hotels in Israel
 
Has the Sheraton Tiberias been remodeled? We are a group of six, hopefully requiring two rooms. I am having trouble deciding between the Sheraton or Inbal in Jerusalem please advise. We will be in Israel 5/22-6/3. My som is having his Bar Mitzvah at the Kotel.

Re Tiberias - didn't go in but drove by in December - looked pretty much the same (i.e., bleh) as when we stayed there a couple of years ago. In fact, most of the hotels in Tiberias looked pretty skanky. We ended up staying in the Scots Hotel and loved it - http://www.scotshotels.co.il/ - owned and operated by the Church of Scotland. They have a Jerusalem property too.

Note it's not a Kosher kitchen (but the best breakfast buffet we've ever had at an Israeli hotel, and that's saying a lot) but well managed and spotless, comfortable rooms. About as different from the Sheraton as one could get.

I stayed there in December. It's in the process of being remodeled. I believe it was going to be closed for remodeling in January and February. I had a suite that was already remodeled that was quite nice. But other members of our group were not impressed with their rooms. I loved it.

Btw-the Sheraton had an EXCELLENT breakfast buffet with an Omelette Bar! Loved it!

Is there anyone who has stayed at the Inbal in Jerusalem?

Maybe you'll find some opinions on Tripadvisor:
