About Petra Hostel, Jerusalem

@ 1 King David Street In the Old City of Jerusalem

Built in 1830, the Petra Hotel & Hostel was the Old City`s first hotel. Its Ottoman architecture, arched ceilings and beautifully tiled floors make even the dorm rooms something special. The rooftop offers a magical view of the Christian, Muslim and Jewish quarters, and guests are invited to sleep under the stars (weather permitting).

Located inside Jaffa Gate at the entrance to the Arab "souk" (bazaar), the hotel is within easy walking distance of holy sites such as the Western Wall, Temple Mount, and Church of the Holy Sepulcher, as well as tourist precincts such as Sheikh Jarrah and the Ben Yehuda pedestrian mall.
