Wadi El Hitan

We stayed at Steigenberger Alcazar all-inclusive hotel for 9 nights in early April. The hotel is clean, with spacious rooms and a stunning coral reef just off the pier — a clear highlight of the trip. However, several issues made the experience less enjoyable. There aren’t enough bathrooms across the resort grounds, which was inconvenient. The beach is shallow (1–2 feet) and not swimmable — you can only enter deep water at the end of a long pier. The snorkeling pier only opened around 10 a.m., even though mornings were calm and cooler — a missed opportunity for guests. Pools closed at 5 p.m. daily for chlorine cleaning, which left a strong smell and could have been scheduled later without disrupting guests. Service was minimal. At the buffet, no one checked if we needed drinks or utensils. No waiters by the pool. Towels could only be exchanged through room service, which wasn’t convenient. À la carte restaurant staff didn’t know the menu well — e.g., confusing sake with soy sauce. Descriptions were also off: a “seaweed salad” was mostly carrots, and “salmon on beets” came without beets. The spa felt neglected — low on towels and only one of four steam rooms working. While the reef and natural beauty were amazing, poor service and puzzling management decisions really held this place back. With better hospitality and attention to detail, this resort could be great. For now, I wouldn’t recommend it.

Defs a adults only resort, if youre looking for late nights dancing and drinking this is the spot. Buffet is huge and pretty good. Several pools and the hotel itself is pretty. Only stayed one night, but only complaint is you only get 2 bottles and then you gotta pay? Its supposedly all inclusive...

We just checked out after a wonderful 5-night stay at Baron Hotel with my two children, and we couldn’t be happier. From start to finish, everything was excellent — truly a 5-star experience. The hotel is in a quiet, exclusive, and peaceful area of Hurghada, perfect for families. The property is beautiful, very well maintained, with lush landscaping, plenty of trees, and several outdoor pools. The early morning and sunset bird sounds added a special touch. Our room was spacious with a balcony offering stunning views of both the desert and the sea. Staff were professional, respectful, and always ready to help without being intrusive. The food was great — the main buffet and five à la carte restaurants (Chinese, Japanese, Egyptian, Mexican, and a grill) are part of the all-inclusive package. We especially loved the grill for its high-quality meats and seafood. The beach is swimmable — a rarity in the area — with beautiful coral reefs just offshore. The hotel’s water sports center provided complimentary snorkels, which made for unforgettable snorkeling with the kids. Evenings featured live shows like belly dancing and magic, and we enjoyed exploring the coastal path by golf cart. The resort is also highly accessible — our daughter uses a wheelchair, and this was a key reason we chose this hotel. Highly recommended for a relaxing and family-friendly Red Sea getaway.
