Dan Tel-Aviv

Tel Aviv, Israel

Virgin rating

The hotel

Overlooking the beach and close to Tel Aviv's bustling centre, the Dan Tel Aviv was one of the first luxury hotels to be built in the city. Having seen many celebrities walk the hallways, you'll feel like a celeb yourself when you step through the front doors and enter the modern splendour. You can choose between an indoor and outdoor pool, as well as a few different dining options. And at the end of a busy day (or night), retreat to your cosy room for some well-deserved down time.

Stayed two nights at the Dan Tel Aviv before the troubles. An excellent hotel in a great location on the seafront. Accommodation was excellent and the restaurant was first class. The rooftop pool was a real bonus. Definitely a must should I ever have the opportunity to return to this vibrant city

The room was fine, comfortable bed, clean a great shower. I booked, at extra expense , the club lounge only to discover on arrival it was being refurbished. A very limited menu was on offer in the bar area which did not in any way compare with the lounge which I have used many times before. The hotel is good, great location, helpful staff but I do… Read more

And the Israel breakfast kept me going back for seconds and thirds - I will not need to eat again until after the weekend! All in all, I hope I will return here soon. Read less

Elegant hotel (much better than it's sister Dan Panorama Tel Aviv). Excellent room and breakfast options. Helpful staff. The sleeping room was well equipped, comfortable and it was easy to access the wifi. In the past, I have stayed at the Incontinental and the Carlton; I'd be happy to return to the Dan Tel Aviv.

I have recently had 2 short stays at both the Dan Tel Aviv and Dan Eilat hotels. These are both top of the range prestige hotels of the Dan group.

I have recently had 2 short stays at both the Dan Tel Aviv and Dan Eilat hotels. These are both top of the range prestige hotels of the Dan group. I was amazed to find such a difference between these two supposedly 5 star hotels. Firstly I should point out that the cost of one night in the Dan Tel Aviv for bed and breakfast is only slightly less than 2 nights bed and breakfast plus buffet dinner and return flights by Arkia at the Dan Eilat. I think this confirms what many previous reviewers have suggested that the Dan Tel Aviv is priced too high. While on the subject of cost, it might be worthwhile noting that in the Dan Tel Aviv if you by mistake use a plastic bottle of water they charge an exorbitant price whereas the glass bottles of water are free; at the Dan Eilat the plastic bottles are free. The Dan Tel Aviv no longer provides free newspapers; the Dan Eilat does. I was very surprised that the Dan Tel Aviv has no blankets or duvets in the room. We had to request two; they only delivered one and we had to request a second one. Quality five star hotels normally have something in the rooms during the cold weather. The Dan Eilat is very well staffed compared to the Dan Tel Aviv. For instance, there were 4-5 clerks at reception at the Dan Eilat but only one at Dan Tel Aviv. Some would say that comparisons are odious but I would suggest that the comparisons I have outlined of these 2 suposedly first class hotels, the Dan Eilat is far superior to the Dan Tel Aviv.Maybe the manager of the Dan Tel Aviv should visit the Dan Eilat to see how to manage a prestige hotel efficiently.The ''Best of the best" rating for the Dan Eilat is fully warranted whereas the Dan Tel Aviv is a long way off achieving this honoured status. Years ago the Dan Tel Aviv used to offer a daily first class business lunch. They stopped offering this after a 50% increase in price killed the demand. They also used to offer a splendid Saturday lunch which they have also stopped. I sincerely hope that my review may encourage the management to follow the example of their sister hotel and improve the service and value that they offer their customers. Read less
