We came as a family with two adult children. While the location might be slightly remote - having a car addressed this issue. The apartment was very nice aWe did not use the spa
The hotel is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. I initially saw the hotel from the outside and thought "it is not that fancy" but then we got in and we were suprised and instantly in love with the hotel. The room is super clean, even for fancy hotel's standards, the food is super good on Friday night - Kidosh, and the breakfast is good as well. The staff were super supportive and friendly, sadly it felt that they are kind of understaffed but it may be just my feeling. Overall, 10/10 would recommend my friends and family.
מלון מוזנח ומלוכלך לא שופץ שנים
excellent service, breakfast, location ..... definately visit again
Rooms are tired and dated. Terrific location. Staff and pool area are great.
the Hotel is very basic rooms and Design, can use some face lift, the staff is nice. there is nowhere to eat around there on the weekend. the Hotel Dinner is extremally pricy and does not includes Wine or even Tea. we basically paid for the night twice since we had nowhere to eat and ended up eating the Hotel dinner which is buffet style. there is no elevator.
Excellent service. Staff immediately helped with heavy luggage. Renovated pool is beautiful. Dry and wet saunas are delightful. Rooms are clean and the food is good.
The hotel is clean and pleasant, I lacked coffee served on breakfast.
Location of the hotel was great and rooms were spacious but my family got bed bugs from the stay. The overall hotel didn't feel especially clean, there was food on our steps for the entire day. Recommend other hotels in the area
The hotel doesn’t have elevators and we were on the 4th floor…No parking either. You have to park yourself on public areas and download the local app. Mitzpe Ramon is highly recommended.
A nice, family-friendly place to stay when visiting the Ramon Crater. The room was clean and a large size, and the kids loved the pool and the amazing Israeli breakfast.
One of the family’s favorite buffets - shakshuka! Always had one staffer fluent in English. Grateful for assistance with free parking. The only tv we had during vacation - only pool too (and a nice dunk)
Staff were very friendly and helpful. The daily breakfast was amazing!! The room was clean while somewhat basic. Please note there is no lift/elevator at this hotel. It wasn’t an issue for our group, but I think it’s something to be aware of. Parking is on the street, and like in the rest of Israel it isn’t free. You’ll need Pango or Cello to park via those apps, and to do that you’ll need an Israeli phone number. Parking is enforced- I forgot to set parking one morning and sure enough- I got a ticket. :) Back to the hotel- lovely pool, great food, clean facilities and pleasant sitting area off lobby. I recommend it!
Loved that it has an apartment unit for 5 of us! The location is pretty central, close to food choices and was very walkable.
we always enjoy our stay in isrotel. the hotel is looking a little run down since our last stay two years ago
Reasonable price. Enjoyed the pool. Good breakfast. Clean. Cheerful staff
Great value for money. We stayed 5 nights, half board. Rooms are mid-range, but clean and comfortable. Staff very accommodating and friendly, food was fresh and delicious, with several buffet choices. Excellent as a home base for touring the area
שהיה נעימה בסך הכל, ארוחת בוקר טובה, תמונות החדרים באתר לא מעודכנות ולא היה ברור לנו איזה חדר נקבל.
Came to Mitzpe to see the desert and town. Second time have used this hotel. Clean friendly service & good location. Will come again.
Great value for money
We stayed at the family suite which was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was rich and tasty.
Amazing hotel. Super clean, comftorable. Very close to all main sites in mitzpe ramon!
we came to rest there for 2 nights . It was noisy all after noon. the AC was on HEAT when the temp outside was More than 30 degrees Celsius and they said they couldn't do anything Disappointing!!!
Very basic accomodations recommended for people travelling in the area that just need a room to sleep in. No elevator so if you have infants or a disability make sure the hotel knows - we thought it's clear guests with infants can't be placed at the 3rd floor but we were wrong... Dining hall an pool were closed due to covid.
We stayed in the hotels for 2 nights, The apartment was huge and very satisfying for 5 persons. The kitchen is nice and was very usefull because there is no options
It's simple but nice. We didn't realize there was no lift so when we were offered help with our bags I politely refused however getting the kids and luggage up three flights at the start was a chore. The pool is great for all ages and the lifeguard very diligent. Reception staff were super helpful with tourism and eateries.
Small, clean hotel. Good location for trips to Maktesh. Staff super friendly and we were impressed by their adherence to Covid regulations. Due to fact that there is no lift, staff leave huge bags of laundry on the stairs and the corridors while cleaning which is not very esthetic.
