About This Place

Leonardo Inn Dead Sea is the entry-level option among the three Leonardo hotels at the Dead Sea, a 96 room, three star property set on a rise above the Ein Bokek resort strip. You book it for one reason: it typically carries the lowest rate of any Leonardo property in the area while keeping a pool, included breakfast, free Wi-Fi, and shuttle access to its four star sister hotels. The trade-off is distance. The hotel is not on the shoreline, and its facilities are deliberately lean compared with the resorts below it on the strip.

This profile covers what the hotel offers, what you give up, and who comes out ahead by booking it. For the wider field, see our guides to hotels in Ein Bokek and cheap Dead Sea hotels in Israel.

Leonardo Inn Dead Sea at a Glance

Leonardo Inn belongs to the Leonardo brand of the Fattal Hotel Group, which also runs Leonardo Plaza and Leonardo Club at the Dead Sea. The Inn sits above the Ein Bokek hotel strip, facing the water, with the commercial center and public beaches below.

Leonardo Inn Dead Sea offers 96 rooms on a hillside above Ein Bokek, and the official Leonardo Hotels site lists nightly rates from approximately 141 euros as of 2026, which typically makes the Inn the least expensive of the three Leonardo properties at the Dead Sea.

Rates move with season and demand, so treat that figure as a floor rather than a promise. Our overview of Dead Sea hotel prices explains how the market shifts across the year.

Rooms and In-Room Amenities

The official Leonardo Hotels listing centers on Superior rooms with large windows facing the Dead Sea, and the hotel describes the views and natural light as the rooms’ main asset. Expect clean, modest accommodation rather than resort styling.

Each room includes air conditioning, free Wi-Fi, a coffee and tea kit, television, and a private bathroom with a shower. The hotel also lists family rooms, though the narrow range of categories suits couples better than large families. Our full Leonardo Inn budget hotel review walks through the room experience in detail.

Dining and Board Options

Standard rates include a kosher dairy breakfast buffet, served from 7:00 to 10:30, with cheeses, pastries, and egg dishes. The main restaurant serves dinner daily with Israeli and international dishes, and dinner can be added as half board.

There is no full lunch restaurant on site, though the restaurants of Ein Bokek and the Dead Sea Mall are within walking distance. The hotel also operates a Bedouin style tent in its garden serving Bedouin cuisine, an unusual evening option for a budget property.

Pool, Solarium, and Spa Access

The outdoor pool area is the hotel’s social center, with a main pool, a separate kiddie pool, loungers, and hammocks under palms and thatched parasols. Pool hours run 7:30 to 17:00. The hotel also maintains a solarium with separate areas for women and men, which Leonardo Hotels describes as designed for heliotherapy in the Dead Sea’s unique sunlight.

Leonardo Inn Dead Sea has no full spa of its own, but the hotel’s official facilities page states that guests can use the spa at the nearby Leonardo Plaza Dead Sea for 25 shekels per person per day, payable at reception, keeping wellness access on the table at a budget rate.

If indoor mineral pools and daily treatments are central to your trip, compare the Leonardo Plaza Dead Sea directly, since you would be paying to commute to its spa anyway.

Beach Distance, Location, and Getting Around

The hotel is not beachfront. The free public Ein Bokek shoreline sits approximately 500 meters away, a longer walk than from most hotels on the strip, and the return leg climbs back up the hillside. Sunbeds and umbrellas are free in the main managed sections; our guide to Ein Bokek Beach covers the practicalities.

A shuttle links the Inn with Leonardo Plaza and Leonardo Club, the easy route to the beach, the Plaza spa, and the Club’s facilities. Confirm the current schedule at reception, since frequency varies.

Leonardo Inn Dead Sea stands roughly 17.5 kilometers from Masada National Park and 33 kilometers from Ein Gedi Nature Reserve, according to the official Leonardo Hotels listing, which places budget travelers within an easy drive of the two best known attractions on the Dead Sea’s Israeli shore.

Leonardo Inn vs Leonardo Club vs Leonardo Plaza

The three Leonardo properties cover three distinct budgets, and the differences are structural rather than cosmetic.

DeadSea.com’s profile of the Leonardo Club describes it as the only all inclusive resort at the Dead Sea, and our Leonardo Club review breaks down whether that format pays off. For the middle option, read the Leonardo Plaza review. To weigh the whole strip at once, use our Dead Sea hotel comparison.

