Reviews of William's Guest House

A warm and welcoming place to stay! Breakfast was great with pita, cheese, meats, and different spreads, etc. and coffee, tea, and such sincerity to make sure I was comfortable, asking if I needed anything at all, but with plenty of privacy. It was like a home away from home…such true kindness! I’ve been traveling for five years, and such places are rare…only one other like it in all those years. The room was very comfortable, as was the bed, and always clean. I honestly felt like I'd hit the jackpot - comfy, clean, and a welcoming and delightful place to stay with a super location in the Old City of Jerusalem. Wish I could have stayed longer!

Nothing at all...

This charming guesthouse is located right in the old city and is very convenient if you want to explore. We came straight from the airport, our first time ever in Israel, and felt at home immediately. It was a wonderful place to come home to after a day out walking the streets of Jerusalem. The hosts are super friendly and helpful. The rooms are spacious and bright, very clean and comfortable. We loved the generous and delicious self serve breakfasts of eggs, pita bread, hummus, salad, olives, cold meats and cheese, olive oil and za'atar... We had a wonderfully memorable stay and hope to come back in the future!

If you have walking difficulties please be aware that there are a lot of steps to get to the guesthouse, as is the case throughout the old city.

Excellent location, clean and comfortable.

Impossible to have rest due to noise. This place is extremely nice and clean, but it has the enormous disadvatage of having all the rooms with open space around the doors and so you hear every single noise. The first morning I was waken up very early in the morning by the noise in the kitchen, on the other side of the door of my room. It was exactly as if someone was making coffee on your head literally. I wish to this place to solve the problem with the strange doors that are really painful obstacle for silence and rest. We come to the Holy city of Jerusalem from all the countries in the world with the sincere aim and wish to venerate this holy place and we simply wish to have the possibility for rest in the hotel. This is all.

Location

The bed could have more comfortable.

William's Guest House is a home away from home in the old city of Jerusalem. Located close to the Ethiopian Church, right within the cobbled alleyways which mark the historic city, the accommodation combines modern facilities with an old world environment which is only to be understood by experience. The house itself is old style, stone walls, wrought iron rails, old pictures and wooden furniture which breathes another world. The room was clean, comfortable, modern. The kitchen is open access with 24 hour tea and coffee. Breakfast stuff is in the fridge and you make it yourself per convenience. On an early day, we packed our own breakfast, on another day we left early then returned for a late breakfast- very convenient. You can warm up your own meal or make eggs if you wish. Lovely shops, cafes and eateries around. We arrived from Tel Aviv Airport by public transport. Took the train into Jerusalem central bus station, then line 1 to Damascus Gate stop. Short walk from there. We did not have much luggage, so this was very doable. Check in was smooth. We called William on the doorbell, were allowed into the courtyard. He arrived promptly to hand over keys and explain arrangements. On day out, we simply left keys in the house. He was contactable when needed but we had our own privacy in the space. Everything is walkable in the old city. A Jerusalem experience is incomplete without staying in here. William's guesthouse is a perfect option.

Nothing I can think of.

The hospitality from Micheal and his family was unreal, like perhaps nothing I have experienced before. The property was good value for money, clean and comfy. Hosts were extremely accommodating with any requests.

N/a

Very clean, always available kitchen with coffee / tea

Exceptionally clean place, immensely friendly and helpful owner, super location.

Wonderful people! Very clean, quiet, and could not ask for better location. Roof top is really nice! Could not have asked for better accommodations. The building has been redone and retained its ancient feel and stonework. Will definitely return!

I couldn’t stay longer!

Location was great. Rooms were comfortable. The host, Mischel was amazing. He goes the extra mile to ensure the guest is happy.

Location was great in the Middle of the old Town

Rooms were packed with Beds, not much Walkway or Place to put a Suitcase -> was bearable as I was able to move to a bigger Room and a Bed (was a 3 Bed Room) was taken out. I booked for a Week and with more space it was perfect. Booking was with Breakfast, but Guests have to make their own Breakfast, Food was provided. Table for 6 in a very small Kitchen. I was mostz of the time the only Guest with another Guy for 3 Days. It worked only because I was alone. The Guesthouse can take 17 People in Total, so I don't wont to stay there when it is packed.

The location was great in the old town. Not far from the Holy Sepulchre or other major cites. Staff and owner are exceptional. The accommodation was clean with a selection of fruit, tea, coffee and hot chocolate, eggs, pita and hummus. Also close to very nice restaurants and mini markets too. It will be my first choice if available if I return to Jerusalem

No complaints at all. I recommend trying to get familiar with the entry points into the old town in advance. It took a day of getting used to but was ok.

Super pleasant host and friendly staff, clean and tidy rooms and nice design

The best place we have stayed in if seveal years, Michael was alwas near by to help us. The breakfast was not continental, it was a full breakfast with different options. The location is exceptional so close to the 8th station of La Via Dolorosa. They even help us with services not really included.

Nothing. Everything was great!

It was clean It was cozy The location was excellent We had lovely house mates( bonus)

I booked this for my older brother-in-law for 4 nights. William and his staff were exceptionally kind, thoughtful and helpful to him. They went above and beyond and was very much appreciated!

Nothing bad to comment on.

Very good management, very helpful person.
