- noga (9/5): - המיקום היה מעולה והצוות איכפתי במיוחד , היה נקי אבל עוד טיפה ניקיון היה מושלם
- זקוטו (10/5): -
- Ailyn (1/5): - Nothing it's so dirty It's good the location but the place is not good it's dirty
- ahmd (8/5): -
- Gavriel 17 (5/5): -
- John (4/5): - Location - Centrality to connecting bus routes to various surrounding points of interest. Privacy and security issues need review for improvement. Stresses of the then current security situation were factors in my evaluation and decision to check out early.
- SERGEY (7/5): -
- Alwksei (6/5): -
- Florian (9/5): -
- Diane (10/5): The Kinneret was so beautiful and the hostel provided all I needed to make my stay memorable enjoyable and accomplished - Staff was friendly and helpful. View from room beautiful!
Convenient location. They also had everything i needed for a nice safe place to stay. ——-
- אתי (5/5): - The place wasn't clean
No hot water in the shower
We saw insects in the room and below our beds
We were really disappointed, we weren't expecting much
But definetly not this
- Tom (3/5): -
- Joonas-Kuldar (7/5): -
- Addison (10/5): Excellent!!! - Clean, friendly staff, and in an excellent location! There's no issues with this location. It's not supposed to be high-end luxury, and as an affordable hostel, it's excellent!
- שרית (2/5): -
- Jetha (5/5): We enjoy very much... - Everything!
- עידן רפאל (10/5): - צוות ההוסטל מקסים וזמין לכל שאלה ובקשה, עונים באדיבות, באכפתיות ובנחמדות מכל הלב.
ההוסטל נקי ומסודר. השירותים והמקלחות נקיים.
המטבח נקי ומסודר.
האווירה הכללית נעימה ומזמינה.
מיקום מרכזי ומאוד נגיש ויחד עם זאת שקט ונעים.
- Volk0v (10/5): -
- הנמן (9/5): לילה שקט - אירע שהגעתי מאוחר מאוד כשלא היה אף אחד כבר לקבל אותי אולם בכ"ז שמרו לי מפתח לחדר במקום מסתור ובאתי ולקחתי.
- Fred (9/5): Great!! - The property was good and well organized They did not heavy blankets for covering ourselves while sleeping and it was really cold.
- Masha Glezerov (9/5): -
- Benjamin (9/5): -
- Faith ♡ (10/5): - The bed and the kitchen was so much fun and cozy :) I felt the best :) All was great!!!
- Joël (10/5): - Le manager est très sympa et attentionné. Le lieu est central, près du lac, avec des chambres et installations bien pensées. La pluie nous a empêchés de profiter du rooftop. Dommage ! La cuisine pas super propre
- Thiru14 (8/5): - Good Hispitality
- Enoch Daniel (8/5): Great Location and fairly clean with a good hostel vibe! - Location, access to a kitchen, lounge etc. Showers could have doors instead of curtains.
- Perry (9/5): Great value - Friendly staff. Quiet. Clean sheets and towel. Great shower. Great location. Great WiFi
- Sergio (7/5): -
- Pawel (10/5): - Die Lage,
die Sauberkeit,
die super Küche!
- Ronny (5/5): -
- SillyCookie (6/5): -
- Gasper (7/5): Has a potential but with better maintenance - The hostel is located right in the center of Tiberias, with plenty of parking spaces in front. The hostel itself feels quite peaceful; on the second floor, there’s a shared kitchen and some common areas, and the rooftop terrace with a view of the Sea of Galilee is particularly beautiful. The rooms are simple but equipped with air conditioning and a refrigerator. Despite the very friendly staff, the biggest issue with the hostel is probably cleanliness — at least by Western European standards.

- Pui Hung (9/5): -
- Andrew (6/5): -
- Yael (6/5): - it was not clean at all.
- Faith ♡ (10/5): My best stay ever :) - The vibe, the wall paintings and the kitchen :) All was great for me ;)
- צופיה (7/5): - כללי היה טוב טלוויזיה לא עובדת
- ilan (2/5): - לצערי ,אין משהו חיובי ראוי לציין החדרים לא נקיים מספיק לצערי , מחלקים מצעים ואתה צריך לגשת ולעשות זאת - זו טרחה מיותרת .
