Sam & Blondi Hotel

Sam & Blondi is a fantastic, cozy hotel in a perfect location on Shenkin Street. It is super convenient, with a great cafe and burger spot right next door. The service here is truly amazing. The staff goes above and beyond, especially Sam, who was incredibly friendly and helpful! He personally helped me in arranging a last-minute tour to Jerusalem and sorted out a complex ride to a dinner right afterwards. Highly recommended for the stellar service, comfortable room, and ideal location!

This hotel is great, with a perfect location on Historic Blvd in the heart of the city. The hospitality and service are world-class. If you want a bustling downtown experience with a newly renovated room and balcony, then this should be your place to stay.

I have been a returning guest at this hotel for several years, and it consistently exceeds my expectations. The service is outstanding, and the reception staff is the best - Shout out to Shirel and Samer for being awesome. The room is always tidy and clean, and the overall service is excellent. The location is perfect, right in the heart of Tel Aviv, and the breakfast is simply wonderful. Highly recommended!

Samer is an exceptional host. I have rarely met someone who makes each stay a pleasure. He remembers what I like and ensures that each stay is better than the previous one. He speaks many languages and relates to each and every person in a distinct and appropriate manner. He celebrates all faiths and cultures. He represents the very best of Israel!

The location couldn’t be better, right in the heart of lively Shenkin, just a short three‑minute stroll to Shuk HaCarmel and Nahalat Binyamin, two of our favorite spots to explore. The rooms were excellent, but what truly sets this hotel apart is the service. At reception, guests are treated to complimentary cold beer, wine, and even local arak, which was such a delightful surprise. There’s also a top‑notch espresso machine in the lobby for coffee lovers. The staff are incredibly welcoming, going out of their way to remember your name and the reason for your stay, which makes the experience feel personal and special. All in all, Sam & Blondi delivers not just comfort, but genuine hospitality - an unforgettable stay

The room is tiny and uses as a Mamad (safe room) so the window accordingly has iron shades and adds to the feeling of being in a shelter. The view contains sun heated boilers, roof tops and cellular antennas. We asked to switch to a room that is not a Mamad and got another one exactly the same except that in that room they put a wooden fence on the window. It’s a great option for times of war but not recommended for any other occasion.

I loved my stay at Sam and Blondi hotel in Tel Aviv. It’s located in a really exciting neighborhood. There is lots of great restaurants, coffee shops and shopping nearby. There is also a very popular market in close walking distance - Carmel Market. The price is very reasonable and the staff are extremely friendly. Samer in particular goes above and beyond to make every guest feel special. He will help you with any needs and makes you feel very welcome and taken care of.

We had a wonderful experience at Sam & Blondi. The boutique hotel is clean, stylish, and in a great location. Snacks and beverages available in the lobby. Delicious breakfast available in a cute and very popular cafe next door. They kept our luggage for the day after we checked out. And amazing full size towels! Most importantly, the staff was super friendly and helpful. Samer especially was incredibly helpful and accommodating. I definitely recommend this hotel.
