Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Staff went above and beyond to accommodate me. I asked for a late check-out of 3pm knowing that they would reject it or at the very best they would agree to one hour or so past the 11am check out time. They allowed my request with no additional fees. Each time I pulled up to the hotel, they came out and made sure I had a proper parking place. I left my jacket in the hotel after I left. When I called them, they immediately went up and retrieved my jacket and kept it until I got back three days later. Overall, I had not experienced such friendly accommodating staff before. When I go back to Jerusalem, I would not go anywhere else.

Hotel 3 estrelas sem muitas expectativas!!

Hotel fica a poucos km da cidade velha, muitas excursões chegando, estacionamento limitado, atendimento apenas suficiente para atender, quarto tamanho razoável, camas de solteiro pequenas, lençóis e edredon muito pequenos, toalha também de tamanho reduzido. Restaurante e espaço para café da manha sempre reservados para as excursões, tivemos de jantar nos bistrôs do lobby. Café da manhã normal sem muitas variedades. Pelo valor pago alto, mas na média dos hoteis de Jerusalém.

Hotel pulito e di buona qualità. Posizione non lontanissima dalla Città vecchia ma un po' faticosa da raggiungere a piedi. Nei dintorni purtroppo non c'è granché.

Large modern hotel with generous lobby and outdoor terrace for casual seating in various configurations suitable for business encounters or casual work. Lobby bar adds to the amenity as does a restaurant and large breakfast room opening onto the lobby. Rooms are spacious, all south facing rooms have balconies with table and chairs with views over the city. Location on hillside is more remote from Old City, within a 20 minute or so walk. Closer tourist options are available.

Hotel is well located, clean and pleasant, not luxurious. I was always glad to get “home” to the hotel after a long day of sightseeing. The staff was very friendly responsive to any need. The food was very good—our group had breakfast and dinners at the hotel. I stayed an extra night which is why I used Expedia.
