Staying in Bethlehem with a group or a pilgrimage is much better than staying in one of the "tourist factories" in Jerusalem more

A beautiful hotel with elegant rooms and sprawling terrace and gardens. Even in the winter it looked amazing. I would love to be there in warmer weather! The highlights for me are the architecture, the comfort of the room, the amazing bar and most of all the attentive service. Yes, there are flaws, but these seem due to the fact... more

We had an overall very nice stay, the food was never hot and the desserts not very appealing but that was the only problem. All the staff were very polite and we had a lovely 4 day stay. more

Breakfast is a well provided continental buffet style spread with cheeses, fruit, pastries etc. Make sure... more
