My mum and I go away for a week together every year and based upon the reviews I read we chose the Baron Palms at Sharm. I agree with all the comments about the cleanliness of the hotel absolutely fantastic!! BUT bearing in mind the hotel holds 600 guests the pool area and beach are FAR TOO SMALL. I thought it was history but people actually get up at ridiculous times just to put out their towels on the sun loungers. One day we went to the beach around 10.30 and there were no sun loungers at all. The snorkelling is great but again the area is FAR TOO SMALL and very busy and the jetty is made of buoys so difficult to walk on especially for the elderly. The food generally is good always something there suitable to choose from. With all inclusive as described by others only includes local alocohol and this is something to be believed, however the wine is not too bad. It definitely helps to tip the waiters so that you get the service around the pool area and beach!!! I also believe that people pay the towel attendants to put out towels for them first thing in the morning!! (they often dont appear until around mid day/afternoon. All in all it is a pleasant hotel but too crowded and busy for us. We have been to the Hyatt in Taba and although not AI would rather go back there than here as long as you are not looking for nightlife.

We have just returned from the baron palms after a 2 weeks stay with friends,what can I say the hotel is absolutely gorgeous,so clean,they left no stone unturned,we have been to the red sea 4 times now,this time we went with friends who had never been there and didnt really fancy it when they booked it but we persuaded them to try it,now they want to go back next year.
The staff are so friendly,Waleed in the terrace bar has such a good sense of humour he made our evenings with his tricks as there is not a lot going on in the evenings,but that didnt bother us as we had gone for a relaxing holiday and we prefer the daytime anyway.
The snorkelling was amazing,just jump off the jetty and you can see all coulours of fish you just dont want to get out.
The food was good,there was always something we liked,the cakes were really really good,some people say they find the food repetitive but then who has 14 different meals in a 2 week holiday!
All in all we had a brilliant holiday and I would have no problem recommending this hotel to friends or family.
Before we got there we phoned the hotel to arrange transport from the airport to the hotel which was waiting for us even though we had 1hr delay,and when we got to the hotel we were told it was free,which was good,also we got invited to the managers cocktail party where we met the manager who gave us our room until 6pm on the day we were leaving free,our fight was at 10.20pm,the normal charge is about £30 so if you get an invitation make sure you go,some didnt and regretted it.

A 35 year gift from my company, I took my husband, brother and his fiance to the Baron Palms Resort for 13 nights from 17 April. Having never been to Sharm we started with a list of about 20 hotels but Baron Palms met our criteria perfectly. It is a beautiful hotel - but what made it for us was the people that work there. They were so helpful and courteous - we came away having made many new friends. Our rooms at the side of the hotel overlooked the sea - it was always very peaceful. We ate in all the restaurants - our favourite being the Paradise bar (thank you Solymann/Mata/Mahmoud/Samy - all of you) - we also took advantage of the Indian and Italian discounted meals. All were wonderful. The pool staff worked tirelessly and were very entertaining into the bargain (thanks guys). I only have one negative comment and that is you do need to rise early if you want a sunbed with shade poolside. A special mention to Mamdouh on concierge - it was wonderful to meet you. I promise we will be back and hopefully this will be in 2009.

This is a fantastic hotel. We found the staff very friendly and they couldn't do enough for you. Everywhere was immaculate both inside the hotel, around the pool, all of the gardens and the beach, the rooms were spacious and comfortable. The food catered for all tastes and with the option to choose other restaurants you were almost spoilt for choice. This was a truly relaxing experience and we enjoyed this so much will definitely be going back again. Talking to other guests who have stayed elsewhere in Sharm they too would come back to the Baron Palms. Would i recommend this Hotel............Yes without any hesitation...............Book it!! You will not be disappointed
