Fabulous hotel with excellent breakfasts. Beautiful landscaping and stunning flowers with many places to sit and write or meditate. Rooms were clean and each had a desk. Good Lighting. Excellent staff. Close to visit many places including Masada and the Dead Sea. Will return!!
Ramat Rachel Hotel
About Ramat Rachel
Only a few minutes’ drive from the bustling Jerusalem city center and the Old City, among the tranquil fields of Kibbutz Ramat Rachel, stands the Ramat Rachel Hotel. The unique location – a kibbutz adjacent to the city – makes the Ramat Rachel Hotel the ideal place for those who prefer a quieter home-base with a country feel, but do not want to compromise on convenience and proximity to Jerusalem attractions.
The hotel offers a wide range of facilities for every possible activity: romantic getaways, family vacations, private events, professional conferences, tours, and sports and leisure activities. The hotel’s restaurant serves three kosher meals during the day. There is also a coffee bar open till midnight at the hotel’s lobby, a synagogue, gift shop, and the Kibbutz’s supermarket where you can have a “old times” shopping experience.

The experienced staff will help you to design precisely the event you envision and will accompany you every step of the way.

MoreI stayed here for almost 3 weeks, while taking part in a training program and the hotel was also the venue. Restaurant is good with variety of dishes. The hotel is easy accessible to the city center by the bus that stops near the hotel. The staff is very helpful. The only thing is that wifi connection was poor on 4th floor, so evenings I couldn't work at room and sometimes had to go down to the lobby.

MoreI stayed three nights here as a part of a group tour. The room I received was on the first floor which is the bottom level, room 155. The window to this room faced a side yard which produced the smell of sewage that permeated the bathroom. Keeping the door shut prevented it from entering the bedroom area. I killed four mosquitoes the first night and another three the remaining two nights. In the mornings, a work crew was perched right outside my window which made it impossible to open the night shades to let some sunlight in. The bed was fairly comfortable, room was clean. Television could get some English channels including CNN which made the stay better. In the restaurant, the coffee was good but the food was subpar, I had better at other hotels in Jerusalem. The servers were rude- reaching over you to collect someone else's plate and never willing to assist with questions about getting water, wine or additional silverware. The stores which sold the olive wood, jewelry and beauty products were charming. The salespersons were kind and willing to assist however they could. The bartender was friendly and made an excellent cocktail. Had I received a better room the rating would be four stars. However the poor service in the restaurant would prevent it from obtaining a five.
Less“An Interesting place to stay while visiting Jerusalem”
This wonderful resort is in the Ramat Rachel Kibbutz just outside of Jerusalem. Great food, good service and it has an interesting history. It is close enough to the Old City and other major sites. Started as a kibbutz and an outpost it is now a residential area of modern homes. A very comfortable...

“Away from the bustle!”
Ramat Rachel was the perfect destination for our group. It was close enough to Jerusalem but not in the heart of the city. Beautiful grounds and absolutely amazing food selection. Breakfast was heaven! Rooms were clean and spacious with amazing views. Love this place.
