A British couple have described how they nearly lost their lives after staying in an Egyptian hotel room with a 'horrendous' smell
Michelle Cohen and husband Arnold, from Liverpool, started vomiting within minutes of each other in the early hours in their room at the luxury Renaissance Sharm El Sheikh Golden View Beach Resort
After they were rushed to hospital, Egyptian doctors told the couple's daughter - who was also staying in the hotel along with her husband and ten-month old baby - that Mrs Cohen may not survive
Marriott International, which manages the hotel, told MailOnline they were unable to find a link between the Cohens' sickness and conditions at the hotel after a probe
The couple decided to reveal their 2015 ordeal after John and Susan Cooper, from Burnley, Lancashire, died suddenly just hours apart having stayed at the Steigenberger Aqua Magic hotel in Hughada
The Coopers' daughter, Kelly Ormerod, reported a 'funny smell' in the hotel room before they died - though officials insist they died of natural causes
Mr and Mrs Cohen booked two rooms at the resort, paying more than £1,000 for each one
But when they arrived, they said their sea view room had a 'horrendous' smell. RELATED ARTICLES Previous 1 2 Next Two guests who were evacuated from Egyptian hotel where

Share this article Share Mrs Cohen said: 'It is hard to explain, it was like a cross between gas, onions and ammonia - it was a toxic smell
The next room where my daughter was in was beautiful'.She said they made repeated attempts to change rooms, but were told none were available for them while staff told them to open the doors and windows to reduce the odour
On the eighth night, they went to bed at about 10pm after dinner - but woke at 4.15am and within minutes of each other were violent sick
'Eventually, I said we needed to call the hotel doctor. He gave us a tablet and put us on a drip and said we were going to be ok in a couple of hours
'But I was becoming more and more weak through sepsis and I could not even reach for the phone
'She added: 'My husband was throwing up and we did not know it, but he had had a heart attack
'In the morning, their daughter, Lisa O'Connor, walked in and 'screamed' when she found Mrs Cohen in a coma
'When the doctor came back in with a couple of members of staff, he said we needed two ambulances immediately because this lady is critically ill'
'At hospital they told my daughter I was not going to survive.'Mrs Cohen's sister and the couple's other children flew over to be with her after being told of their condition
She said she had suffered heart failure, liver failure and sepsis while her husband had suffered a heart-attack
The couple have so far been unsuccessful in their attempt to sue Marriott, which manages the hotel
But they are adamant the foul smelling room was to blame while a Harley Street doctor in Britain has told them they suffered acute gastroenteritis
The couple said their experience was 'uncannily like the Coopers'. Mr Cooper, a 69-year-old building firm boss, died in his hotel room earlier this month
Mrs Cooper, 64, passed away in hospital several hours later. The Coopers' daughter, Kelly, said there had been a bad smell in the hotel room before they became critically ill
Mrs Cohen told MailOnline: 'Something needs to be done, this was not from food this is much more serious, we were totally fine a few hours before just like Kelly's mum and dad
'A spokesman from Marriott International told MailOnline in a statement: 'We take the wellbeing of our guests very seriously and were deeply concerned when we learned of Mr and Mrs Cohen's health challenges in June 2015
'An investigation was conducted into whether there were conditions at the hotel that would have caused the Cohens' adverse health conditions
'We were not able to identify any such connections from the review. It has been more than three years since the Cohens' unfortunate experience
'We understand, however, that recent news reports relating to a different hotel have caused the Cohens to become concerned about their own experiences in 2015
'We are arranging for the appropriate Company representatives to respond to any questions that the Cohens may have and consider any information that they may wish to share
