Herods Palace Hotels & Spa Eilat a Premium Collection by Fattal Hotels

Not bad ……………..

Really enjoy the stay

Very poor condition, we changed the room because of broken shower, cigarettes were all over the terrace, the furnitures are full of stains, the food section is full of dirt (chairs and tables) that’s not even close to be a hotel that asking for 500$ per night. It’s the 7th time we’ve visited this hotel and the last one.

The hotel has an underground parking. Spacious rooms with a nice size balcony, big TV, safe box, fridge, coffee machine with capsules and a desk. The hotel design is beautiful, the staff is very friendly and responsive. We were staying at the Vitalis - the hotel's health branch where no cellular calls allowed on public areas, and no kids as well. We can have meals at either sides of the hotel and the food is fresh, varied and delicious in both dining rooms. The hotel has a swimming pool and a spacious tanning area.

Announce me one day before my vacation that there won’t be pool cause it is in maintenance and it will be in another Herods hotel They agreed for a full refund but now there is no reply and I can’t cancel my order and stuck with a 5 stars hotel with no pool

Great vacation , great food and good service and especially by the public relations managers Rinat Benita that Wes taking care that we will gate what is needed. We took room that include the free drinks and lunch and it was very nice to get it between the track fast and dinner

I highly recommend me professional, attentive service, the whole team takes great care. All the meals are varied, delicious with the smile of the whole team.

I would never choose to stay anywhere else in Eilat. If you ever close your eyes and dream of the perfect vacation a d the perfect hotel, then Herods Palace is that place! Hard to imagine something better. Eilat plus Herods equal perfect vacation. Almost anything i could say would not be enough or do it justice so I hope the 2 key words - perfect vacation- would convince anyone to give it a try!

In short hotel is fine... just fine... But those looking for a real review, there are highs and lows. Highs: The staff is friendly and they are everywhere, cleaning the pool, the buffet area and the rooms (our housekeeper on the 11th floor, I think his name was Mohamed, was amazing!!) The pool is big and towels are plentiful even when it is busy. Drink and food prices by the pool are reasonable for a resort. High but reasonable. There is a small convenience store just to the side of the hotel where you can buy cold drinks to take to the room. The AC works well, except when you are asleep and the motion detector clicks the AC off and you wake up sweating and need to wave your arms around for the AC to kick back on. Towels were fresh and clean. Lows: The food is just not good. It is pretty and plentiful but has no taste. (there were 2 items in 4 days that we loved. The spicy fish on Friday and the Bahn rolls with Asado on Saturday). Besides that everything needed salt and flavor. The "chef" who cut the salad was super nice and made everything fresh. The hotel is old, old, old... Hot in the elevators, much of the old areas that used to be cool are closed down, even when it was packed. The floors are clean but look old. Rooms are again, old but clean. The buffet area, again, old and clean. You just can't keep the old and clean for 25 years, hotels need renovation. Check-in takes forever. Most people come in on Thursday or Sunday. Put another few people on the check-in for the busy hours... come on people...service!! Lifeguards - there are 3 that I saw but only 1 actually did anything. One of the guards was 100% sleeping while on duty. And one guard for 2 pools is never enough. All of it could be so much better if the food was good. We would even overlook the old rooms and public areas. But eating there breakfast and dinner for 3 days, we just felt that we had to leave on the forth night for dinner. Couldn't take the blah anymore. If you are looking for a great restaurant try La Cucina, just down the boardwalk. Oh - one more thing. We had 90+ people in our group and the hotel wouldn't set us all up in one area for Shabbat dinner on Friday. So much of the benefit of being together is doing Shabbat together. What's the big deal? You have a company paying so much to bring their people and you can't find us a corner to reserve for one evening? That's just bad business. For that reason, more than anything else, we will not return to Herods. if a company doesn't want our business we will take it elsewhere.
