Hadar Geula is great, or Goldy's in Ezras Torah is even better.

Has anyone gone to this new hotel called Litov for Shabbos? I'm going this week and wondering what to expect.
Update: Shabbos there was very nice. The hotel is new and clean and the food was ok. I would call it very Israeli. Shabbos there for a couple is $180 plus 70nis pp per meal which if your not looking for a beautiful luxury Shabbos then this is perfect. Here are some pics of the hotel:
