Tel aviv hotel points booking?

[forums123]

Looking for a kosher hotel preferably on the beach but not mandatory for a weekend in August. Are there any that tend to have good point redemptions or good value using Amex travel or anything similar? Cash price for the good ones is around $500 a night plus additional $ for meals.

Setai with FHR credits is the best deal

Setai with FHR credits is the best deal

Ok. Thx... any suggestion which room category to book? I know with FHR if you book one category they can't upgrade you to a different category, so is there a particular room type that would offer the best value in terms of potential FHR upgrade?

Any other booking tips? Do you remember the approximate cost of shabbat meals?

Friday night dinner is 450 NIS adult/250 child, including VAT, so ~20% less if you aren't Israeli.

They don't serve Shabbos lunch but breakfast is until 11-12.

I would book the lowest available and tip the check in staff, they're very generous with upgrades. The executive suites (534 & 634) have a far superior layout than the panoramic suites on the 7th floor and IMHO are preferable despite the inferior views.
