Another Wonderful Stay at the David Citadel

We have stayed at this hotel many times and we have never been disappointed. When you arrive they say “Welcome Home” and they are right. The service is excellent and everyone cannot do enough to make your stay comfortable including Sami in the morning doing artwork in the cappuccino foam. We have rarely made a request even at the last minute that they could not accommodate. I would urge anyone coming to Jerusalem for the first or 20th time to stay here.

Great location. Amazing views. Excellent service at breakfast buffet which is impressive. Atta added his special touch in his personalized service at breakfast. Rooms are well appointed and nice in size. We walked to the old city and just soaked about Jerusalem so easily from this location. We look forward to returning.

The staff was extremely polite. We had a late flight out and they gave us an extended late checkout as a courtesy which they didn’t have to do. The staff was also very attentive to elderly guests at breakfast, anticipating their every need. Was very special to see.

Very disappointed that there was tons of noise outside my room and from the lobby in middle of the night. And the shower never got very hot. I asked to fix it but it was never fixed. Overall the staff was good and the location is great.

We wanted the light in our room to be shut off but it was a difficult task since the light was set to Shabbat mode. Unfortunately, we had the light on the whole evening and we couldn't sleep. We went and complained to the reception desk. As a courtesy, Yazen Atrash offered our family lunch which was an incredible experience. He also offered to give us a discount when we're ready to book another reservation. We are So Happy with the incredible service that Yazan offered us. We will definitely come again!

6/10 Good

Hotel is nicely decorated. Room is spacious though without a nice view. Tub and shower very nice and convenient. Breakfast was great even though it was Saturday so no hand made omelets. Still very tasty and clean. Must say the service was bad. Receptionist and other staff members are not very nice, we felt unwelcome. Never had such experience in other hotels in Jerusalem. So we will not come back to this hotel. Price was expensive for one night stay. Dairy restaurant was not open during Friday night, we could only order to go and no available tables for someone who wants to order a snack or coffee. Too bad for 5 star hotel. Location is awesome.
