A comfortable and homey facility, set in a gorgeous place. Everyone (staff and kibbutz members) is so friendly and welcoming, and the spa is superb.

Our stay at the Ein Gedi hotel was aamzing! The property is beautiful, and you have lots of beautiful hikes nearby. The pool and spa amenities were also fantastic, I would definitely visit this hotel again. I would note, the buffet options are some what limited, but the food was good for the most part.

Nice, but wouldn't stay again.
Staff at reception was great, and breakfast was amazing. But overall I felt like there weren't a ton of amenities for the price. Pool closes at 6 even though the sun was up till after 8:00, and although they made announcements in hebrew, I did not understand them and was abruptly told to get out. I realize it was probably a language barrier, but still. The pool allows smoking unfortunately, so trying to enjoy the beautiful grounds was hard while smelling cigarette smoke, listening to loud club music guests were playing on their personal speakers, and stepping over trash littered all over the pool are. Not what I expect from a hotel at this price point. There is also zero help with arranging transportation to nearby attractions if you don't have your own vehicle.

The hotel is attractive and professional. It is managed by the kibbutz, and we enjoyed having breakfast with them. The grounds are a botanical garden, which is remarkable given the harsh desert that surrounds the Ein Gedi oasis. Comfortable rooms.

Not a fancy place so those seeking luxury and nicer amenities look elsewhere but if you’re looking for ambience and character Ein Gedi hotel is great!

The gardens are amazing! The rooms are quite small and modest, as expected. There are essentially no food options nearby other than onsite. The bar has a limited menu. Otherwise the only choice is the dinner or breakfast buffet, which costs about $60 per person and is full of so-so food. Beautiful stop for an afternoon and evening only.

Our room was nothing like advertised and was in very mediocre condition. My partner went to leave the bathroom and the door handle fell off leaving her stuck in the bathroom until I returned. The front desk clerk seemed indifferent to our concerns. The pool was nice. The food was abundant but very boring. Meats were very fatty and the Asado Stew was hard as a rock

Ok hotel in gorgeous location
Basic hotel and service, but there are not too many options around Dead Sea, so it is functional enough to stay for couple of nights. Beautiful land around it, nice views. Overpriced for the quality, but again, not too many options, everything else in the area is even more expensive. No issues really other than absolutely no one on staff ever smiles, but apparently that is a norm in Israel.

Great location. Staff if very nice and speaks multiple languages. Food was good. Perfect place to stay near Ein Gedi and Masada if you do not want to stay at a big hotel. We stayed in one of the larger rooms to accommodate a four person family. It was perfect for our needs. The spa was also nice and included in the price. We did both dinners - meat (all you can eat buffet) and milk (restaurant) - and enjoyed them. The meat option was great but come hungry. They were even nice enough not to charge for one of the guests because they were not going to eat.
