We took a weekend trip to Zichron Ya'akov and stayed at this hotel. It was a very good choice- the place is small and well-kept, with good rates. Breakfasts are included and good and ample; we also ordered extra Shabbat meals (breakfast Shabbat is included as well) which were also quite good. (There was even a minyan in the hotel Friday night, but I'm not sure that is guaranteed.) The location is very nice- the view is lovely and it's not a long walk into the center of town either, about fifteen minutes. Of course, driving is much quicker.

I arrived with my husband for a 2 days relaxing vacation as I first saw this small hotel vine trees surrounding a 20 something stairs leading up to a big porch with amazingly stunning views of the ocean and fishing ponds of mayan tzvi. The staff were very sweet and friendly and check in was fast. The room had a simple decor and was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was served buffet style and had a very large variety to choose from. In late afternoon after touring around as this hotel is in a wonderful location we decided to eat dinner at the hotel restaurant outdoors overlooking the view. Food was pretty good and reasonably priced. I strongly recommend the entrecote steak. Overall a beautiful quit place just to relax.

The room could be bigger and cozy, but it's a nice place to stay. Clean room and good food.

We stayed here with our six year old & eight year old at the beginning of august. The hotel has the most incredible view from the balcony and dining room and also a great view and wonderful breeze in the stairwell - which was important as I had to take breaks going up the three flights to the top floor (no elevator) but it was good excercise. The room was very basic and decor was quite ugly, the air conditioner was very poor (freezing the fold out bed opposite it but no effect on the master bed). My kids enjoyed the paddling pool (which you climb into with a very high, not very stable, ladder) and there is a wonderful jaccuzzi pool with a view of the sea, both on the first floor. We could not get a room with sea view (those are for couples only) but went out to the terrace on the third floor frequently to enjoy the incredible view and breeze. The breakfast was just the best I have seen with a very bountiful buffet complete with gourmet cheese & latte's. just excellent. That and the view make up for most of the other faults. (like outrageous prices for ice creams at the bar). We didn't have dinner there friday either because it would have cost us 360 NIS (100$) so we went out and had a great dinner at a restaurant for less (manuela pasta in the main street). Important to have a car, its out of the way, which was fine for us.
