Very Charming and A+ Service

Reviewed By mohamadahmad1984

From the moment we entered we were treated with A+ service. Moayyad at the front desk took care of us and Samer escorted us to our room. The hotel is an incredible mix of luxury and old school charm, it’s like a time capsule. The morning chef was so helpful and polite as was our waitress Ezra. The birds chirping adds to the romantic charm. The pool is a perfect size and they have a decent fitness center.

Very cool place!

This place is not your grandfather’s YMCA. Well, it may have been built when he was around but that’s about it. Beautiful inside and out and very convenient to old town and restaurants and shopping. Great service too. Definitely we recommend this place.

My Daughter got married in Jerusalem at Menschim Begin Museum. Inbal was 5 minutes walk. Also only 15 minutes to Mamilla Mall and entrance to the Old City. This Hotel meets every expectation, snd my wife and I travel a good bit. Modern, clean, nice sized rooms, excellent services, great staff, shops, pool, great dining setting and food, and reasonably priced. You can’t beat it for a choice. The neighborhood the hotel is in is also nice looking and safe.

Great location, super helpful and friendly staff, very small bathroom

Reviewed By amyp897

My husband and I spent 2 nights here in May 2022. We stayed at another Atlas hotel in Tel Aviv and enjoyed our stay there as well. The only reason I'm giving 4 instead of 5 "stars" is because the bathroom was so small, my 6'3" husband barely fit in the shower, and the bathroom is in the middle of the hotel room without any windows, so it gets super hot and humid (good luck trying to dry your hair!) Our bed was large and comfortable, and the staff was incredibly helpful in finding us an incredible driver/tour guide to take us to the Dead Sea. The hotel has a cute little patio out front, the wifi works well, and you can take some great sunset pics from the rooftop. This hotel has a daily happy hour which is great for getting a snack after a long day of wandering around Jerusalem. Our room also had a fridge which was convenient for keeping an extra bottle of wine and snacks. You can walk to almost anywhere in Jerusalem from this location, although if it's really hot, you might want to cab. Download the Gett app so you can pay via credit card and have the taxi meet you at the hotel entrance. Would definitely stay here again!

We were especially impressed by the breakfast and the service of the staff. A special mention for Hamza who is fantastic and can never do too much to improve the breakfast experience.

Super service from Mor

I arrived here on Jerusalem day with my 7 year old daughter , and needed to get to a wedding far away. There were no taxis, trains or busses to get to the venue. Mor who was the most kind helpful person managed to find a taxi driver to come and collect us. She went above and beyond - if not for her we would not have gone to the wedding. She is a real life super hero !! Me , and my family thank you for what you did Mor.

A friendly place run by good people.

Reviewed By M7675OFaaronm

Jerusalem is full of rude people and insanity. Fortunately, the people who run this hotel have created a safe haven from such negativity. Whether i needed ice, a cab ride, or local suggestions, they took great care of me and my friends who stayed there. It is an old building, but the upkeep has it looking new and very clean. A nice escape off the main road that is full of angry honking drivers; i slept great in my room. If you have to visit this city, stay here. It is within walking distance of everything. For anything further, they have free bikes you can borrow, or they will call you a friendly cab driver (a rarity in that town not to be underappreciated).

Great Value

Reviewed By 806gaber

There are 3x Leonardo hotels in Jerusalem. I can't speak to the others, but our stay at the Leonardo Boutique on Monbaz Street was excellent. It's very conveniently located - we walked all around Jerusalem and to the old city from there. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was very nice, and the hotel's breakfast is STELLAR. Book it and enjoy your trip. Bonus - there is limited, but free parking in the hotel's garage.
