Hotel berhampiran Tall al Ful, Baitulmuqaddis

Recently been touring the Holy Land and stayed in this very ordinary hotel. The party were there for 4 nights while in Jerusalem. The rooms are ordinary but we’re tired and needed some TLC. The breakfast and dinner buffets were good and offered a fair variety to meet ordinary needs bu5 it did not sparkle. The internet was reasonable and did the business. In the basement was a group of shops. I used the coffee house as the hotel coffee was nothing special. The hotel was noisy as it seemed full with runners for the Marathon as well as other touring groups. Staff were mixed. Some were very helpful, others seemed to treat guests as nuisance. They should work on there welcome. Yes the hotel is ordinary in need of a make over if it wants to improve its reputation.

The location was perfect, so easy to walk to the old city and the metro was at the bottom of the road. It’s also the perfect location for restaurants. The room was quite small but adequate. The bar area was not open during the stay. Was able to drop bags off before check in which was really useful.

Generally a nice and clean place, but I’m a light sleeper, and the traffic noise was unfortunately too much for me to sleep comfortably in. However, I was travelling in the company of other, less light sleepers, and they had no issues sleeping in the room right next to mine. The hotel entrance was guarded by the smoking receptionist; perhaps they should work a bit on the first impression they give their guests.

We stayed at the Mamila hotel for four nights. We upgraded our room to a suite. The living room was lovely. However, having the bathroom separated from the bedroom only by glass - which does get translucent - still lets a lot of light into the bedroom. Morning brunches were amazing. The only thing missing was Jerusalem bagels which are soft and oval shaped with a honey semsame topping. Happy Fish Restaurant was only open for drinks when we stopped by, the outdoor space is lovely and overlooks the shopping district. We did not think much of the Rooftop Restaurant. Service was slow, We were not allowed to tip on our credit card and had to give cash. The highlight of our stay, though, was the front desk customer serice gentleman, Mark Souclah. His went above and beyond to help us. He even walked us to our restaurant a few blocks away to be sure we did not get lost. Whenever we called upon him, he came thru! We would stay here again!

Administrators, front desk, staff, and caretakers were helpful going above and beyond to make my superfast and very tight-schedule in Jerusalem possible. Rooms were neat, clean, and pre-cooled - good for instantly sleeping in my case. I couldn't go for breakfast due to time constraints but the lobby smelled so nice that I have no doubt whatever was inside was amazing! (P.s. 80% of taste is smell). Location-wise, the hotel is located in the heart of Jerusalem and however it is currently rated 4 stars, I feel everything here is equivalent to 5 or 7 star hotel I have visited given that I travel mostly with work on my mind and/or have visited hotels with professional company. The hotel was silent and peaceful and one can work there. Food was too tilted on the romantic side. The location was great. All of this was just 100 Euros is also very economical. Thank You to the lady at the reception for helping me to order a Dominos Pizza at 1 AM when I arrived and staff who received it for me.

my mother always told me to take the extra time to give a compliment.. so here it is: the eldan is situated in a wonderful location- across the street from the king david hotel, a 4 minute stroll to the mamilla mall and a 5-6 minute walk downhill to jaffa gate. they have hot water for tea and coffee and yummy cookies available friday night and all day saturday in the lobby. last year i stayed here, and the CORNER room was fine. the breakfast was quasi adequate. and now: last week i stayed here, to be close to my tourists staying at the inbal. the room: 407: stay away from unless you want to recreate the experience of being in a doll house. there was no luggage rack, and to walk around the bed you are almost brushing against the walls. the bathroom floor tile was cracked, the toilet seat had been painted over the chips, there was enough hairs to collect DNA samples from previous guests and there was only luke warm water in morning shower. dining room: the sign at the check in said dinner friday night starts at 7pm. i showed up 7:15 and was refused a piece of cake, told it was frozen and to wait. i insisted, and was allowed to take a piece from the buffet. i came back an hour late to eat- the challah rolls were still cold/semi frozen. the grilled? baked? chicken fillets were hard enough to resole ancient sandals, one of the cooked meats was uncuttable, and couldve been used as ballast material at masada. the other meat was edible. the soup was boiled water with vegetables, no spices added- perfect for those who love bland par excellence. breakfast was quasi ok. i dont know what happened here - but i wouldnt request to repeat this experience unless i can be sure it has radically improved.

Room looks a little bit rundown but it was spacious and the ensuite bathtub made for a great way to relax after an entire day of walking around in the city. It was located a little distance from the Tram stop, so if you dont know the shortcut, it could take a while to see and walk to the hotel. Breakfast selection and variety was great, enjoyed the meals thoroughly. Location was near the civic centre and National Library, so that was a nice bonus.
