The hotel advertises that it is "steps from the Dead Sea..." They fail to mention that it is a very steep driveway - as a matter of fact they offer a "shuttle service" for those very many older guests who aren't able to make it down to the Sea or back up to the hotel under their own power. No private beach - just the dirty public one with tour buses coming and going all day. No real relaxation possible.
The rooms are indeed spacious, but have no balcony, small windows (which made the room stuffy because no breeze came in), badly working toilets, etc.
The food was mediocre.
To top it off 200 euros were stolen from my room, with the hotel saying I must have just "lost" them.
All in all most disappointing. Have stayed at the Lot and the Tsell Harim and both were many times better. Would never stay here again and will in the future always book into a hotel with a private beach. It's worth the extra expense!!

“Good for low-budget stay”
Just back from Gardens Dead Sea.
Not a bad hotel, with a spacious rooms (alas, without balconies), just about 50 metres
from the Dead Sea.Very reasonable Spa (free of charge for
hotel guests), friendly staff.
However,the food is rather poor.
Quite an option if you get a good price -
otherwise, you'd rather prefer one of 5-stars hotels nearby.

“Pleasant Stay”
9
people found this review helpful
We went to the Dead Sea during the low season in February. The Gardens Hotel was reasonably priced compare to the rest of the hotels in the area. I enjoyed the indoor pools and the Spa had an excellent massage therapist. The rooms were average but very clean. Overall the hotel was pleasant.
