Lots of lazy time by the pool. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### AS, UK 15 Apr 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Understandably a bit faded at the edges.

However if you are staying for two or three weeks it is not so great. The breakfast is almost the same every day with no fresh fruit other than the occasional water melon. I got very tired of tinned pineapple! Also the dinner options were limited. The tent restaurant was advertised as 'Grillin and Chillin' but the grilled foods only included deep fried French fries with no alternative. The area also was not ideal due to the proximity to the Wall where there were some protests particularly on Fridays. ##### Mary Stayed 18 nights in Jul 2017 ### 2/10 Terrible #### tarek 4 Aug 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### WORST HOTEL IN BETHLEHEM ! WORST STAY EVER !! AFTER THE BRAND "INTERCONTINENTAL" LEFT THE HOTEL IT BECAME LIKE "A HOMELESS" HOTEL. DOESNT DESERVE TO GET 3 STARS ! SO DIRTY, THE SERVICE IS TOO BAD, NO OTHER WORDS TO DESCRIBE THE MISERABLE SITUATION OF THE HOTEL THAT USED TO BE RATED AS THE TOP IN BETHLEHEM ! WE'LL NEVER GET BACK TO THERE. NEVER !! ##### tarek Stayed 18 nights in Jul 2017 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 11 Jul 2017 Disliked: Staff & service #### Nice place with poor service The hotel location are excellent , the old building and the hotel design is wonderful and give me anew experience. But the service is very poor , no stafff , slow feed back Its like ( help ur self ) no one is here to serve u Swimming pool is good and food is not that good It deserve 3.5 The price per night is expensive compared with hotel service ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2017 ### 4/10 Poor #### Susan 22 Jun 2017 #### Not Recommended I recently booked a seven-night stay through Hotels.com at the Jacir Palace Hotel in Bethlehem in March of 2017. I ended up canceling the last night due to the fact that my traveling companion had to rearrange her round trip air itinerary because El Al Israel Airlines refused to let her board the flight. We notified the hotel desk in advance and they agreed to refund the credit card for one night's stay in the amount of $120. After multiple emails over the period of the last 10 weeks, most of which have gone unanswered, the hotel has still not refunded the $120. When Hotels.com called Jacir Palace, to inquire about the status of the impending refund, they were advised that there is no record of a refund request on file. 
Although I have no complaints about the condition of the hotel or the staff I can’t recommend the Jacir Palace Hotel because they are not responsive at all to email communications and have not followed thru re the cancellation/refund that they agreed to. I was advised by Hotels.com that there was nothing that they could do to assist me. They suggested that I dispute the charge with the credit card company. It's disappointing that Hotels.com does not hold their partner hotels accountable. ##### Susan Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2017 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Leon, Manchester UK 3 May 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Booked 14 nights, left after first night, VERY BAD Bullet point Summary 1. We emailed before our trip to see if hotel supplied power adapters, they said they do, they lied, and our phones were dead that night after long day flying. 2. Would not take Pound Sterling despite saying they do. 3. Told us they can exchange sterling to shekel but when I got to counter they said they cant. Then changed to say they can but will have to give us a poor rate and we are better going elsewhere? WHY? We are your guest so be fair. 4. Room was very dirty, floor not hoovered and mini fridge had blown up and was nothing but a shell. Duvets and pillow cases had holes in them. 5. Breakfast included, if you like mash potato and insect coated stale bread 6. Website states pool is open in Spring and it wasn't. Although we went in late April during 30'c heat. 7. They did nothing when we complained about adaptor and room cleanliness. 