How to extend a tourist visa in Hurghada, Egypt while staying at a hotel?

TL;DR
A free 2‑month visa extension can be arranged through your hotel, but for a longer stay you need to visit the local immigration (migration) office with your passport and hotel confirmation; also extend your SIM card registration at a phone shop to legally stay up to 90 days instead of 30.

To extend your visa beyond 2 months, visit the local immigration/migration office (sometimes called the 'Guazet') to process the extension there. Afterward, stop by a phone shop to extend your SIM card registration — this raises your allowed stay from 30 to 90 days.

Another traveler who has been at a hotel for 2 months wants to extend both the stay and the visa — asking what documents and steps are required (passport, hotel booking confirmation).
