JAZ Belvedere

"​We had an overall really good stay at the Jaz Belvedere—our fifth time staying at a Jaz property, and having visited Egypt many times across a variety of hotels, we know the area well. The hotel itself was very clean, and the grounds and gardens were beautifully kept. That being said, parts of the resort are showing their age now and are looking a little tired around the edges, so some areas could definitely do with a bit of refurbishment. Most of the staff were friendly and helpful, and because we tipped well, we received great service throughout our stay. Special mention goes to our room cleaner for room 1311, who was outstanding, as well as the bar staff, who were always wonderfully friendly even though the cocktails themselves were a bit hit-or-miss and lacked consistency. On the entertainment side, the animation team were very friendly, and there seemed to be quite a lot to do for smaller children. We attended one of the evening shows, which was okay, though we can't comment on most of the entertainment as we didn't attend the rest. ​The food overall was good quality, and we had no stomach issues at all during our stay, though it did feel a little samey after a while. One concern we had was at the outside BBQ area: we observed a chef wearing rubber gloves while making up beef and chicken skewers with raw meat, but then serving us cooked meat using that exact same pair of gloves right in front of us, which is poor hygiene practice. Additionally, the resort would definitely benefit from having a dedicated, standalone coffee shop. ​The beach was lovely and well-kept, though snorkeling is quite limited due to the hotel's specific location. We also found the on-site shops to be overpriced and not particularly friendly. On the positive side, the on-site pharmacist was great, and there was a nice international mix of guests, including Russian, Italian, European, and some English visitors. ​We did go on a trip and requested a packed lunch, which was provided, but unfortunately, the quality was very poor compared to what others on the excursion had brought from their respective hotels. Overall, though, it was a good stay with just a few minor areas that could use improvement"

"We enjoyed our stay, facilities are top notch, food is great, facilities clean and maintained. Reception helpful. Highly recommended."
