“I highly recommend this place.”
Everything was fantastic (the location, the room, the breakfast, how clean and comfortable everything was and the view from the roof) but best of all was the peaceful atmosphere and the responsiveness, warmth and helpfulness of the people running the place. They were very decent and dignified people who kindly let me stay beyond the check-out time as my flight wasn't 'til late and even answered 'tourist information' questions for me about public transport and postboxes! This was my favourite place of anywhere I've ever stayed and I felt completely relaxed from the moment I set foot inside.

“Great location with very helpful staff.”
Right in the old part of the city. The staff were extremely helpful and could not do enough to make us comfortable. I have a broken leg at present and the staff went out of their way to help me, moved us to a room on the lower floor and helped with transport around the old city.

“A wonderful stay in Jerusalem Old City”
William's Guest House is a home away from home in the old city of Jerusalem. Located close to the Ethiopian Church, right within the cobbled alleyways which mark the historic city, the accommodation combines modern facilities with an old world environment which is only to be understood by experience. The house itself is old style, stone walls, wrought iron rails, old pictures and wooden furniture which breathes another world. The room was clean, comfortable, modern. The kitchen is open access with 24 hour tea and coffee. Breakfast stuff is in the fridge and you make it yourself per convenience. On an early day, we packed our own breakfast, on another day we left early then returned for a late breakfast- very convenient. You can warm up your own meal or make eggs if you wish. Lovely shops, cafes and eateries around. We arrived from Tel Aviv Airport by public transport. Took the train into Jerusalem central bus station, then line 1 to Damascus Gate stop. Short walk from there. We did not have much luggage, so this was very doable. Check in was smooth. We called William on the doorbell, were allowed into the courtyard. He arrived promptly to hand over keys and explain arrangements. On day out, we simply left keys in the house. He was contactable when needed but we had our own privacy in the space. Everything is walkable in the old city. A Jerusalem experience is incomplete without staying in here. William's guesthouse is a perfect option.

“Great stay with Michael and his family! Extremely great hosts!”
The hospitality from Micheal and his family was unreal, like perhaps nothing I have experienced before. The property was good value for money, clean and comfy. Hosts were extremely accommodating with any requests.

“Great guesthouse”
The location was great in the old town. Not far from the Holy Sepulchre or other major cites. Staff and owner are exceptional. The accommodation was clean with a selection of fruit, tea, coffee and hot chocolate, eggs, pita and hummus. Also close to very nice restaurants and mini markets too. It will be my first choice if available if I return to Jerusalem

“Best Place to Stay in Jerusalem old city.”
The best place we have stayed in if seveal years, Michael was alwas near by to help us. The breakfast was not continental, it was a full breakfast with different options. The location is exceptional so close to the 8th station of La Via Dolorosa. They even help us with services not really included.

“Excellent place and people!”
William's Guest House is a beautiful place, located at a perfect spot within the Old City. The people working for the Guest House are exceptionally helpful and friendly, resolving any need that might occur. William is an excellent person, hospitable and caring for his guests. He even arranged to get all the help that I needed the last day, in order to bring mt luggage to Ben Gurion airportein Tel Aviv at 7 in the morning. I would recommend William's Guest House to anyone visiting Jerusalem, since this Guest House was a great experience for me!

“Beautiful guest house close to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. Highly recommended!”
Great location just 5 minutes from the Church of the Holy Sepulchre and the New Gate. It’s about 10 minutes from Jaffa Gate. The guest house Is on the corner of Ethiopian Monastery St and Al Battikh Ascent. The staff are really friendly and helpful. The guest house is pristine, cleanly decorated with excellent a/c and WiFi, a handy kitchen with a coffee maker, toaster, toaster oven and hot plate. Breakfast food is kept in the fridge so you can help yourself in the morning. There was a TV in the room which I didn’t use. There were plenty of nice toiletries in the bathroom and clean towels. The roof space has a view of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. Nearby there are a couple of small grocery stores, a bakery, pizza restaurant and an ATM, as well as many souvenir shops!
