The taxi drivers preferred english pounds - but the waiters/luggage lads, bar staff etc were all happy with egyptian pounds.
Hope this helps!
Will the waiters / bar staff etc take pound coins
just happy with any!!!! will try an get any electrical goods of you. we took a cd player and they all wanted it . offered any extra services. up to you what you want to do
Thanks for your help. I just hope we can all avoid the tummy bugs.
we went end of feb for two weeks and had no tummy problems at all. I think if you just use a bit of common sense you'll be ok. Try and use the a la carte at night, can be booked the morning before. Only better because the russians have no concept 'of a queue' and it gets a bit irritating to be knocked out of the way over a bit of chicken. Hope you have a great time! Wish it was us going. When we got back we booked for easter 2007 and we have never gone back to the same hotel before.
I TIPPED IN EGYP. POUNDS WHEN I WAS THERE, DID SMALL AMOUNTS AND THEN WHEN I GOT TO KNOW THE STAFF GAVE THEM EXTRA. STAFF DONT EARN THAT MUCH OUT THERE SO ARE GRATEFULL FOR ALL THE TIPS THEY GET.
ALSO EGYPTIANS LOVE THE ENGLISH AND WANTS ENGLAND SHIRTS, FOOTBALL TOPS, ETC ETC. WE ARE GOING MARCH NEXT YEAR AND WILL TAKE THEM A FEW SMALL GIFTS.

Hi,
we are going to the LTI on the 24th August and have been reading all the reviews on a number of websites
They do vary so greatly that you begin to wonder just how one person can rate it 1/10 one day and then a person who stayed there at the same time comes along and rates it 10/10.....
We have come to the conclusion that it is all down to the individual and a holiday is what you make of it at the end of the day......if you go with the intent to have an outstanding holiday then you shouldn't go wrong.....
Hopefully we will see you out there.....

Hi all
We are staying at the grand azure 31st August for a week and really looking forward to it although reviews have been somewhat 50/50!!
Anyhow i think we are just going to go and try not to worry about funny tummies or anything else. Glad i have found out this site though asit seems much more balanced and postive than the reviews you read elsewhere!!

Hi Rachel.....you will be there when we are......... 
I cant wait............
From what I can gather, getting a dodgey tummy happens everywhere, not just at the LTI so everybody is in the same boat.
Anyway, my holiday is gonna be wicked because it will be what I make of it......so I take what people say with a really really small pinch of salt......
27 days to go.................WOO HOO!!!!!!

We fly out on the 24th and can't wait!!
There have been mixed reviews but as it's already been said, a holiday is what you make if it.
We have read so much helpful advice in regards to Egypt and in particular the LTI so thank you all.

Hi, we're off to the Grand Azure on Monday
Was a little apprehensive after reading so many negative reviews on other sites, but from what I've read on here it seems like a great hotel. Very excited now!
One question: does anybody know which block the family rooms are situated in?
Thanks

We had two family rooms (I didn't like the first room as it was ground floor and the staff were really helpful). both were situated very near to the activity pool (where animation staff are), very close to the Buffet restuarant.
There are two types of family room, one that only has a partial wall (ie you can see over the top of it, to the other beds so offers very little privacy - which is what we were given first, the others are one large room with a proper dividing wall and door, you walk through the second room to get to your bathroom - which was alot better for us as with a 13 year old daughter and 11 year old son, they didn't mind sharing with each other, but didn't really want to see their parents naked
We liked the hotel, and would return abeit probably only for a week next time as the hotel is very remote.