It is a good Fridley Hotel, with good spacious rooms especially for families and groups. Nice swimming pool, fantastic breakfast
Room was good - once you get to it. THERE IS NO ELEVATOR! I had to drag my bags up four flights of stairs to get to my room. This was either a poorly planned hotel, or a conversion of apartments. Either way it was a major pain. Unfortunately, unless you are willing to spend $600 USD for the Beersheet, this is one of the only viable options. Parking wasn't bad
We stayed at the Ramon Inn for one night on our way to Eilat, we wanted to split up the drive. The common spaces are great and up to Isrotel standards, the breakfast is wonderful and full of choices. Unfortunately, I can't say the same about the rooms themselves. They are quite basic and the bed isn't very comfortable. A double/queen bed is actually 2 twin beds put together. I understand that this is because of religious customers, but I wish there was another option. The pool area is nice, albeit can get quite loud if there are screaming children. Service, however, is 10/10. Everyone was nice and they are doing a great job at following COVID regulations (even as they change nearly every day!) We found that we didn't have towels in our room, so we asked the front desk and they were there PRONTO - and they were warm!
Amazing service and very clean and Corona friendly!
The room is on the 4th floor without elevator, and on the check in I discovered that the price is higher because I need to pay vat, so the price is very high with everything for what we get
Very good breakfast
The pool was closed ,we were told it will be fixed the next day. It was still closed so we left .the condition of the facilities is very bad, the room was not clean. we found other people stuff in the furniture.the bathroom was flooded when we showered.nothing to do inside the hotel ...
Within an hour of booking Israel Ramon Inn, I realized the site had reverted to a January date rather than the March date I needed. I emailed the hotel. I emailed Hotel.com and then called. I was promised a resolution in 24 hours. Apparently that resolution was the hotel was unresponsive as I never heard another word.
Quite expensive for a very basic hotel that has outdated facilities and decor. Breakfast was quite good but a lot of the cooked food was too salty.
אירוח מושלם. המיקום, הצוות האדיב, והמתקנים השונים. אנחנו מכירים את המלון מהעבר ונגיע אליו שוב בהזדמנות אחרת בעתיד!
very good hotel highly recommend for family , the only problem is that no elevator is exist and we got 3 floor room thanks
The overall experience was ok. The hotel employees were very helpful and friendly. The pool is very nice and the hotel is in an excellent location. However, the hotel is not in the best conditions (the rooms especially look old). The beds are uncomfortable and not especially clean. The dishes in the kitchen were not well washed and the sheets and cloths had several stains. There is no elevator and on the stairs, there were boxes of sheets and bags that made it very uncomfortable and dangerous to walk there. In the room's description, it says that there is a microwave, but there was none. The manager was friendly and got one for us. The power went out at least 4 times. They took care of it very quickly when we complained but still was very annoying. It was not the best experience for a family vacation.
After visiting hundreds of hotels worldwide, I don't believe I was encountering such a bad offering anywhere!!! and I certainly didn't write this kind of review in more than 10 years I am using Hotels.com!!! It started that we didn't get the suite we ordered (We ordered a 50sqm suite and got 28sqm suite that we paid more than 400USD a night!! the most un-cost effective I have ever met!), then it happens to be on the 4th floor with no elevator!! The website and the receptionist didn't bother to mention it or to offer help with the luggage and gave us wrong directions, so we were carrying all our staff to 4th floor and down again.....Her superior (Xenia) refused to apologize. On top of all these issues, there were some additional small staff that just get you very bothered (The A/C wasn't responsive and it was either too hot or cold, the pool is open for 8 hours daily, they didn't have an extra chair when we asked for, we waited 15 minutes on the line to the coffee in the morning....world record!!, the light in corridor on the pool table was broken, the room wasn't clean even after noon time.....). I think Expedia needs to ask themselves 3 big questions: 1. Why do they call the room suite while it is hardly an apartment (The hotels website call it apartment). 2. Why the description on the website do not fit the one the guests get 3. How this kind of hotel get a review of 8.2? I must say the only positive thing was the efforts and understanding of Yossi Levy the manager!
The hotel is totally dated and run down. The rooms are horrible , the bathrooms smell and are dated and the carpet is from the 70’s. Actually the whole hotel has a 70’s feeling.
The hotel is more like a motel. Very small beds and there were some hairs on the sheets as well as 2 giant moths in the room... the only option for dinner was a buffet for 40 bucks with not many vegetarian options apart from salad. It's a very nice location in the desert but a very small town, so not practical to stop unless you come by car. Not very comfortable for the price they ask. No elevator going up to the 3rd floor. Would not stay here again.
the room was on the first floor with no view all the rest was perfect
I knew in advance that there was no elevator but three flights of steps to and from your room is quite a bit multiple times a day. The breakfast was delicious and varied, a true Israeli breakfast. There was only one garbage can in the suite which was odd.
