The rooms were spacious and warm. The pool and jacuzzi was excellent. Unfortunately it was a short walk from the hotel. In the winter it’s cold so beware. The price did not include the health club. The breakfast was fresh not fancy but tasty.

MoreI first stayed here in 2017. We enjoyed it then, but noticed some awesome upgrades from our last visit. Everything is clean, the beds are comfy and the food is to die for! Me and some friends walked from the resort to the Jaffa Gate (it only took an hour and we enjoyed sight seeing along the way). This resort holds a special place in my heart. I hope to stay here again some day! Much love from Seattle WA!

MoreWe didn't venture much on the property and thus my rating is only three stars. The rooms were spacious but rather dated. There were stains on the curtains, the bathroom wasn't great and the bed was a bit too hard for me. However, we only spent time at night since we were out exploring Jerusalem during the day. We were lucky enough to be in Israel for Hanukkah and the hotel had sufganiyot while we were there (we stayed for three nights, one of which was the first night of Hanukkah). The property is quiet and the front desk staff was very nice and extremely helpful. I needed to buy a postage stamp but the store was closed. The young lady at the desk said she would get one for me and that I could pick up when I returned later that day. Sure enough, it was there. Keep up the great customer service - thank you!
