Where to Stay in Tel-Aviv ? – The Best Zones for the Hotel in Tel-Aviv

Look at the following Map, with the zones mentioned on this page :

The vast majority of the hotels are located near the beaches, so don’t worry about that. Most of the hotels are also close to the main shopping area of Tel-Aviv and to the city nightlife. There are no really bad neighborhoods to avoid in town, except maybe the central bus station at night, but there are no hotels there.
Anyway, before choosing a place to stay, read opinions of travellers about specific hotels in Tel-Aviv. For Hostels, see later on.

Advantages:

  • More relaxed compared to the central part of Tel-Aviv (everything is relative, Tel-Aviv is not an enormous busy city like London)
  • Near the Yarkon park
  • Near the Tel-Aviv Port leisure area
  • Near cool beaches like Metzizim

Disadvantage :

  • You will probably need to use some kind of transport in order to enjoy the main city nightlife which is in the center and south of the city. Also during daytime you may need transport because most tourist attractions are in the center and south of the city (You can also walk, of course).

How many days should I stay in Tel-Aviv ?

Tel-Aviv is not big and it doesn’t have famous monuments that are a “must see” for tourists. On the other hand, Tel-Aviv is a pleasant city to stay with nice beaches, parks, cafés, people and nightlife. I would say that 2 days is a minimum to get the spirit of Tel-Aviv. In 2 days you can do some of these activities during the day and go to the nightlife spots during the nights.