מה שיותר מסוכן , השמיכות חורף שבחדרים,בצבע כחול ככה ,לא כובסו המון זמן ,והמון אורחים כבר התכסו בהם ,ולכן יש בהם ריחות לא נעימים ,של זיעה , כתמים ,לא היגייני ואף מלא חיידקים,פשוט מסוכן לציבור השמיכות הללו שלא מכבסים ( אולי פעם בשנה )
המטבח ,כלי המטבח שמצפים שהאורחים ישאפו אחריהם ,בהתאם ובאופן לא מפתיע ,מלוכלכים ולא נקיים ,עם מלא חיידקים, כי טבע האדם הממוצע הוא לשטוף כלים בצורה הכי פחות נקייה ,כי הוא יודע שלא הוא ישוב להשתמש בהם ,אלא מישהו אחר
" שיאכל אותה "
- Hanan (5/5): -
- Hagit (5/5): - המיקום מצויין ומרכזי, יש חניה נוחה ליד, המארחים נחמדים. המקום לא נקי ולא מתוחזק, בחדר הייתה מראה על הרצפה (לא תלויה, היה צריך להתכופף לרצפה כדי להשתמש בה) הקירות מלוכלכים ודורשים צבע דחוף, כשהגעתי לחדר המיטות לא מכוסות והכל נראה מלוכלך (כל הכריות והשמיכות מוכתמות), קיבלתי סדין ביד והייתי צריכה לשים בעצמי את המצעים, חדר האוכל היה מטונף והקפה בסיסי, הצינור במקלחת היה קרוע והזרם עף לכל הכיוונים. בקיצור למקום יש פוטנציאל טוב אבל חייבים דחוף לטפל בתחזוקה שלו.
- Amir (9/5): - Понравилось месторасположение.
Примерно 500 метров от супермаркетов,300 метров от озера,200 метров рт автобусной станции Понравился персонал,по моей просьбе сразу поменяли номер Немного испортило настроение то,что из холодильника на кухне у меня пропали 3 бутылки воды и некоторые продукты. Но это не вина хостела
- Xuan (8/5): -
- Greenfield (7/5): A very solid hostel with commendable management. - I was very impressed with Tiberias Hostel. I had a problem with Booking.com adding an exorbitant bill when I added an extra night through their website. The hostel was very patient and trusting by giving me time to sort out the problem rather than making me pay the raised price up front. Beware of "changing dates" on Booking.com because they don't tell you how much it will cost and bill you after they get the OK from the property BEFORE asking you to confirm. In any case I am very grateful to Tiberias Hostel for not making my life miserable because of the technical issue. There was no soap in my bathroom, working batteries in the TV remote control, or bath towel in my room when I arrived. However, the staff took care of all of these issues within 24 hours of my notifying them.
- Lale (8/5): -
- Ulrike (9/5): - Tolle Lage, nettes Personal. Gutes Zimmer.
- Jürgen (7/5): -
- Robyn (10/5): Great times in Tiverias - Great facility- comfortable rooms with view of the Kinneret. Helpful and friendly staff. Love the rooftop patio!!! Cold water filter in lobby. Close to the beach, transit, and hikes. N/a
- Roope (10/5): -
- יעקב (8/5): -
- Deborah (7/5): This was an affordable stay with friendly staff, but needs some renovation. - The frig seal was not working, and the frig was also unbalanced, so it was leaking. The kitchen facilities were almost non-existent. Needs at least a microwave, more coffee and tea supplies, milk/creamer, and more mugs. A proper kitchen, even a small one, would be good. Hostels are expected to provide some self-catering facilities.
- Ilan (6/5): - O hotel é muito bem localizado, com um bom ar condicionado e cama confortável num quarto grande.
- Jagdish (5/5): - Nothing No comment
- Daphné (7/5): Good - AC. Good price. Helpful stuff. Sanitary situation wasn't good at all.
No privacy courtains on the beds. No ac in common areas. Also, and this is not the fault of the property, but shady people around sometimes.
- שני (9/5): Superb - The host was very nice and thoughtful and caring.
He was friendly and granted anything we asked for.
- Chang (8/5): The shower curtain holding bars are broken needed to be replaced for better use is broken - Location is excellent in the town center very convenient for free travelling!!
- Dias (8/5): Very good -
- Raj (8/5): Almost satisfied - Sofa and bed are perfect Washing hand soap should be kept on bathroom
- A. (10/5): - Was clean, nice staff and a good place to stay in Tiberias .
- Levin (10/5): Comfortable, Clean, and Welcoming - We've become regulars here thanks to Kobi (קובי)!
Every time we visit the north, we choose this place because of the incredible hospitality—and most of all, because of Kobi (קובי). While the entire staff is kind and professional, Kobi truly goes above and beyond. From the spotlessly clean rooms to his thoughtful attention to detail, he makes sure every part of our stay is perfect. He helped us with everything for Shabbat and gave fantastic recommendations for places to visit and eat. He’s the reason we keep coming back—and why we’ll continue to! Highly recommended!
- Kornstein (10/5): Exceptional - It was great as a hostel, the owner was incredibly helpful and willing
- Eliezer (5/5): Passable -
- Nora (10/5): - La atención fue excelente. La ubicación está muy bien. La cocina, limpia y equipada.
En lo personal, yo tuve problema con la cerradura del cuarto. Me costaba mucho abrir.
Todo lo demás muy bien.
