New Hotel in Mitzpe Ramon

No, don't get all excited- it's not the Isrotel. Although we finally made our way down to see the Beresheet hotel, and yes, it's gorgeous. Unfortunately, the layout leaves something to be desired- some of the cottages are alongside the parking lot, making it feel like a drive in motel. And, a portion of the Crater rooms with private pools aren't so private- the pools are open to the main courtyard area, making it easy to spy on you in your "private pool". So no skinny dipping, please. However, the common areas and pools are very beautiful, as are the views. Now open is the Ramon Hotel, not to be confused with the Isrotel Ramon Inn. The comfortable hotel, sister property to the Montefiore Hotel in Jerusalem, offers 34 rooms, mostly suites. The hotel, while no means luxurious, looks very nice and new.
