“Delighted with the David Intercontinental”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

This was our first stay at the David Intercontinental. We have stayed many times at the Hilton and once at the Sheraton and we were delighted with every aspect of our stay. The service was excellent, the room (upgraded to a 2 room suite) quite nice (it does need a bit of updating, but the bed was comfortable and storage space generous), the lobby area is far nicer than the Hilton, the concierges were most accommodating, the food service and variety first rate, the Executive Lounge very nice,and the location for us was vastly preferable to that of the Hilton.
From now on, this is where we stay in Tel Aviv.

“Nice location, Clean, Modern Hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Pleasant place for a stay in Tel Aviv. The room was clean and comfortable. Furnishing are showing some wear and tear, but overall acceptable. I think some redecorating is in order here. Had a wonderful view of the sea and a mosque (who knew?). Breakfast was amazing...even on Shabbat when the offerings were more limited.

I found the staff - especially in the bar and dining room - to be a little cool. But that could easily be a cultural difference.

Only negative: $22.00 a day for internet. Come on guys...this should be a basic service included in the price of the room. Yes, there's a 1 hour free connection if you drink at the bar, but that is hardly conducive to work.

Room Tip: Ask for a room over looking the beach

“Hunter”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2012

I had an extend stay in the David hotel. A one month stay. The room was always clean, staff very courteous and attentive. As it was along stay I had a fridge, Microwave and DVD player put in the room, they done this Free Of Charge, Just had to ask. Breakfast buffet is excellent. Only point of concern was the WiFi. Signal was spotty and strength low. But did not detract from the all-round stay being excellent.

Room Tip: Request a upper floor not over the dining area, This area can get noisy during large conferences.

“Good luxury hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2012

Stayed at the Tel Aviv David Intercontinental on a business trip and spent 3 nights. The hotel is a well kept place with friendly service.

Room: Good size with all the ameneties you'd expect from that type of hotel. Not up to the latest style in furniture but pretty nice and not worn out. Wiew (towards costal front and mosque) is very nice (and you can open the windows for some fresh air). Nothing to complain about. Wireless is too expensive - try outside the hotel entrance and catch a wifi from one of the nearby waitung city busses.

Location: Wonderful location just off the boardwalk in easy walking distance to Yaffa, a wonderful local market and many restaurants. Area is very safe - also at night.

Food / breakfast / Bars: Choice at breakfast is wonderful. You can get a lot of middle east stuff - delicious. Good they have also a smoking bar just off the main entrance hall. Also here nothing to fault.

Service: Reception and restaurant staff are all very friendly and very service orientatet.

Would recommend this hotel for all business travelers and for leisure travelers as well.

“A little bit tired and impersonal, but otherwise good”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2012
2
people found this review helpful

This hotel is very fine, it is a pretty standard 4 star business hotel. It is very large and a little impersonal. The night reception staff a little frosty (at least ours was) and the security staff a bit scruffy and inquisitive, although I understand the security problems they face. I must say the room we were upgraded to was very nice and well laid out, with a superb view. You cannot fault the breakfast, it is sumptuous and very generous. You need to respect and understand the Shabbat laws, as these are applied to all guests with regards to the menus in room and in the restaurant. This is a little confusing, for example, on Saturday morning you can have tea, but not coffee or hot chocolate. The food we tried was above par in the other restaurants too. As with any Israeli hotel, avoid going when there is a wedding party on. This is because when Israelis book a hotel for a wedding party, they tend to be very large and some of the guests and hosts believe they own the hotel on this day and it can be hard to get service from the staff. They do also hog the breakfast buffet and pool! We were also upgraded to the 'Intercontinental Club' floor (which means a slightly better room and way better view) but for some reason on this trip, we were not allowed access to the 'Club Lounge' on the same floor, which seems petty, so had to use the lounge on the reception floor. I have pointed out the faults, but they are pretty minor niggles really. Overall, the hotel is luxurious and clean. Some of the bathrooms need updating and have cracked marble. My Wifi was free, but I think this was part of my Amex package deal. Irrespective, wireless internet should be available and free in every hotel nowadays. It is like running water in my opinion, a necessity.

Room Tip: Try to get a 'Club' floor room
