Want to hear what other people have had to say about the Sofitel Taba Heights? Here's a selection of past customer comments:
"The staff at the hotel were exceptional and it was always a shock to see somebody forget to smile - whereas in UK it's the reverse! Although I came with my partner, I would feel good as a single traveller here as it is so welcoming." - J Pierce-Hazell Kent
"Sofitel Taba Heights is an excellent hotel. The staff are superb with the food being absolutely wonderful, some of the best I have ever tasted. Would totally recommend it and definitely going to return. Everybody we met in the hotel (guests from UK) all agreed with these comments and will be confirming these views on websites which advise on trips abroad!"
- S Triggle, Bristol
"We were delighted with the quality of accommodation & service provided by the staff. Thank you for a superb week." - DL & TS, Aberdeenshire
"Enjoyed our stay in Egypt. This is the first time we have used a hotel and the Sofitel was a very good experience. The staff were always very polite, friendly and willing to please. Longwood reps were all very pleasant and helpful, they made our excursions a very positive and enjoyable experience." - G Round, Essex
"Sofitel is an excellent hotel – staff/service very good. Very enjoyable holiday. Would come back." - Mr & Mrs Jones, Leicestershire
"We had a fantastic holiday. We were hoping it would be good as it was better. The room was excellent as was the hotel in general. We were all inclusive. In the past we have been disappointed with drinks (long queues & small plastic cups) & food (prior choice & quality). The Sofitel was excellent.
The hotel was excellent, but the trips were even better – Moses Mountain / Burning Bush, Pyramids & Cairo / Petra / Jerusalem. Snorkelling was superb." - Mr Vickers, Rugby
"Excellent holiday. We wanted to chill out and relax and this holiday has been perfect for us." - Mr & Mrs Hellart
"Very enjoyable holiday. Egyptian people were wonderful. Lots to see and do." - N Aroran, Leicestershire
