Tel Aviv hotels near Alma Beach

Pros: Everything was waaaay beyond our expectations. The care the owners had taken for their restoration, without sacrificing comfort to their guests to this exceptional property was heartwarming. The staff was professional & went out of their way to be helpful and kind.

Pros: The best location for walking. The restaurant of the hotel is very good, tasty breakfasts. Very friendly and polite staff, especially porters.

Cons: A few days before our arrival we got an e-mail from the Guest relations ream of the hotel. They asked about arrival time, and if we will celebrate any special occasion during our stay. I answered that we will celebrate our anniversary, that's why we need a quite room with good view. But when we arrived, they gave us a room on ground floor of the next building with a view to another building that was definitely not good. Also they did not mention our anniversary during the stay. What was a point to ask about it then? The gym is too small and has only one treadmill.

Pros: The breakfast was excellent and we dined for evening dinner one night and the food was excellent there too. The hotel was spotlessly clean and the staff were efficient.

Cons: The rooms are very very small. I upgraded before I arrived to a terrace room but that to was still small. It is expensive but to be fair to the hotel, Israel is an expensive place.

Pros: Great location , excellent facilities Amazing building Very good service And very good breakfast

Pros: After staying in some expensive duds on this trip to Israel, The Drisco was a such a relief! Finally, there were comfortable pillows and mattress, a modern and stylish decor, excellent service, excellent restaurant, excellent bathroom, excellent hair dryer with which you can actually blow dry and style your hair.

Cons: Jaffa neighborhood, they tell us, is cleaning up, but you wouldn’t know it. The street is quiet, but the surrounding buildings are an eye sore. Nearby unattractive buildings are covered in graffiti and soot. It’s not specific to this street, but the whole of the area. It is a safe neighborhood, and there are complicated reasons for abandoned or unkempt buildings. Nevertheless, I’d stay in this hotel if I travel to Tel Aviv. Once inside, you feel like you’re on cloud nine.

Pros: room was clean.

Cons: Breakfast food was not such a high quality.

Pros: Location is ideal and has own parking lot. The rooms have a really nice sea view and are comfortable Service from all the staff was very good Check in en service by Ralph were excellent. He gave us very good tips, upgrade, fast check in answered all our questions and was very helpfull. Breakfast is a huge buffet for all types of religion and or diet wishes. There is a kids club and gym. Jaffa, Nev Zsedek, beach all is accesable by foot There are many hotels but Dan Panorama gives good value, service and has perfect location.

Cons: None

Pros: Location, breakfast, front desk very nice and helpful

Cons: Could use more towels

Cons: The temperature in the room. Was a bit warm

Pros: The location was fine.

Cons: The hotel needs to be updated. Bathrooms are not comfortable. The lighting is terrible. The staff is not refund.

Pros: Breakfast and bar

Cons: Poor temperature control

Pros: Homely atmosphere

Pros: Comfortable bed. Good breakfast. Espresso machine in the room.

Cons: Small flyes in the bathroom. Nothing in the minibar. Waste of plastic during breakfast.

Pros: Breakfast, the room was nice

Cons: Daily cleaning of the room was done extremely poorly. They just made the bed and quick fix of the bathroom but the floor was always dirty and they left it messy. We asked for a breakfast box as our flight was very early in the morning and they gave us some raw veggies and sauces! Awful.

Pros: Room looks great! Grafity in the stairways is amazing!!!! Good breakfast with tasty coffee:)

Cons: Down town Tel Aviv, a bit away from the action.

Pros: We were welcome by a very friendly young lady at the reception, I'm sorry that I don't remember her name! As it was a Saturday morning we knew that we will check in only at 18, but we had the nice surprise to get our room at 12, when we returned to hotel after a short walk in the city. This was much appreciated as it was raining really hard and we were tired after travelling. The room was nice and quite big, but the bed was incredibly comfortable. We had a very good sleep in that bed! We also enjoyed the breakfast that was quite vary, you had options to select from and my partner said that the coffee is one of the best he had. We used also the sauna and the gym and at the time we were using those we were the only ones there, so no crowd. I loved the rooftop view! At first I thought that the location of the hotel is very unfortunate, the neighborhood seems sad and shady, the metro site construction is near by and it was not what I have expected from TelAviv, but then exploring the area I got to the conclusion that the location is quite good, as it is close to many attraction points: Rotschild blv, Sarona Market, TLV Mall, Dizengoff Mall, TelAviv Art Museum, Arizeli Center, Neve Tzedek and Florentin. They also offer free taxi rides to Jaffa and to the beach and we enjoyed those, but also those points are at a walk-able distance from the hotel.

