Based on 2 discussions with 3 participants · Last activity: 4 days ago
TL;DR
From most hotels, a taxi is the easiest way to reach downtown Hurghada (roughly 50-150 EGP depending on distance); if your hotel is in a remote area like Abu Dabbab or Sahl Hasheesh, the airport transfer can take up to 2-2.5 hours.

Airport-to-hotel transfer time varies a lot: after landing in Hurghada, the ride to Three Corners Fayrouz hotel took 2 hours 20 minutes — many hotels marketed as "Hurghada" are actually far south (e.g. the Abu Dabbab area, closer to Marsa Alam).

If you rent a bike from your hotel to explore Sahl Hasheesh, check with reception where you can leave it while you continue on foot — the resort area doesn't have designated bike parking spots.
