  City Center
  Downtown Jerusalem is the heart of the modern metropolis, with nightlife, dining and culture to rival any major city. The area is made up of several neighborhoods, including the colorful Mahane Yehuda Market, charming Nahalat Shiva, bustling Ben Yehuda and Yafo Streets. Each has its own unique personality and atmosphere that you won’t want to miss out on.
  
  South
  South Jerusalem is an up-and-coming area that has seen the development of numerous attractions in recent years, including the state-of-the-art Jerusalem Payis Arena, which hosts some of the biggest international musical acts and sporting events. It joins places like Emek Refaim Street, Malha Mall, the Biblical Zoo, Teddy Stadium, Gazelle Valley and Ramat Rachel tourism complex in making up an area that is particularly popular with families.
  
  West Jerusalem
  West Jerusalem includes some of Jerusalem’s most charming neighborhoods and interesting attractions. Head to the picturesque Ein Karem at the foot of the Jerusalem Hills for a day of nature, quaint shops and elegant dining with a view. And for an unbeatable cultural experience, check out the Museum District, home to the world-class Israel Museum, the Bible Lands Museum, Science Museum and much more.
  
  Old City
  The Old City of Jerusalem has been a center of culture, religion and history for thousands of years, from the time of the Judean kings and the Roman era through the times of the Islamic Empire to the modern State of Israel. Every brick and stone is teeming with history. No trip to the Middle East is complete without wandering through alleys of the bazaar, walking the ramparts and exploring the Old City’s rich history at the Western Wall, Church of the Holy Sepulchre, Temple Mount (Al-Aqsa) or Tower of David Museum.
  
  NEAR OLD CITY
  Not far from the Old City, you can find some of Jerusalem’s most vibrant entertainment and shopping centers. Mamilla Mall is just a few steps from Jaffa Gate and counts as one of the most luxurious shopping centers in the city, replete with high-end shops, Mamilla Hotel’s Akasha Spa and a collection of restaurants with amazing views. And if you follow Hebron Road, you’ll find the First Station cultural complex and the Yes Planet movie theater and entertainment center.

“Nice place to stay”

Reviewed on January 26, 2020By conallc2015Dublin, Ireland

Needed a place to stay at the last minute and luckily this place had a bed available. I really liked the location and more importantly, enjoyed the spacious rooftop and the friendly staff. Really couldn't have gotten a better deal anywhere else in Jerusalem

The hostel is right at the center of the old city which is great as most of the sites are just walking distance. The hostel is not well kept though, the reception doesnt do much. Within my 5 days of stay, only saw someone sweeping on my last day. The bathroom is neither clean. But...

Me and my friends stayed in this hostel for three nights. The owner is a funny guy with great selling skills and he offered us a better room for a good price. He was extremely nice to us and made sure we always remembered to come for dinner. The food wasnt high class but...

Me and my friends stayed in this hostel for three nights. The owner is a funny guy with great selling skills and he offered us a better room for a good price. He was extremely nice to us and made sure we always remembered to come for dinner. The food wasnt high class but great for such a price! All the sights were in walking distance - you really are in the heart of history. When we needed anything, staff was always happy to help.
