    Bar resturant. We had a dinner in the bar instead of main resturant , it was closed at night. The dinner was bad, the meal were cold and poor apitizers . The service was more bad, the resturant staff were very bad, they even didnt take care of us, the service in general was very slow. There was a wedding party, and the noise was loud and very disturbing.

    The pool and breakfast was very good. The staff was good specially Mr. Moayad he took care for us very well.

    A great place to unwind and to explore Jerusalem. Exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast in the courtyard, with a small pond and fountain in the middle, was a great way to start the day. The small bookshop attached to the hotel is outstanding.

    This is a unique boutique hotel that is classy and feels like a peaceful oasis in the hectic city . Alex the general manager personally helped us leave the country by land once the war started . We will always be grateful for his kind assistance . With his help , we managed to cross into Jordan and find flights back to London via Istanbul .

    The service at the pool, was really problematic !!! you had to scan the menu and also order online, additionally you had to give info like your name your phone number& I don’t know what else! I didn’t had the time or patience to do all this ! I just wanted to have a drink by the pool while I was sunbathing! So I had to start complaining to the poor waiter Except that everything else was super !!!

    Amazing stylish !!! Old school staff !

    Since it was winter, the patio and pool were closed. There was not much to do in the hotel. The room itself was pretty basic.

    Nothing, really. Our stay was perfect

    The hotel grounds are beautiful, with a lovely, lush garden in between the stone buildings of the estate. Ample free parking was available on site. The service was superb, all staff were helpful and very friendly. Breakfast was rich and tasty, and there was a selection of vegan items available upon request. Complimentary beverages and water bottles were stocked daily in the room, and having a Nespresso coffee machine complete with capsules in the room was lovely. The hotel was beautifully decorated for the approaching Christmas holiday and the festive atmosphere was warm and welcoming. We enjoyed drinks at the bar, which is comfortable and cozy, lovely for relaxing after a day of exploring the city.

    Breads at breakfast were stale. Price was too expensive. Bed wasn’t very comfortable- 2 separate single blankets, 2 single beds combined with uncomfortable gap in the middle.

    Beautiful building. Professional and very pleasant staff. Great shower experience.
