It took me about 2 hours to find the hotel, travelling from Haifa Ha Hagana station and using the number 46 bus. It should have been straight forward, but it turns out there are 2 Jerusalem Boulevards and as I didn't have working wifi, I missed my stop and when I asked for help was sent to the wrong area. Also, the hotel is upstairs, located in a block between 2 closed/empty shops- so from the road appears to not be there. Look out for the Bloomfield stadium as this is very close! However, once I'd found it- it was very good. Lovely comfortable bed with an eclectic collection of books to read. There were no coffee making facilities in the room, but an excellent selection with snacks outside. Jaffa market is 5 mins walk away and well worth a visit. I also went to Deli Alhambra just up the Boulevard which has great local beers and hip hop. The journey from Joseph hotel to Ben Gurion was painless and took about 40mins via bus and train.

Finding the hotel.

The hotel is 10-minutes walk to Jaffa flea market and there are lots of restaurants around it. Most restaurants were opened on Shabbat. The hotel has a 24-hr buffet coffee bar with snacks. The receptionist was very kind and helpful. We arrived at Tel Aviv on Oct 6, 2023. Sounds of explosion were heard the next morning. The receptionist acted calmly and showed us where the bomb shelter was. Although worried, but we felt safe.

It is a bit difficult for taxi driver to find the hotel driveway entrance. It would be good if the hotel can provide driving direction with map. The lift was not working (not because of shabbat) on the day when we arrived. So we had to carry our luggages via the stairs to the first floor. Luckily our rooms are all on the first floor.

The proprietor was very welcoming and accomodating. He brought a special chair to our room so my disabled wife could sit more comfortably. I liked the fact that self service hot coffee and a variety of cakes and biscuits were available in the lobby at all times of the day and night. The room was clean and a welcoming place to return to at the end of a day exploring the nearby sites in the old quarter of Jaffa, which was literally within walking distance from this ideal location. Parking was free and convenient. A light rail stop was very nearby so there was no need to even move the car during our stay. The room rate was reasonable and I'm sure I will stay there again next time I have reason to visit the area. We did not avail ourselves of all this hotel had to offer because its location is full of interesting eateries to sample from, so that's we did for meals.

I honestly have no complaints.

great location close to all restaurants and bars. the beach is only few min walk.. new designed rooms, excellent and free coffee, cakes and snack bar to sit during the day, and wine at the evening.

location - across the road from old Jaffa market and street type restaurants. Easy work to central Jaffa. Rooms quite quirky design for a hotel, comfortable. Treat table available at all times. Didn’t opt for breakfast which was to be had in another hotel. secure entrance with pin code needing to be used in order to gain access into hotel.

Entrance foyer downstairs with green curtain hanging was not very inviting or attractive but actual hotel reception was upstairs. Our room was on the main street so somewhat noisy with passing traffic.

Very nice room with a comfy bed and good shower. The coffee machine was really good with free complementary croissants in the morning! Location is perfect in Jaffa everything within walking distance.

Nothing. The music when you enter the building is quite loud it would make more sense as quiet background music, but it’s a minor thing.

A great choice thanks to the nice staff, perfect location if you want to stay very close to Old Jafa. But it's also a walking distance to the center of Tel Aviv and then you can return by bus. Spacious room, superb bed linen, comfy bed. Spotlessly clean bathroom with a huge shower space. A huge variety of sweet and salty snacks, as well as different kinds of tea, coffee 24/7.

Everything was perfect.

The snack bar and rooms were fantastic for the price point. Above expectations! The location is great for Jaffa as well. You can explore some of the local scene and get to Old Jaffa in less than 10 minutes walking at a leisurely pace.

The main elevator wasn't working during our stay, so we had to walk through a part of the building that was not great and had me losing hope that the hotel rooms would be ok. I assume this is a small temporary problem and likely should not affect future stays.

The hotel was in a fantastic location, within walking distance to the beach and old Jaffa town centre. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. There was a coffee and water machine right outside the room with an abundance of snacks and food available free of charge. There was also a bottle of wine for you to have a glass from each night - a lovely little touch.

Nothing!

Room was spacious and had a mini-fridge. Wifi working really well. There was a free snacks, tea & coffee buffet 24/7. Had we known we would have opted for the non breakfast tariff, as breakfast was served anyway outside the hotel, at a close by cafe. Helpful reception staff!

I wonder why the black & dark green colors… it is more of a style/taste question, yet it looked a bit strange to us. Also, this is not an issue about the property per se, yet it is located at a kind of abandoned shopping mall…
