Dan Panorama Tel Aviv is a large seafront hotel on Kaufmann Street at the southern end of the city beach strip, with 483 rooms. It is a good fit for travelers who want sea views and an easy walk to the sand, since Banana Beach is about seven minutes away and Geula and Alma beaches are close. Carmel Market and Rothschild Boulevard are each about seven minutes on foot, and Neve Tzedek and the Suzanne Dellal Centre are nearby. Facilities include a seasonal outdoor pool, the Emerald Spa, a bar with ocean views and free Wi-Fi. Breakfast is a buffet for a surcharge, and self-parking is available for a daily fee.
Location and getting around
The hotel sits where the city meets the sea, so you can reach the promenade quickly and walk south toward Old Jaffa or north toward the central beaches. Neve Tzedek is close, and Carmel Market and Rothschild Boulevard are about seven minutes on foot, which makes this a useful base for a first visit. For the museums, Sarona and the northern beaches take a taxi, a bike or a bus.
Rooms and facilities
With 483 rooms it is one of the bigger hotels in the area, with the range of facilities that implies. The outdoor pool is seasonal, so check the dates, and the Emerald Spa is available for treatments. A bar with ocean views suits sunset drinks, and Wi-Fi is free in rooms.
Breakfast is a buffet that costs extra on many rates, so compare rates with and without it. Parking is limited and charged per day, so reserve ahead if you are driving. Ask for a sea-view room and a higher floor when you book, since views are the main reason to choose this location.
Who it suits
Families and couples who like a full-service hotel with sea views and a beach within walking distance, and first-time visitors who want to be near both the market and the water. It is less intimate than a boutique property, and it can be busy at weekends and holidays. Light sleepers should ask for a room away from lively areas. If you prefer small-scale charm, one of the boutique hotels near Rothschild Boulevard may suit you better, but for sea views at a mid-range price this is a practical option.
