Hotels in Tiberias, Israel

Hotels in Tiberias, Israel
The focal point in Tiberias is the Sea of Galilee, a freshwater lake that is the main source of water for Israel. With its beauty and subtropical climate, the lake, which is surrounded by cliffs and steep hills, is Israel's most popular vacation area. Tiberias is one of Judaism's four holy cities, and many important historical sites dot the lake's shores. Outdoor enthusiasts will find much to do here, including miles of hiking trails and many scenic swimming spots on the lake's northeastern shore.

Gai Beach Hotel

This family-friendly hotel nestled on the Sea of Galilee offers beautiful views of the Golan Mountains. With 198 guest rooms and two suites, an entertainment program, beachfront property, a lakeside pool, gym, spa, bar and free parking, guests won't need to leave the property to enjoy their vacation.

The hotel's two dining rooms have panoramic lake views and serve gourmet meals inspired by a variety of cuisines. In the summer, BBQ dinners on the lake shore offer a tantalizing selection of grilled meats. End the day with a romantic evening stroll to watch the sunset over the lake.
