About the Mount of Olives Hotel

It may not be the fanciest in Jerusalem, but the Mount of Olives Hotel certainly has one of the best views in the city. Situated on the summit of the Mount of Olives, the family-run hotel overlooks the entire Old City from the Kidron Valley outward. For centuries, the building has served as a hostelry to the adjoining Church of the Ascension and is mere walking distance from many other holy sites including the Chapel of Ascension, the Garden of Gethsemane and Dominus Flevit. The building was renovated in 1960 and now includes 54 homey rooms, some of which afford a breathtaking view of the Old City. Still, part of building dates much further back, and it’s worth noting that at the far end of the building, just above the door to the kitchen, is one of the oldest surviving carvings of the pagan deity Baphomet. The Mount of Olives Hotel offers free WiFi and a complimentary breakfast.
