Nof Hotel which in Hebrew means (Scenery/view/landscape Hotel) Is indeed a place where you have a great View all over Northern and easter Haifa, You can watch the port of Haifa below, and if there's a good visibility then you can easily see Akko (Acre). The Hotel is Located on Mount Carmel, just near the (relatively) new promanade. The rooms are nice though not posh, I think 3 floors are renovated and the other 2 or 3 are not, or at least thats how it was when i visited there so you might want to check this before booking. Staying at this area of Haifa is an advantage also for being close to many of Haifa attractions (not that tehre are too many) and the view is just great. Mind you during winter time its Cold out there.
