Review: Dan Lounge Tel Aviv Airport (TLV)
The Dan Lounge at TLV is accessible via Priority Pass (there are actually two of these lounges in different parts of the airport).

There aren’t very many airport lounges at TLV, which is why I think this lounge was so crowded when I visited. Tons of people, to the point where I had to wait a little bit to find a seat. It’s also not a huge lounge–it’s just a long rectangular room–given how many airlines it’s serving.

The food options were not that extensive when I visited. There were a bunch of breads/pastries/cereals, there were a couple of cold foods like salads and yogurt, and that was about it. I had some oatmeal, which was about the only hot food I could find.

All in all, it might be marginally better than waiting in the terminal, but given how crowded the lounge was and the poor food options, this lounge isn’t really worth a visit.
Just come out and say it: this Lounge is a dump, one of the worst I’ve visited in a long time. Crowded, poorly provisioned and maintained.
Not a lounge worth visiting, I wish we had just stayed closer to some other food rather than getting ourselves to this lounge. Real pity, TLV is a big enough airport that I expected better
