Hotel Berger

Pros.....free parking, fridge in the room, breakfast not bad, flat screen tvs but only a few stations. Cons......westerners will be surprised that the shower is old Israel style, in the middle of the tiny bathroom with no separate stall. This fact alone makes it unable to be rated a three-star hotel by western standards. Not much the hotel can do about this without completely gutting the hotel and replacing the bathrooms. When you finish showering you must use the giant squeegee provided to push the water into the drain. Basically the hotel is about as basic as you can get. If you're an economy traveler the place is ok.

Staff were extremely helpful with travel ideas and advice. Breakfast was a good selection. Hotel is about 15 minutes walk from the main tourist area. This hotel was well worth it for the cost.

This hotel provides good quality 2* accommodation (not 3* as listed). Rooms are adequate but linens aren't in the best of conditions. Lower flower rooms (especially rooms 108 and 109) suffer from noise from the main road which passes the front of the hotel. Breakfast is a cold buffet with a fresh, plain omelette offered. The hotel is located up the hill from the main town centre and is a hefty walk back. All in all, an adequate hotel for the price paid but nothing special.

The owner or manager is very helpful.

I was looking for a hub from which to explore the Galilee area, and the Berger was a relatively inexpensive location. The hotel is older and the rooms are small, but all I needed was a place to shower and sleep. The Internet worked pretty well in the room. The breakfast was mediocre, but definitely enough to keep me going for most of the day. Park g was only available on the street, but I never had trouble finding a spot (tourism in Israel was down significantly during my stay). It was about a 15-20 minute walk to the promenade where most of the restaurants and in-city tourist attractions are located. There is a mall and grocery store on the way. If you don't have high expectations, you will be satisfied.

Hotel Berger was a great spot from which to base our Tiberias tour. The owner, Eli and his wife, were charming, and extremely helpful. We were given a room with a kitchenette, and told that we could have a microwave brought into the room if we needed. They even gave us suggestions for car rental, and interesting sites around the lake. The breakfast included in the price was just what we needed to start our day. At the end of our stay, Eli kindly invited us to leave our bags in our room after checkout and allowed us to use the room for a shower before our departure in the evening. Now that's customer service! The hotel is located next to a convenient bus stop for getting to and from the centre of town. Or, it's only a 15-20 min walk. Rent a car in Tiberias for getting around the lake, and securely park your vehicle at the Berger's free parking lot. We highly recommend the Berger on your trip through the Galilee.

wonderful experience in tiberias staff were very helpful. room very confortable

The signage is terrible. It was hard to find because the signs were behind trees. Once we got in it was very nice. Breakfast was good. The room was clean and had space. Very reasonable price.

Mr Berger and his staff was extremely helpful and friendly! He gave me useful advice what to see and how to get to places around the Sea of Galilee just in two days. He even checked timetables for me how to get to the Ben Gurion airport late in the evening! The room was simple but very clean with a nice little balcony. Breakfast was excellent. The hotel is located about 20 minutes walk from the center of Tiberias. A bus stop is in front of the hotel. I can warmly recommend Berger hotel to everyone travelling in the area.

We are a family - 2 adults 2 kids and we got not just one room but 2 bedrooms and tiny kitchen and balcony - so an appartment
