Reviews of Turquoise

Location and Friendly staff

Turquoise is a magical place with just a few rooms. My room was huge, comfortable, and clean. It was very quiet and felt very safe. WIFI was solid. This is an ancient stone building lovingly restored. The hot water was hot and the refrigerator was cold. You would not know it from the quiet of the room but the hubbub of the downtown old city is just steps away. Go out the front door and turn right and you are in for a real treat as you enter the markets with hundreds of small vendors selling everything from vegetables to electric bicycles. The Turquoise open air cafe is upstairs with comfy seating, stupendous city wide views, and solid WIFI. It is a beautifully designed space, a refuge after the city tuckers you out and worthy of hours of relaxation. This was my first visit to Nablus and I loved it. It is energetic, complex, surprising, and safe. The owner of Turquoise speaks excellent English and stayed in instant touch via What's App messaging or by phone to answer any questions about the city. Nablus and Turquoise are fantastic and i highly recommend coming now.

It didn't bother me but the stairs to the rooms and then up to the cafe are steep and narrow. The stone stairs are beautifully restored but they might be a challenge for some people.

Excellent location in the old city, which is fantastic for spending hours exploring the souk and old streets. The building is really lovely and my room had a great view over the rooftops and street. The bed was really comfortable, and there was plenty of hot water. Staff were very friendly and helpful, especially Farah 🙂

It can get a bit noisy at night due to the rooftop cafe, so bring earplugs if you want an early night; it doesn't go on too late, though.

I love the Turquoise, it is clean, has a kitchen, wash facilities and a beautiful rooftop terrace with a stunning view over Nablus. The boys behind the bar could not be more hospitable and accommodating. Kefaea, the henna artist does intricate, floral designs that stretch to your fingertips and Basal is a charming host and knowledgeable about the history of Nablus, he is well worth spending time with. Then there is Nablus, it’s history is thousands of years old and as you leave the hotel you step on Al nasser/ Khalid Ibn Walid street you are stepping back in time. The Roman settlement of Sebastia is amazing, the Samaritan site on Mount Gerizim will blow your mind and to wonder the markets and back streets is magical. Eat the food, drink the drinks and speak to everyone and see what Palestinian culture has to offer. It’s wonderful.

That I had to leave it? 🤷🏽‍♂️

Friendly owner, stunning rooftop and restaurant with great sunset view, nicely decorated kitchen and common area. Comfortable location ten minutes away from the bus station and a few minutes away from the old town. There is no AC in the dorm, only two fans - I slept very well anyways.

The bathrooms can be cleaner and better taken care of. No credit cards accepted

Amazing Project and Founders - you have to check this out!

The downstairs beds literally fell apart and I fell through the mattress multiple times because the wood underneath was not secured - also caused backpain when sleeping there

I was never offered breakfast.

Very nice hostel. The owner and it's crew are amazing people, very friendly, helpful and caring. It is very well located in the beginning of the old city. Easy to move around and visit the area.

The shared bathroom with the restaurant upstairs is not very convenient during busy times, but is not too bad.

Location in the Old City was perfect. Rooftop cafe has the best views. Free breakfast cooked by a local was delicious.

Lots of stairs but they helped with our luggage.

We booked two beds in one of the shared bedrooms, but when we arrived to the hostel they told us there was just one bed available. But there was no problem and instead they gave us one private room with private bathroom for the same price without doubting. The location is excellent if what you want is to be in the heart of the old city. There´s a really nice restaurant in the roof top.

It was the best hostel I've ever stayed in!!

Turquoise is without any doubt one of the best hostels that I have been too. Staff are super friendly and the place in itself is amazing. If you are planing to visit Nablus this is the place to stay.

Amazing place in a really good location. Everything was clean and everyone there was super nice and friendly. Would definitely go there again. Thank you!

it's a beautiful place located in the old city. staffs are helpful and friendly especially Farah and also the volunteers Olga and Federica.

Amazing antique place

i ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS HOSTEL. It exceeded my expectations. The common area, rooftop area with an amazing view, kitchen and dining area. The rooms are really clean and comfortable and the beds were an absolute dream. The area is so authentic and cultural with the most amazing people, food and everything you'll want to do in town is close by, both attractions and the bus station. The owners will help with anything you need, even if they're not there you can contact on whatsapp

That I had to leave!
