Currently, the top hotels in Herzliya are the Dan Accadia and the Daniel. Are these two hotels poised to compete with the Ritz Carlton? The Dan Accadia's guest rooms in the main building have just been renovated, and the lobby and public spaces have been spruced up. It enjoys a good location right on the beach and exclusive chalet rooms with patios or balconies. But the exterior is aging, and the pool area is not so nice. For a one night stay on October 12-13th, the rate for a standard room is $450 USD, and a garden Chalet room is $650. The Daniel's exterior is also lacking, with a very rundown look. Inside, though, the rooms are large and pretty, the beach side pool is stunning, and the Shizen spa and its separate guest rooms are a definite plus. The rate for the same dates is $309.95 USD for a superior room. The Ritz Carlton's location is atop the Marina Mall, right on the marina. This means that the beach will be a short drive away, not on site. The lack of grounds and a more urban feel will certainly distinguish it from the other hotels. The public spaces and guest rooms, as well as the service are expected to be luxurious, as assumed from a Ritz Carlton. The rates at the Ritz will most likely be in the $500- $700 range for these dates. So, the question remains- will loyal patrons of other hotels switch to the new kid on the block? Or will they continue to return to the classic beach side resorts?
