TL;DR
Hotel kitchens usually close around 10-11pm, but the lobby bar often has snacks until midnight; for a real meal, grab something from a supermarket (Spinneys, Alfa Market) on the way or order delivery in Naama Bay/Soho Square.
If dinner service is already over, ask reception for a to-go lunch box. At the airport, Burger King meal sets start from 550 EGP, and Soho Square has no cheap dining options. Alternatively, order food delivery to the hotel via apps like Bringit or McDonald's.
One traveler reports that checking into the Conti hotel well after midnight (even past 1am) still got them sent straight to the staff dining hall, which had cold cuts, cheese, vegetables and rolls — they weren't left hungry.
If hotel rules technically don't cover a late dinner (meals only counted from check-in if you arrived before lunchtime), try negotiating at reception — a small gift like chocolate plus a couple of dollars as a thank-you often persuades staff to let you eat at the dining hall anyway.
If you check in around 1am, don't count on the hotel restaurant being open — the kitchen is closed, though reception can sometimes provide a sandwich, or you just wait for breakfast.
Farsha Lounge Cafe, known for cliffside cushions and sunset views, fills up fast — arrive by 3-4pm, since by 5pm good spots are usually taken. Menu is mostly pizza, snacks and drinks rather than a full dinner.
Many large all-inclusive resorts keep a 24-hour snack bar by the pool or in the lobby (pizza, sandwiches, fries) — worth checking this when booking if you expect a late transfer.
If your flight lands late (around 10pm) and the transfer takes another couple of hours, it's smart to bring instant noodles or snacks — supermarkets like Spinneys and Alfa Market in Naama Bay stay open late and are good for stocking up in advance.
For a proper late dinner, head to Soho Square or the Old Market area — restaurants there usually stay open until midnight, unlike most hotel kitchens.
