Is Hurghada warm enough in early November and which hotels are best then?

Early November is a great time — warm and pleasant; the second half gets noticeably cooler. If the sea itself isn't a priority, a regular beach hotel works fine. If good swimming matters, consider Makadi Bay — it's far from town, but has a nice bay and sea.

For November, book a hotel with a heated pool since coastal wind is almost guaranteed; Jaz Aquamarine or Titanic Beach/Palace work well as they have windbreaks on the beach.

A traveler asked whether early November would be too cold and which is warmer — Sharm El Sheikh or Makadi Bay — while comparing options before the trip.

If you can shift your trip to the first half of November, it's a good time — you catch the tail of summer and the start of Egypt's mild 'winter'. Hotels with heated pools like Jaz Aquamarine or Titanic Beach/Palace are recommended, since the sea gets too cool for comfortable swimming by then.
