“Wonderful stay in Nazareth!”
The hostel is located in the center of Nazareth. The building looks historical but beautiful. There has a lovely yard, it’s very nice to have a rest there. The room has air conditioner, and each bed has their own charger and light. And of course the breakfast is very tasty, they serve many options! I have a great day after this wonderful meal.

“Cute getaway in Nazareth”
Cute hotel with a nice courtyard. We had a nice big room with plenty of space. Staff was nice and very helpful. I really liked the cute street it was on. Can easily explore the old city from here. Nice place to stay with family. Breakfast was decent.

I was greeted super friendly by Shareef who had checked me in at reception. I loved the entire place whether it was the architecture of the building, the facilities like the shared kitchen, bathrooms/shower or all the places where you could sit and relax. I was saddened to leave after only two nights - but that will keep me wanting more! You can expect me to come back sometime in the future. The hostel and the nearby culture café Liwan have changed my entire perspective on Nazareth and the Palestinian people and I will forever cherish the change I went through while I stayed there. The arabic coffee and breakfast have been excellent and I enjoyed every taste of it. After a long day of whatever activity I was doing, I especially enjoyed the peaceful and quiet atmosphere in the common seating area which is "outside" at night/evening while watching the moon and listening to some music. I stayed in a female only dormitory and the beds/mattresses/blankets felt like the warmest hug you could possibly have. I had to say goodbye to the bed I slept in - not only because of the gratitude of having shelter, even if you paid for it - because my own bed is nowhere near as cozy and comfortable as the hostel's! The hostel and staff have made my stay wonderful and I want to thank Mishleen and Shareef dearly for being welcoming to me. I really enjoyed talking to both individuals and I am looking forward to seeing both (hopefully) the next time. :)

Really well situated at the center of Nazareth. All the people at the reception were really friendly and helpful, breakfast was great and the place feels like it has a lot of history! Which means that the rooms are old as well, of course. Nothing special, and could have been cleaner, and you have to pre warm a boiler for about 20 min before showering, which wasn’t a problem for us. There is a very nice courtyard to eat and hang out in; the place has a relaxed atmosphere! You have to park at a parking lot a few minutes away and walk the rest, as it’s in a pedestrian zone. The parking costs around 60. All in all perfect for one night in Nazareth!

Fauzi Azar is a really lovely place. The house itself is a very old and beautiful and located in the old market. The ceilings are very high (like 5m) and beautifully colored. The breakfast is tasty, you can drink also arabic coffee all day and night downstairs. The hostel has outside and inside hanging out areas and a well equipped kitchen. The staff is extremely nice and welcoming. The room I stayed in had enough space (not like in other hostels where you sleep head to head with others).
