Extremely noisy

All the positive aspects mentioned by other reviewers were present at the property. The staff was very friendly and hospitable, the service was outstanding, and the rooms were clean, beautiful, and spacious. There was a fantastic atmosphere of an antique building in the heart of a very old city, complemented by a delicious and generous breakfast. However, we left after the first night, even though we had booked for three, and here’s why: 1. The mattress was far too soft for us, resulting in backaches that lasted the entire next day. 2. The nearest minaret is about 100 meters away, and the muezzin starts calling for prayers loudly at 4:55 AM. We prefer to sleep at that time, but it was impossible. 3. The sound insulation in our room was almost non-existent. After spending the evening listening to other guests talking and coughing as if they were in the same room, my wife refused to be intimate in the hotel. Of course, this was just our subjective experience.

You too can feel like an effendi

We had a wonderful stay in this restored mansion house. The rooms and public areas have stunning high ceilings. There are artworks in every corner. It is like a museum, The bedroom, bathroom, beds, and linen were perfect. The position is in the heart of the old city overlooking the sea. We did stretching exercises every morning on the balcony where the management had left gym mats. The outstanding breakfast was served in a large hall with a six-meter ceiling! The breakfast was a fusion of the best Israeli and Palestinian cuisine. A lovely spread. This was an excellent choice of hotel in this interesting town. The hotel staff without exception were charming.

Special Hotel

Beautiful hotel in the center of the Akko old city. Pros: fantastic service, rooms are large and very comfortable, common areas are simply beautiful and very unique. Location is great for those looking to spend time in Akko. Cons: given the location, expect unusual noise in the middle of the night from the mosque nearby and in the early morning from church bells. Yes, it adds to the ambiance, no, it is not charming and does not allow a good night’s sleep. Friendly tip: the beautiful window decoration in each room that allows sunlight in means that full light comes in early AM. Let the hotel know that you’d like it covered if looking to sleep in.

The boutique hotel was amazing, and the rooms, and common rooms are beautiful. They are attentive, free minibar for soft drinks, water etc. My only complaint would be it’s hard to find along small street and impossible to get your car really close. Parking is not so easy and is off site. But once you get there, it’s a true experience. We would stay there again. Yana at front desk is a wealth of knowledge on the historical aspect of the building and she’s inviting, friendly and all smiles. Wouldn’t be same without her.

More than a hotel, the Efendi is truly the epitome of luxury and comfort. The rooms are spacious and beautifully decorated, down to the smallest detail. The bathrooms are equally spacious with large showers and tubs, marble floors and walls. The ceilings are very high (15 feet or more) and allow for large windows providing abundant natural light. When not in your room there are several places to relax including a beautiful roof top lounge where you can watch the sun set, a northern patio with a spectacular view of the sea and the coastline, and a cozy cellar room. The hotel has an excellent selection of Israeli wines for purchase and these can be enjoyed in all these spaces. Despite being surrounded by buildings in the old city of Akko, the interior of the hotel is quiet and calm. The hotel also offers what I consider to be the best breakfast anywhere in Israel. It is fresh, varied, and plentiful, and served in a beautifully restored Ottoman period room. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and always available. I also recommend that you try the hamam treatment. It was a fantastic time, in a room that is made just for this type of experience. We stayed for two nights and could easily have stayed for two more.
