Logos Hotel in Yad Hashmona

I stayed at Yad HaShmona Hotel for an academic writing retreat with a group of colleagues. The hotel was very accommodating—they provided us with a classroom space to work in during the day, which was exactly what we needed. Two of us stayed in the basic rooms, while my friend and I booked an upgraded room. I think the upgraded rooms are definitely worth it—the basic rooms are a bit too minimal, while the upgraded ones come with a balcony, a coffee station, and are overall much cozier. The mountain view from the room was lovely and added to the atmosphere. The only downside is that the trash area is located too close to some of the rooms, which slightly takes away from the otherwise serene setting. The hotel grounds include extensive gardens and easy access to the surrounding outdoor area, where one can enjoy very pleasant evening walks. The setting is peaceful and has a unique rural charm. Breakfast was exceptionally good and is provided by Luisa Catering, which I also used for my wedding back in the day—they are truly excellent. Everything is made from local products, and the menu includes precise, well-prepared dishes like homemade quiche and eggs made to order. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay.

Wonderful mountain retreat in the Judah Hills The Logos hotel is a recently renovated and rebranded hotel complex nestled in the Judah Hills. There are a number of bungalows each with amazing view of the surrounding hills. The facilities were very nice and included a small gym and sauna. The Israeli buffet breakfast was incredible and delicious. Tons of options.

We stayed 3 nights-our family group counted 14 people,3 generatioms ,all ages... The place is really inviting to stay in,the surroundings offer splendid views, lot of interesting sites to visit nearby. The staff, the food,the garden,each of these issues allowed everyone to enjoy,to feel the perfect holiday ! The rooms were very nice,with a terrace ,a small fridge as well,the breakfast offering a rich variety of food and very tasty. Warmly recommended!

Lovely guest house. Overnight stay but wish we had more time. Great place and wonderful location. We’ll be back.

The place is modern but warm. Great room, great service and smiling people giving very good service. I am a diplomat and have traveled many places - and hotels. The staff at had hashmona made me feel comfortable and liked - by the willingness of the staff to serve with a smile amd dignity. Most recommended!!

This is a hotel that doesn't feel like a hotel. I stayed in one of the little cabins. It was very comfortable with a private balcony. The food was superb! There was a huge spread every day. Fresh bread, hummus, veggies, cheeses, fruit, and a nice variety of main dishes. The best part about this place is the Biblical Garden. I walked through there every morning. I enjoyed the serenity of the place. And I took loads of pictures. If I ever have the opportunity to travel to Israel again, I would stay there.
