About Hotels in Sharm El Sheikh

Sharm El Sheikh is one of the Middle East's most spectacular holiday destinations, offering world-class diving and snorkelling at Ras Mohammed National Park, the vibrant nightlife and restaurants of Naama Bay, the ancient monasteries of nearby Sinai, and thrilling quad-biking and camel treks into the desert. Whether you come for the reefs, the sunshine, or the rich Bedouin culture, Sharm delivers extraordinary experiences at every turn.

From sprawling five-star beach resorts lining the shores of Sharks Bay to boutique hotels and lively all-inclusives clustered around Naama Bay, there is accommodation to suit every traveller. The resort is well connected by shuttle buses and taxis, with most areas easily walkable along the seafront corniche.

Where to Stay in Sharm El Sheikh

Naama Bay

The beating heart of Sharm El Sheikh and the ideal base for first-timers. Restaurants, dive centres, beach clubs, and the lively pedestrian promenade are all within easy walking distance.

Sharks Bay

A quieter, upscale stretch north of Naama Bay favoured by luxury travellers. Home to elegant five-star resorts with private beaches and direct access to pristine coral reefs.

Hadaba

A relaxed residential plateau above the sea with a creative, local character. Good independent restaurants, the Old Market nearby, and generally better value than the main resort strip.

Sharm Old Market (Al Hadaba)

The quietest and most authentic corner of the resort, close to local souks and traditional eateries. A peaceful, budget-friendly base with easy taxi access to the beaches and dive sites.

Airport and Transport Guide

Sharm El Sheikh is served by Sharm El Sheikh International Airport (SSH), located approximately 10 kilometres from the resort centre. There is no rail or metro link; instead, licensed white taxis and private transfer vehicles connect the airport to Naama Bay and other resort areas in around 15–20 minutes, with services available around the clock.

Within Sharm El Sheikh, travel is almost entirely by taxi or minibus. Agree a fare before boarding, as meters are rarely used; typical journeys within the resort cost between 50 and 150 Egyptian pounds. Uber operates in Sharm El Sheikh and offers a more transparent pricing alternative to street taxis.

Tips for Finding the Best Hotel Deal in Sharm El Sheikh

  • Book at least 8–10 weeks in advance for stays over Egyptian national holidays or the Sharm El Sheikh International Theatre Festival, when hotel demand rises sharply.
  • The Hadaba and Sharks Bay areas offer noticeably lower nightly rates than central Naama Bay, with regular taxis and minibuses providing easy access to the main strip.
  • Look for hotels that include breakfast — with limited affordable dining outside resorts, a hotel breakfast saves meaningful money and simplifies your morning routine considerably.
  • Check for free cancellation if your dates are flexible, as Sharm El Sheikh hotel demand shifts quickly around Red Sea dive season peaks and Egyptian school holidays.
  • Weekend stays (Thursday and Friday nights, following the Egyptian weekend pattern) tend to attract a domestic-traveller premium; midweek nights often offer better rates at the same properties.
  • Signing up to loyalty programmes with Marriott or Rixos, both of which have a strong Sharm El Sheikh presence, frequently unlocks member rates and complimentary upgrades.

When to Visit Sharm El Sheikh for Lower Prices

Winter (High Season)

December to February is peak season, with European visitors escaping cold weather. Hotels fill quickly and prices are at their highest. Warm days of 20–25°C make it ideal for diving and beach holidays. Book well in advance.

Spring (Value Season)

March to May brings pleasantly warm temperatures before the summer heat builds. Crowds thin after the Easter period, and hotel rates ease accordingly. A comfortable and increasingly affordable time to visit the Red Sea coast.

Summer (Low Season)

June to August sees intense heat regularly exceeding 40°C, deterring many European visitors and pushing hotel prices to their lowest. Mid-range hotels can be found from around £40–£70 per night. The sea remains warm and calm.

Autumn (Value Season)

September to November offers cooling temperatures, excellent diving conditions as marine life remains active, and prices beginning to rise again ahead of winter peak. October in particular strikes a strong balance between comfort, value, and availability.

Popular Areas to Stay in Sharm El Sheikh

Naama Bay

The beating heart of Sharm El Sheikh, with the highest concentration of hotels, restaurants, and dive centres. Lively day and night, it commands premium prices but unbeatable convenience for first-time visitors.

Sharks Bay

A quieter residential enclave north of Naama Bay, popular with repeat visitors and nature lovers. Excellent house reef snorkelling directly off the beach and a more relaxed, local atmosphere than the main strip.

Hadaba

The upscale clifftop district overlooking the sea, home to large all-inclusive resorts and the Old Market below. Quieter than Naama Bay, with sweeping Red Sea views and good road links for business travellers.

Nabq Bay

A rapidly developing coastal zone north of the airport, housing sprawling resort complexes beside a protected mangrove area. Lower land costs translate to competitive rates, making it popular with tour operators and package holidaymakers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Naama Bay is the most central option, putting restaurants, dive shops, and nightlife on your doorstep, though rates reflect that convenience. Hadaba suits luxury seekers after clifftop calm and sea views. Sharks Bay offers a quieter, more authentic feel with strong snorkelling. For business travel, Hadaba's proximity to the convention facilities and major road links makes it the most practical base.
Yes, affordable options are plentiful, particularly in Nabq Bay and the older parts of Hadaba near the Old Market. Expect to pay roughly £25–£55 per night for a decent budget or mid-range room. Prices drop furthest in the summer months of June to August, when intense heat reduces demand, though early booking is still advisable even in low season.
Nabq Bay is the top family choice, with large resort complexes offering dedicated children's pools, kids' clubs, and calm, shallow waters beside the Nabq Protected Area mangroves, which are excellent for gentle exploration. Sharks Bay is similarly peaceful and reef-friendly. Both areas are far removed from the louder bars and late-night venues concentrated along the Naama Bay promenade.
June, July, and August see the lowest rates as daytime temperatures regularly exceed 40 °C and visitor numbers thin out considerably. Midweek stays are typically cheaper than weekend arrivals year-round. It is worth avoiding the Egyptian national holidays such as Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, the Christmas and New Year fortnight, and the annual Sharm El Sheikh International Theatre Festival in October, all of which push prices sharply upward.
Sharm El Sheikh rewards even a four- or five-night stay. The Red Sea reefs offer world-class snorkelling and diving, Naama Bay delivers a lively waterfront dining and nightlife scene, and Ras Mohammed National Park is one of Egypt's finest natural reserves. Direct flights operate from major UK airports including London Gatwick and Manchester, keeping travel times to around five hours.
Free cancellation options are widely available and easy to locate using the cancellation filter in search results. During busy periods such as the Christmas and New Year holidays and Egyptian public holidays in spring, booking with a longer lead time is advisable as refundable inventory sells out quickly. Expect to pay a 10–15% premium over equivalent non-refundable rates for the flexibility.
The Four Seasons Resort Sharm El Sheikh and Rixos Premium Seagate are among the most acclaimed luxury properties, both offering private beaches and extensive spa facilities. Iberotel and Hilton operate reliable mid-range hotels popular with package and independent travellers alike. For a more intimate atmosphere, the boutique-style properties around Hadaba and Old Market offer a quieter alternative to the busier Naama Bay strip.
Sharm El Sheikh International Airport sits roughly 10–15 kilometres from Naama Bay. Taxis are the most practical option and the journey typically takes 15–25 minutes depending on your destination; agree the fare before departing or insist on the meter. Private airport transfer services can be pre-booked through most hotels. Ride-hailing apps such as Uber operate in Sharm El Sheikh and offer a useful alternative with upfront pricing.
