Very disappointed that there was tons of noise outside my room and from the lobby in middle of the night. And the shower never got very hot. I asked to fix it but it was never fixed. Overall the staff was good and the location is great.

We wanted the light in our room to be shut off but it was a difficult task since the light was set to Shabbat mode. Unfortunately, we had the light on the whole evening and we couldn't sleep. We went and complained to the reception desk. As a courtesy, Yazen Atrash offered our family lunch which was an incredible experience. He also offered to give us a discount when we're ready to book another reservation. We are So Happy with the incredible service that Yazan offered us. We will definitely come again!

Great location. Amazing views. Excellent service at breakfast buffet which is impressive. Atta added his special touch in his personalized service at breakfast. Rooms are well appointed and nice in size. We walked to the old city and just soaked about Jerusalem so easily from this location. We look forward to returning.

We absolutely loved the David Citadel in Jerusalem! We highly recommend staying there because it’s the best location for shopping, restaurants and sightseeing. The staff went out of their way to spoil us, as it was our wedding anniversary, especially Sasha and Sonya. The breakfast each morning was superb, as was our room with a view of the swimming pool and the Old City.

Bad expérience for me. Uncomfortable bedding, slow service (50mn for an iron and ironing board) and unpleasant staff

The staff was extremely polite. We had a late flight out and they gave us an extended late checkout as a courtesy which they didn’t have to do. The staff was also very attentive to elderly guests at breakfast, anticipating their every need. Was very special to see.
