Finally, I visited my favorite hotel on the Dead Sea again! Yes, I have a crush on him. But at the same time, my attitude towards the Isrotel Dead Sea hotel is rational. I have something to compare - I know all the hotels on the Dead Sea. In some I spent 1-2-3 nights, in others I went to see what and how ...
The main plus of this hotel is the almost complete absence of minuses. If the hotel's beach was right at the exit, then the Isrotel Dead Sea would be perfect! But, unfortunately, this is the specificity of the Ein Bokek resort area - only 6 hotels have their own beach not across the road. At the same time, it is important to note that this road is not very busy - only buses and cars of those who come to hotels or leave pass through it. And the route connecting Eilat with Jerusalem, Tel Aviv and other cities passes "behind" all the hotels.
In addition, an open car constantly runs, which brings hotel guests to the entrance to the beach - this is for those who do not want to go down / up for 2-3 minutes ...


The hotel lobby is not as pompous as Le Meridien, but everything is solid and dignified… It is the same in the rooms and in common areas. Families with children are much smaller than in LeMeridien and Lenardo Club. However, to guarantee complete peace and quiet, I would recommend booking rooms on MOAB floors (last 2 floors). The rooms are better decorated, corridors updated, etc. In addition, those living on the floors of the MOAB have the right to visit the Moab Lounge throughout the day, which is a worthy alternative to lunch! But keep in mind that there are no suites on these floors, all rooms have one large bed and a maximum of 2 people. in the room.

Also, all tourists are provided with a free tour to Tel Aviv, which is sponsored by the Diamond Exchange in Ramat Gan (a suburb of Tel Aviv).
Some tour operators are trying to "stuff" their price and write on their websites what they give as a gift, but this is a lie. The same lie as the statement of some tour operators who are trying to "mow down" under the Israeli companies and offer air tickets "at domestic, Israeli prices. These fares for flights to Israel are not available to Russian tour operators. ” Someone, I believe, believes them, thinking that "their" in Israel will not be deceived. About how “they won’t be deceived” is well shown in the film “Brother” -2 (there, although it happens in America, but with our former ones ... ). Of course, not everyone who works with tourists from Russia is so bad. Sometimes decent people come across.
If you order accommodation from a tour operator from the countries of the former USSR (at least from Russian, Ukrainian and Belarusian), then the room price will include breakfast + dinner, a free transfer from the airport and back to the airport, a promotion for stays of 7 nights or more (not always, but most of the year there is a special offer of 7 nights for the price of 6 ... ).



And, in conclusion, a few words for those who consider our tour operator in Israel "Classic Travel" interested in promoting this hotel. So, both me and my colleagues from the St. Petersburg and Moscow offices of Classic Travel do not care what hotels to sell. But only in terms of finances. Money is important for us, but not the main thing - the main thing is that the tourist returns from Israel satisfied! Therefore, we always recommend to tourists only those hotels for which we will not be ashamed later. Of course, even we, who specialize in Israel and Jordan, have lapses. Rarely, but there are.
But I think this is normal - only those who do nothing do not make mistakes!
