The hotel promises a memorable stay, and that's what we got. It took half an hour to check in... without only one guest waiting in line in front of us. The receptionist basically ignored us for half an hour. The service is terrible. The rooms are terrible as well. This hotel puts up very nice pictures, but ti's a classic example of trick photography. What you don't see is that the hotel is constructed entirely of concrete and is directy over a busy street. It's got the character of a parking garage. Given that the marina is surrounded by a lot of other hotels, I would recommend checking them out. The Marina is a disaster. It's dingy, it's ugly, and the service is terrible. So yeah, it's a memorable experience, but in the worst kind of way.

I stayed in this Hotel in March things may have improved since then. Israel hotels are not cheap including this one. Felt like a nice UK Travelodge.

The room was fine, although nothing special. Clean, comfortable and quite.

The breakfast was ok a good selection. Certainly not like a real 4 star though.

Location was great for the beach, other hotels, taxis etc. Fair walk into town though.

Service was reall just terrible. Rude and horrible. I felt invisble at times when waiting at reception. My booking company had not sent the fax through even though I had the email. I was told to get a phone card and phone them outside. Nice of them! I would of stayed a week but because of this I moved hotels after my second night.

I stayed at the Marina hotel for a week. Room was decent-nothing spectacular. Service was poor. Staff was unhelpful. How this hotel got its 4 star rating, I have no idea.... Would not stay at this hotel again, nor would I recommend it.

Spent 10 days in Israel as part of an educational trip, so I have no idea of the price.

Good things:
-Hotel is across the street from the beach
-There is a pool on the 7th floor (although the hours are 11-5....)
-It is in a russian-immigrant area, not a tourist area (the best comparison is like Coney Island without the stadium or the amusement park) which is a good thing since I wanted to see more than a sterile tourist area
-Tel Aviv and Jaffa is a cheap cab ride (~$5)
-There are several good restaurants-Spanish, asian, casual in the hotel. I ate at the casual place, had gnocci with a pesto cream sauce, and it was excellent
-The breakfast area is very pretty and the food was pretty good

Bad things:
-There is a bookshop with bad hours (10-6)
-The high street is lowbrow
-The mall/supermarket is a mile walk
