    The internet doesn’t work anywhere on the property except in the lobby. The bathrooms are not air conditioned. The lazy river is not for swimming. The water is not potable and they charge you for every bottle of water. The pool is small for such a big place. The location is far from everything.

    This place has great potential! The buildings and grounds are beautiful, but maybe in need of a few updates. Our first room didn’t have a working refrigerator so they moved us to an upgraded room. That was nice. The food at the restaurant is really good, plentiful, and satisfying.

    - The personal is speaking English but it was however difficult to understand each other. There was misundestanding on the chat before arrival (they didn't understand me right) and made a discount about the payment of the excursions which was great. - They wanted to pre-pay the money for the travel from Cairo to Siwa and they claimed they were not getting the money in their bank account. This way we lost 40 euros for the bank transaction instead of paying on arrival in the hotel. I got angry and decided to organize the trip by myself and the traveling company we used didn't ask for money before the trip. We paid 150$ after arrival in Siwa which is normal I think. - I asked for quiet room before arrival in whatsup and they provided a noisy room next to the road! There were motocycles running and dogs barking. We needed to change room the day after because of this and the room was better but not optimal. - The bathroom smells a bit, the pressure of the water is bad. The light in the bedroom is poor but this wasn't a problem for me. - They said that there are 3 swimming pools but 2 of them are cold (around 20 degrees) and the hot pool which is 37 degrees is very dirty. The cold water pools are not super clean as well. The tiles in the complex are a bit broken.

    The rooms are with traditional furniture, traditional builded houses. The garden is beautiful with different trees and palms. The food cooked in the hotel restaurant is delicious but a lot more expensive than in the city. They organized for us trips around Siwa which were amazing - 100$ per person for all excursions. Safari in the deset, the Shali fortress, the Fatnas island, the Cleopatra spring, Mountain of the dead, Alexander temple, the salt lakes. We are very pleased with Ahmed - one of the driver for the trips. He speaks English and this was wonderful because we had a lot of questions.

    The restaurant room is ugly and you can't eat outside. Breakfast is the same every day. There is a lack of good products like fresh juice (it's sort of Tang!), real coffee. There is no soul, you're seen as a customer only. Loud music one night. Very expensive because of a general lack of quality. It's a shame because the beautiful garden would deserve better standard.

    Beautiful and peaceful garden and nice big room. The hot spring is nice and relaxing!

    Though the rooms are spacious and relatively clean, they are basic and really dated. WiFi is also practically none existing, so don't expect to be able to so anything of real significant with the WiFi.

    Youssef, and the rest of the team, provided an excellent service. They really seem to enjoy providing an excellent service and making sure their guests feel welcomed and comfortable. They went up and beyond all what was necessary to ensure all things we needed were dealt with, even without us asking. I can say, with almost certainty, that it was one of the best services I've received in all the places I've stayed in Egypt (so far). The hotel is also well located as it takes about 10/15 min to get into town, and not far from the Salt Lakes either. It feels very remote and earthly with a beautiful pool and picturesque surroundings.

    We had such a lovely time during our stay in Siwa thanks to Youssef from the Siwa Shali resort. He really took care of our group of friends, made us feel at home, shared recommendations on where to go, organized an awesome night safari for us. It was truly a memorable experience. If we visit Siwa again, we would definitely stay here again

    It is little farther from the center but thats also why it is so peaceful, quiet and relaxing.

    It is s lovely resort. Rooms were really big, clean and comfortable and food was good. Staff didn't spoke much English but they were very friendly anf helpful. There are 2 pools and hot spring in the hotel and the resort is really big. Would definitely go back there. If you are looking for a good restaurant in Siwa, I strongly recommend Wadi Elmlolok restaurant.

    They clean the pool twice a day, yet it wasn’t enough, I went there august idk if it makes any difference.

    it’s big, if you have free time you can stay at the tent or get into the pool, great landscape, and great service. also, it’s completely safe.
