Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The facility is beautiful. It's very European inside out. The only challenge I had was the construction across the street that bothered me. The service was amazing and they immediately offered to transfer me to their other property- Prima City that was really outstanding- my room was great, location was even closer to the beach and the service was really exceptional.

Everything about this hotel was exceptional. It was clean and stylish with new furnishings. Bed was large, comfortable and the room was fully equipped. Staff was friendly and attentive. Location was surrounded by shopping, dining, markets and cafes. 10 minute walk to beach.

I wanted to give a 5 star review and express how wonderful my stay was here but I can't. From being skipped for maid service (no it was not Shabbat) to the elevator not functioning to having no one at the front desk, it was just not a five star experience. I would definietly stay here again for convenience, location and local conveniences but I will lower my expectations.

Dear Ira,Thank you for your review, we will review your comment regarding the room cleaning, we clean the rooms everyday and if by mistake we skipped your room i want to apologize. regarding the elevator unfortunately there was technical issue that was fixed. The front desk is occupied 24/7. best regards Yaniv

I had a wonderful stay here. Gilad & Dave we’re both very helpful and accommodating with my stay. I arrived early the first day Gilad was able to get me into the room earlier, which helped me. Others helped too and I would come back and definitely stay again. I loved Israel so much I may be back sooner than later. Sincerely, Ron Harris

Jacob hotel
The hotel was lovely and in a very good location. The staff were very helpful. One thing we struggled with was the street noise as everyone likes to honk their horn or you hear sirens a lot, however I’m sure most hotels have the same issue. Lots of bars and restaurants nearby and only a short walk to the beach.

Great hotel, great location, great staff
We had a wonderful one night stay at the Jacob Sameul. We arrvied on a red eye flight and were able to store our luggage and have a cup a tea and quick rest before we went out for the morning while we waited for our room. We were able to check in early and that was so helpful as we'd been up for a long time. We really got the sense that the staff understood this and worked to get us in as soon as possible. The room itself was just beautiful and clean. The bathroom glass door and the brass shower head could have used some extra attention and the air conditioning wasn't working when we arrived but it was very quickly fixed but the staff. There is a busy restaurant on the ground floor of the hotel and does detract a bit from a calm hotel lobby, but otherwise, I understand it's a top restuarant in Tel Aviv. The hotel is in a superb location and if you're new to the area, this is a great place to start. We loved our stay, would certainly stay again and have already recommended The Jacob Samuel to a friend who will be traveling to Tel Aviv soon.

I HAVE STAYED IN THIS HOTEL IN THE PAST AND ENJOYED IT BUT THIS TIME AROUND I HAD A VERY ANNOYING STAY . THERE WAS ONLY ONE PERSON HELPING ALL THE GUEST AND EVERYTHING TOOK FOREVER. IT TOOK OVER AN HOUR TO CHECK IN WHEN I GOT TO MY ROOM THE TV DID NOT WORK AT ALL ,I ASKED TO BE TRANSFERRED TO A ROOM WITH A WORKING TV AND IT TOOK ANOTHER 3 HOURS UNTIL I WAS FINELY IN MY NEW ROOM . THE TV IN THIS ROOM WAS ALSO NOT WORKING PROPERLY . MOST OF THE CHANNELS DID NOT WORK .THE PERSON BEHIND THE COUNTER WAS NICE BUT HE HAD SO MUCH GOING ON THAT HE COULD NOT TAKE CARE OF ALL GUESTS COMPLAINS AS WELLAS CHECK INS. iI WAS NOT THE ONLY FRUSTRATED GUEST .
