Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was truly memorable. The location is absolutely perfect, right next to the old city, fulfilling my expectation of a stunning view. The service was top-notch, especially at Seasons Restaurant. The dining experience was fantastic, with a variety of fresh and delicious options. However, I found the room prices a bit on the higher side.
The hotel offers fantastic views of the pool area and the old city from the rooms, making it a luxurious stay. The cleanliness and comfort are top-notch, although the room size is somewhat small. The service, particularly from Miss Naomi at the SPA reception, is very attentive, exceeding expectations. The location is unbeatable, within walking distance to the Old City of Jerusalem. The dining experience is superb, with a wide range of delicious options. Overall, a great choice for a memorable stay.
The hotel has its ups and downs. The rooms, although a little tired and cleaning can be improved, offer a luxurious experience with a marble bath, separate living and bedroom areas, and a balcony overlooking the Old City. The service is friendly and helpful, even when the pool gets crowded. The location is exceptional, close to the old city and within walking distance to many restaurants. The dining experience varies, with limited options for those with diet restrictions but heartwarming service. A mix of pros and cons make this a complex choice for travelers.
The hotel offers large rooms, some overlooking a busy noisy junction and others with a terrace and a view of the old city. The service was a mix of attentive and distracted staff, but overall delivered warm hospitality. The location is excellent for accessing the old city but can be crowded. The dining experience was delightful, though it could get chaotic quickly. The hotel facilities were decent, offering a comfortable stay overall.
