    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!)

    This was a great place to stay during my time in Bethlehem, and the family was very friendly. I was going to a conference across town, and one of the hostel managers actually was willing to carpool with me back and forth. I came away feeling like a new family friend.

    Nothing to report here. I had a great time here.

    An incredibly nice family runs the place, and I felt at home with them during my stay. The mother gave me cactus juice upon my entry, and this was the first time I found out you could juice a cactus. They were helpful in giving recommendations to nearby eating places and such. I highly recommend them.

    Nothing to dislike but the door is locked before midnight so if you’re a night owl like me mightn’t be suitable

    Lovely spacious room , friendly hostel owner and location close to nativity square . A pleasure to meet Anton , Ellen , Daniel and Paul . Loved the spacious terrace with view as well and short walk ( uphill ) to Nativity Square

    Location was excellent. Just 10 minutes walk to Church of Nativity and Bethlehem Peace Center. My room was very big with lovely balcony. The rates were extremely reasonable. The owners were very kind As a solo traveller I felt extremely safe in Bethlehem. I highly recommend House of Peace as a base in Bethlehem. Dani the owner offers the best guided tours, so educational. Included Refugee Camp, Banksy Hotel, The Separation Wall among others. He will customise a tour to suit. Amazing and educational. I would love to return.

    so, getting to Bethlehem is hard with the large wall. They should have a standard message with bus times and a warning “you must walk after 8 pm” Taxi should only drive one way but they make exceptions at night Anyone getting into Bethlehem after 8 pm needs a plan ( save map to phone)

    The Peace House has great energy! It was full of nice people and Christian pilgrims! Not far from the bus; up a large hill! The upper deck is wonderful for reflection!