8. When we decided to leave the next day, I refused to pay the massive $120 a night fee based on the fact they had not supplied what they should have and I demanded a discount. The response was to call security. Jacir Palace almost ruined our holiday. As it is they badly let us down as I was really looking forward to days lounging by the pool and swimming with my 2 yr old daughter. We were lucky enough to find another hotel with room for us as it was easter weekend which is a busy time. I strongly advise anyone to AVOID this place. ##### Leon ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 5 Apr 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Beautiful hotel, great location to walk to old city and see the western wall as well as visit the Banksy museum to get more info on the long history of conflict ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 2 Apr 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Good rooms in an ok hotel Decent hotel! A really Big hotel and since the room was not in the Malin building it was very confusing getting to the room, Teo elevators and some walking distance. The pool was empty so we could not use it. However they were friendly and tried their best to help us. Not the most modern Roma but good, beds comfortable and decent sized. Breakfast good. Betlehem and the West bank=great! ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Jamal 1 Apr 2017 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Disappointed Hotel needs a lot of improvements- no towels in the rooms- phone not working- breakfast was awful. Beds need to be renewed- old and sagging. ##### Jamal ### 10/10 Excellent #### JPN, 日本 29 Mar 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 良い意味で泊まるホテルを間違えました。 テルアビブで1泊1万円の中流ホテルに滞在したのち、ベツレヘムへ移動し、こちらの同じ価格帯のジャシル•パレスに泊まりました。 いやはや、同じ一万円でもここまでホテルのランクが違うとは思いませんでした...。というのも、前述の通りイスラエルの首都テルアビブで1万円のホテルというと中流ホテルになるのですが、どうもパレスチナで同じ値段を出すと高級ホテルのスイートルーム？に泊まれてしまうようです。 とても広いホテルで、部屋も上から2番目の角部屋でした。 スタッフの対応は丁寧で、ベッドメイキングのお兄さんもとてもフレンドリーで好感が持てました。 ただし、一つ注意点があります。現地で滞在する際、タクシーなんかに乗るとき、運転手がほぼ確実にどこに泊まってるのか聞いてくるのですが、間違ってもジャシルパレスとは答えないようにしましょう。 というのも、ジャシルパレスは現地でも高級ホテルとして有名なようで、一度ここに泊まってると分かればぼったくろうとしてきます。 ##### JPN ### 4/10 Poor #### Muhammed 19 Nov 2016 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Average Bethlehem was an interesting city to visit. The hotel, however, was not great. The hotel was obviously a grand hotel once upon a time, when it belonged to the the Intercontinental group. It is now tired, and it shows. We were not allowed an early check-in, and the hotel did not seem to have a secure locked room to store our luggage, hence we were told to leave it in the reception lobby. I must add that it was still safely there when we got back from exploring. We were given a room with 2 twin beds instead of a king size, and were told that there were no rooms with king size beds available, even though the hotel did not appear to be full. They then just joined the 2 beds together. Breakfast was not great. A large variety but not the best or most fresh. The hotel should consider making a smaller variety and concentrate on quality instead. Also, while the room was clean the lobby area was quite dusty. ##### Muhammed ### 8/10 Good #### Ginne, Süddeutschland 10 Oct 2016 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Sehr schönes Hotel in guter Lage Die Lage und Architektur des Hotels ist klasse. Sehr schöne Pool Anlage die bei dem tollen Wetter auch täglich benutzt wurde. Die Ordentlichkeit im Pool/Gartenbereich könnte verbessert werden, oft sah man Flaschen noch tagelang herumstehen. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, das Frühstück gut und ausreichend, man fand im sehr schönen Restaurant immer Platz trotz manchmal großer Touristengruppen. Das Hotel liegt nahe am Checkpoint zu Jerusalem so dass man als Tourist die Jerusalemer Altstadt sehr schnell und einfach über Taxi/Bus erreichen kann. Bethlehem Zentrum (Geburtskirche) erreicht man in ca. 15-20 Minuten zu Fuß, mit Taxi in 3-4 Minuten. Wir sind immer zu Fuß da man weitaus mehr von der sehr schönen Altstadt sieht und fast immer sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite (Wegweisung) Leute trifft. Ich reise geschäftlich jährlich mehr als 150,000 Meilen und habe in meinem Leben schon so manchen Ort gesehen, die Freundlichkeit der Leute von Bethlehem ist außergewöhnlich. Wir haben in den 6 Tagen im Hotel viele Ziele im Westjordanland (Totes Meer, Nablus (klasse!!!), Jericho) aber auch Israel (Tel Aviv, Jaffa (bis auf alten orientalischen Markt wie typische Mittelmeerstadt) sowie natürlich die Altstadt von Jerusalem besucht. Am besten die Touristen Hotspots in Jerusalem vermeiden, wenn 5 Busladungen gleichzeitig dort sind wird es oft viele zu eng. ##### Ginne ### 6/10 Okay #### Ayesha, Durban, South Africa 2 Oct 2016 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Not the "Grand Lady" it was in 2000 I first stayed at Jacir Palace in Sept 2000 (just before the Intifada)- it was magnificent- from décor, to service and food; and I really looked forward to returning to the splendor of the hotel. However, I was somewhat disappointed- the hotel is now jaded, the housekeeping is awful and the breakfasts were the same for all 5 days that I stayed there. It is definitely not 5-Star quality. I guess it is ok if it is a one night stay, but the "cracks" in