What is hotel check-in like in Sharm El Sheikh: can you get your room immediately, are overbookings common, and is late dinner available for late arrivals?

TL;DR
Traveler reports suggest daytime arrivals often get a room right away, but popular buildings can be full and guests may be asked to wait a couple of days for a preferred room. Some hotels offer a late dinner around 22:00, and Wi‑Fi setup may not be immediate.

Even returning guests may find no rooms available, especially in the main building or a specific wing. Reception may ask you to wait about 2 days if you want a particular section; in this case it was the main building, left wing.

After check-in, the room itself may be ready as expected, but practical issues like Wi‑Fi can take longer, with setup or access sometimes only sorted out the next day.
