TL;DR
Early check-in in Hurghada hotels usually depends on whether a room in your booked category is already available. Some hotels may accept an extra payment for early check-in or an upgrade, but in high season there may be no rooms available before 12:00 even for an extra fee.
If the hotel already has a vacant room in your booked category, you may be checked in early at no extra charge. If not, you usually have to wait until other guests check out around 12:00 and housekeeping prepares the room.
Some hotels may offer paid early check-in, but it is not guaranteed. In practice, many guests still receive their room only around 11:00–12:00 even if they arrive earlier.
Paying extra can sometimes get you a higher room category, but only if upgraded rooms are actually available. In high season in Hurghada, there may be no decent rooms before noon and sometimes no chance to extend your stay either because the hotel is fully booked.