Good for backpackers. Like a motel 6
We enjoyed our stay at the Isrotel Ramon Inn for 3 nights. Staff was pleasant and helpful. The pool is great! Breakfast was included in our stay. We had our other meals at restaurants within walking distance to our hotel. The Ramon Crater was amazing. It’s 3 minute drive from the hotel. Walking trails are within the crater. There are many other day trips you can take from the hotel. The hotel can provide you with information nearby activities.
From the start we got into the hotel we had to wait one hour to get checked in because apparently their system was down, one we got checked in we were told that our room was on the third floor and this hotel doesn’t have any lifts so we had to carry two heavy suitcases up the stairs which is crazy, I have never been to a hotel without any lifts! Then we went downstairs to use the pool and were told it closes at 6!! Who in their right mind is going swimming before then, so we had nothing to do in the hotel in the evening as the TV is very limited and of very low quality and there is nothing exiting in the area to do, the next morning we woke up at 10:15 and called reception to ask when breakfast ends only to be told it is at 10, and we were not informed anything at the time of check in, and to top it off they took my card at the beginning of the booking and charged £138 and they had no record of it on their system so I showed them the pending transaction on my banking app, they said they don’t know why that is and they will have to contact their accepting team who took my email address and subsequently let me know that they had reversed it a few hours later, but I should not have had to have gone through such hassle, I would stay well clear of this place, if you don’t you have been warned what to expect!
Great place to stay when exploring the south. Get the dinner it was well worth it!
The Ramon Inn was very conveniently located, staff was very friendly and helpful and the restaurants in the hotel allowed us to enjoy choice of meals without going out again when we were tired. The only negative is there is no elevator but if walking up a flight of steps is no problem, as it was for us, it is a great place to stay when visiting the Machtesh
Good location. Comfortable hotel. Good food at breakfast and dinner buffets.
The breakfast and coffee were outstanding. We had an issue with the door to the restroom where you would could get locked in. The breakfast made up for that problem.
Nice hotel with good vibes The area is beautiful Very large room. We will come back
We had a lovely time. The hotel is attractive, with a lovely lobby and dining area. Rooms were clean. I asked for a room for three people and they gave us a bedroom with twin beds and a living room with an open up couch. There was a tv, fridge, coffee maker and ac , of course. Hotel is in center of town near everything. Mitzpe Ramon is a small town in the desert of Israel, overlooking a beautiful crater, which can be explored from around and from within. It is also near home of Ben gurion The first president of Israel. It is a blooming desert with beautiful landscape . I highly recommend a visit to the area
Nice place for less money than Bereeshit. That said, there are no elevators so if you have a lot of luggage, request help from the staff. Phone in the room didn't work and the room smelled of cigarette smoke for a time because someone smoked in the stairwell and wasn't allowed to. Yael, the manager at the front desk was the best part of the stay. She was so sweet and did everything possible to make my stay comfortable. Id recommend that hotel just because of her! Breakfast was good too. Nice selection of different types of food. Great location. All in all, i enjoyed my stay.
In a town with very few hotels, this is a good place to stay. Good service and a reasonable room.
Great breakfast friendly staff. Hotel is nice but the town is very boring
The Isrotel Ramon Inn hotel was a terrific place to stay while visiting Mitzve Ramon and the Ramon Crater. The hotel is a two minute drive to the Ramon Crater visitor center, which overlooks the magnificent crater. (You can gaze at the canyon, as well as drive down into it - lots of hiking trails to do.) The hotel was modern, nicely designed, and had great extras like a very large indoor pool (as well as dry and wet saunas). Our studio room was perfect - it had a comfortable living room, a separate bedroom, and bathroom. For those inclined to cook, there was a small kitchen with fridge and cooktop. The room was immaculate. Our breakfast was included with our room - don't miss their breakfast as it was sumptuous!. There's also a cafe in the hotel, although we didn't have an opportunity to frequent it. Friendly staff, great room, great location - all added up to a lovely time. We'd definitely return to this hotel.
The location was exactly where we wanted to be. The staff was friendly and helpful including arranging our camel ride and giving us directions to get there. The dinner and breakfast buffets had a wide variety of sumptuous food.
No elevator but they help with the suitcase
This hotel was very well appointed and while it is certainly not a luxury hotel it is kept very well. Its clean and the staff is attentive. We went for dinner at the hotel, which was good but expensive - of you know you are going to eat at the hotel I would go with full board - better value. Overall was pleasantly surprised.
Very clean. Food ok. Great location
The staff was very friendly and always ready to be of assistance, even trying a bit harder. The lack of elevators is a bit of a drawback, especially for older people, but we managed. Unfortunately, most of the time, people going up and down the stairs were noisy, not having been told strongly enough to consider guests in nearby rooms. Signs are not enough - parents, especially, have to be told to make sure that their children be as quiet as possible when going up or down the stairs. The food was plentiful and good but it would have been more efficient if full platters could have been brought to replace empty or almost empty ones rather than have empty platter taken away and after a while, bring the full ones. Again, what stood out the most was the efficiency and friendliness of the staff - all the staff.
