Ron Hotel

Friendly and Safe, Noisy and Fun Always someone at the front desk ready to be helpful and answer tourist type questions. Basic breakfast of eggs, toast, tomatoes hummus, and coffee; served on the pleasant rooftop; chance to meet other travelers. Perfect location for visiting the Old City, seeing the modern museums and visiting other areas of Israel using public transportation. Conveniently on the tram line and on a busy shopping street, however that means it is a bit noisy.

It’s a hostel. The area is awesome even though you will need earplugs if you are a light sleeper.

I loved it the moment I walked in. It's definitely a hostel, not a five-star hotel and, for its location, it is outstanding value. It occupies a prime spot on Jaffa Street, a few minutes' walk from the Old City, with Zion Square just opposite. Street entertainers and musicians abound, there are loads of shops and restaurants and there is a great inner city vibe. The tram service takes you straight to the train and bus station or, in the other direction, to the Old City unless you prefer the short walk. The decor is old and traditional. Clearly the place could be fully renovated, but that risks ruining the charm and certainly putting the prices up. Facilities are basic but clean.... although the bathrooms (private and shared) fell below an acceptable standard. However, it is a hostel! There is a small shared kitchen and a fantastic roof terrace overlooking all the action. Some camped on the roof and this was where we were served our Israeli breakfast, included in the price. There is a very warm welcome from staff who are helpful and knowledgeable. If you want to stay in the middle of Jerusalem and don't need a five-star hotel, there is nowhere better. Four stars. Redo the bathrooms to a basic level for that extra star.
