Eden Jerusalem Hotel Reviews

On the resturant: it's a really cool atmosphere. Medium prices. Great salad with grilled chicken. Lemonmint tea is better than most.

No coffee making facilities and the room rate more than the rate it was booked at otherwise a good place to stay

I was an international airline steward for 30 years and stayed in 5 star hotels during my working career. Now in retirement, The Jerusalem Hotel was one of my most memorable hotel stays. Not the glitzy, plastic feel that most modern hotels portray. It s a MUST STAY accommodation stop. It is a 3 minute walk from the old city and all the staff are most helpful, pleasant and flexible with one s individual needs. Excellent food in the restaurant with good size servings. I will mention that when one arrives at the front of the hotel it looks a bit bland, but walk inside and the atmosphere and decor takes you back 100 s of years. And after all, that s why you come to Jerusalem.

A wonderful place to feel and you are there with ease and tranquility

Nice place with good food and closer to the old City

Beautiful hotel. Clean. Nice service. Excellent location.

Went there for dinner. Service is great but a bit slow. However I loved the food there and it is reasonably priced. Loved it.

I could not have chosen a better hotel. True, the bathroom is small and the Wi-Fi comes and goes, but being within the stone walls in these historic rooms is great. It is three minutes from the Damascus gate, very comfortable, beautiful, super-characteristic. I loved it. Honorable mention also for the restaurant, all excellent, in a beautiful veranda. Try the lemon and mint hookah (shisha)!

One of the best hotels and restaurants in East Jerusalem and very close to the old City. Excellent service and everyone was very polite and helpful!

Excellent restaurant, Raed the host displays lovely, traditional Middle Eastern hospitality ... Great experience!!

Top appearance atmosphere.
Shower could be better.
Top staff

Even if the room was good, I was not able to sleep because my room was near the restaurant and it was noisy. Also, the room was smelling tabacco. Speaking of the restaurant, the service was very slow but at least the food was decent.

The place is wonderful and simple and faces like the old Syrian atmosphere

Amazing, the food is super good and local and especially the manager is just top !!

Super nice hotel, very nice people.
Very good location, not far from Damascus Gate.
The breakfast is also very good and varied, there is really nothing to complain about here.

Decent and friendly. More like a mansion turned into a hotel

Lovely place just north of Damascus gate bus station and there is a paid parking space next door which makes it very convenient.

Great food, beautiful Arabic classical music, delightful staff

Great location.
10min walk from Damascus gate into the old City.
Good service.
Clean rooms.
Just stay away from 3rd floor noisy bedrooms as they are all under the restaurant and breakfast area.

Excellent hotel, courteous and cozy service just homey and cozy!

Love this place, if your looking for the real palestinian experience this is the place, the food, the building... everything is authentic...

Great boutique hotel. Good place for a drink or lunch. Near the old city

A beautiful hotel, centrally located, with a tasteful decor between tradition and modernity. We loved the tasteful details. If we should come to Jerusalem again, we would like to go back to this hotel!

Quite close to the Old city. Price was good. Dont expect modern equipment but its exactly what we want to try. In restaurant you need to impress staff. They are quite chaotic and not so effective. It takes a lot of time when you will get a menu. But food was ok. Dont try world cousine, but local one is good unfortunatelly more expensive than is real value.

Beautiful hotel! Really enjoyed my stay here. The hotel has lots of history as it used to be a Byzantine church, police station and school. The decoration is beyond stunning in every corner including the room, and even the bathroom! It has a good restaurant which is outside and covered in vines. Location is also perfect. Super recommended!

Nice place, great views, friendly service. For a few days I can recommend.

Great rustic hotel...great location....would definitely return!

A convenient place to stay by the Old City, the Damascus Gate is right there. Lots of sesame bread vendors on the street outside and the Garden Tomb is also nearby. We enjoyed the hummus and hot chocolate in the restaurant downstairs and the room was cozy and quaint if not upscale. The concierge was a wonderful help to us when we needed help with our rental car and they were willing to pack a lunch for us when we left early one day.

