Pros:

מיקום. בניין יפה. צוות שירותי שנתן מענה טוב לכל בקשותינו

Cons:

עיצוב חדרים אקלקטי. חדר מיושן. עבר שיפוץ זול. למשל דלתות אלומיניום מוזרות. אין ציפה לשמיכה רק סדין. מרפסת עם לשלשת יונים.

Pros:

First, we would like to say that the hotel is located in a wonderful place — just a few steps from the Mamilla Mall, the markets of the Old City of Jerusalem, and most importantly, all the holy sites: the Western Wall, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, and the Dome of the Rock. It is truly a unique and special location.

As for the hotel itself, you feel as though you are at home among family members. The owner is a noble, generous, and polite man who helps you with everything you need to make your stay unforgettable. Go up to the rooftop to see all of Jerusalem, or sit and enjoy a cup of coffee in the warm lobby — and remember, you are among family.

No matter what your religion is, this hotel embraces everyone and extends a hand of peace to all. It welcomes you and offers the highest level of hospitality so that you can make your pilgrimage to your sacred place of worship and visit the most important religious and historical sites, such as King David’s Tomb, the Via Dolorosa, or Al-Aqsa Mosque.

We will always choose this hotel whenever we visit Jerusalem.

נשוב לשם בעתיד הקרוב , בתקווה שהמצב המלחמתי יקבל תפנית וירושלים תשוב להיות מלאה בתיירים ומטיילים.
Pros:

במיוחד התיידדנו עם בעל המלון והבת שלו.
משפחה מאוד טובה וידידותית.

Cons:

נשמח לארוח הכולל לפחות ארוחת בוקר ירושלמית טיפוסית ומלון מלא באורחים מאושרים.