Pros: Good location

Cons: Noisy because of the traffic

Pros: Really really good breakfast, big rooms, nice bar with a great vibe, friendly staff, facilities were great as well

Pros: The breakfast was exceptional and varied, every day bringing a new breakfast menu. Be advised that if you are a fan of charcuterie, you won't have a lot of choices.

Cons: The room I stayed in, a club room, was quite old and seemed like it requires some refurbishment. The check-in time is also quite late.

Pros: The hotel is really nice and the guy at the reception, Tal, was helpful and amazing! Highly recommended!

Pros: I liked the breakfast but thought it was overpriced. The location was wonderful. Room service was great.

Cons: I had requested two rooms with a double and a twin. I was told that they had twin beds and not rollaways. I arrived to find one room with a rollaway with a bad mattress and one room with a couch pullout bed that was broken. It was replaced with another bad rollaway. Considering the room rates the sleeping accommodations were poor. The breakfast was overpriced. There were some foul odors in the hallways. On final checkout I was charged more than the booking.com rate. On inspection I discovered that the hotel charged me the 17% VAT tax which is supposed to be for Israeli citizens only. Luckily I found the overcharge before I paid and left the hotel.

Pros: Location, staff, breakfast

Cons: Nothing not to like.

Pros: Helpfull staff. We had ac problem which was promptly fixed. Staff very helpful.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The location by the see side, the easy going staff very ready to help (posting a letter, organising taxi)

Cons: 45min wait for a room service dinner

Pros: We did not purchase the breakfast buffet with our room but we ended up eating at the buffet as it was the most convenient. The breakfast buffet was excellent food and very ample. Our room was medium size but very comfortable and clean. We had a terrace with a beach view to the left and a city view to the right--we loved it!

Cons: I did not like the pressure at check-in to upgrade the room and/or purchase more VIP services. We were visiting to sight see and see family, so we had no time to use spa services etc. I think the pressure to upgrade at check-in is not classy. We did eat one dinner at the hotel, as we were weary from a day of touring. Unfortunately, we found the dinning experience to be fairly poor. The waitstaff was pleasant but not organized, professional nor attentive--especially considering the prices. The food, alas, was not nearly of the quality of the food we enjoyed at breakfast. My fish was dried out and my husband's steak was fatty. Both dishes were not flavorful. We left over much of our dinners.

Pros: The hotel is brand new, location is amazing, front desk staff is friendly. Our room was spacious and had a very nice view both of the city and the sea. Food was really good but when it gets busy in the morning you have to wait for your coffee for good 15 minutes as you can only order it from the waiters.

Cons: We spent a night before our wedding in the hotel and needed to have express dry cleaning, we were told that it would be ready next day at 2pm but when we came to give the clothes we were told that it won't be ready until 4 which is too late as we had to leave the hotel around 3 already. We have asked for iron as well and the one given did not work and ironing board was broken. We were offered to have our clothes ironed and we had to pay for it, even though we would expect to have it as a complimentary service as the provided facilities did not work and we were misinformed regarding dry cleaning service as well. Not so many guests usually need these kind of things when they stay in the hotel but the problems we faced using this services were quite an issue in our situation

Cons: I had the worst experience in my whole life at this hotel! I have been humiliated and treated very bad by the staff members. After a late night out, I came with my boyfriend back to the hotel and the people at the reception stopped us and didn t let us go through. The room was booked on my name, and they just assummed it’s my boyfriend’s room, then called me a prostitute. They didn’t even bother to ask what is the room number, or my name, they just stopped me and told me to wait for their manager. Some other hotel guests were in the lobby and could listen how they told me I am a prostitute even though the booking was on my name, and was paid with my company card! The way they treat their clients is horrible and not normal. Their behaviour was racist and really offensive. On top of all that, at the check out they overcharged me around 200€ , saying that the currency exchange is different every day. So I was supposed to pay 1000€ but I ended up paying 1200€. What a ripoff! I am sure many of you can relate to my story.

Pros: Excellent location, close to Camel market, Jaffa and the new area Neve Tzedek. Spectacular seafront, perfect to enjoy walking or running.

Pros: Big rooms, good big bed. Friendly stuff.

Cons: The local art exhibiton idea is nice but some of the art presented is really not that great ( understatement ) and downgraded the whole experience. They should have a better critiria for local art. High prices for art pieces doesn't make the art better.

