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.

Staying David citadel in Jerusalem. Was travelling with my elderly mum. We didn’t have transport from the airport and I figured getting a cab would be too stressful. Literally last minute on the day of arrival I called from London airport and spoke to Naeem the concierge who arrange a vip transfer with a wonderful driver Adam. It was just a few hours in advance. The meet and greet was seemless. Naeem was brilliant. Love this hotel.

We had an excellent Sukkot stay at the David Citadel Hotel. This is probably our tenth time here, and every year the experience is so unique and fabulous. The breakfast was great. Evgeni’s omelettes and attention were the best as always, and we really enjoyed having the small conversations with him. We'd like to say a special thank you to supervisor Alaa Surri, who helped us throughout our stay with the issues we faced with great courtesy. We would also like to mention hotel manager Baha Haddad, reception manager Munir, and the dining room waiter Samir. The hotel pool was wonderful. It is large and lively. The dishes were great, and the servers there were kind and caring. Thank you for making our vacation delightful, once again. Surely we’ll come again.

Samer mured and seid were both amazing. We had such a wonderful experience, thanks especially to these two waiters. They were incredibly attentive, warm, and accommodating, and truly went above and beyond to make our meal special. Their service was exceptional from beginning to end. They are a real asset to the hotel, and we look forward to coming back!
