Hi Hempo, I came home 12 th Jan. Dont think I can really help on this one except to say-there was still building work going on. Not too sure if they were the superior rooms you asked about. I actually took some photos of the building work around.

Why not email The Conrad direct and ask them. I contacted them couple of times before I went away always had a quick response.
Put it FAO Mr Waleed Bahgat sharmelsheikinfo@conradhotels.com

Hello Hempo,

Just to let you know I have uploaded my pics of the The Conrad on the photo gallery thanks to the advice of Mrs Mac.
Some have captions but I uploaded some without, a (HT Allmen)moderator is helping out with those. These are very recent pics hope they are of help.

Regards
Fran

Hello,

I'm going to the Conrad in september, for the 2nd time. we're thinking of booking through eclipse rather than first choice, as its much cheaper. has anyone done this? will we have any different service? is it safe to book online? Also, has anyone parked their car at gatwick while they were away? is that safe?

thanks!!!

Hi

Yes I've done it, every time!
You will receive exactly the same service as FC customers from the moment you book, you will deal with the same cabin crew and reps, your holiday will be identical to that of FC customers but (usually) cheaper.

We've booked several holiday online with http://www.eclipsedirect.co.uk and never had any security issues.

We booked through Eclipse and although First Choice left our luggage in London and then failed to give us any help or get our luggage to us until the middle of the last full day, I do not believe we were singled out because we were "Eclipse", I am sure they would have treated everyone the same if they could.

Prices on the Eclipse/First choice website are exceptionally good about 3-4 weeks before departure date,especially from Manchester.I went to the Conrad last Nov/Dec and was given the web price by phoning First Choice direct.If I could have gone 4 days later than I did,the price for 2 people for 2 weeks was £697!

Hi, we had our first visit to the Conrad in January and really enjoyed it, so much so that we have booked to return for 2 weeks in September. I was wondering if anyone has been at this time of year, if so did you find it busy, ie restaraunts, sunbeds, bars and even the jetty out to the sea. The Hotel seemed to run very smoothly when we were there in January although i dont think it was fully booked. We found the staff were very helpful and friendly. 8)

what a fantastic web site!

We are off to Conrad in 8 days time and I read "Building work"?

Can someone please give me more information as waking up to Bob the builder every morning is not my cup-of-tea!

Cheers

Stephen
