Delightful break. Spa was wonderful and the location on the edges of the dead sea was remarkable. Great facilities to walk down to the sea, bathe and well serviced with towels, showers and everything. Clean and spacious room with beautiful balcony overlooking the grounds and the dead sea. Good dinner and breakfast. We had a wonderful stay. Wanted to use the bikes but they were not available. Everything else was delightful
Love the location, few meters away from Dead Sea water. Shopping mall is walking distance. Breakfast is amazing plenty’s of variety selection.we really enjoy our stay.
They have the most unbelievable beach in the Dead Sea area . for sure the best one and great accessibility. The food is amazing. Cons they don’t have a store in the hotel and no food after dinner or during the day (besides meals)
Very good spa and rooms, one of the best options around I think. They had problems of cleaning the room but they take care of it once we complained.

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness
The room was old but preserved ok.
Good beach access. SPA was ok (basic) but the food was the worst I have ever seen! Worst ever from all the hotels/hostels I have visited. Didn’t expect that from this chain.
Got surprise welcome freash fruit plate. Great ocean and mountain view from balcony.
Free bikes for hotel guests use
Elevators are too few and tight in size.
Greenwall at entrance.
Staff was always helping and working from on site managers cheffs and maids
The place is right next to the dead sea by a beautiful boardwalk.
The hotel itself had a foul smell on the ground floor, and the room didn't look like anything in the pictures. The food wasn't amazing. and the room wasn't really clean, especially the porch.
Very unplasent stay, do not go their! Many porblems,Sewage leaks at the entrance to the dining room and a stench for the entire weekend, without treatment and disdain from the management, poor food quality.