the system become glaring, if staying longer. I do not believe that one needs to call each time for amenities that are meant to be replenished daily. The staff are friendly bit this does not make up for its downsides. It has so much potential and if restored to its previous "glory", i would definitely return, but not in its current state, when there are hotels in the vicinity that provide excellent service. ##### Ayesha ### 10/10 Excellent #### Muhammed 18 Sept 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort الاقامة جيدة المعاملة جيدة الغرف مرتبة ونظيفة ##### Muhammed ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Leonardo Laura Beach & Splash Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Leonardo-Laura-Beach-Splash-Resort.h1204390.Hotel-Information) > > [Lebay Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Larnaca-Hotels-Lebay-Beach-Hotel.h19531459.Hotel-Information) > > [Paphos Gardens Holiday Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Paphos-Gardens-Holiday-Resort.h965999.Hotel-Information) > > [Louis Imperial Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Louis-Imperial-Beach.h1243610.Hotel-Information) > > [Ivi Mare - Designed for adults by Louis Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-The-Ivi-Mare-Designed-For-Adults.h26779788.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Beach Resort Larnaca](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Larnaca-Hotels-Radisson-Beach-Resort-Larnaca.h67290585.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Cypria Bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Leonardo-Cypria-Bay-All-Inclusive.h21123270.Hotel-Information) > > [Avlida Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Avlida-Hotel.h1144626.Hotel-Information) > > [Theo Sunset Bay Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Theo-Sunset-Bay-Hotel.h2590033.Hotel-Information) > > [Olympic Lagoon Resort - Paphos](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Olympic-Lagoon-Resort-Paphos-All-Inclusive.h114932.Hotel-Information) > > [Avanti Holiday Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Avanti-Holiday-Village.h1099875.Hotel-Information) > > [Azia Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Azia-Resort-And-Spa.h918584.Hotel-Information) > > [Louis Ledra Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Louis-Ledra-Beach.h1676581.Hotel-Information) > > [Louis Phaethon Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Louis-Phaethon-Beach.h1234186.Hotel-Information) > > [Atlantica Akteon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Akteon-Holiday-Village.h1678073.Hotel-Information) > > [Mare Paphos](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Atlantica-Mare-Village-Paphos-All-Inclusive.h49948240.Hotel-Information) > > [Atlantica Golden Beach -Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Atlantica-Golden-Beach.h19186768.Hotel-Information) > > [Mayfair Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Mayfair-Hotel.h1509177.Hotel-Information) > > [Parklane, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, Limassol](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pyrgos-Hotels-Parklane.h21841.Hotel-Information) > > [Constantinou Bros Athena Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Constantinou-Bros-Athena-Beach-Hotel.h1062938.Hotel-Information) > > [Kefalos - Damon Hotel Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Kefalos-Damon-Hotel-Apartments.h2304954.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Plaza Cypria Maris Beach Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Leonardo-Plaza-Cypria-Maris-Beach-Hotel-Spa.h16206071.Hotel-Information) > > [Venus Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Venus-Beach-Hotel.h1457659.Hotel-Information) > > [St. George Beach Hotel & Spa Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-St-George-Hotel-Spa-Beach-Resort.h1330184.Hotel-Information) > > [Alexander The Great Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Alexander-The-Great-Beach-Hotel.h69450.Hotel-Information) > > [Mayfair Gardens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Mayfair-Gardens.h9798381.Hotel-Information) > > [Olympic Lagoon Resort – Ayia Napa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Larnaca-Hotels-Olympic-Lagoon-Resort-Ayia-Napa.h13184205.Hotel-Information) > > [Queen's Bay Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Queens-Bay-Hotel.h68433.Hotel-Information) > > [King Evelthon Beach Hotel & Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-King-Evelthon-Beach-Hotel-Resort.h8803964.Hotel-Information) > > [Mare Ayia Napa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Larnaca-Hotels-Atlantica-Mare-Village-Ayia-Napa.h82957.Hotel-Information)
