Port Inn in Haifa I was thrilled with my stay here. It was incredibly clean, the staff was the definition of helpful and it was a great location (just ten to fifteen minutes walk from the bottom of the Bahai gardens and the German Colony). I highly recommend the Port Inn to anyone staying in Haifa.
Port Inn in Haifa I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at The Port Inn. i didnt want to leave! Rachel and Rita and the staff were very friendly, helpful, welcoming, and just generally lovely! The hostel itself is very clean and a nice welcoming environment. It was so nice to sit out in the garden and was a very good location in general. The cost of the accommodation was extremely reasonable considering all these wonderful factors, I would highly recommend The Port Inn as the place to stay on a visit to Haifa. I will go back on my next visit, soon i hope. also there is a really nice pub directly across the road called Elis.
Port Inn in Haifa I arrived after dark and as promised i was able to park my car. The area looks seedy but really it is just old. The rooms are lovely, clean, and filled with light. The staff were warm, welcoming, and extremely helpful. Breakfast was great -- there was no yogurt but when I asked for some it was immediately purchased. The Port Inn is close to rail, bus, and ferry station. The post office and shops are very close and you will have no trouble finding places to eat and drink. Beer and soft drinks, at reasonable prices, are available at the reception area. I will certainly return on my next visit to Haifa and would recommend it to anyone who asked.
Port Inn in Haifa Superb hostel -- the staff and owners are the friendliest, most helpful people you could ever wish to meet. Rooms are really well appointed by hostel standards, very clean -- superb communal room and outside seating area, well appointed kitchen. All in all a great deal better than many three-star hotels I've stayed in. Fantastic place.
Port Inn in Haifa I have not stayed at the Port Inn but I have several friends who have, and they liked it. The main comment I want to make for travelers who haven't been to Haifa (I have been several times and have stayed at hotels) is that the Port Inn is in an excellent location for visiting and seeing Haifa and points nearby. It's close to a main north-south train station, it's close to bus stops, it's a few minutes walk to Herzl Street where the buses and sheruts go to Acco and other areas north; and it's close by the Carmelit subway station, which is the fastest and cheapest way to get to the top of very steep Mount Carmel, as well as points in between (ask for a transfer, it might come in handy). It's an easy walk one direction to the Arab Quarter, where prices are good for food. It's an easy walk another direction to the renovated German Quarter (now not populated by Germans, who left decades back during the War) which is very nice and has trendy shops and restaurants and a spectacular view of
Port Inn in Haifa This place looks really sketchy from the outside, but it is great on the inside. The rooms are clean and well (very basically) furnished. The owners are very nice and will give you lots of advice on where to go and bus routes. The breakfast is also better than most hotels elsewhere in Israel. This place has a great location and you can walk almost anywhere. This place is strongly suggested and a great price.
