I like the room and the location.
I didn't like how if you need water you have to pay for it :(.
Its water it should be included in room service.
For such hotel this should not be a big deal for the amount of money I paid for the room.

Amazing service,staff and food
The breakfast staff is excellent...Neveen, Ragab, Mohamed, Ahmed, Laila, all the chefs really everyone of them .as well as the supervisors ...can't remember all the names but outstanding staff and service.
All what this hotel need is to renovate the rooms that are still have carpets and change the windows and curtains in the rooms
Bathrooms as well need renovation in the rooms

Staff was great and breakfast was delicious
Cleanliness was disappointing not matched the value of money taken, room service working only till 5 pm!!
Welcome drink in the lobby and dessert in the room was terrible
price is very high for the services provided specially cleaning
space of room isn't matching to the ones on Expedia, very small room and space isn't as mentioned on Expedia
Valet service representative isn't available all the time specially at night (9- 12 am) and parking entrance is very far away than the hotel you need to take your car to the parking by your self and streets are very narrow, busy and not easy to walk through to reach the parking area
No flowers in the room or air freshener, toilets are not cleaned well and disinfectants used smell so bad, soap, shampoo and shower gel smell aweful and bed sheets are veey clean but detergents aren't smell good or fresh and sheets aren't changed everyday
no Iron or table in the room, no slippers or bathrobes available in the room, dust is very clear on bed wall tips , AC opening and TV remote and floor sides as well.
the best things there is Staff , breakfast and sea view.

How hotels change with change of management

Last week I spent one night at hotel Romance(ex.mercure),I won’t comment on the structure where u have to drive across 2 streets at the back of the hotel to reach the back door of the hotel to park and find urself all of a sudden at the 3rd door climbing stairs with no elevators (thank god i left my luggage at the front before I go to park my car).
All the personnel are efficient and friendly,rooms are clean and tidy with its basic amenities, but the level of the hotel dropped dramatically with a night club and loud music that u can hear every where with a standard of customers that shouldn’t belong to such a place.
Although there are cameras everywhere, this is the type of place that the first thing that comes to your mind when u get into your room is to lock your door and find a piece of furniture to put behind.
To summarize, a fairly good place with a lot of signs of the old chain , good personnel but a lousy atmosphere and degrading outlets and clientele.

Nice location

I stayed at the hotel 5 night. Location is good. Nice staff. The problem started when I arrived to find scaffold around the whole hotel and hard to find entrance and my first thought that the hotel is closed. At day 4 going to my room after breakfast I felt that I was going to die from coughing and not able to breath because they sprayed somthing in the whole floor without saying any thing. I was in my room for almost an hour when I get a call saying that they sprayed chemical for the on going construction and they ask if I need to get another room. It was to late for that. When I was going out of the hotel the same day I was shouted at from a construction person to walk on the left side of the narrow corridor leading to the exit because of falling rocks. They shouldn't accepted my reservation and closed the hotel during renovation.

The mini bar was not working and when we asked for another one they said its job is not to keep things cool in the 1st place!
When we were out of complementary tea and water they said they will not refill it because they are only free on the first day and that if we need any we should buy it from the hotel!
Breakfast buffet is way lessa than average when it comes to variety and quality. This should be a 3 star hotel.
Also there was ongoing construction work with drills and hammers. They should communicate this to the guests in advance as it made my stay very uncomfortable.

16 night stay at the Romance

Had a good stay at the Romance Alexandria
The rooms were a little small but the view was fantastic, everything was central so you could easily get around in a taxi. Breakfast was included which was very good.
The only downside for us that they didn't provide you with complimentary bottled water throughout your stay and tea and coffee which I thought was strange but other than that it was clean and comfortable with good housekeeping every day.
Wouldn't hesitate to book this hotel again on my next visit to Alexandria.

Good location, nice room but be careful.

The hotel is in good location with friendly staff but while leaving the hotel I was asked to pay more money as the US dollar rate against the Egyptian pound had changed. They then said it's ok as I have already paid in dollars and would've paid the difference if I paid in EGP. This is the most ridiculous thing I encountered. Also there was a strong acetone smell in level 9 that appeared from time to time and made me dizzy. I informed the receipt on but didn't hear anything back. Make sure you have you reservation with you and keep the receipts.

Wonderful hotel and staff!

I picked this hotel through Expedia, simply based on the reviews. I was extremely happy with my choice! The hotel is a beautiful property, the rooms are plush, comfortable, beautifully decorated, spotless, and have all of the amenities. There was even a complimentary plate of fresh fruit and two bottles of water, which was a very nice touch.

The staff was super, especially Ahmed and Aya at the front desk. The restaurant was delightful and the staff was very accomodating. The fact that the restaurant is open 24 hours is wonderful.

Everyone, from housekeeping to the security staff, was top-notch. And, the front desk was always there to answer questions and to give advice. The price was quite reasonable, which was as added bonus. I highly recommend this hotel!

Clealiness problem

The room was not clean whatsoever.. The lamp next to the bed had a chewing gum stuck to it( very disgusting). We took a picture of it because we were intending to send a complaint.. Also, the runner on the bed had a lot of stains as if it was not ever washed.. The sofa was stained too. The best thing about this hotel was the friendly service we received from the guy preparing the omelettes during breakfast time. I think this review requires your consideration.
