Palm Inn City Hotel

Palm Inn City Hotel Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Palm Inn City Hotel, you immediately get that comfortable, no-nonsense vibe that makes you think “okay, this works.” It’s a three-star place that doesn’t try to be something it’s not — and honestly, that’s refreshing in a destination like Hurghada where some hotels can feel a bit over the top. The lobby has this clean, straightforward design that tells you the owners actually care about keeping things nice without breaking the bank.

Location & Getting Around

You’re right in El Dahar, which is the older part of Hurghada, and I mean that in the best way possible. Abdel-Moneim Riad Square is literally right there, so you’ve got this authentic Egyptian neighborhood feel without being stuck in the middle of nowhere. The thing about this area is that you can actually walk to local shops and cafes where real people hang out — not just tourist traps. Plus, there’s free parking if you’re brave enough to rent a car and explore the Red Sea coast on your own terms.

The Room Experience

The room I stayed in was exactly what you’d expect from a solid three-star — clean, comfortable bed, decent air conditioning (which you’ll definitely need), and a bathroom that actually works properly. Nothing fancy, but everything functions the way it should. The best part? It was quiet enough to get good sleep, which isn’t always guaranteed in busy Egyptian cities. You know what I appreciated most? The little touches that show they pay attention — fresh towels that actually smell clean and a TV with some English channels for those lazy afternoon moments.

Breakfast & Dining

Now here’s where they really surprised me — the breakfast spread is genuinely impressive for a place at this price point. We’re talking continental, vegetarian, halal, gluten-free, kosher, and American options all laid out buffet-style. I mean, they’ve clearly thought about accommodating different dietary needs, which isn’t something you always see. The local Egyptian breakfast items were actually the highlight for me — fresh bread, local cheeses, and some really good coffee. There’s no fancy restaurant on-site, but honestly, you’re in Hurghada — step outside and you’ll find amazing seafood places within walking distance.

Why Guests Love It

Here’s the thing that really stands out — couples seem to absolutely love this place, and after staying there, I get why. It’s got that sweet spot of being affordable without feeling cheap, comfortable without being pretentious. The staff genuinely seems to care about making sure you have what you need, and the location gives you that authentic Egyptian experience while still being accessible to all the Red Sea activities you probably came to Hurghada for. It’s the kind of place where you can base yourself for diving trips or exploring the coast, then come back to a clean, comfortable space that doesn’t eat up your entire travel budget.

Hotel in Hurghada reservations spike during Eid celebrations, so savvy travelers secure Red Sea retreats months ahead.
