All inclusive Hotel, beach/pool towels

Hi,
We are going to egypt (hurghada, titanic beach spa hotel) next week for 2 weeks, and out package is AI, and includes beach towels each day, BUT I am wondering how good these towels are? Are they big-ie do they cover the sunbed. To be honest hotel has aquapark, pools and private beach, so will prob not be sunbathing elsewhere, so would prefer not to have to bring our own towels if the ones there are ok (leaves more room in cases for books :beer: and less washing to do when we come home :j

    Goodness me, there was me thinking that a beach towel is a beach towel is a beach towel :confused:

    If you are that concerned that the hotel's beach towels may not meet your requirements perhaps you should take your own along anyway ;)

    I know what the OP means.

    Are they big, reasonably soft & clean.

    In my experience YES.

    It depends on the hotel.

    Went to Mexico a couple of years back and we had huge big fluffy towels that were lovely. They were nicer than my normal towels at home :o

    Just been to Turkey and the towels were bath towel size, thin and tatty. We didn't know they had a towel service and had taken our own, so we just used ours.

    Have a look on tripadvisor.com etc., and see if you can find towel comments in the reviews!
    Here I go again on my own....

    They were big enough to cover the loungers at the 2 hotels I've been to in Egypt but I guess it varies on what the resort chooses?

  • Hi I have stayed in loads of hotels in Egypt including the sis hotel Titanic Aquapark and the towels are bath size and adequate and are big enough for the sunbeds. Hope this helps.
