Default Hugarda Advise Please

After diving in Sharm for the past 3 years I'm going to try 2 weeks in
Hugarda. I've never been before but was thinking of going to the Hilton
Plaza hotel.

Does anyone know how near the Hilton is to the main town of Hugarda? Is
Hugarda like Naama Bay i.e.all the shops and bars in the same area or is it
more spread out.

Also can anyone recomend any diving centres to use or avoid.

Hilton Plaza is a bit of trek from anywhere, depends who you are diving
with. Hilton Resort (there are two Hiltons) is where emperor divers are
based. Decide on a dive centre and then stay at the hotel where they
are. Hurghada is massively drawn out over a huge stretch of coastline
with various areas to go out in - not like Sharm where there is Naama
Bay - you have the main "old" town, Sekalla where you have Papas Beach
Bar, various other bars and restaurants and then lots in between. Best
advice would be to choose a good dive centre and stay near it - there
are a million cheap mini buses and taxis to get you where you want to
be of an evening if you are not staying there already
