The little touches make this a special boutique hotel. loved the silent movies constantly playing in the entrance lobby and the complimentry popcorn at the reception desk. The roof top lounge has a great view of Tel Aviv. The wine, drinks and cakes offered at 4:00pm were truly appreciated after a day of exploring Tel Aviv. Rooms are a bit small. Most of the staff was very helpful. A few need to go. Enjoyed the variety of foods offered at breakfast.

This hotel was centrally located on Dizengoff St (near Dizengoff Shopping Centre) and in easy walking distance of most places of interest. The rooms are small but acceptable. We stayed in room 511 which was quiet. The free WiFi worked well in the room and the breakfast was great with a large choice of food.

Staff at the reception were very friendly and helpful.

The hotel itself is a superbly restored International Style ("Bauhaus") building on Tel Aviv's central Dizengoff square, and really stylish from the exterior and from the interior. Don't miss the view from the roof terrace!

The hotel has a rather lively surrounding day and night, and the window does not completely block out the noise (it was OK for us, though).

We stayed three nights at the Cinema Hotel over the New Year weekend, and it was perfect. Our room was quiet and comfortable, the breakfast buffet superb, the location (at the edge of Dizengoff circle) great for strolling everywhere, the staff (particularly one of the receptionists, Ido) was helpful and informative.... and it felt like a haven in the bustle of Tel Aviv. The only drawback was that it was hard to find using the the Budget Car-Rental map, since many of the streets are one-way (which is not shown on the map)-- a GPS would have helped! The beach, the newly re-done port, the old city of Jaffa, and a thousand cafés and restaurants are all within comfortable walking distance. You have the feeling of being in a small hotel of considerable character, rather than in some anonymous chain hotel, which definitely adds a special dimension to the trip.
