Rooms are great, the pool is quite small in compare to the amount of guests. What was exceptionally awful was the friday through Saturday food, the quality of the products was the cheapest you can find, the meat, chicken and fish was as dry as a bone, uneatable. Overall, i wouldn't recommend coming in. weekends to this hotel One more weak point, it is impossible to sit outside because of the horrible very loud "relaxing" arabic style of music, it is impossible to just sit outside and talk to each other

Totally relaxing - an oasis of peace. Liked · The Kedma hotel is exquisitely designed throughout and down to the smallest detail. The style is unique, using local crafts and materials to blend into the landscape. The food is plentiful and delicious (although pricey), and the service is polite and attentive. I think Kedma should be a source of pride for Israel, competing easily with any hotel in Europe.
A literal oasis in the desert. Beautiful immaculately clean rooms tastefully designed in a frontier/safari motif. This aspect is especially noteworthy because the hotel was occupied by displaced families from October 8th 2023 straight through January 2025. One of the lovely managers told us that Isrotel's decision to house refugees preceded by several weeks to government assurance to reimburse them for their generosity. The pool area is generously equipped with lounges and yummy cocktails. Food was delicious, inventive and plentiful but the lack of pitchers and the necessity to keep getting up for drink refills definitely downgraded the culinary experience from fine dining to work cafeteria .
The hotel was perfect. The Orient brought to life in so many ways. Beautiful setting, marble flooring, mashrabiot, Arabian music playing softly, delicious food both in the lounge restaurant and in the main eating room. Service with a smile at all times. Gorgeous pool and garden fire pits light up the pool area at night. We had the best time ever.
It's a nice hotel. High end , just below luxury, or low level luxury. Breakfast is excellent. Rooms are fine - but nothing special. There is an espresso coffee machine. We had some trouble w the water in the shower (low pressure). Pool is heated , so very nice in a sunny winter day. There is a small spa. Location is very good for desert trips. Tremendous views very close by. Bike trips are a nice option. Main issue is the cost. We had a good mid-week winter deal. 700 shekel per night (still close to $200, but this is Israel). But common 1200-1500 shekel for weekend is not reasonable form me.
