    lush garden
    cozy atmosphere
    early morning noise

    The hotel grounds are a lush green dream, perfect for lounging. Free parking was a bonus! Plus, I loved the lovely decorations for Christmas. It got me all cozy inside!

    As for the neighbor's crowing rooster at dawn-thanks for the wake-up call, buddy! Never knew I needed an alarm clock that sings!

    The atmosphere created was elegant! The location was amazing and I could use free parking on site. Ate at Grill House, it's at a moderate distance from the venue.

    Views were really bad.

    picturesque gardens
    inviting pool

    The picturesque gardens were a peaceful escape, and the pool was always inviting. We loved the charming atmosphere improved with lovely decor and the unique gift shop nearby.

    All the comfort you expect from a luxury hotel (or almost) combined with the charm of an historical building. Convenient location within walking distance from the old city (10minutes), wonderful patio / garden. Swimming pool seems to be nice, but was closed during my stay (in March). Rooms are nicely furnished with typical furniture and accessories. Breakfast with huge choice of European, American and local (less) product. Staff friendly and helpful. Good WiFi in all public areas in the main building, business center with printer etc.

    I had a small room in an annex building, which was nice, but rather noisy, there was a sort of night club or bar (?) with arab music late at night and traffic and car radios early in the morning, all could be heared even with closed window. I had dinner at the hotel once and was rather disappointed, the kitchen is rather french/italian than local, good quality but nothing special, slightly stiff atmosphere and service and all this for a high price compared to local standards. There are better dining options in Jerusalem! Would have preferred to have more local products at breakfast as well (I do not come to Israel to have a "Selection of International Cheese", they have so good products there! WiFi did not work well in my room.

    The American Colony hotel is essential to any itinerary of a visitor to Israel. Located on the "seam line" , this oasis of peace and beauty demonstrates how an ideal can actually be achieved. Breakfast or afternoon tea in the courtyard, barbeque in the gardens, or a day by the pool, can restore one's soul. The rooms are spacious and well maintained; simply but adequate furnishings.The staff are courteous, helpful and multilingual, The cuisine is not as outstanding as it was years ago. The best food is now served in the barbeque garden. Don't miss the wonderful bookshop and antique store.

    Beautiful hotel, historical place, professionalism of staff. also romantic as long as you have a quiet room

    The unwillingness of the front desk to offer a concession after we were unable to rest due to the cooridor in front of our room being used fora very noisy way station for food and trolleys.

    lush gardens
    friendly staff

    Consider me officially shocked

    This hotel is a true gem! Surrounded by lush gardens, the ambiance is serene. Attention to detail is perfect, from the spacious rooms to the good breakfast. I was especially impressed by the friendly and accommodating staff who go the extra mile. It was like stepping back in time with modern comforts.

    It provided everything that I needed for my business trip including a very comfortable room with complimentary and effective wi-fi. I also made good use of the gym, though the out-door pool was not open in winter. It was so nice to stay in an hotel with real character and some history also - not just another modern clone.
