Reviewed 4 November 2014

We have stayed here for 5 nights so far and have found the staff, rooms and location to be very good & cleanliness standards are first class. The reception guys are all extremely helpful nothing is too much trouble to them.
The predominant nationality occupying the hotel are Russian, mainly families, who fortunately for us all prefer the beach to the pool so we have had the pool area to ourselves almost every day. The beds by the pool are modern and comfortable and the pool area is spotlessly clean.The gardens and rooms are well maintained & although some renovation is underway this does not intrude on current guests in any way.
As frequent visitors to dahab (this is our third visit this year)this hotel has slightly disappointed us with a couple of things; food and drink selection are below average in our opinion. Although the oriental outside meal was very good, another evening offered up dried out lasagne, and pizza as main course choices, which were way below the standard we expected having been recommended to this hotel by several friends who had stayed previously. It seems that budgets have been cut and breakfast and dinner fall short of what we have experienced at the iberotel dahabeya nearby at almost 40% less cost. It is a real shame also that there is such a limited choice of eating places included for guests on the all inclusive package, why not include at least 1-2 options from the beach bar menu a panini or burger would have made a welcome change for lunch at no more cost for the hotel. Perhaps the concern is that the children on the beach will order incessantly and wastage or costs will be high if so I am sure a voucher system could be devised that overcomes this whilst giving guests more choice. Also it would be nice to have dinner at the poolside restaurant included as an option for at least one stay during each week at no extra charge. We noted it has been almost empty most nights and at lunch although apparently a set menu is on offer for AI guests at lunch when we asked the guy seemed unsure of what the deal was. Cocktails on offer are very poor quality but this does not detract from the willingness, pleasant attitude and general helpfulness of the bar guys who are a delight to deal with. The restaurant staff and the chefs we have spoken to are all wonderful and are clearly working hard to please the guests on the budget provided. It could simply be that the hotel is catering to Russian tastes and expectations rather than their former predominantly European clientele.
The mini bar appears all to be charged with not even a few soft drinks included in the AI package as far as we can establish which is unusual for the local hotels here in our experience.
We noted that there is a 10le per person charge for the shuttle bus into dahab a service which has always been free at the hotels we used previously in the area , whilst this is not a major matter it is possibly an example perhaps of tighter budget controls so perhaps the Russian package holiday companies are driving a hard bargain.
It would be good to see the mix of nationalities previously enjoyed at this hotel restored. There is no issue with the Russian guests here with none of the alcohol induced rudeness we encountered in sharm, this is a much more family and water sports driven holiday environment and feels very safe despite the foreign office website still not stating it is safe to travel here.
I would say that this hotel is very good and with a few minor enhancements could be the excellent rating we have heard about from friends who stayed here previously.

Room tip: Sea side rooms are nice but will be improved further once renovations are completed.

Location of the hotel is great with one of the best beaches in Dahab with many activities that you can have during the day.

The rooms were clean, yet needs maintenance (A/C - TV)

The staff of the hotel were unprofessional and unfriendly.

although there were few small inconveniences i'd say that this hotel is very very good for any dahab trip. beach, wind, sun, sea, friendliness - all you need! for me it was a real pleasure to wake up and fall sleep almost on the beach shore.

we had HB so it was perfect to go to dahab or 3pools/bluehole etc right after breakfast. then enjoy your lunch in one of many very good dahab seaview restaurants (shark, everyday cafe, forsha, etc) - then go diving or snorkeling and after all these relaxing things i'd go to meet sunset at hotels beach.

next few days you have to spend in the sea with windsurfing - only with lunch break at swiss inn or any of neighbour hotels - they have slightly different menu, quality of kitchen and choice of fresh juices and sisha.

there are few corals right in the sea in front of hotels beach so you can practice lazy snorkeling while sunbathing

at 16 - vollayball!

this hotel and all lagoon is very sporty place and very family friendly with kids at the same time.

as it seems to be in bedouin's nature to handle prices very strange - "fair" taxi prices:

swiss inn to dahab center = 10 LE
swiss inn to blue hole 50-60 LE
swiss inn to 3 pools dive site 25-35 LE

Room tip: best rooms to choose - 202 to 208 garden view but very close to the beach, pool, restaurant, yet quite far from hotel and therefore less noise from a/c systems and staff
