Logos Hotel in Yad Hashmona ★★★

"I stayed at Yad HaShmona Hotel for an academic writing retreat with a group of colleagues. The hotel was very accommodating—they provided us with a classroom space to work in during the day, which was exactly what we needed. Two of us stayed in the basic rooms, while my friend and I booked an upgraded room. I think the upgraded rooms are definitely worth it—the basic rooms are a bit too minimal, while the upgraded ones come with a balcony, a coffee station, and are overall much cozier. The mountain view from the room was lovely and added to the atmosphere. The only downside is that the trash area is located too close to some of the rooms, which slightly takes away from the otherwise serene setting. The hotel grounds include extensive gardens and easy access to the surrounding outdoor area, where one can enjoy very pleasant evening walks. The setting is peaceful and has a unique rural charm. Breakfast was exceptionally good and is provided by Luisa Catering, which I also used for my wedding back in the day—they are truly excellent. Everything is made from local products, and the menu includes precise, well-prepared dishes like homemade quiche and eggs made to order. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay."

Ye'Arim Hotel ★★★

"The service was excellent and the staff was welcoming!!! The food is great and we enjoyed spending time in the hotel gardens"

Cramim by Isrotel Exclusive ★★★★★

"My wife and I came for an overnight stay to celebrate a special anniversary. We were not disappointed. The spa massage which we had scheduled for our arrival was pleasant and we were treated by competent and caring masseuses. The room and the other facilities in the hotel were as one might anticipate at this type of hotel. Both dinner and breakfast were outstanding, probably the best buffet type hotel dinning I have experienced, hands down the best in Israel. I have not hesitation in recommending the Cramim Hotel and Spa. Having said all this, I would not award the hotel five stars for reasons which are easily remedied or issues which should never be found: 1) Cleanliness is an issue, dust can be found in common areas and in the (our) rooms without looking for it. 2) We visited (by chance) on one of the coldest days of the year. The common areas, in particular in the spa, were not warm. One guest said to us in conversation, "I don't get it, this place is a spa, it should be warm and comfortable, it's freezing, that's why I'm wearing this sweatshirt and not one of the (terrycloth) robes provided". The corridor on our floor was absolutely cold, there was no discernible heat, it really was a case of bringing the outdoors, inside. 3) The hotel staff were overall excellent in their own areas, however there was very little expression of esprit de corps which is de rigueur for five star establishments. 4) The appearance of some of the staff was not slovenly, but certainly under par. I can appreciate that the hotel is not of the cord and braided uniform variety, but management needs to pay more attention to the overall feeling they want to impart to guests. 5) The level of English among the staff does not befit a five star establishment, (it was not a problem for me as I am fluent in Hebrew). This is easily improved by providing some lessons which are geared to providing services to guests. 6) A final note. Prior to our visit I wrote to Isrotel's customer service e-mail, mentioning that we were coming to celebrate a special wedding anniversary, and some acknowledgment of this detail would make our stay more pleasurable. They responded that they would forward this to the hotel and that this would be attended to, conditions permitting. The hotel had a fair number of guests, but nothing that should have overtaxed the staff. Again, this is a minor detail, and I do not mention it to register a complaint, rather it is another indication that the General Manager is not affixing his eye sharply enough on the ball. So, four stars instead of five."

Almond Hotel ★★★★

"We spent two days/two nights at the Almond Hotel, a compact boutique hotel about 15 minutes from Jerusalem. No kids and no meat. The room was spacious, the dairy meals were plentiful and tasty, the pool was lovely (shallow but heated), and the all-day lounge was a great plus. The staff - particularly in the dining room - were exceptionally helpful and friendly. We didn't have a private pool or jacuzzi, but that was fine with us. We didn't try the spa, either. We aimed for R & R, and that's exactly what we got. We loved it."

C-Hotel Neve Illan ★★★★

Christmas Hotel - Jerusalem ★★★

"Very good value, convenient location."

Millennium Palestine Ramallah ★★★★★

"good hotel 'behaind the centre"

Jacob Modiin

"Receptionist wasn't helpful at check in. She didn't tell us where our room was and wasn't friendly at all. You're given two espresso pods on arrival as a complimentary gesture. After 4 days I asked if I could get one more. I was told that I would have to purchase it. You pay over $240 a night for a small room and you are expected to purchase a 50 cent coffee pod!!!! Competition is a great thing."

Dar Sitti Aziza ★★★★

"I have just return from an amazing trip to Bethlehem and again stayed with Nabil at Dar Sitti Aziza, the best place to stay in Bethlehem. Nabil shares the history of this amazing guesthouse and every room tells a story. The breakfast is amazing, fresh bread and local falafel service with salads and an assortment of spices, his special eggs (family secret) are amazing and he makes the most delicious homemade jams, a lot of the fruits he grows himself. I cannot recommend this place enough."
