"The centerpiece of the marble-floored lobby at the King Solomon is a huge, spherical sculpture of Jerusalem by renowned sculptor Frank Meisler."
Frommer's

"If 'faded 1970s grandeur' ever becomes fashionable, this place will become one of the hippest hotels in Jerusalem. But until then it's just a tired concrete pile with uninspiring interior decor."

"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

"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

"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
