The King David Hotel is an icon of israel 🇮🇱. If the walls could talk you’d learn history from the founding of Israel to today. It’s big, energetic and in the middle of everything a tourist would want to see in Jerusalem. Here’s the view form our room.

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.

MoreBooked the room via the Dan Online booking service. On arrival all details were found and we were shown to the room and given an outline of the various amenities. The room itself was a little small with a decent view over modern Jerusalem. The bathroom had a separate shower, which was great. Also the contents of the mini bar are included in the rate( two bottles of water, a coke and two juices), not much to get excited about. The foyer was amazing and the bar looked cosy. It's an easy walk to the Jaffa Gate and if you choose to you can walk through the shopping mall on the way. Also the tram seems to run fairly close from the old city. Breakfast was a joy, so much to choose from and excellent service from the staff. Check out the next morning was simple and no surprises. Stayed here due to the history attached to the hotel.

We sat in the coffee shop expecting to drink just a cup of coffee and ended up ordering pasta with tomato sauce and mushroom focacha. Both were delicious and went well with the coffee instead of sweets. The service was pleasant and efficient and we could sit and chat with my cousin from London...
