We booked this hotel using United Frequent Flyer miles. It was pricey but using miles softened the blow. Breakfasts had enough quantity and quality to get us through the whole day with little more than some snacks. We ate at the cafe in the evenings, so can't comment on the restaurant. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Room was great... More

The American Colony is the perfect place to stay in this City with it's vast history and heritage. One feels a sense of privilege walking around and being surrounded by its unique architecture and framework. It is exceedingly homely and intimate. It's almost like a labyrinth of delights and reminds me of similar properties in India and Sri Lanka. It... More

We stayed here about 15 years ago but it was one of the most charming hotels I have stayed in. Fabulous atmosphere and wonderful lady who owned it. Beautiful sandstone building and central courtyard for meals. Breakfast amidst orange trees!! We have travelled a great deal but this was a stand out and I see it is only 4 stars... More

And it's so terribly interesting and full of character; spacious and atmospheric courtyards, olde... More

I went there last summer. Be aware that the Hotel is next to a mosque. Some of the rooms are directly next to the loudspeaker. The prayers will wake you up before 5 a.m. and again shortly after 6 a.m. Not very relaxing. The staff was not what I expected. They were bored and not very helpful (for example I... More

We were fortunate enough to be upgrade to a beautiful suite. The hotel is an oasis of calm and a tremendous location to explore Jerusalem from. Tranquil pool area . Excellent food. All in all one could not wish for more. More

This was not my first visit to this unique hotel, and I was looking forward to staying there on a special family occasion. They've become part of Leading Hotels of the World, so my expectations were quite high. Overall we had a good stay, but it was somewhat below our expectations. The rooms, which are quite unique (in the main... More

The hotel is a magnificent old building complex with well appointed spacey beautiful rooms an excellent Restaurant offering international cuisine and a very cosy bar with the most... More
