The Jerusalem Hotel is a family managed hotel with a personal and friendly service. Set just 450 metres from the Damascus Gate, it is housed in an elegant 19th-century Arabic mansion. The authentic Arab architecture of the last century has been retained and accentuated in the arched windows, high ceilings, cool stone flagging and secluded vine garden. The thick stone walls cut from creamy Jerusalem stone, have been exposed and pointed with traditional Arabic plaster. Rooms and lounges are timelessly decorated with antiques adding an eastern oriental inspiration leading the imagination of guests into the wonders of Jerusalem's vast history. Rooms are timelessly decorated with antiques that are inspired by eastern culture and traditions. Each of our 14 rooms has its own character partly due to the nature of the architecture and partly because of the uniqueness of each room's furniture. All furniture is carefully hand carved with formations inspired by early Islamic and Andalucian designs. Each bed, closet, bureau, mirror, chair and side table offer additional details that further differentiate each room. The Garden restaurant is an ideal place to relax, sip a cup of coffee, have a snack or enjoy a full Palestinian meal. The design aspects of the garden simulate a traditional Palestinian village. The trickling sound of the water spring and the airy shade of the "Vine" pergola draw guests into a unique and comfortable ambience. Sweet and savoury items are served daily at the buffet breakfast, and the restaurant specialises in international and oriental cuisine. Free private parking is available at the property, which is a 5-minute walk from East Jerusalem Central Bus Station. Staff can organise tours around Jerusalems Old City, and Ben Gurion International Airport is 40 minutes drive away.
