Cucu Hotel

We stayed at the Cucu on 3 separate occasions on this visit. Each time the staff were welcoming and helpful, allowing early check in if available, otherwise storing our luggage so that we were free to wander around Tel Aviv. We were in 3 different rooms, each was spotless and comfortable with a fridge, hairdryer and safe. We chose basic rooms which are small but sufficient for a couple, as I would expect in an older hotel in the heart of the city. We had a welcoming large bottle of water on each visit. You must try the lift just for the pleasure of pressing the buttons - I challenge anyone not to smile when they do!!! The breakfast in the restaurant was excellent with a good choice on the menu. There’s a separate a la carte menu and you can upgrade if you choose. The coffee machine downstairs has great coffee and hot chocolate. There’s a choice of teas and hot and cold water. Also jars of tempting sweets in the reception - just help yourself! We found all the receptionists to be friendly and helpful, even when we arrived back to the hotel at 4.30am! Position of the hotel is excellent with plentiful shops and cafes and buses. We chose to walk everywhere - to the Carmel market and the beach (15 minutes if you can manage without a coffee or snack on the way).

My wife and I had a reservation for a romantic weekend (Thu–Sat) at the Cucu Hotel, as well as tickets to the Beit Lessin theater and the Lev cinema, both just a 5–10 minute walk from the hotel. They made a strange mistake and had no rooms available despite our confirmed reservation! All they did was apologize, offering NO COMPENSATION WHATSOEVER!! We’ve never experienced such a low level of hotel service in Israel, and we were very disappointed. If everything goes smoothly, it might be a nice hotel, but if you have any issues, expect the worst service. There are much better options in the area!

Just wonderful. Friendly staff. Great facilities. Free massage was great at another hotel (the Nordoy, with access to their sun deck when we went). Great gym access at nearby Dizengoff Center, including classes. Fantastic location also, with buses and the beach all within easy walking distance.

The coffee machine at the lobby, available and free for 24/7 was great. The coffee was excellent, by the way. The rooms are pretty small but well equipped. We had a beautiful balcony, disconnected from the main road. The staff is very pleasant. We loved it.

The position, the cleanness, the service they offer. The kindness of the staff. The hotel offers everything you need. Nice to have free tea or coffee in the lobby at any time of the day. Thanks staff!

I had to wait long for my breakfast because there was non available tables although I booked in advance Plus the room was dirty But the service was good The front desk lady was nice
