Worst first experience from a five star hotel I have ever experienced. We took at taxi from Ben Gurion airport during rush hour (over an hour) and the driver didn't know the exact entrance to the hotel (it's not very obvious or well marked). Instead, he dropped us off per our request by a side entrance and a guard. The guard proceeded to yell at the old taxi driver and told us NOT to tip him and that he was a bad driver. He then proceeded NOT to help us with our bags or have someone come out to help us. Just sat back down with a scowling disposition. I've been to Israel multiple times and I know customer service isn't like other parts of the world, but for a hotel of this class and price, my first interaction with the hotel staff should be a little bit better than that. They should take some notes from the Mamila in Jerusalem. Otherwise, the hotel is beautiful, well maintained, clean, and comes with a completely ordinary daily israeli breakfast with mediocre service.
