We visited the Eden Rock as a party of four. We found the staff excellent. Very polite from the start.The rooms were clean and well appointed with all the facilities we needed.
The food was adequate but a little boring. The evening meal was always chicken in some different sauces with rice.Well cooked and prepared, but a bit more veriety would have been nice.
The view from the hotel is brilliant. Access to the beach was by steep steps with the alternative a 10min taxi ride. Not for the infirm or disabled.
We had a problem whilst there.Thomson staff were as usual unavailable, but the reception staff were fantastic and helped us through .
Overall I would return but probably b and b only.

The hotel Eden Rock is definitely NOT for guests with mobility problems. Overlooking the bay of Naama, the hotel is accessed at the rear via what became known as 'The Steps of Hell'. 115 steps to be precise which rise at an obtuse angle from the street. That was the only complaint that our group of 22 had about this hotel during a 2 week diving trip.
The hotel is kept spotlessly clean, the food is varied and caters for all requirements and the staff could not be more helpful. In particular the hotels middle management. Our original booking was for triple rooms but we were allocated twin rooms on arrival, at no extra cost. After week 1, when some of the party returned home, we were moved to ground floor accommodation and again retained twin rooms at no charge.
The rooms are immaculately kept and each day the cleaners had made up some or other 'models' with the bath towels. Guy fawkes like dummies sat on the bed watching tv or on the toilet, classic.
I would definitely return here no qualms, but would want a sherpa or a lift! There is no entertainment at the hotel but then, Sharm el Sheikh isn't that type of resort.

Once you have negotiated the madness of Sharms airport we boarded our bus to our hotel.
We went to Egypt with some trepidation, but were surprised to find immediatly on arrival at our hotel the quality and friendliness of the staff. There was never enough they could do for you. They even chasdised us one day because the gardener had watered our room aswell, so we borrowed the cleaners mop, with him close behind. Yes him, all staff in the resort our men.
We did find the pool a bit cold, but who really cares when you have the Red Sea down the steps, with such an array of fish to see when snorkeling from the beach. We did feel there was a need for a few more sun beds.
The location of the hotel could not be better really the steps are a bit of a drag but you have to walk off the buffet meals and cakes some how, the food was of good quality and variety and freshly prepared.
The views of the desert and the bay from the hotel must be among the best in Naama bay,
We hope to return this winter.
