    A lovely place, right next to the cable car, simple but clean, with sufficient breakfast, and very nice facilities: a big swimming pool, a sports camp and a playground for kids.

    The rooms were very clean, and had everything we needed, very friendly and accommodating staff, and most importantly (for us) - it was very quiet, even though there was a school trip, and dozens of teenagers everywhere.

    We wanted to be near the park and could not have been any closer. We were able to walk to the snake path from the hotel. The accommodation was spacious, offered us separate rooms, and a good size bathroom. Breakfast was included.

    The location is very convenient for visiting Masada, and the staff suggested a late check out as it was Shabbat and I had to wait for evening for a bus after visiting the site. Coming back to a shower and the pool after a very hot morning on top...

The fine print

Need-to-know information for guests at this property

Based on local tax laws, guests with a tourist visa to Israel are exempted from paying VAT for their reservation. Israeli citizens and residents ("non tourists" as defined in the VAT law) must pay VAT. This tax is automatically calculated in the total cost of the reservation for domestic customers. For guests booking from outside of Israel, the tax is not included in the total price.

Please note that on Saturdays and the final day of Jewish holidays, check-in is after 19:00.