We found the staff very friendly, the breakfast was well cared for and the food in the restaurant was also tasteful. The location of the hotel is super and the parking was also nicely arranged. Unfortunately our room (102) was very dated and renovation is necessary. The bathroom is very small, on 1 morning there was no hot water and the third bed was not sleeping. By the way, this is solved with an extra mattress and by laying some shelves underneath. If you don't have a lot of demands on your room, but if the location is important to you, this is a reasonable hotel.

A clean hotel and a great location just 400 meters from Bab El Amoud

Amazing family run hotel, that exceeds expectations on all accounts.

Ornately decorated old school hotel close to the Old City (Damascus Gate) with rustic charm. Rooms are dark and monastic, but can become oppressive. Service is generally good. The downstairs dining area is a bit of an oasis one moment and a lively spot to gather the next.

This place is beautiful! When you walk in You feel like you're walking into a piece of history. The room was cozy and the staff personable and friendly. The shaded restaurant is a welcome relief from the summer sun. Only one block away from the Old City. I will definitely recommend staying here any time you're in Jerusalem

Small, warm and cozy hotel, great reception, five star service. Distance from the house. Highly recommend it, the price is quite reasonable and the breakfast is good and varied and fresh, there is close and neat parking.
Highly recommend

Beds were stiff, and heat didnt work well. The ajoining restaurant service was quite good though

Great location near the old city just outside the walls

17/11/2018 a small hotel with 16 rooms, well decorated, historical place, right next to the entrance of the Damascus gate, old city of Jerusalem. Strongly recommended!

Incredible hotel.

The building is historical yet very updated. Our room was the perfect size and was well maintained. Very clean.

The details put into this place are amazing. From beautiful bed covers to the poetic writing on the wooden headboards. And if you love showers, well then be prepared for a near-spa experience.

Staff is extremely generous and knows the city and main sites so well. We likely had a better Jerusalem experience simply from the knowledgeable staff s guidance.

Amazing and flavorful restaurant downstairs tops it all off.

Highly recommended.

Friendly and very helpful staff.
Service ok.

This hotel is amazing! It s location is so convenient to the old city only And only a block away from the Damascus gate and just a few blocked from the New Gate. The staff is extremely friendly and the restaurant menu is delicious as well priced. They also serve breakfast daily. My room felt like I was staying is a little ancient castle! I could not asked for a better experience for my stay in Jerusalem. This place is a must stay!

Close to Old Jerusalem, its walls, doors and market

Ok
But there are others

An unprecedented experience with a backdrop that recalls the city of Jerusalem

This is an Arabian-style classic hotel.
Because there is no elevator, it is a stairs.

Great location but need better beds.
I could still feeling the wood slats from under he hard mattress.

From the outside, the hotel is unimpressive, but inside it is very beautiful and well kept. The hotel is within an easy walk of the Damascus Gate of the old Jerusalem. The staff is friendly and efficient. We enjoyed our stay.

First time in Israel and I will be back !!!
A great hotel with great people.
I recommend it with a good price in addition. Not far beyond the old town in addition.

Very nice East Jerusalem hotel. E sometimes go there for outside dining experience

I have never myself stayed at this hotel, but I heard great reviews about it with its old building and hospitable guests. This place is one of my top on the list of hotels when I want to host guests coming to Jerusalem.

I really like the restaurant there located at a pleasant terrace with plants around and a small fountain. It is an excellent place to meet people, have a drink or a meal. It's also good for working with one's laptop when no live music is playing.

Great proximity to the Old City, great people, great environment and fantastic food for a good price.

Really great location and friendly staff to take care of all your needs in a very old stone quaint building.

One of the cutest places I have ever been able to stop at.
Location is great. Damascus Gate within walking distance.
The food was exceptional and delicious.
The rooms convey a touch of the Orient.
Just wonderful.

Great Authentic hotel and good Palestinian / international food

Great non-conformist food environment run by a Palestinian Catholic family.

Most authentic Palestinian experience in Jerusalem!

We stopped by the hotel cafe after touring the nearby Garden Tomb. They were very nice to us even though we only stopped for drinks.

Amazingly beautiful place, a connection between Muslim Spain and ancient Morocco. Ideal location for entry from Nablus Gate for trips in East Jerusalem. Very helpful staff. Along with that, please check the sheets cleanliness! Replaced if requested and yet there are bedbugs, I stung. Breakfast less than standard