Pros: Location was perfect

Cons: Dispite that fact this hotel is called Diaghilev, there is nothing about Diaghilev except one sentence in their menu. do not expect any interesting style or personalization. Perhaps the owners think that they can double the price for "Diaghilev LOFT" in the name of the hotel. Ordinary Israeli hotel with poor quality renovation and cheap style, expecially for that price. Rooms look inside like old tel aviv apartment, ragged tiles, dirty walls, abnormally soft crushed bed. It was impossible to use hot water in the bathroom because of the thin shower faucet that burned my hands. there was shower gel and shampoo in the room, but there was no hand soap The balcony was without a roof or any other tent. It was raining and the tile on the balcony was wet and my husband slipped. We rented one of the expensive rooms, there was not even a coffee maker in the room, and instant coffee was the cheapest in Israel, it was not even coffee, but dust. I would be ashamed to leave it to my guests. Also we ordered a room with breakfast. Don't do this mistake. I waited for my breakfast for 1 hour. I ordered eggs with waffles. At first they just brought me eggs. Then just waffles. Then, in the end, the staff coped with this simple task and brought me breakfast exactly one hour after it started. The quality of the breakfast was low. I felt sorry for the people around, because for the same price you could get an excellent breakfast 10 meters from the hotel This hotel is not worth the money, it was our wedding anniversary and now I really regret that I chose this hotel.

Pros: Location

Cons: The look is outdated

Pros: Staff were extremely helpful, friendly and responsive. Decor was funky, fun, and artsy.

Cons: Our room was a bit in need of a makeover. Everything worked and it was in good condition but it was a little worn. Other rooms sound like they were better though.

Pros: Friendliness of staff

Pros: Breakfast and friendly staff. Location is great. Just a few metres away of the Rothschild Blvd. Great locations also means lot's of cars parking in that street. Nice fridge. Friendly cats outside the hotel, if you chose to go here, feed them.

Cons: Rooms are not up to what is expected at this price range. There is a strange smell and the Bathroom look like a DIY renovation project of a building originally built in the 1950s. Kitchen corner looks and feels like it was a give away from a fleemarket.

Pros: Not then ample room in the suite

Cons: clthes storage outside of bedroom

Pros: Great location (right off Rotchild boulevard), very spacious (we thought its a room - but it was a spacious studio), lovely design, nice breakfast, and overall very good price-quality ratio. We were really happy with this choice and would certainly use it again when in Tel Aviv.

Cons: The breakfast design was strange - it was not clear what's part of the hotel's breakfast and what isn't, and it wasn't well explained. In addition, the staff was not friendly at all, which surprised us because the rest of the hotel's staff were really nice and helpful. The food itself was great, but the process and client experience around it can be significantly improved.

Pros: The staff were very friendly and check-in/out was very easy. The hotel and rooms are very unique and cool. The hotel is based around being art-friendly, and local artists have installations in the hotel lobby, hallways, and rooms. The roof has an amazing garden and is a great place to hang out. We had a great room with a little kitchenette and balcony overlooking a very cute, quiet courtyard. The bathroom was luxurious; it had a nice sized tub (with shower), dead sea salts, and robes. The hotel had parking on site for a very reasonable rate (55 shekels for us). There's a great looking cafe on the premises, though we did not get a chance to try it.

Cons: The hotel is not in central, downtown Tel Aviv, but it is a walk-able distance (2 km or less, I think). For us, we had to walk about 20 minutes to get downtown. The positive part about the location is that it's in a quiet neighborhood.

Pros: It’s very comfortable, conveniently located and very close to the sea. Breakfast was excellent. The staff at the reception was very helpful. I had two reservations: one - direct, and another one - via booking (smaller room). They organized it all, and I did not have to change the room, nor to pay extra. Many thanks.

Cons: I would prefer to be able to get heating on.

Pros: The place is quite near the beach and many restaurants. It's very convenient to go to other places.

Pros: Location is excellent: near the beach and restaurants and shopping. We had room on 16thfloor. With a view of city skyline

Cons: Free coffee in lobby would have been awesome

Pros: Staff was friendly / helpful. Breakfast was included and had a great variety of foods. Room had reasonable amount of space and plenty of storage areas. Location is very hard to beat: 2 blocks to beach; close to restaurants on Ben Yehuda and Bograshov; close to Carmel Market.

Cons: Due to large groups, lobby was often crowded, as was dining area at breakfast. However, crowds never caused long delay for us. Hotel did not have printers available for printing airline boarding passes. Front desk staff offered me to e-mail boarding passed for them to print (but my airline did not include that option). Trash can in bathroom had not been emptied, and bathroom had faint "off" odor.

Pros: Comfortable room, attentive staff and good service
