“Great host and very good stay”
The accommodation is in an old house fully renovated, so you have the character of the old stone as well as the services of a modern house. Rooms are spacious and beds are very cosy. The location is perfect for visiting the old centre of Bethlehem yet it is silent at night. The host is very welcoming and happy to help as well as giving suggestions. Breakfast was plenty and very good, with both salty and sweet options.

“Experience Bethlehem the authentic way (and just beneath Nativity church)”
Irene and her husband created a warm-hearted and authentic place just beneath the Nativity church in the heart of Bethlehem. You will live in an 200 years old house in a newly reconstructed room which gives you the intense feeling of having changed time (although enjoying the amenities of modern times). Everything is made individually: From the warm welcome, to the room and the served breakfast (the bread comes from a little bakery beneath). On top the owners will tell you about all necessary sites of the city but - more important - about daily life (and traditions) of (Christian) Palestinians and their families. Learned a lot! The place is highly recommended and is truly a "hidden champion" in Bethlehem for everybody who likes to experience Bethlehem the authentic way!

Great host. Nice B&B house with 3 bedrooms for guests. The host lives with her family next door and she is quick to respond and help. Nicely decorated although the rooms downstairs are a bit dark. Ideally located in the old city. Great breakfast.

The accommodation was really worth the money. I travelled there with my parents and we had a full experience living in an old Palestinian house. Everything was clean, the host were available for any questions and the breakfast wonderful. Highly recommended!

“We had a wonderful time and could not have asked for a more lovely host. Thank you Irene. :)”
The host was just amazing made you feel at home, her hospitality was top notch. Breakfast was perfect and we did have some good conversation. She gave us some history about the accommodations and told us we were home. We would most definitely stay here again. Location was a short walking distance to the square and the markets.
