Baron Palace Sahl Hasheesh

Thank you to all the staff from front off house to the bars, restaurant, room attendants, and the very friendly gardener who wished us a lovely morning everyday a special thank you to the General Manager Mr Ail who made us so welcome and showed us around the grounds on our first day and spoke everyday after that. The hotel is definitely a 5 star the special touches by the staff making you feel welcomed and always on hand to help, the speciality restaurants are all lovely and ate at the Asian one twice as it was so nice, the hotel has a lovely chilled out vibe and the pools are just so inviting on hot sunny days, this hotel is spotless and will definitely be back the only thing I think could be doing with an upgrade is the premium drink I could get my gin and friends could get the vodka but if my husband wanted Bacardi you had to pay for it but wasn’t a big thing he got use to the local rum, will definitely be back next march

It was just like coming home. As soon as we walked into the foyer we were greeted by so many familiar faces. This year we had a side sea view room which is exactly the same as a club room, but without the benefits of club. Some of the menus have changed and the food is just as good as ever. There is a new lunchtime restaurant called Serene, which is beautiful, as is the food. The hotel is spotless. You always see staff out and about cleaning, even saw the gardeners sweeping the grass one day. The staff are hard working and so friendly, they'll do anything for you at the drop of a hat. The animation team are there if you want to get off your sunbed and do some activities. We want to thank everyone for all of your hard work and making our holiday so special again. I m going into the travel agents tomorrow to book for next year. Nigel and Christine.

Everything was as good or better than the reviews. The hotel is beautiful, spotlessly clean, full of smiling friendly and helpful staff. It was good to meet the manager Mr Ali and see him doing regular patrols. Outside the gardens are immaculate with a wide range of flowering plants, shrubs, trees, and grasses some of which are named. We enjoyed the fact that it was not too full and could get into all the restaurants we wanted to and find chairs and cabannas on the beach. We chose our pillows and liked the fluffy gowns. It is not a hotel with lots of activities on offer but we walked along the promenade each way, played in the boule competitions on the beach and regularly swam. There was snorkelling from the beach although the sea was fresh. Otherwise we enjoyed the rest and relaxation with the attentive service on hand which is what we had gone for. Breakfast was a treat sitting in the sunshine on the terrace by the fountain listening to gentle music from the cellist or violinist. I have just a few comments to make. The Club lounge had delicious looking snacks laid out daily but I was not tempted with the savoury ones as I had no idea how long they had been sitting out especially as they were not in a cool cabinet. A waste bin would be nice - to save leaving a mess on the counter. Indoors the marble corridors and stairs were lovely and always shiny and polished. However it was always difficult seeing each step - I wear vari-focal glasses which makes it doubly difficult. A dark ***** although not attractive would make them much safer. I found others who agreed with me. The restaurants offered a good choice of options but why make them quite so dark? We struggled not just to read the menus but in the Egyptian I had to use my phone torch to see what I was eating, being careful not to upset other customers. In the Bellavista we had a light clipped to our menu which I kept for the meal. The Mikado was one of our favourites but found the bar counter quite uncomfortable without a shelf for your knees to go under. It meant either sitting some way back and leaning over to eat (not easy in white trousers) or sitting sideways beside the counter. I've eaten terriyaki around the world but never not had a shelf to eat from. Another positive point to make is that we met some delightful and friendly guests, all as happy as we were. We hope to return.

First time at Baron Palace but hugely impressed with the whole set up. Only 35 minutes from Hurghada Airport it is very large and very imposing when you arrive. We were only in the “ basic” room described as deluxe it was roomy as was the on-suite, nice balcony included. The food was very good breakfast, lunch and dinner, 6 restaurants plus two of the pools had their own bar and restaurants, one of these is an adults only for those not bringing kids and not wanting to listen to other peoples. 30 minute walk along the beech takes you to Sahi Hasheesh some nice bars and restaurants. Staff could not have done more and everyone was very friendly, we would go again

The hotel itself is beautiful but the whole experience depends on the room you get to stay in... So careful there. The gardens are spectacular, pools and views breathtaking. The staff is amazing, especially in beach bars. I was very lucky to be helped and cared by Ali, the Head Bartender, who made my stay a dream vacation every day and helped to deal with any issues. Look for him on the beach!

Everything was perfect. From the moment we got there we felt that we are actually on vacation and that says a lot because not a lot of places are able to make you feel that way, especially from the start. We were on the full all inclusive program and that allowed us to enjoy all the nice beverages and the bars and dinners at all the a la carte restaurants(which by the way, have amazing food and exceptional service). The main restaurant serves varied and fresh food, with live cooking station and all sort of well prepared recipes. The pools are very well organized, spacious and well delimited between kid friendly and adult only, with helpful staff always on the ready. Best part of the hotel is yet to come…merely 50-100 meters from the shore(you can walk, water is shallow) there are corals with an amazing variety of fish and marine life, you can spend all your day snorkelling and you won’t get bored. All in all, a great vacation, I already booked another for the spring. Oh, and the vendors selling trips and what not on the beach are not agresive or intrusive at all(anyone who’s been to Egypt knows what I mean) which shows the respect the hotel has for its clients. Thank you, Baron, for a great stay. Looking forward to the next one
