Lonely Planet "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).
Frommer's "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.

Fodor's "Built in the early 1930s as part of St. Andrew's Church, the guesthouse is as much a retreat as a place to stay overnight—"feeling like you're home" is the way they like to put it." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This delightful hospice has large, simple bedrooms and a somewhat colonial atmosphere, which is not surprising since the all-stone building dates from the late 1920s."
Frommer's "Situated on a small hill... and surrounded by a garden with panoramic views of Mount Zion and the Old City, this guesthouse is only a few steps to buses to all points in town." Full review
National Geographic "The Church of Scotland owns this 1927 stone guesthouse and adjoining church originally built as a memorial to Scottish soldiers who died in the region during World War I. " Full review
Lonely Planet "Set on a hill overlooking the Old City, with leafy gardens and an imposing stone facade, St Andrew’s feels like a bit of Scotland transported to the Middle East." Full review
