Kedma by Isrotel Design

I don't remember exactly the date, but had to pick one. Very very nice accomodations Pool was closed but food was excellent. We didn't spend much time there. We came in very late and left early morning. But it was a very nice place. I don't know what else to say, but tripadvisor is requiring 200 characters. So by now should be ok.

Beautiful hotel,friendly attention,excelent breakfast,very restfull stay,activities like night are very recomendable.All in all would come back to this hotel again.

We stayed at Kedma hotel with family and friends. The experience was wonderful. The hotel is very beautiful and atmospheric. The rooms were well designed and comfortable. Food was also good. We heard there was also a possibility for private dining. We highly recommend staying at this hotel especially if you are planning to explore the beautiful area around it.

For the supposed premium quality of the hotel I can summarize in one word UNINSPIRED. From the first moment you come in, it feels more like a dude ranch than a premium desert retreat. Came to the Company's yearly retreat, you come in to the hotel, you are told to leave your luggage in the middle of the lobby and go to the pool, or have lunch, lunch consisted of SANDWICHES in the main restaurant... with a very small variety and with no alternative to people that don't eat bread. Then, wait till 14.30 to get our room cardkeys and finally take our luggage to our rooms (remember we are about 400 people that left their suitcases in the middle of the lobby), and on the way to the room and all around the hotel there is this very annoying shanti music playing to loud to be relaxing and its just annoying. At dinner (again, remember, we are in the middle of no ware in the desert), uninspired buffet with nothing attractive to eat, the hummus looks like its been sitting there for a long time, no big variety at the salad bar to choose from, the meats were ok but nothing more and the desserts were just disgusting. The bed was too soft, not verry orthopedic, something you would find in a no-tell motel, wasn't able to rest properly. Israeli Hotels are known for their fabulous breakfasts, I guess being in the middle of no ware, they did not get the memo, I've seen a larger selection of pickled fishes in a 2 star hotel than what was offered here, same for salad selections and not verry organized at the omelet station, serving 400 people that have to be in the buses by 9 for their next activity, only 1 cook. Last but not least, the only well organized station was the coffee barista maned by 2 people in perfect sinc, and the coffee was not bad.

Building in keeping with surroundings (which are quite dramatic and the area is definitely worth visiting), but re the design; shame there’s no view from pool or gardens , buildings surround central courtyard which makes sense for its original purpose , to host an international security conference, and is shady , I guess , in summer but quite cold in winter, and that rooms face out onto the Highway , with noise an issue both between rooms and from the motorway… However, the deal breaker here - avoid this place and look beyond this compound to find charm - is the attitude of the staff.. bar staff spent last half hour of eve too busy cleaning up to be all done and not serving anything well in advance of 11, and there’s no room service after 11 (maybe not before either) .. a hotel in the middle of nowhere, which essentially closes its bar at 10.30 when it says 11 , and thereafter doesn’t have room service to get a beer. Six Senses this is ain’t! Over priced , style over substance, very short of what it promises, just not hospitality of any quality , despite the measured sandstone design.

We went for a 3 day stay in January with family and friends. Everyone was very happy of the hospitality of the staff . Rooms were clean and nice Food was just amazing 👏 Everyone were impressed by the various delicious dishes. Spa treatments were just insane. We all had various spa treatments and it's was a very high level. Merav the beverage & food director was so welcoming and pampered my 2 young boys. Gal from the kids club was very sweet and joyfully played with my boys. It was perfect 🥰 Toda Boaz you are doing an amazing job. It's our third time in Kedma its defently our second desert home . נחזור בהקדם

To start with the positive: a fantastic looking desert inn, in an outstanding area of Israel. The staff is friendly and patient, with a cute unprofessional desert style. Avoid it if you are looking for peace and quite, cause you’ll hear every sound surrounding your room, as it walls, doors and ceilings were not planned soundproof. Breakfast is impressive but according to morning traffic towards Tel Aviv: bumper to bumper, while impatient drivers of all ages are taking over from every possible direction, while communicating in the local loud-voiced manner. If looking for a more reasonable value for a much too overpriced hotel, disregard this exuberant oasis.

From the moment I arrived everything was more than perfect. The whole staff was superb and here are just some of the names: Ariel at the coffee bar, Benzi, Meir, Maria , Yarden the life guard, Itai and Itamar at the restaurant, Maria the housekeeper Meirav and Oren in charge. I would like to compliment Boaz for running the Show

Very attractive hotel but expensive Rooms are large and comfortable Small terrace Nice SPA and swimming pool Many outdoor places to sit in the shadows Great morning buffet Very tasty evening big buffet Everyone is nice and helpful Many dishes for vegans
