Very attentive owners who run the place and are very knowledgeable with recommendations to local attractions. Very clean & nice little suite with all needed amenities and resonably priced in Israeli hotel standards. Very good value for cost in Jerusalem. Honers serve a very nice Israeli breakfast ...

Waldorf Astoria Jerusalem
We spent a few days with two kids - very good location and quality, so anyone would understand what they are paying for. We checked a few other "luxury" hotels nearby while exploring around and, to our great surprise, we came to a conclusion that this one is most likely the best among them.
