I agree that for people who like trains, the experience is important :) During the night you can take bus 205 to Hof HaCarmel station to Merkaz HaCarmel. From Merkaz HaCarmel it's a short walking distance to Nof and Dan Panorama hotels, and about 15 minutes to Har HaCarmel (go downhill on Derech Hayam street).
If you don't want to walk, take a taxi from Hof HaCarmel station. It will cost 45 sheqels. To save money and effort, please print this document: http://wikimania2011.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Taxi_Prices.pdf Print it in any case, even if you don't currently plan to take a taxi from the train station.
