After a 5 day stay at the Drisco I can tell you that the hotel is a true dream. Hezi the hotel manager “or as we call him Jessie “ is the most amazing kind man. My mother and I had such a wonderful time we wanted to take Hezi home with us. This hotel is spotless, runs beautifully and makes you feel welcome at every turn. The staff including Yotem really care about their jobs and just want to help. Thanks Hezi and team we will be running back soon!!! Regards , Richard

What a dreamy spot- a beautifully restored building, great and well proportioned rooms. The restaurant is a true delight- Michelin level. The only awkward bit is that for some rooms you walk thru the dining room. The gym is small but suffices.

We recently spent three wonderful days at the Drisco Hotel. It was one of the finest hotel experiences we have ever had thanks to Gabriella and every single person on staff from the front desk, the doormen, housekeeping, waitstaff at breakfast to our personable rooftop bartender named Israel. Our room was lovely, well appointed, included the latest in technology and was exceptionally clean. Breakfast consisted of a magnificent two-course selection as well as a beautiful buffet. We also thoroughly enjoyed Happy Hour with our fellow hotel guests on the rooftop deck. The neighborhood was charming and just a short walk to many trendy cafes. All in all the most pleasant hotel experience you could possibly ask for.

We’ve stayed in other 5-star hotels in TA and none compare to this jewel. The whole experience was extraordinary; comfortable and exceedingly clean rooms, the view of the sea from our third-floor balcony was breathtaking. Breakfasts were fabulous and dinner at the highly acclaimed George and John’s is a must. Most of all, Hezi and Yuval and staff make you feel like royalty. Everyone has a smile for you and a sincere interest in making your stay a special one. With no exaggeration, this was the best hotel experience we have ever had. When we return to Tel Aviv this will be the only place for us. כל הכבוד!

Thé Drisco hôtel in my opinion is the most tastefully appointed hotel in Tel Aviv . It’s incredibly charming and so are the staff . I loved the duty manager Yotam I think his name is and the other tall guy with the pretty eyes - I also forgot his name . Wish I wrote all this down and the Italian lady at the front desk was so so so sweet and elegant in her mannerisms and interactions with us . On our first night they upgraded us to a larger more gorgeous room because we thought first room was too small and my husband and I would kill each other lol staying in such a small space for 5 days . So they immediately transferred us to a way more spacious room with 2 balconies even , one in main room and one in the bathroom . I have a huge passion for bathrooms and the one in that room is just an absolute delight . The white carrera marble and those stunningly beautiful wall tiles plus huge ample standing shower area really gave the entire space a very happy and fresh vibe . The whole hotel feels happy and just makes you smile upon entering . They have this gorgeous scent wafting throughout the hotel on account of this very nice diffuser they have placed strategically in various locations and that is even available for sale should you wish to take that scent home with you . Very reasonably priced too ! The main restaurant is the best in the Middle East and won awards . So I highly recommend you dine there one night and book through their concierge service months in advance or you’ll never get a table . Speaking of which , when you book hotel , their concierge team immediately forwards you a guide of interesting places to see and dine at . I followed all their recommendations for each evening we were there and they did not disappoint . We loved them all and I thought that’s a very clever way of interacting / engaging with your guests before they even arrive . Highly recommend the Beit Kandinoff , Shaffa bar for drinks , and Hilweh market for high end souvenir shopping . Overall though this hotel really knows what it’s doing on a number of levels . The Management’s main priority is their guests satisfaction and this is very evident in their dealings with you . I promise you won’t regret staying here . Oh and breakfast is served at that award winning restaurant so even the food there is out of this world . Their steak eggs Benedict is an absolute must not to mention their avocado guacamole thingie which is making me hungry and salivating just from reminiscing about it . I give this hotel ten stars all the way . They ticked all my boxes and then some . Thank you Hotel Drisco for such a memorable stay in your beautiful country with an endless amount to offer :) I sincerely hope to return one day and advise all people that are unsure where to stay on their upcoming visit to not think twice about booking here . You will thank me later :)…

Exceptional stay for our week at the Drisco. Starting with a warm welcome by the hotel’s manager, Hezi Talay, the staff provides an impeccable experience. The attention to detail and to our well-being were all truly appreciated. This standout gem sits in a quiet, historic neighborhood. Hezi hosts an informative walking tour exploring the rich history of the hotel and its neighborhood as well as a relaxing evening rooftop happy hour. Our room was clean, comfortable and well-appointed with a small balcony. It’s a short walk to the beach and other attractions. Hezi displayed an encyclopedic knowledge of Israel and was very helpful with arrangements for our day in Jerusalem. We enjoyed generous breakfasts at the Drisco’s George and John restaurant as well as very good dinners with superb service. A relaxing massage at the Daria spa completed our wonderful experience at the Drisco. Very much looking forward to our next visit.…

We arrived at 2am after late flight arrival. Concierge was ready to receive us at the door on arrival and luggage was taken to our room. Room was spotless and very comfortable bed ! Loved the breakfast and nothing was too much trouble. We were leaving for a long road trip and we loved the fact that take away coffees were made for us at no additional cost ! Will be back for sure !
