"It’s called a hotel, but it felt like a resort!! Amazing PlayZone for kids (which they opened for us outside of the hours). Beautiful outside area with lots of spacious seating and swings in tree. Heated swimming pool (closes before sunset). Wonderful breakfast. Most all rooms have a side view of the Sea of Galilee. Our family loved the Gomeh and would stay again! "
"Awesome, it was amazing being there. The staff are the best part -everyone is so kind -and the manager is amazing, and the hotel is very well organized. "
"The Michel House is. a beautiful place just on the edge of the old city. It has been renovated with modern amenities but still holds the original feel. The view from the rooftop is spectacular. The manager and the owner were very kind and welcoming.
The hardest part was getting there through the city and the parking. But since it it in the center of the city, I guess that is to be expected.
Since it is family owned, early morning and late hours are harder to get a hold of someone, but they try to accommodate this with several contact numbers. "
"I had a lovely stay here, the hotel was great, offering a breathtaking view to the sea of Galilee.
All staff were wonderful and welcoming, the lady reception manager was most helpful in providing assistance as I needed a taxi upon my departure/checkout. All other reception staff were wonderful too. Restaurant staff and housekeeping staff were fantastic, very helpful and always had a smile 😁 All other staff members from other departments I had some across were also wonderful too 🙂
I would recommend this hotel to anyone who is looking to visit for a few days, or maybe longer 👍"
