Mount of Olives Hotel

Very friendly reception. Needs a bigger sign though. The room is quite ok considering the price .

臨街噪音比較大，但是對於睡眠比較好的人，性價比還好：僅靠昇天教堂，一分鐘距離是主禱文教堂；臨近橄欖山重要觀景台也不過四五分鐘的路程。

Good, updated room with an excellent bed and excellent bathroom. Food was very good, although there was no variety day to day. Keep in mind, that if you are shopping in gift shops, most places list prices in US dollars or sometimes Euros. Thus, if you exchange money at the airport into the New Israeli Shekels. and pay with shekels, you will lose money on the conversion rate.

We stayed here as part of a tour group, so we had many meals here. The food was good, but day to day there was not much variety. Our room was excellent - air conditioning worked well, the bathroom was remodeled, lots of storage space, mattress on the bed was nice and firm (not like the soft, unsupportive mattresses in the US hotels). At night, the neighborhood appears to be rough. It was recommended that women in our group do not venture out of the hotel without a male escort (even during the day). Also, be aware that all tourist shops prefer to receive dollars or euros, not the new Israeli shekels (NIS) - in fact, in many tourist shops the prices are in dollars or euros. If you pay in NIS, then the exchange rate from dollars to shekels will not be favorable to you. At the airport, the exchange rate was 3.6 NIS for 1 USD, but in tourist shops for an item costing 1 USD, they will want 4 shekels. Only exchange USD for shekels if you plan to go to regular Arab or Israeli stores.

O my God... where do I begin?... The hospitality & love the staff shows is apart from anything I've experienced in Jerusalem! It is the.most moderately priced hotel (yay for that!), but the breakfast you get is nutritious & vast enough, the mint teas or coffees you can pour yourself throughout the day are a very special touch, and if you need a pick-me up lunch or dinner they make that available to you, too, with no hassle just love, and it's delicious! They renovated the 3rd floor, which is really special with marble floors, a big TV screens and very nice rooms! Lower floors are less expensive & modest, but they're all you need when you're on a pilgrammage, and was perfect for me! Also... this is the clincher: you begin the Walk of Jesus from this very point to the Garden of Gethsemane along Palm Sunday Road, then through Lion's Gate and Via Dolorosa to the very, very Church of the Holy Sepulchre! And this, you must walk for the full experience or you're seriously short-changing yourself! - Which means, you should be based at this hotel! The best upscale & quaint restaurant & cafe is right beside the Hotel and everyone says they ate the ery best shewarma of their lives here! Also... another clincher: the Mount of Olives Hotel is right beside the Ascension rock from whence Jesus ascended! A must visit! Orthodox churches & monasteries are all around the Hotel so again, a perfect choice for Orthodox Christians, and remember, you can walk to Old Town Jerusalem from here or take a local bus! And you have the best wide angle view of Jerusalem from the Lookout Point, overlooking the Dome of the Rock & the Golden Gate! And on a personal note: someone stole my iPhone from the OldCity, so I had to ask staffers umpteen times to use their mobile phones for whatsapp communications with my security advisor, and they were always obliging, understanding patient & compassionate! They just have a whole lotta' love! I will never forget them, and will base my future groups here! They got My Vote! Best & God Bless! xo~A Angelina of Jerusalem
