The King David Hotel
About the King David Hotel
Any discussion of luxury hotels in Jerusalem will invariably include the King David Hotel. Situated on King David Street, within walking distance of both the Old City and the capital’s bustling center, the King David Hotel is also a landmark piece of Jerusalem history. The hotel is notable for the sense of classic luxury, with impeccable services and a massive property that houses indoor and out door swimming pools, tennis courts, stunning gardens and gourmet restaurants.
The majestic building has been around since the 1920s, hosting myriad heads of state and celebrities, notably US presidents, Madonna, and the like – their unquestioned hotel is the King David. Other luxury hotels have cropped up in Jerusalem, including the nearby Mamilla Hotel and the David Citadel Hotel, but none, it seems, has managed to match up to the King David for pure elegance, old-world charm, and impeccable service.
In addition, the King David Hotel houses two restaurants (one meat, one dairy) and two bars (one inside, and one poolside) with cuisine made famous by its renowned King David chefs. Its breakfast is especially famous.
Even if you are not a guest, you can still take advantage of the King David Hotel’s eateries, spa services, haircuts, or other shops.

LessKing David Hotel is one of the oldest hotels in Israel and definitely the most majestic one. It is full of history, the architecture and design are fascinating, it's location next to the old city is great too.

But the best thing is the generous and courteous staff with their extra care and attention to details. And what better place to be in for a visit in Jerusalem than a place that's actually part of its history? A wonderful experience!