Honest Trade-Offs and Booking Tips

Book the Inn if price is the deciding factor and you plan to spend your days at the beach, in the water, or out at Masada and Ein Gedi. It suits couples and solo travelers on short stays, and anyone treating a Dead Sea hotel as a base rather than a destination.

Skip it if you want a Dead Sea water pool, an on-site spa, or evening entertainment, all of which live at the sister properties or elsewhere on the strip. Guest scores reflect this positioning: a 3.4 rating across roughly 2,420 reviews on the deadsea.com profile as of 2026, respectable for the price class but well below the strip’s four and five star resorts.

Two practical tips. If you arrive on a Saturday or Jewish holiday, check-in moves to 18:00. And if your dates are flexible, compare the Inn against guesthouse style options such as the Neve Zohar zimmers, which compete at a similar price point in a quieter setting.

The math is simple: Leonardo Inn trades beachfront convenience for the lowest reliable rate under a known brand in Ein Bokek. Walk in expecting a clean base with a pool and a view rather than a resort, and it delivers exactly what it charges for.

The Wolfson Medical Centre

The Wolfson Medical health and beauty centre operates on site and is the property’s most distinctive feature: a specialised facility offering Dead Sea climatotherapy for psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, and other skin conditions under medical supervision. Treatment programmes typically run two to four weeks.

This is a different proposition from a hotel spa. If skin-condition treatment is the reason for the trip, the Inn works as a base in a way the resort properties do not, because the lower nightly rate makes an extended two-to-four-week stay far more affordable. Confirm current programme availability and pricing with the centre directly before booking.

Location and Surroundings

The Leonardo Inn sits on a hillside above the Dead Sea hotel strip in Ein Bokek, with panoramic views of the sea and the Moab Mountains. The Ein Bokek commercial area, Dead Sea Mall, and nearby restaurants are minutes away by shuttle or a short walk downhill. Masada National Park to the south and Ein Gedi Nature Reserve to the north are both within comfortable day-trip distance along Route 90. Ben Gurion Airport is approximately 160 kilometres away.

Frequently Asked Questions

How far is Leonardo Inn Dead Sea from the beach?

The public Ein Bokek beach is approximately 500 meters from the hotel, a longer walk than from most properties on the strip because the Inn sits on a hillside above it. The walk down is easy; the return is uphill. A shuttle to Leonardo Plaza and Leonardo Club offers a no-sweat alternative, so check the schedule at reception when you arrive.

Does Leonardo Inn Dead Sea have a spa?

No, the hotel has no full spa on site. It offers a gender separated solarium, and the official facilities page states guests can use the spa at the nearby Leonardo Plaza Dead Sea for 25 shekels per person per day, paid at reception. Travelers planning daily treatments or wanting the Plaza’s indoor sulphur and Dead Sea water pools should consider staying at the Plaza itself instead.

What is included in the room rate at Leonardo Inn?

Standard rates include a kosher dairy breakfast buffet served from 7:00 to 10:30, unlimited free Wi-Fi, use of the outdoor pool and kiddie pool, and free parking subject to availability. Dinner is served daily in the main restaurant and can be added as half board. There is no lunch restaurant, but Ein Bokek’s dining options are within walking distance, and the Bedouin style tent in the garden adds an evening alternative.

Is Leonardo Inn Dead Sea good for families?

It works for families on a tight budget: there is a kiddie pool, and the hotel lists family rooms among its 96 rooms. That said, the limited room categories and lean facilities make it a compromise for longer family stays. Families who want a kids club, a water park, and all meals included usually do better at Leonardo Club, the all inclusive sister property.

What are the check-in and check-out times?

Check-in is at 15:00 and check-out at 11:00 from Sunday to Friday. On Saturdays and Jewish holidays, check-in moves to 18:00 and check-out extends to 14:00, a schedule tied to Shabbat observance that applies at many kosher hotels in the region. Plan arrival timing accordingly, especially if you are driving from Ben Gurion Airport on a Saturday, and recheck the official Leonardo Hotels listing close to your travel dates.

What is the Wolfson Medical Centre at Leonardo Inn?

The Wolfson Medical health and beauty centre is a specialised on-site facility offering climatotherapy programmes for psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, and other skin conditions, using the Dead Sea’s mineral-rich environment under medical supervision. Programmes typically last two to four weeks. Contact the centre directly to confirm current programmes, medical requirements, and costs.
