    Heating didn't work and the same maintenance clown responsible for that blocked the entire car park. Reception often unattended which could cause problems of access.

    Only a few minutes from Damascus gate, charming manageress, nice breakfast. Cheap by Jerusalem standards. Sells beers and wine

    I took tea for breakfast instead of instant coffee. I don’t drink instant. The elevator is tiny- enough for me and my small case. Many hotels in Jerusalem don’t have elevators- so this was a bonus.

    The location was perfect- 5 minute walk to Damascus Gate. The hotel has a very home like feel from caring staff to Fatima at the breakfast room. A chapel is on site. I had a shower late at night and also early morning- plenty of hot water.

    Jerusalem Old City stay in plligrims' guesthouse

    • Solo traveler
    • Single Room
    • Stayed 2 nights
    • Submitted from a mobile device

    It's a piligrims guesthouse and bishop's residence at the same time, and a functioning Catholic Cathedral. It's not and can't be a religion agnostic place (may be an issue for some guests). Rooms are lacking modern facilities like a computer table. I assume there are only single beds in the rooms by intent, it's not a luxury resort for a family vacation. Anyway, great experience for a solo traveller, city center location, super value and (let me stress it again) exceptional family-like guest care!

    A great value place in pedestrian proximity to the Old City and all the main attractions. VERY friendly staff. Full impression of staying in a family. Great breakfast included in the price and coffee.

    Location, service.

    Great location, very close Damascus Gate and Rail Laight Train. Quiet and paceful place, nice Chapel inside. And super view from the rooftop👌 Very, very nice service-I could have has an earlier breakfast(and it was always testy and local dishes). The price of accomodation with breakfast is great!

    There was no noise from a big machine in the space between the building next door but it stopped before the evening so all good.

    Great value for money. Close to the old town. Decent breakfast. Big surprise. Was too lazy to travel back to Tel Aviv so stayed in Jerusalem.

    At some stage when tourism etc picks up a little, it us probably due for some remodeling/updating.

    Lovely place, excellent location, fantastic staff. The place is perhaps a little tired - tourism has been devastated in Israel so there's not so much money available for remodeling - but it is clean, tidy and very comfortable. The staff go the extra mile and then some. Breakfast is great, and having a secure place to park a rental car is wonderful.

    While not unusual in Israel, some of the staff weren't exactly friendly. Not rude either, just not very welcoming. Some were very helpful and kind.

    The complimentary, Mediterranean-style breakfast was GREAT. A lot of variety and healthy options, like hummus, pickled veggies, wheat rolls, eggs, olives, salsa, potatoes, coffee, milk, and cereal. It definitely helped to start us off on a positive note each day. The views from our room to the Old City of Jerusalem were stellar. The Jerusalem lightrail train passes nearby, and there is a prominent stop within relatively easy walking distance. Also, a number of buses pass by on a main thoroughfare. (We were told this main street used to be the partition line between East and West Jerusalem. The hotel is on the east side in a mixed Christian and Muslim neighborhood. The opposite side of the street is mostly Jewish neighborhoods.) The room was plain, but clean and met our requirements for having a decent-enough place to stay during our week-long trip. An interesting fact about the property is that it hosts a beautiful chapel. It's super-close to the Garden Tomb site, and it's about a 5-10 minute walk, depending on how fast you're going, to reach the Damascus Gate of the Old City of Jerusalem. As a side note, a rocket attack from Gaza started during our stay. Rocket alarms sounded in our neighborhood. The stairwell of the hotel offered a solid place to shelter, but there isn't a dedicated bomb shelter.

    I booked last minute so maybe my room was facing the street. It was a little noisy with horns. But it did not impact my sleep. Was just something I noticed. I would stay here again.

    I liked the location, right by the garden tomb and near the Damascus gate. The breakfast was really amazing and the people working there were very kind. The room was very clean.
