Frommer's Review
This hotel, set in a high-rise built in 1986, is less expensive and usually has a busier pace than its sister hotel, the Dan Carmel, down the street. It's just steps away from the Carmelit Station and part of the upmarket Panorama shopping mall complex, which houses a choice of clothing shops, small eateries, and snack bars just off the hotel's polished stone lobby. The pool has been fitted onto the roof of one of the building's lower wings, and catches breezes on hot days. Rooms are 1980s modern design, efficient (even lower-category rooms have hair dryers), and classified in price according to their views (windows in many rooms are not really big enough to make the most of their vistas). The location, a short block from the Carmelit stop and the Carmel shopping district, is excellent -- after a hard day's touring, there's nothing like not having to climb hills and trudge blocks to get to your hotel or a choice of dining spots! Lots of pleasant Dan Hotel Chain touches here, like the especially good spread at the breakfast buffet. At press time, there are bargain deals as low as $120 for a double room.
