My experience with this hotel is the worst in my life. I am an avid traveler. It was unclean. The bathrooms were beyond unclean. The cot was so bad I could only sleep a few hours a night. The foreign men who smoked the pipes, that smell made it hard to breath. The wifi was good and that and the... More

Golden Gate Hostel is located inside Damascus Gate of the Old City in Jerusalem, Palestine. Thus, one has all the stores and excellent restaurants literally at the door steps. It is also minutes away from the Church of Holly Sepulchre, Via Dolorosa and entrance to the Western Wall and Temple Mount where visitors can visit the latter between 7:30-10:30 a.m.... More

This hostel is strategically located inside the old city walls, not far from the Damascus Gate. From here it is possible to visit anywhere within walking distance. The staff is very friendly and welcoming, if needed they let you drop your things if it is too early to check in and you like to have an early start excursion in... More

We booked the Golden Gate Hostel through booking.com and had the confirmation. However when we arrived on Nov. 9 the clerk told us there was no reservation in their record. The funny part was in our confirmation sheet it showed the Golden Gate Hostel Inn however the phone was Petra Hostel's. Before we reached the Golden Gate the cab driver... More

We stayed for one week in a room for 8 people and we found it very confortable and notably clean. There is a water boiler near the reception that you can use anytime you want to prepare tea or coffee. Kitchen available. The better thing is the location, deep inside the Old City (arab quartier) and very close to the... More

The worst hotel/hostel/pension in our last trip was the Golden Gate Inn... dirty, poor, little hot water, poor breakfast... nothing special!!! We change for the other nights in Jerusalem to another place... same price and better conditions... believe me... you have better options in the same area or in the city center (most recomendable!!!). If you want to enjoy Jerusalem...... More
