Without the Tel Aviv chaos: 7 recommended hotels for a vacation in Herzliya

In recent years, Herzliya has established itself not only as a central business and high-tech hub but also as an independent tourism and leisure destination. Its proximity to the Tel Aviv metropolitan area, combined with a developed coastline, active marina, and entertainment centers, makes it an attraction throughout the year.

With the end of autumn and the drop in temperatures, activity in the city changes its face. This period, defined as “Off-Season,” allows visitors to experience the city in a calmer atmosphere, without the typical summer crowd. For many hotels, this period is characterized by adjusting services to the season (such as spa facilities and heated pools).

Here are seven recommended hotels in Herzliya.

Daniel Hotel, on Herzliya’s beachfront, offers a hospitality experience that combines business and pleasure. Especially in the winter season, the “Shizen” spa is available—offering an intimate atmosphere and a variety of professional treatments, alongside indulgent facilities including a heated indoor pool, Jacuzzi, dry and wet saunas, and a gym. For couples seeking a romantic experience, the spa offers special packages that include a Swedish couples massage in a private room, followed by 15 minutes in a private oil bath, accompanied by wine and fruit. The culinary experience is complemented by “Sunset Kitchen,” a dairy and kosher chef restaurant located in the hotel, offering contemporary Mediterranean cuisine with a sea view. Shizen Spa offers a midweek “Relaxed Morning” promotion, including a 45-minute treatment and a rich breakfast at Reef Restaurant, priced from NIS 500 per person.

Ritz-Carlton Hotel, located in the heart of Herzliya Marina, offers 195 rooms and suites overlooking the marina or the sea. One of the hotel’s features is the rooftop pool on the 12th floor, offering panoramic views of the marina and the Mediterranean Sea, alongside an attractive bar. The hotel spa includes six treatment rooms, a Turkish bath, saunas, and unique treatments based on local and international cosmetics. The hotel operates the kosher luxury chef restaurant “Herbert Samuel,” which recently received three major awards: Best Kosher Restaurant in the Middle East and Africa 2025, Best Luxury Hotel Restaurant in Israel 2025, and one of the restaurants with the most beautiful view in Israel.

Herbert Samuel Herzliya Hotel offers modern and warm design, with most rooms overlooking the open coastline. The hotel features a dining room with panoramic sea views offering Mediterranean breakfasts, a half-Olympic pool active in the summer season, a fully equipped gym, and conference rooms for up to 40 people.

Dan Accadia Resort, on Herzliya’s beachfront, features the Chalet complex, which underwent a full renovation as part of a major resort upgrade costing approximately NIS 75 million. As part of the renovation, 90 garden and terrace rooms and 5 unique suites were updated. Alongside the Chalet renovation, the resort’s pool, restaurants, and halls were also renovated. The resort’s restaurants and garden areas, redesigned by landscape designer Kfir Fisher, include new pathways made of imported natural stone, Mediterranean vegetation, and a harmonious atmosphere connecting indoors and outdoors. In the near future, the entrance, reception, VIP lounge, and a MINNIE store for resort guests and outside visitors will also be renovated.

Publica Hotel, part of the Isrotel chain, brings an urban, young, and innovative atmosphere to Herzliya. The hotel is located in the heart of Herzliya Pituach’s high-tech area, within walking distance of entertainment and dining areas, blending business and leisure. The hotel offers shared workspaces for guests to work in a designed and comfortable environment.

The highlight of the hotel is the “City Club”—a sports and fitness club with a gym, boxing arena, sauna, and various studio classes such as yoga and spinning. On the hotel’s seventh-floor rooftop, there is a seasonal swimming pool and a stylish bar, overlooking urban and sea views and offering a vibrant atmosphere.

Benjamin Hotel is a business hotel also located in the Herzliya Pituach business area. The hotel offers 113 designed rooms with a comfortable workspace, ideal for businesspeople or couples seeking a quiet, urban, and indulgent vacation near restaurants and entertainment centers.

The hotel features a lobby with free high-speed Wi-Fi, seating areas for business meetings, or sofas for quiet moments with coffee and pastries. The hotel restaurant serves breakfast buffet-style, and free parking is available in the underground garage for hotel guests (subject to availability).

NYX Herzliya, part of the Fattal chain, is located in the heart of Herzliya’s high-tech area and near the beaches. Its central location provides easy access to restaurants, bars, and contemporary entertainment spots. The hotel offers designed rooms and suites, public areas with touches of Israeli modern art, an indoor swimming pool, a spa complex, a fully equipped gym, a rooftop facing the sea, a meat restaurant with a rich and varied menu, and a bar. Additionally, it features a luxury business lounge, conference hall, and meeting rooms.

Herzliya is already looking ahead—recently, the establishment of a new luxury hotel in the marina was approved by the Hagag Group. The project, in which actor and environmental activist Leonardo DiCaprio is also involved, is expected to include 365 rooms in two buildings, a conference center, a chef restaurant, and a special focus on sustainability and the environment.
