Stayed four nights on a two week trip with extended family. Hotel was a pleasure! Staff were friendly and helpful, especially the activity desk and the concierge. Food was incredible, especially for Sabbath dinner/breakfast. Beach isn't crowded- they are at the end of the row of beach-front hotels, so you only have Herod's folks at the beach. Pool was very... more

This is one of the finest hotels to date in Israel and considered the best hotel in Eilat. It is at the end of the promenade and features three buildings: Herods Forum, Herods Vitalis, and Herods Palace. The forum is a cheaper hotel and not situated directly on the beach but rather across the street. The palace is the main... more

For over $300 a night, I was concerned about the 3.5 rating this hotel had. I went anyway, hoping that most of the reviews that rated it a '5' were correct. I voted it a complete 5 after staying there. The room was luxurious, albeit a bit old. And by 'old,' I mean that the furniture was not all completely... more

The location is superb next to the sea and the promenade with many shops and restaurants. The hotel has several pools including a very nice big one. There are enough chairs surrounding the pools but... more

Best beach. Best crew. Best food. I recommend this hotel more

We stayed at this hotel for two days on a recent trip to Israel. Originally we had only reserved for a Sunday night, but we had an accident at the Dead Sea and we had a relative in Israel change our reservations to Saturday and Sunday. After he changed the reservation, I called to confirm. The front desk was very... more

We stayed at the Herods Palace for 3 days. The hotel is in a great location, and our room had a beautiful view of the Red Sea. The pools were fantastic; even though we were there during high season and the hotel was crowded, the pools did not feel too crowded. The concierge was excellent -- restaurant recommendations and reservations,... more

This hotel is rated as a 5 star hotel , the only 5 stars I will give it is for the breakfast which is superb. The lobby is nice but other areas like the pool and some corridors are just plain dirty. some parts of the pool like the empty juice bar at the end of the pool is all... more