Great breakfast. Fabulous pool was broken and closed during our stay, unfortunate as this was a main reason we preferred this hotel. Hotel did not have beds made according to our reservation (choice of one big or two small beds, sofa made as bed). Hotel does not have elevator, so they should have staff carry up guests' luggage instead of standing around. Room size and condition are typical of hotels at half this price, but lobby is big and hotel has conference rooms, nice if you need them but worthless if you don't and thus overpriced for visitors like us.
a weekend away with another couple - fabulous base to take advantage of all the activities associated with the machetesh rimon - sightseeing, cycling, atv, hiking, viewing the stars (with Ira the Starman), going to Negev wineries, visiting goat farms/cheese making. Hotel was very down to earth and very relaxing. Great Israeli breakfast. Fabulous friday night dinner. Staff was extremely friendly and almost all the rooms are suites. Beds were very comfortable. Very good black-out curtains. Great pool, sauna and steam room. Hotel has very interesting history -- was originally 2 separate apartment buildings that were very creatively reconfigured and transformed into a very nice hotel.
Ramon Inn Israel is like an old fashioned motel. It is well locsted, has a nice staff, but can use a little updating, like elevators.
Nice location but rooms above 3rd flor with no elevators is unacceptable
The hotel lobby was cold. No food was available in the evening, probably because the hotel was empty.
We had a mini suite with 2 bedrooms and a living room. the mini suite was comfortable and clean. Relatively nice weather in the Israeli summer due to the high altitude (~800m above sea level). Impressive Desert landscape on the verge of the biggest crater. some hotel improvements are desired (see below)
This hotel came is 2nd best in the reviews. I'll stick to the facts: Four floors-no lift. Porter available but miserable and moody. Room decor very dated. Receptionist was nice but extremely slow, and i literally had to wait 25 minutes to check in!! There were two guys behind me too, and a third cut in line and was actually served!!! Price very very high for what we got!
Great atmosphere, perfect location in Mitzpe Ramon.
Mitzpeh Ramon should be a must for anyone coming to Israel. If you don't want to splurge on Breshit (which is amazing) Isrotel Ramon is a great option
The staff and service were warm and excellent. The location was central to the machtesh. We had a problem with the refrigerator in that everything kept freezing and the food we had purchased was ruined. But the hotel compensated us. The pool and facilities were very nice.
We stayed for two nights with 3 young kids to spend some time at the Makhtesh. The lobby, indoor pool and restaurant are great. We loved the restaurant's Beduin decor, and the food was unexpectedly fantastic (so much so that we decided to eat there both nights). The problem is the rooms. All are large apartment style rooms (as this is a converted apartment building). The space and layout are fine, but the quality of the furnishings and overall decor is quite low. The rooms look and feel like they have never been updated in 30 years, and basic kitchen amenities like corkscrews and wine glasses are missing. With a mid-level redesign and updating, this could be a great hotel. It's unfortunate that no attention is paid to the room quality. Still, for now, unless you want to pay 5x the price for the sister property across the way, this is probably your best bet in Mitzpe Ramon.
Overall hotel was perfect, rooms are large and clean. We didn't check the pool but the breakfast was really good. It is a 2-min drive away from the tourist center and the hotel also rents bikes! Overall because of the size of the hotel and the price, it feels like this hotel may be better geared towards families staying a few days in Mitzpe Ramon.
We loved staying in the Ramon Isrotel Inn. We had a double room with a lovely kitchenette and were even able to cook ourselves one night which was a welcome opportunity to relax and stay in the hotel. The pool and spa was wonderful after full days of hiking and a jeep tour. And the breakfast was amazingly good. So much to choose from. What a great stay!
This hotel has a very pleasing atmosphere. The rooms are comfortable and nicke equipped with refrigerator and water kettles. We would have appreciated wash clothes, but that seems to be a rare accessory in many hotels. The breakfast buffet was excellent as was the dinner buffet at a slightly steep cost. Our only complaint was their stingy policy on internet access.
Staying at the Ramon Inn otherwise know in hebrew as Pundak Ramon is a mixed bag. The rooms were spacious (two room suites) and breakfast was Ok but for the kosher consumer who goes to Mitzpe Ramon you only have the four kosher hotels ( and plenty of non kosher ones) and a pizza shop and schwarma place so you really have to eat at the hotel which was very over priced for what was served. Most of the staff was friendly and tried to help with the exception of the wait/bus boy/girl staff which was not good at all. Also it would help if the front desk personnel spoke English or another language to help customers. One was perfect and the other not a word which didn't help when the toilet got clogged up. Next time I probably will try one of the other hotels to get a better value.
