Icons Luxury Collection
A Timeless Icon on the Shores of the Sea of Galilee
We invite you to discover a place where history, landscape, and refined hospitality come together to create an authentic Israeli luxury experience. As a premier Sea of Galilee luxury hotel, Galei Kinneret is one of the iconic landmarks of Israeli hospitality. Established in 1946 by Lotte Eisenberg as one of the country's first luxury hotels, it was envisioned from the beginning as a destination that combined elegant hosting, breathtaking natural surroundings, and international standards of service. Over the decades, Galei Kinneret became a preferred retreat for prime ministers, government officials, cultural figures, and distinguished guests from Israel and around the world looking for the ultimate luxury hotel in Northern Israel.
The extensive restoration and renewal of the hotel in recent years was carried out with deep respect for its rich heritage. Today, Galei Kinneret seamlessly blends decades of hospitality tradition with contemporary comfort and thoughtful design. Its direct connection to a private beach on the shores of the Sea of Galilee, the Roman-style outdoor pool overlooking the water, and the heated indoor pool create an atmosphere of relaxation and tranquility that you would expect from a top luxury hotel in Northern Israel. GALEI Spa, one of Israel’s largest and most distinctive wellness destinations, offers a complete experience with relaxation areas, dry sauna, hammam, and treatment rooms.
The experience is complemented by LOTTE Restaurant, serving refined cuisine in an elegant lakeside setting. Guests can also enjoy a private beach bar, a fully equipped fitness center, meeting rooms, conference facilities, and a selection of beautifully designed rooms and suites. Most recently, the hotel unveiled Villa Pola, a new symbol of luxury featuring a private pool and direct access to the water, elevating the standard for a Sea of Galilee luxury hotel.
Galei Kinneret is more than a hotel. It is a living chapter in the story of the Sea of Galilee and Israeli hospitality. A place that honors its past while offering a sophisticated and deeply relaxing escape rooted in history, character, and a genuine sense of place.
The hotel welcomes guests aged 12 and above.
