Jo Hotel

Bushra at reception welcomed us warmly and was very helpful. The location is perfect, though the rooms are small.

I loved the relaxed, quiet atmosphere throughout the hotel, including in my room, despite reviews saying the rooms can be noisy. The rooftop pool was the main highlight, with a stunning view, and my balcony had a lovely outlook too. The rooms are fine for a good night’s sleep, even if they don’t look quite as good in person as they do online. The area has a quirky, cool vibe, and you can walk to either of the two major train stations in under ten minutes. The staff were lovely and very accommodating. I loved it.

I was glad I picked this hotel for my week in Tel Aviv. The neighborhood is unusual, with a Shoreditch kind of feel, and I found it intriguing. The rooftop pool has magnificent views. Reception let me check in early, and I appreciated being able to pay the refundable deposit in cash. Some staff smiled more than others. I only tried breakfast once because I’d booked room only, and I wasn’t keen on it. It was great being able to smoke on my room’s balcony.

The rooftop pool is open in summer, and although the hotel feels tucked away, the city center on Yigal Alon Avenue is about a 30-minute walk. Inside, the place feels modern and comfortable, with a calm atmosphere and a polished entrance. Reception is easy to find and help is available right away. My room was clean and modern, with a good wardrobe, fridge, and other amenities. A comfortable, peaceful place to stay, and I’d come back.
