Previously a Hyatt this hotel has retained the Hyatt's architectural beauty but not its standards. The condition of our room was terrible: the carpet was torn and very dirty, the cabinet housing the fridge was coming off its hinges, the floor lamp didn't work (and when we moved it from the side of the sofa to find the switch we began coughing from the dust). The water in the room is, according to the sign in the bathroom "too salty to drink" so we had to take the elevator to the next floor to get water and ice.....only there was neither an ice bucket nor a pitcher in the room!!! The bathroom floor was filthy, the shower door didn't shut, the towels were thin, grey and as coarse as sandpaper. There were holes in our sheets.

The gym closes at 6 pm so if you like to exercise late it's impossible.

On the positive side the food and baked goods were good. There was no fresh fruit or orange juice in the morning.

The Meridien Dead Sea is a beautiful resort hotel in a spectacular setting. Every room overlooks the sea, there is an indoor and an outdoor dead sea water pool, and the buffets are fabulous. Unfortunately the management is clueless about what goes on and you cannot count on any answers you get from the front desk. However, this really did not affect our stay , just served as an annoyance.
The hotel is well set up for Sabbath observers and I would highgly recommend spending the Sabbath there

This is a fabulous hotel - wonderful views, spotlessly clean, very comfortable beds. The breakfast experience was the nicest part of it, with plenty of food.

The Pool area was really overcrowded, while I believe it was due to the cold weather and less people going into the dead sea.

great room, food, and service. stayed in four other hotels during our Israel pilgrimage but none came close to this place. the best hotel we stayed in. icing on the cake. i love your hotel.
