Although the building is nice, and is very well located, this hotel is filthy. We were greeted by cockroaches in the hallways and in our bathroom, as well as boogers stuck to the shower’s wall. Don’t stay here under any circumstance, until management makes some crucial changes
Mount Zion Hotel
About Mount Zion Hotel
Hugging the slopes of the Hinnom Valley directly across from the Old City walls is the Mount Zion Hotel. The boutique hotel is located in a 19th-century building that is defined by its quaintness and understated elegance.
The Mount Zion has 140 guest rooms including luxury suites as well as a range of amenities and facilities, including verdant public gardens, a swimming pool, indoor and outdoor Jacuzzis, a spa and a health club including a traditional hamam (Turkish bath).
The location of Mount Zion Hotel is ideal for excursions to both the holy sites of the Old City and the many attractions of the city’s center. The Cinematheque, one of Jerusalem’s essential cultural institutions, is right next door, as is the Menachem Begin Heritage Center.

MoreThis hotel has the potentialmof being the best hotel in Jerusalem. It has the best location, incredible history, and could easily be the best. However...... the hotel is rundown even by Israeli standards. The hotel is dated and in bad shape. The rooms are humid, the bath curtain moldy, service (if you can call it that) is non-existent. Employees are rude, know very little about service and will not offer help even if younask them for it. We found a nice big cockroach in our room. It was also filthy, humid, and dusty. And at $400 a night, any other hotel option is better.

MoreThe view of Mt Zion from the hotel was magic any time of day. The hotel is within walking distance of the Jaffa Gate and provides good access to virtually all parts of the old city. The pool is beautiful and secluded and especially welcome for relief from the Jerusalem sun. The breakfasts are wonderful and feature an amazing array of salads, fruits, cheeses, fresh orange juice and more. The staff was affable and helpful.
