This hotel is located close to the lake shore near the historical center of Tiberias. It occupies several buildings, and the rooms in the old Doctor House, despite probably having old-fashioned interior facilities, are, in my opinion, preferable as they fully capture the atmosphere of the place. The hotel offers excellent views of the Kinneret (the Sea of Galilee), the Holon Heights on the opposite bank, and lush greenery in the hotel’s garden, creating a memorable impression. The property features its own pool and spa facilities, including various massage treatments. It also boasts excellent dining options in the hotel restaurants and wine bar. The service is of a high standard. Overall, it’s a good choice for a short vacation and a convenient base for exploring the Galilee region.

We just returned home from Israel where we spent three nights of our trip a the Scots Hotel in Tiberias. It's a beautiful historic property with several separate stone buildings. Our room itself didn't have a view of the sea but the hotel is situated right across the street from the Galilee so every time you walk out onto the lushly landscaped grounds you can admire the view of the sea. The pool area is gorgeous as well. Across the street there is also a promenade you can walk on with some shops, etc. We stayed in the building called "Doctor's House" on the second floor. It was so pretty and sweetly decorated in accordance with the style of the time (a comfy four-poster king bed, hardwood furniture, a divan and table as well as a desk). There's a Nespresso machine in the room as well as a filtered drinking water machine that dispenses hot and cold water. The bathroom was nice and spacious. We really enjoyed the included breakfast and dinner buffet every day which was quite excellent. There was a huge variety of food and everything was delicious. The dining area was spacious and tranquil. We only encountered a larger tour group on one night of our stay. The rest of our time there we only only saw independent travelers. Even on the night that the larger group was there, it wasn't too crowded. There are three large seating areas. Service was always professional and friendly, from the front desk to housekeeping to the bellmen. Everything was as it should be. We really loved our time at The Scots. We're very glad to have stayed there as we had heard from friends that there are not very many nice hotels in the Galilee area. This one was perfect and we would definitely recommend!

“Unusual Hotel with an Interesting History. Beautiful Propery.”

Tiberias is a dump of a city but we stayed there as a jumping off point for four days of touring in the North with a private guide. We chose the Scots because it seemed to be the best option out of all the hotels. The property is beautiful, restful and peaceful. The pool is fabulous!! We stayed in … more

Tiberias is a dump of a city but we stayed there as a jumping off point for four days of touring in the North with a private guide. We chose the Scots because it seemed to be the best option out of all the hotels. The property is beautiful, restful and peaceful. The pool is fabulous!! We stayed in a sea-view room in the Doctor's House. The room was large and so was the bathroom. However, the bed was AWFUL and extremely hard. We complained to everyone and all they could do was give us an extra bed bad, which didn't help at all. For a hotel that is expensive, it is inexcusable that they don't have memory foam toppers. We had dinner and breakfast at the hotel. The food was better than expected (good wine list) but not great. The dining room is depressing, the music dreadful and the atmosphere does not encourage you to linger or have a leisurely meal.
