COMFORT INN APARTMENTS-Hurgada,The View

Hotel Description

You know what? I wasn’t expecting much from a 3-star place on Sheraton Road, but COMFORT INN APARTMENTS honestly surprised me. The whole “The View” thing in the name isn’t just marketing fluff – they actually mean it. From apartment B1-C103 (yeah, the address sounds confusing, but it’s basically in the Island View section of The View residence), you get this solid look at the Red Sea that makes your morning coffee taste better somehow.

The location is actually pretty smart if you know Hurghada. Sheraton Road puts you close enough to the tourist strip that you can walk to decent restaurants – there’s this little seafood place about five minutes down that locals go to, not just package tour groups. But here’s the thing: you’re far enough from the main hotel zone that you don’t get woken up by poolside music at 7 AM. The residence itself feels more like where people actually live rather than just pass through, which I mean, gives it this relaxed vibe that’s hard to find in typical resort areas.

What really works about this place is the apartment setup. It’s not just a hotel room with a mini-fridge – you get actual kitchen space, which honestly saves you so much money when you’re staying more than a few days. The furnishing is comfortable without trying too hard to be fancy, and the air conditioning actually keeps up with Egyptian heat (trust me, that’s not always a given). Check-in was straightforward, though the building entrance can be a bit tricky to find the first time – it’s tucked back from the main road. Parking isn’t an issue if you’ve got a rental car, which is more than I can say for a lot of places along the coast. The building itself is quiet, especially during afternoon siesta hours when the whole city seems to slow down. I actually found myself taking naps, which never happens when I travel. The Wi-Fi works well enough for video calls back home, and the water pressure is decent – those little things that make or break a longer stay. Sure, it’s not going to win any design awards, and the lobby is pretty basic, but sometimes you just want a place that works without drama. For the price point and that Red Sea view, it delivers exactly what it promises.
