Beachfront Hostel

Tel Aviv


The beachside location is the only reason to stay at this rather rundown hostel opposite Jerusalem Beach. It has an array of dorms and rooms – some with views and private terraces – and a rooftop bar. Breakfast is not included. In desperate need of makeover, the Beachfront is redeemed by being the only hostel on the seafront.
