We stayed here for 2 nights and it was just fine. The hotel is right on the beach - which I really wanted (so I could dash out for a swim before breakfast etc - as it got too hot later in the day). A lot of hotels in Ein Botek are a bit of a walk from the beach, which would be very inconvenient. The hotel also has an inside (dead sea water) pool and lovely outside (freshwater pool). It is just a shame they they both closed early in the evening - just when we wanted to use them!
The buffet dinner in the hotel restaurant was good. The buffet breakfast was fine and had a good choice. We used room service one night for dinner, (as we had our baby with us) which was tasty and good value. The room was clean and had a great view of the Dead Sea. Also, I believe that this is one of the cheapest hotels in Ein Botek!

Stayed one night on the dead sea. This hotel is good, but nothing special. Our room was not ready on time, but this was not a big bother, as we just went out to the beach, floated in the sea, and went to the spa (which is GREAT, read below).

We stayed on the ninth floor of the hotel, and the view was gorgeous. The room was average, with everything you'd need expect (2 twin beds, TV, spacious closet, desk). The bathroom was very good for a hotel in the middle east, looked slightly out-of-place. The thing which surprised me is that there were 2 safes in the room, which was a nice touch. The only thing which bothered me about the rooms was that they weren't consistent- minor issue though, so won't go into detail. Each room has 2 beautiful posters in it though, which was quite attractive.

Breakfast at the hotel is average, nothing to describe.

Beach is very nice, plenty of space (esp. during the week). Has showers, and changing facilities.

Pool is average, pool staff are rude though.

Spa is great! Features: HOT saltwater (refined water from the sea), great sauna, jacuzzi, massages, dirt masks, clean changing rooms w/ showers.

Overall: for 1-2 nights it's a good buy.

We stayed at the Hod as the second part of our 3 centre tour of Israel. The hotel itself was lovely and the spa and beach excellent. The entertainment at night was a for an older market so we stayed in our rooms at night although there are other public places to chill out within the hotel. Staff were attentive at all levels apart from in the restaurant where standing leaning against the wall with their arms crossed seemed to be the norm! However all requests were fulfilled with the shortest of time.
Overall the hotel does cater for an older market but as we were there for relaxation this didnt bother us in the slightest.

Stayed here for 1 night in September and it was fine, nothing fancy or good just fine. The breakfast was ok, the room clean enough, the spa did the job but not somewhere I would recommend.

Also careful of the El Breik spa near massada my car got broken in there and all my jewlery stollen!
