This hotel is in a great location but the rooms are very run down. You need to walk up a flight of stairs to check in which is a problem with people who have disabilities since there is no elevator. The first room we were sent to had no TV, then we were moved to a higher floor with a... More

The good location, availability of parking and comfortable clean beds are the positive side of the hotel. It how-ever needs a serious make-over. Buckets standing in the passages to catch dripping water from leaking pipes from the roof, to false fire alarm and nobody seems to know were to switch IT off at 2 in the morning. Hotel definitely not... More

This is bang opposite the old city of Jerusalem. No other hotel beats the view. The hotel as such has become old and used.There are no lifts, but there's just ground and 1st floor. So, those with heavy bags please ask for the ground floor. For a day in Jerusalem, this is well and good. The Buffet is okay, nothing... More

To begin with the positive: A good location at the mount olive in walking distance to the old city. However on the way back it is very steep up the hill... the rooms and the beds are okay and quiet. Nevertheless the hotel is a wreck that reminded me of some hotels in Russia or in Romania. Wear-down, mass-style tourism.... More

amazing view on the whole Jerusalem! a lovely garden outside where you can sit back and have a drink. Free wi-fi in the lobby ( a pity not in the rooms...). Delicious food. Friendly service. I guess everything you need to be satisfied. ;)

I have often wondered if roses have thorns or thorns have roses. The 7 Arches is set in contrast to both the geography and the politics in which finds itself. The service and the food in the restaurant were a wonderful oasis in such a beautiful land of turmoil.
