"This three-story, modern building has views of the Old City walls... views from the roof are spectacular, and the hotel plans to develop the roof as a place for guests to visit." Full review
"This gaudy East Jerusalem hotel caters mainly to jet-setting businessmen flying in from Cairo or the Gulf States. Despite this, rates are still reasonable." Full review

"Part hotel, part community centre and part social hall, Beit Shmuel can get pretty busy." Full review

Standard rooms are no-frills affairs that feel like college dorms (ask for one facing the Old City).
"The complex boasts excellent views of the Old City and a network of terraces, gardens, and courtyards...it contains rooms with private bathrooms that can be arranged for two to six people." Full review

The rooms are worn from heavy use. But we still recommend Bet Schmuel for all the cultural perks it offers. Visitors of all faiths and ages are welcome.
