THE REFURBISHED DAN PANORAMA JERUSALEM

We have always said that the Dan P was our temporary home in Israel. Once we moved to Israel in 2013, we pretty much did not need to stay at the hotel anymore. We did not, however, forget about that magnificent hotel. After staying there 19 times, almost always in the same room, by the way, we remain a friend of the hotel.

This week, we popped in to view the newly upgraded section of the hotel. What can we say except WOW!

The hallways in the refurbished wing have new rugs. There are new doors on the rooms. The walls, even, are beautifully done in earth tones.

Each room was gutted and rebuilt. Everything in those rooms is brand new. New beds, new bed spreads, new pillow shams, new, larger flat screen TV mounted on the wall. Brand new refrigerators in the rooms.

The bathrooms are amazing. First of all, the new lighting makes for a much better view in the mirror. Some rooms have tubs and showers, some have only a tub, and some only a shower. The bathrooms are large and comfortable.

The heat/air conditioning system is also new. No matter what the season, no matter what the outside temperature is, you can have either heat or AC as you wish it. Cold? Warm up the room. Warm? Turn on the AC.

Every room has new windows, and all of them have great views. What we especially liked is the fact that the hotel now offers FREE internet throughout the hotel, not just the lobby as in the past. There are also special handicap access rooms as well.

As we said: Wow!
