Located in Bethlehem and with St. Catherine's Church reachable within a 10-minute walk, House of Peace provides express check-in and check-out, non-smoking rooms, a shared lounge, free WiFi throughout...

This was an awesome stay. The family running House of Peace was incredibly hospitable -- we are so grateful for them! Among other things, they helped us coordinate a full weekend of activities in Bethlehem, curated to what we were interested in. The whole experience felt very personal and very at-home. (Also -- the House has a balcony with a beautiful view and seating for morning coffee/tea!)

Bethlehem City Hostel is located in Bethlehem, a 10-minute walk from Church of the Nativity and 0.7 miles from The Milk Grotto.

Elias, Host was most accommodating person I ever had! That was a pleasure to stay at his place. You have everything you need and it's just couple of steps from the best part of the city.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Very comfortable room. Clean and well furnished. Great location for exploring the neighborhood. Felt safe and secure during our very short visit. Staff were most accommodating, even arriving early to let us in and following up to ensure everything was okay. Will certainly return.

    A wonderful Hostel! The balcony with view of Bethlehem is just awesome. Everything is very spacious. The dorm room was comfortable and every bed has its own reading light and power socket. The location in Bethlehem is perfect and Bethlehem felt very safe to me. I recommend going there!

    This was my second stay at the hostel as it was one of the cheapest places to stay in Bethlehem for Christmas, and is located right near where the Christmas Eve parade starts. The host provided a traditional home-cooked Christmas Eve meal for a reasonable price.

    A fantastic hostel with a warm Palestinian welcome in a great location. Local bus stops are close by and the owner is very knowledgeable so it’s a great place to locate yourself if you want to travel to other areas in the West Bank. It’s also in a nice neighbourhood, so safe if you fancy heading out for food or drinks in the evening but has a good vibe within if not. Quite the Little Star of Bethlehem!
