Hi, we'll be staying at the Novotel in six weeks time . As Derwentrocker says, it has good reviews and I've spoken to someone who stayed there last year. They loved it! I've been to Sharm before staying at the HIlton Sharks Bay and the Conrad but chose this as we wanted a good BB hotel in a central location so that we could enjoy all the restaurants etc. that Naama Bay has to offer. The hotel is on the promenade, just next to the Hilton Fayrouz.

We booked with Thomas Cook by phone to ensure we were booked into the Novotel not the Novotel Palms which is their sister hotel (not sure whether it is open yet) on the other side of the busy dual carriageway. On the Thomas Cook website there are various room choices but it is not obvious whether you are booking Novotel or Novotel Palms!

Toffee, you will probably have chosen your hotel by the time we get back but if anyone else has any questions about the Novotel do let me know and I'll endeavour to answer them on my return.

Hi we stayed at this hotel last march and yes its excellant.
The location is great,right on the beach ,and the staff were very attentive,we stayed b&b as we prefer to try different places to eat at night.
The breakfasts were lovely,the usual cereal,yoghurts,fresh fruits,hams,cheeses,lovely fresh bread,also a chef who would cook you an egg anyway you wanted it.
You could eat on the terrace which is really nice just overlooking the beach.Nice spacious pool area,but as we were so close to the beach tended to go on there most days,very comfortable sun loungers too.
Hotel rooms nice and airy, large bed and sitting area,fab bathroom with a great power shower,and some lovely toiletries.
Free digital safe in room and mini bar if you wanted it.
Hope this helps.

Sounds perfect ,can't wait!
