Barcelo Tiran Sharm hotel is in a slightly secluded location. The main reception is a good 10 minutes walk from the gated entrance. It is difficult to get to Sharm el Seikh from the hotel due to lack of affordable transport. The only option to go to town is by ridiculously expensive taxis, even if they were booked by the hotel’s own limousine service. Rooms are clean, room service is excellent, the hotel grounds are well maintained, grass and flower beds are beautifully manicured. Good choice of food, but all of the alcoholic drinks are substandard quality, there is room for improvement in this department.
