MoreWe stayed in the Hashimi hotel in January 2020. Located in the old city it's in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the markets. The hotel entrance immediately takes you up a staircase above all the noise. So you never hear the street below you. The closest gate to the old city is the Damascus Gate where it is easy to get a cab to bus should you wish to venture further. Close by are excellent restaurants and all manner of shops. The Al Aqsa complex is literally a 7 minute walk from the front door so getting to and from the mosque is a doddle. The hotel is spotlessly clean. My wife is a bit of a clean freak and if she feels comfortable you can be rest assured its clean. The hotel staff are all incredibly welcoming and friendly as are all the Palestinians we interacted with during our stay. The manager is a very learned and respected man who literally could not do enough to make sure we were looked after. We stayed in the a newly refurbished room which was very comfortable, brightly lit and did I mention clean? Our package included breakfast and dinner. Breakfast is your typical buffet affair with all manner of fresh offerings. There is also an omelette station where you will receive a very large omlette cooked to perfection every morning. Dinner was also excellent. Day 1 was a variety of cooked meats, bbq style. Day 2 was a really nice rice and chicken dish. Served with a salad. Everything we ate was really really good. Tea, coffee and water are available 24/7 in the lobby. The roof terrace has the most amazing view of the Al Aqsa complex, postcard worthy. Things to note Jerusalam is a very old city, there are lots of steps, the paving blocks have been worn smooth so wear sensible comfortable shoes. We were never hastled nor did we feel unsafe at any time during our stay in the old city. Even when roaming around late in the evening.

MoreExcellent breakfast and very reasonably priced, not to mention the view of the old city! They allowed us to leave our luggage after checking out and the female receptionist was extremely helpful and provided us with all the necessary information. The only thing I didn't get is why we can't pay by card since we booked the stay and they charged us before checking in. They told us to pay in local currency or euro/dollars which would have been way more expensive than simply paying by card. That was the only inconvenience we had since all ATMs were out of order that day.