- Justin (8/5): Very good -
- Aviv (10/5): Exceptional - Great hostel. The best and probably the only one in Tiberias. Super prime location. Close to the beach and seafront promonade.
Restaurants, supermarkets and public transport nearby. And they have an amazing rooftop and communal area.
The staff is kind.
- Deepak (9/5): It's a great hostel! - It's a great hostel with good interiors exteriors, rooms and the kitchen. The location is great with an amazing roof lounge
- Emprehss (10/5): Tiberias Hostel is such a special place and I will hold the memories I made there for life, God willing. - Price, location, staff, rooftop terrace and community. That I couldn’t stay longer!
- Entao (9/5): Good price value and very near the bus station and Sea of Galilee. - Good location in Tiberias.
- Mirella (8/5): Content - The place was ok,but the customer service was awesome. The location
- Aleksandr (10/5): The best place for affordable and high-quality accommodation in Tiberias. - Very convenient location of the hostel. Two minutes from the bus station. Kinneret is a 2-minute walk away. There are a lot of interesting hiking locations in the vicinity of the city. Mount Arbel, Mount Berenice, Hamat Tiberias hot springs and much more. Public transport is inexpensive
and at a very good level. Everything is clear and accessible.
All shops are within a radius of 300 meters. Great friendly atmosphere in the hostel. I stayed in a separate room. The room has a very nice separate bathroom. A large wardrobe for suitcases and clothes. A very comfortable bed. I slept very well. Small fridge, TV, air conditioning. Everything you need for a comfortable stay. There is also a separate room with washing machines and a place to dry clothes. There is a great terrace on the roof of the hostel where it is very pleasant to spend evenings with friends. Excellent hostel for a comfortable stay! I will definitely come back again.
- Jerusalem (8/5): Very good - Group Some people there who stayed were messy in kitchen
- Leah (8/5): Good location - Good space room , convenient kitchen and location
Kind staff.
- Mordehai (9/5): nice overnight spot perfecvtly located at very fair price - centrally located, on large parking, easy access with code all's good
- Jamie (8/5): The hostel was great, and the staff were very welcoming - I stayed at Tiberius Hostel for three nights. The staff at the hostel were very welcoming and hospitable. They offered me food and welcomed me to sit with them for dinner. The location is perfect for seeing the sites around the Sea of Galilee and is very affordable. The hostel has a roof that looks out across the Sea of Galilee, which is perfect to relax. The place was clean, and everything was in its right order. There isn't a bad word I could say about it. I would recommend booking this hostel if you are planning on staying in Tiberius or in the surrounding areas
- Netzer (10/5): Exceptional -
- Vieira (8/5): Very good -
- Senirusi (8/5): Very good - Lovely
- Pavel (9/5): Superb -
- Juan (7/5): Good -
- Richard (10/5): Exceptional -
- Debra (8/5): Decent place to stay while looking for old kibbutz friends, close to market, shops and supermarket. - The hostel is easily reached down the same street as the bus station heading towards the Sea of Galilee. A pin is needed for the front door. Check in was quick and easy I had managed to ring them about my eta from the bus but apparently got the wrong number. The kitchen/dining room is large and well-stocked with cooking equipment. The rooftop is a lovely place to sit, socialize and enjoy the view. There's a clothes line and electrical sockets. The location is central and a short walk from Kinneret. Everybody including staff and other guests were friendly and helpful. Luggage must be dragged up stairs. The dorms are quite small and cleaning was sporadic due to minimal staff because of the war, when I was there.
- Jens (4/5): Not good - The beds are bad and the cleaning is very bad.
- Yuval (8/5): Very good -
- Ery (10/5): Exceptional -
- Yvonne (7/5): Good -
- Tom (10/5): Exceptional -
- Desiree (10/5): Not to miss! - This hostel is amazing! Great people, awesome views, clean, and they have a big screen tv and a pool table. The terracenis my favorite part overlooking the city and the Sea of Galilee.

- Desiree (10/5): Perfect Stay! - This place is super clean with great staff! It has a large kitchen and dining room as well a fun terrace overlooking the Sea of Galilee on one side with mountains on the other. LOVE this place! I had no issues here, only had good times and met new friends. I will be back.
- Leon (3/5): It was a cheap place to stay and the experience reflected that. - Clean room with individual ac unit that easily fit our family of 6. Hallways and bathrooms were sweltering hot. No elevator.
Another group staying was very rowdy boys who kept using the girls restroom, making my daughters very uncomfortable in leaving the room.
- Jose (10/5): - Very nice people and the price was great! Good air conditioning!
- Tamir (10/5): Exceptional - Staff was all super friendly and helpful. There was a very inviting atmosphere with a user friendly kitchen and a relaxing rooftop with a beautiful view. Our bathroom was slightly dirty when we arrived but this was immediately resolved.
