Sierra
Very small territory for its number of visitors. Airport is very close, and planes fly over the hotel's territory.
Savoy
Extremely spacious and modern rooms.
Sofitel
Large territory is isolated and private, but still within walking distance from Naama Bay--allowing pleasant promenades through a flower alley for a dinner in Naama. Moroccan-style interior and territory decoration; territory smothered in flowers. Very courteous staff--compared to many other resorts of this grade in Sharm. Built around late 80s-early 90s, as bathrooms equipment suggests; plastic chairs on most private terraces. Large swimming pool, tennis court pay for electric light only?, gym, horse stables available. 3 private beaches, each with a private piece of a coral reef right near the beach.

The only Five Stars Plus resorts are:
Most hotels in Sharm, particularly in the Na'ama Bay area cater for package tourists. There are mostly 3-6 star all-inclusive hotels and there are very few if any budget options.
Others are quite far from Naama Bay, so you either are tied to their all-included ration, or need to pay for taxi for every dinner in Naama although taxi is inexpensive from most of hotels.
For hotels in Na'ama Bay itself, their territory is frequently crossed by a pedestrian street, so the beach may appear across the street from the hotel building--obviously affecting privacy even when using a hotel's pool.
