Central Boutique Hotel

If you go to Jerusalem I would recommend this hotel. Just off Jaffa Str which leads you straight to the Old City about 500 metre away. There are restaurants and shops all around. Get the better room which is still inexpensive for Israel which has a little fridge and tea making facilities. Very clean and Gabriel the owner has been the most helpful guy. We hired a car and went to Bethlehem without any problems. You have to just say no to all the taxi drivers telling you that it can’t be down. Get insurance and your good to go. We have driven to Palestine to the Dead Sea and Masada. So don’t listen to the media about this country as we have found it just great. Enjoy if you go there.

This place was exactly as advertised - nice rooms and very clean. Not the biggest rooms but that's the trade-off for being so well located. It's about 10-15 minute walk into the old city which is fantastic, lovely pedestrian friendly environment around, straight onto the tram, about 20 minutes walk to the excellent Mahane Yehuda market and some nice places to eat and drink on the street next to the hotel. The guys that run the place were really friendly and helpful too. Main downside was just that it can be quite noisy at night as its a bit of a night spot, but they provide ear plugs, and with those in we slept perfectly.
