Ask for a room upstairs if you don't mind climbing steps.
Insight Guides "Cross between a boutique hotel and guesthouse in large, stylish 1920s home in Jerusalem’s trendy Baka neighborhood."
DK Eyewitness "About 2 km (1 mile) due south of the King David Hotel, this welcoming place has an arched and colonnaded façade, modest rooms and a garden restaurant."
Frommer's "Set in a beautiful landmark early-20th-century stone mansion facing busy, highwaylike Derech Hebron, the Little House in Bakah is something of a misnomer, as it's large and impressive." Full review
Lonely Planet "A friendly boutique hotel with spacious rooms, an excellent cafe, high ceilings and a retro spin back to the 1920s, this is a good pick in the mid-price range." Full review
