Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Always an enjoyable stay! The staff are the best part of staying here. They are unfailingly kind, helpful, patient and friendly. Location is unbeatable, and easy walk to Salah al Din and the Old City.
The only (slight) disappointment was breakfast. There are not enough fresh and healthy options available. Brewed coffee and hot tea are included. But espresso drinks (lattes, Americano, cappucino,) are extra and expensive.
Great people, and always a nice experience. We will be back!
All the staff and super friendly and helpful. The room is very spacious. Even though the hotel is built in the 50’s, it is well maintained. The older lady that works the breakfast buffet is very helpful and kind. The breakfast is a nice variety. The man who works the main desk (I think his name is Sam) is super nice, accommodating, helpful and easy to talk too. The young man who’s the manager is also very nice and always greets you.
First off, I am an American so I have that point of view. The hotel reminds me of old Hollywood. It is a classic with tons of history that is showing it's age. I liked it a lot, my wife not so much. It was clean and the staff was great. The bed was hard and we never did figure out the AC system. It is in the Muslim district which we hadn't anticipated, but was no problem and everyone treated great. It's noisy outside, but that is living in any city. These are difficult times in Israel and we pray for peace.
Beautiful : always great satisfaction staying at National Hotel. Staff : very understanding and accommodating. The restaurant offers a variety of menus and the breakfast is a feast in itself. The restaurant's staff is very welcoming.
It's a great hotel for family: kids friendly. There is a park nearby where you could take your children to play. National Hotel is in the midst of the old city Jerusalem which makes it very convenient to move around. The environment in and around the hotel is very welcoming. This summer marked my 6th times staying at National Hotel, Jerusalem . I would recommend it to all.

Westchester, NY.
The hotel did not provide safe box; hotel towels very raggedy and old; breakfast food was can fruit and they charge extra for cappucino or other coffees that where included in the breakfast fee. Overall poor staff helpfulness. Taxi drivers there were nice and helpful.
