I am a travel agent and I am looking for a hotel for one of my clients. He will be in Eilat from Aug 1-11. He wants to do a lot of diving and maybe a couple of other day excursions. Can anyone recommend an economy hotel (he does not want a big resort type hotel) that would be convenient for that?

Thanks for your assistance.

Any hotel in Eilat is suitable for him as Eilat is very small.

I beg to differ. Try and choose something on the outskirts of Eilat, like the Isrotel Ambassador. With all the equipment it might be quite a job to move from one side of Eilat to the other especially if you have no car.

Hotel Reef can be a good choice for your client. It is a modest hotel, nothing fancy but still nice, right on the beach next to the scuba diving center.

The Isrotel Red Sea Hotel, formerly Ambassador, has a dive center on site but you do have to cross the road with heavy equipment to get to the sea. However acros the road on the beach is Aquasport, probebly the best dive club in Eilat, they have a pick up service from all the hotels so you don't realy have to stay in the Coral Beach Area.

The Reef hotel is a small comfortable hotel on the beach but it has two big telephone anteneas on the roof and this can not be healthy.

Hi there

Just came back from an 8 day stay at the ISROTEL AMBASSADOR, - in Hebrew the name Yam Suv appears on the walls - but the invoice shows the Isrotel Ambassador - their website shows Istrotel Ambassador. Check the reviews on the Isrotel Ambassador on Tripadvisor. Rated number 2 hotel in Eilat by readers at the moment.

We had a marvellous stay there, and their Dive shop is worldclass. It's not a flashy place, and divers flock there.

You could do worse!
