Friendly staff but hotel room was very dirty incluiding the sheets. Made the beds sloppy did not throw away garbage the last two days of my stay. I won’t be staying there when i return to israel. Gave a two star because some staff was very friendly besides that the hotel stay wasn’t nice especially for the price i paid.
I have now stayed in the New Imperial Hotel twice for a total of eighteen nights, all in room #8. It is my home away from home. The Dajani family is one of the five most prominent families in Jerusalem, and their management of the New Imperial is flawless. The rooms are well-appointed, service is prompt and professional, the daily breakfast is delicious, and the family goes out of their way to make guests feel at home. I love it. I miss it! I'll be back.
The breakfast was very different than a typical American breakfast. Everything fresh, lots of vegetables and healthy food. The staff was wonderful and it was conveniently located inside the old city. Great restaurant just around the corner called The Oak. Lots of shopping around and the roof top is wonderful for views and time together. Most of the staff are family and were some of the nicest people we met during our stay. Also listen to Amir the man running the place. He can get you tours and taxis a lot cheaper than you on your own.
This hotel is a gem. Great, central location in Jerusalem and right inside Jaffa Gate. Safe, clean and comfortable. Terric breakfast included. Every staff person i interacted with was friendly, helpful and kind. The building itself dates from the 1880s which gives it charm and authenticity, but my room & bathroom were clearly 21st century. AC included. No elevator, so be prepared to climb stairs. The front desk man helped me & several others carry our bags. Lovely hotel. I will be back.
This was my second time staying - last year’s week before Sukkot also. Kind and generous hospitality and friendliness at every turn. Great location. Wonderful rooftop. Delicious breakfast every day. Water and coffee 24/7
In the Old City - short walk to Kotel, Mamilla and Ben Yehuda. Taxis near by. Train from airport to CBD and then light rail to City Hall stop and walk to Jaffa gate. Well done dear friends!
This place had an eclectic Middle East feel to it with the decor to match. Cannot beat the location if you want to be in Old City Jerusalem. Within walking distance of the Israel Museum. Taxis right out front. Market right outside. Fantastic staff. Tons of stairs.
The hotel is in a great location for the main points of interest in the old town. The staff are very friendly and helpful. It’s an old property and has some quirks and unique features which is part of the charm. Would stay again.
The Imperial was a great place to stay, I’d book it again without hesitation. Rania and the team of staff are great hosts. The building is quite unique and location perfect for exploring the old city…. Just 10 mins walk to the Western Wall, rampart walks both 1 min away, taxi rank opposite hotel, Roots and Nafoura are great dining options.
Love the history of the place. The room is as it was described. Staff were friendly. Very convenient to the new and old city. Would come back. Highly recommend
