Satori Hotel in Haifa

The whole building needs updating. Good air conditioning in our bedroom but it was small and the shower leaked all over the bathroom floor taking two towel to keep it dry. Not a great experience. I wouldn’t come back here. Nice rooftop terrace but chairs and cushions all stained.

Cost is high for location and amenities offered. Parking is particularly difficult. front desk folks were friendly. Disappointed that they did not offer breakfast. Rooms are very small. Street noise can be significant. I will not be staying here when I return to the area.

I stayed here for two nights in March 2023. The hotel is located in an old part of Haifa with not much going on. There are lots of shops and there is a McDonald’s in walking distance. The hotel is close to the bus route which is ideal for travel. The room itself has seen better days, the double bed was comfy, but the bedding is stained, curtains have rips and the windows are very thin so you can hear the busy street outside. The walls are thin so if you have noisy neighbours you can hear them clearly. There are ample plug sockets for charging devices. There is a dressing table, chair, two bedside tables, fridge, kettle and tea and coffee facilities. The bathroom is small with a combined bath/shower, toilet and sink. Toiletries are provided but not replenished when you use them. The paintwork is all chipped everywhere and looks quite dirty. There is a bath but no plug is provided so bring your own! Fortunately I had a travel plug but beware you cannot just pull the plug when finished as one of the floor tiles lifts and floods the whole room! So you have to drain it very slowly. This is clearly why the baths have no plug. Rather than standard TV here they use GOTV which is steaming. This has many issues as the WIFI is unstable and I had constant buffering on every channel the first night. But if you connect to the 5g network this works much better. On the fifth floor is a rooftop view of Haifa, there are chairs and tables to sit and enjoy the view here which is nice to relax. The hotel is quite large and has six parking spaces which are very hard to find, they are located round the corner through a tiny alleyway. If you find a space there is a door to the hotel from there with an intercom. This is not always answered but if you walk round the corner there are steps up the the hotel entrance and the door is always open. This hotel really has seen better days, but is good for the price. It has a comfy bed and if you are just looking for somewhere cheap to sleep with good travel connections to go to other areas this is a good option. But for anything else this hotel is in need of major refurbishment.
