The timeless alleyways of the Old City, the Western Wall and Tower of David, the bustling Machne Yehuda market, the Mamilla Avenue and an abundance of New City attractions are all within easy walking distance from this landmark hotel in Jerusalem. Originally designed by Moshe Safdie, winner of the AIA Gold Medal, the David Citadel's well-planned public spaces and 385 luxuriously appointed rooms and suites have recently received a facelift by renowned Italian designer Piero Lissoni who introduced the warm atmosphere of Jerusalem through natural lighting, traditional colors and rich artworks painted by David Roberts during his 1834 Grand Tour. Lissoni's vision included oak parquet flooring, abundant greenery, soft lights and textured fabrics in a palette of rich colors that welcome guests today.

Arrived late Sunday Night. Front desk staff was very accommodating. The staff in the dinning room for breakfast does a great job. Waiters Samir and Sumer anticipate our needs, and keeps my coffee cup topped off. A special thank you to the manager Ehud. The housekeeping staff kept our room neat and clean daily. A shout out to Dina the H/K Manager for making sure my room was ready for me daily.

This hotel is the experience of a life time. Thank you Said made the stay regal and offered us every delight every morning at breakfast. He brought us iced coffee, hot coffee and ice water with grace and elegance according to the standards of the David Citadel. Bravo!

We stay at the David Citadel every year, and it’s always wonderful—there’s simply no thought of going anywhere else. The feeling of home we get here is unmatched. A special mention to Said, our waiter at breakfast each morning. We look forward to seeing him; he already knows what we like and always makes us feel so welcome. His warm service is one of the highlights of our stay.

The David Citadel is perfection! From the moment we arrived, the service was warm, attentive, and truly exceptional. The food is absolutely delicious — every meal felt like a treat. The kids’ room is enormous and full of activities — my husband even enjoyed joining in and playing with the kids! Our suite was spacious with gorgeous views, and the location couldn’t be better — walking distance to everything. If you want luxury, comfort, and family-friendly fun in Jerusalem, this is the place to be!
