NYX Tel Aviv

all expectations were exceeded, great for business trips or couples looking to experience tel aviv

Check in was trouble free, you do need to make sure you have your blue ticket with your passport, which you get when you enter the country when you check-in but the staff are very good (well during the day anyway) First impressions was being greeted by a full on cake, drinks and food display which I was instructed to try (thinking it was for a conference) and it tasted good, you'll also find a barbers on the reception floor and constant security which is a nice touch. The room is long and thin and air conditioning was very good and you need it in a country like this, I even had to turn the room number up as it can get very chilly, TV was great with all the latest apps built in like Netflix and YouTube and you have a coffee machine ready to go, bathroom was full of toiletries but the shower liked to leave a lot of it's water outside of the shower, so watch out for that as the door seals are a bit old. WiFi is great and all times and you're get awesome mobile signal if you need to keep in touch. Breakfast was a real option fest, from local dishes to absolutely mind-blowing coffee made fresh on a per cup basis. This is backed up by the service but the night team can let it down, I found the receptionist was sleeping on the sofa one night and kept going back when I was talking to a friend in reception. This was a minor point, it's a very "showbiz" type hotel and they've held parties on the roof and the biggest and best of Israel have been here. A good place to stay, the area around it seemed a bit rough and ready and I was approached by beggars three or four times near the hotel but never felt unsafe.
