Great location. Amazing views. Excellent service at breakfast buffet which is impressive. Atta added his special touch in his personalized service at breakfast. Rooms are well appointed and nice in size. We walked to the old city and just soaked about Jerusalem so easily from this location. We look forward to returning.

Hotel is nicely decorated. Room is spacious though without a nice view. Tub and shower very nice and convenient. Breakfast was great even though it was Saturday so no hand made omelets. Still very tasty and clean. Must say the service was bad. Receptionist and other staff members are not very nice, we felt unwelcome. Never had such experience in other hotels in Jerusalem. So we will not come back to this hotel. Price was expensive for one night stay. Dairy restaurant was not open during Friday night, we could only order to go and no available tables for someone who wants to order a snack or coffee. Too bad for 5 star hotel. Location is awesome.

The staff was extremely polite. We had a late flight out and they gave us an extended late checkout as a courtesy which they didn’t have to do. The staff was also very attentive to elderly guests at breakfast, anticipating their every need. Was very special to see.

Prepare to wait and make requests multiple times.
The staff is generally friendly, however, they need to be reminded several times to get anything done. If you want something you have to ask 3 people before you get it. Kind of a pain. Prepare to wait for everything in general. Another example if you do the online checkin they don’t check it so they ask for everything again and then they see that you already did it.
