Sami is a great host and conversation partner. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The lobby is spacious and cosy - perfect to drink coffee, read a book or watch the news on TV. The location is perfect if you want to get to know Aqabat Jabr (refugee camp). You can reach Jericho city center by foot.

“Awesome stay in Jericho”
We loved our stay in Sami Hostel. All adventurous travelers should stay here. It’s located in a refugee camp, it’s absolutely safe to walk around and a shared taxi stop is right in front of the hostel, it takes only 5 minutes to get to Jericho center and it runs very often. It’s a perfect place to see the real life of Palestinians. Sami hostel has fast Wi-Fi, basic facilities but you find everything you need here. Owner is friendly and very helpful - he picked us up when we arrived which we appreciated. The view from roof is absolutely gorgeous.

“Staying at Sami Hostel was one of the highlights of our trip”
The family and staff at Sami Hostel are very very welcoming and helpful. We got to share an iftar there and Saleh helped us get a taxi one time when we needed a ride back to the Hostel. All in all we had an unforgettable time in Jericho.

“Not much for the high price”
Very friendly hosts, made us coffee when we came and gave us all the necessary information about Jericho and public transport in the West Bank. Cozy common area. Bakery and supermarket directly across the street.

We really enjoyed our stay at Sami Hostel in Jericho. When we arrived, we were greeted with exceptionally warm and friendly service from Saleh. Our room was spacious, simple and met all our needs. The location is only a 5-10 minute drive from central Jericho and is very close to the beautiful Wadi Qelt. We would highly recommend Sami Hostel. Shukraan for our great stay, Saleh and the team!

“We had a amazing stay and met very welcoming, kind people.”
We absolutely enjoyed our stay at Sami Hostel! Sami was a super nice and welcoming host! The hostel was easy to reach and the rooms were confortable. In the evening we were invinted to break the feast of ramadan and had a very delicious dinner. We spend the evening together with Sami, his family and friends and with guests from the hostel talking and playing games. Also we received great tips and recomendations from Sami around the area. He made sure we always felt safe and very welcome. Thank you!

“Warm and welcoming hostel”
The family-like atmosphere in the hostel made us feel very welcome the minute we walked into the door. Sami was very flexible with our wish to switch to a private room which was comfortable. As it was Ramadan, we were invited to have dinner with the other guests and friends from the area. We had interesting and insightful conversations and enjoyed spending time with everyone. The hostel is a great location to explore Tiberias by foot and go hiking e.g., to the nearby monastery. Everyone we met in the neighbourhood was curiuous on where we came from.

“We fully recommend a stay there!”
The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, the owner, Sami, is currently not located there, but his sons carry on managing the hostel, doing it with a lot of love, care and excitement. We very much enjoyed our stay, the company of the others, the people and the kindness in the area.

“Big hostel in nice neighbourhood”
It's a big multi storey hostel in Aqbat Jaber - out of Jericho proper but in really authentic and interesting neighbourhood. Taking a big taxi to Jericho is 3 shekels. There is a big bakery in front as well as other shops. People and staff are very friendly and helpful.
