Herbert Samuel Bayit Bagalil Boutique

We spent two nights at the hotel earlier this week, and we had a fantastic stay. The hotel has just recently started taking guests again after serving as home for displaced people from the north for 14 months. As a result, they've done a thorough cleaning and rejuvenating job to get the place back up and running. The room was super-clean and comfortable and everything worked fine. The hotel is only 25 years old, but looks and feels like a mansion built 100 years ago. It is really majestic on the outside and very comfortable and grand on the inside. We got a great rate (for Israel--everything is relative) and we were upgraded to a large garden room with a view and a balcony. The hotel is literally in the Birya Forest. The grounds are beautiful. There is tons of inviting space both inside and outside for lounging around. We spent a lot of time both driving and walking in the forest. Everything is green and the wildflowers are in bloom. Because the hotel is just getting going again, the dining room is not serving dinner yet. The breakfast buffet is terrific and has a huge variety of food. We had a great dinner at Bat Ya'ar and a light lunch at The House at the Edge of the Landscape (lousy translation) just outside of Amuka. Both have terrific views and are fun places. If you are looking for a few very relaxing and enjoyable days in a unique hotel and in a great location, I highly recommend Bayit Bagalil.

we will stay again.. stayed one night, rooms are very specious, clean and confrotable, public area are very nice, very cosy and inviting. Spa at the hotel is great - enjoyed it treatment. breakfast is very good. hotel is in middle of a beautiful forest, we loved the place.

what a gem! amazing hotel! clean, grounds are beautiful. staff very helpful. pool is absolutely beautiful with view of the kinneret breakfast was amazing room was exceptionally large and comfortable

Beautiful hotel with terrible staff and service The hotel is beautiful, but the service and staff is horrendous. The staff is rude and insolent. It ruined the experience for me.

Lugar lindo! Ficamos na suite presidencial que eh maravilhosa. Comida mto boa tambem. Mas falta profissionalismo por parte dos funcionários. Mal falam ingles. Pelo menos senti que se esforçaram bastante para nos agradar. A limpeza dos quartos deixa a desejar.

Wonderful hotel in just the most beautiful location! We took a room with a jacuzzi bath (tricky to climb into to turn on the water and to climb out from- luckily there's a sturdy handrail!). The hotel is just beautifully appointed, marble flag stone floors, spacious sofas. The staff is excellent, attentive and helpful. Love that there are dried fruits, biscuit jars, and a decorative urn with boiling water for any type of tea or coffee you could desire 24/7. Pool area wonderful too. Would have liked pancakes/ waffle option at breakfast, that's only minor minus.Looking forward to a return visit in the not too distant future!
