Blue Bay Hotel and Spa, as described on the website (with pictures of gorgeous rooms, a stunning pool, and a beautiful exterior):
"The new Blue Bay Hotel and Spa lies on a cliff at a beautiful location, by the sky blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea. The hotel's location, 20 miles north of Tel-Aviv, is far from the city's commotion yet close to shopping and entertainment centers. The pastoral atmosphere provides a perfect setting for the hotel rooms located on the cliff, overlooking the Mediterranean Sea."
Rates are affordable, and the website gives you the urge to book. But, as one TripAdvisor reviewer writes, "I call this place the Hotel from Hell. I'd seen pictures of this hotel before I came and I thought it looked good so I thought everything would be fine." Another writes, "The online picture of this hotel is beautiful as is the outside of the hotel, but only from a distance." It seems that lots of people fall for the website. But, as the reviewers write, in fact the "new" hotel is old, with worn carpeting and furniture, a virtually non- existent Spa, nasty staff, bad food, bugs and ants in the room, and broken gym equipment. Even so, the Blue Bay still seems better than some of the other hotels in Netanya.
