Best location you could ever hope for if you're interested in the Old City. Everyday I became prouder that I get to stay here, right by the Al-Aqsa Mosque. This property has belonged to the owner's family for generations, and the breakfast is beautiful. I recommend everyone to stay here - best value for money hostel you could hope yo find in Jerusalem.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Very comfortable room. Clean and well furnished. Great location for exploring the neighborhood. Felt safe and secure during our very short visit. Staff were most accommodating, even arriving early to let us in and following up to ensure everything was okay. Will certainly return.

    This was my second stay at the hostel as it was one of the cheapest places to stay in Bethlehem for Christmas, and is located right near where the Christmas Eve parade starts. The host provided a traditional home-cooked Christmas Eve meal for a reasonable price.

    A fantastic hostel with a warm Palestinian welcome in a great location. Local bus stops are close by and the owner is very knowledgeable so it’s a great place to locate yourself if you want to travel to other areas in the West Bank. It’s also in a nice neighbourhood, so safe if you fancy heading out for food or drinks in the evening but has a good vibe within if not. Quite the Little Star of Bethlehem!
