grand plaisir ! 🙏😊
Clean, nice place. Sruff is very knd and helpful. Room are very spacious, bathrooms also. We had a bathtub and a shower. Food was excellent. Late breakfast and late dinner are available. Big variety of a la carte restaurant. Pool was available, we could use the aquapark of the other Steigenberger Hotel..

The spacious rooms , the swimming pools, the beach , the friendly and very helpful staff and the food . The reception staff were very helpful and helped us a lot when needed late check out.
The water was not hot in the shower, one of the restaurants on the pool had order service preferably if it was open buffet as service was little slow
Mr. Marten, Mr. Nour and all the stuff are perfect and helpful.
Les extérieurs sont magnifique Le personnel
Le bruit de la construction de l hôtel a côté Revoir la qualité des dessert aux repas Il y a une belle terrasse extérieure mais fermé c est dommage
واجهتني مشكله بالغرفه وحلتها لبي امينه وجتني ازمه صحيه وكانت معي امينه في كل اموري كانت معي اشكرها جداً وجودها بالمنتجع اعطاني انطباع ثاني واذا بوصي بالمنتجع حيكون بسبب وجود امينه فيه انسانه رائعهاشكرها من مل قلبي

La nourriture et la piscine.
Le Service, les personnes qui sert dans la restauration, fessait des différences en fonction des origines des personnes. Nous avons été plusieurs fois desservi après des personnes de type occidentales et fessait passée les personnes d’origine maghrébines après… L’accueil à l’arrivée et au départ des voyageurs à revoir, en tout cas pour nous cela a été très froid. Dommage que nous ayons était mis dans des chambres loin de tout et proche des travaux de conduite qui nous dérangeait par le bruit…les oreillers à revoir une catastrophe trop moue et faut mal à la tête.
Superb and amazing hospitality

The hotel offers quite a good variety of food, spacious and comfortable rooms, and a range of interesting entertainment options. We asked about a room upgrade and were offered one at a very reasonable price.
The hotel is extremely unfriendly towards families with children. Children are not allowed to use the gym, spa, hot tub, or sauna, even when accompanied by adults. There are even certain restrictions on children’s access to the swimming pool. The gym policies are particularly unreasonable. I was denied access simply because I was wearing sandals, despite it being obvious that I have plenty of gym experience and clearly understand how to use the equipment safely. This was very disappointing. Another strange rule is that the pool is closed after 5:00 PM. And, believe it or not, there are even signs stating that swimming is prohibited in the pool. Fortunately, nobody actually stopped me from swimming. The garden area is quite large and green, but the cleanliness and maintenance of the lawns and pathways leave much to be desired. Probably the biggest issue, however, is the designated smoking area in the lobby. The smell of cigarette smoke spreads throughout the entire lobby and even reaches the rooms located above it, making the environment quite unpleasant.
Omar the reception manager is so helpful Thanks a lot All was super
Everything was good and nice services. The room nice clean and organized, the food was so good and team management was very helpful and friendly

What I like best about the resort is the privacy and tranquility. And, of course, the incredibly friendly staff. This was our second time staying at the resort, and we would go back again and again. It feels a bit like home.
Honestly, I have nothing to complain about, except maybe that two weeks weren't enough.
The hotel is amazing, I like everything, the facilities the food , and the staff were so nice and so helpful, thank you steigenberger
The new room renovation and location of my room location
The absence of bidet or water hose in the newly renovated bathroom

Wonderful staff, food, location, and rooms! It was so lovely, I would 100% stay here again

There is nothing to dislike about this property
From the moment we arrived until the day we checked out, everything about our stay exceeded our expectations. The hotel itself is absolutely stunning, beautifully maintained, spotlessly clean, and with excellent facilities. The food was exceptional throughout our stay, with a fantastic variety and consistently high quality. What truly made this hotel stand out, was the incredible staff. Every single team member we interacted with was warm, welcoming, professional, and genuinely committed to making our stay as enjoyable as possible. Their friendliness, attention to detail, and willingness to go above and beyond created an unforgettable experience. The level of service here is simply outstanding and sets a benchmark for hospitality. It’s clear that the staff take great pride in what they do, and it shows in every interaction. We had a wonderful holiday and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for an exceptional experience. We can’t wait to come back!
