Reviews and Ratings
I found this hotel to have a mixed experience. The rooms offer a mountain view but come with a tired decoration and varying quality. The service had its ups and downs with a contrast between staff understanding my request and the unpleasant manner of some employees. The location is convenient within walking distance from the city center, but the interior needs an update in various areas. On the bright side, the hotel is right in the center of Tzfat. Unfortunately, the dining options were limited to fried fish. Despite some drawbacks, the facilities were decent.
The hotel had varying quality rooms with nice views and a huge balcony. The service provided had mixed experiences with an unpleasant manner initially but improved by the next day. The location was convenient for exploring the area on the Galilee mountains and walking around Safed center easily. The dining experience included fresh pastries. Overall, the facilities were suited for a comfortable stay.
The hotel has a great location right in the center of Tzfat, very close to main attractions at Safed Old City. The rooms vary in quality, some with a huge balcony but with tired decoration. The service provided by the manager had an unpleasant manner, though it improved with the next day manager. The hotel is within walking distance from the city center and offers easy access to 2 restaurants in the area. The dining experience offers organic pulled pork. On the inside, improvements like new paint are needed, but the hotel is conveniently located.
