The front desk staff was outstanding. The gentleman that was at the desk when we picked up our bags to head to the airport was so knowledgeable and proud of the property that I think he should be allowed time to provide tours - they would be excellent!

One of the best and affordable stays in West Jerusalem. Friendly and helpful staff, ample breakfast buffet and strategically located. A long history and with significant peace work amongst Israeli Jews, Muslims and Christians. Loved everything about my stay here.

Great location and staff

The best things about the hotel are the location and the staff. Francis was there whenever we needed anything. The rest of the staff was great as well. Only negatives were that the A/C wasn’t available and the lights flickered at times.

8/10 Very good

The staff was great minus their 7am to 10 am breakfast. I cant eat somewhere if I show up and you tell me its going to be another 20 mins before you open. The YMCA gym is a great bonus. Just like a YMCA in US. Just add a smoothie snack bar. The location is great. The gym hours are odd. It would be nice if you could work out before the city got going. 10am to 10pm... granted people in israel work out late so i get it. But it is not cool if you are working an American schedule. But if you dont mind working out after your activities its a good deal. The elevator is a bit on the small side. The building is nice. If you are a practical person it checks a lot of boxes.

A very good choice to stay in Jerusalem

Excellent location! Very cooperative staff. Room is comfort and everything in it worked as expected. Breakfast is good and includes everything one would expect, but somewhat basic. The hotel has a priavte parking which makes it very convenient if arriving with car. Very good value for price.

We stayed first 3 nights, and then 2 more because, lucky us, we were there the day of the attacks and the flights were cancelled. Hotel is nice, safe. Nicer than pictures would show you. Francis, Shehan (sorry about spelling) and manager were all very nice, helpful before and during the crisis. We were lucky to stay here during the rough time. Hotel is walking distance from the touristic part of Jerusalem (inside the walls)....10 minutes.

We found ourselves stranded in Jerusalem when the most recent war broke out. The YMCA offered great hospitality and security while we sheltered. The grounds are beautiful, peaceful, and clean. Service was helpful, friendly, compassionate, and very capable. It was a stressful time for sure, but the staff did everything it could to make our stay comfortable. We will forever be grateful.

Chef Jarod's breakfasts were delicious (just wish it had been included in price of staying there), beautiful grounds, lovely and helpful staff, bell tower view is the best! Wish the chairs for the "restaurant" had less holes and a better introduction to the place when checking in. Rooms hangers were a bit dusty and a musky smell in room (3rd floor I guess hasn't gotten the rennovation yet).

8/10 Very good

Excellent property, but could still use some upgrading. We stayed 4 nights, and one night the air conditioning only felt like a fan, but besides that, all was good. The YMCA gym, pool, jacuzzi is a real bonus, first class facilities and can share with locals. Very convenient to walk to all. Very quiet, no traffic noise. Very quiet room. Lobby area is beautiful. Shout out to Pauline, she was a big help getting contact info for us.
