Moriah Classic

Spacious, luxurious and grand in the Israeli style, and well located for the Old City and East Jerusalem, this busy hotel has Internet access, meeting rooms, pool and fitness centre and enjoys panoramic views.

Address: 9 St Georges Street, Jerusalem, Israel

Telephone: (02) 532 0000

New Imperial

With an air of slightly shabby faded grandeur, the New Imperial dates from the 1880s, when it was the city's most luxurious hotel. Today it offers a place to stay for those on a budget who want a great location. The sweeping staircase in the lobby sets the tone - all the rooms have high-ceilings and en-suite facilities. Some of the rooms have balconies overlooking the streets of the Christian quarter. The hotel has an Internet lounge and coffee shop.

The King Solomon Hotel

This 5-star hotel located in the centre of Jerusalem caters to religious Jewish travellers by offering a Glatt Kosher menu and Shabbat lights in the bedrooms, and separate male and female swim times in the pool. The stunning views (the hotel pool overlooks the Judean hills and from the roof you can even see the Dead Sea) make up for the slightly outdated décor. The centrepiece of the lobby is a globe-shaped metal sculpture of Jerusalem, created by the English-born artist Frank Meisler. The hotel is just 10 minutes' walk from the Jaffa Gate of the Old City and the Montefiore Windmill and Yemin Moshe are close by.

The Olive Tree Hotel

With kitsch Arabesque décor (which might not be to everyone's taste) in the public areas, this hotel in the American Colony neighbourhood offers good value. Rooms are subdued and functional. The hotel is in easy walking distance of East Jerusalem and the Old City but it's a longer walk or taxi ride to central Jerusalem. However, the health club complete with pool and sauna make it an attractive option.

Address: 23 St George Street, Jerusalem, Israel

Telephone: (02) 541 0410

Tulip Inn Jerusalem Golden Walls

This is a conveniently located hotel - just outside the Old City walls and a short walk from most of the main sites. Rooms are modest but comfortable with cable TV. The western side of the hotel tends to be noisy as it overlooks the East Jerusalem bus station, while rooms at the front have a view over the Old City. The hotel has a bar and restaurant and offers good value for money.

King David

Price: Luxury

One of Israel's most luxurious and prestigious hotels, the majestic King David was built in the 1930s. It has all modern facilities, with fine views towards the Old City and is a historic building in its own right - when used during the British mandate as the British Army HQ, it was the scene of a dramatic anti-British bombing by militant Zionists.

Address: 23 King David Street, Jerusalem, Israel
