The Mount of Olives is an affordable family-run hotel situated at the summit of the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem, next door to the Chapel of the Ascension of Christ, and a five minute walk to the historic Garden of Gethsemane.
Property Description The Mount of Olives is a small and affordable, family-run hotel situated in the heart of Jerusalem's historical center. It is fair to say that the hotel is literally surrounded by famous churches and holy sites commemorating events mentioned in the Bible including the Chapel of Ascension, the Pater Noster Church, Dominus Flevit and the Garden of Gethsemane. A walk to St. Stephan's Gate in the Old City takes about 15-20 minutes via the Garden of Gethsemane. The view along the way is stunning.
Our rooms are simple and include an en suite bath/shower, central heat and a telephone. The hotel has public computers for Internet access and Wi-Fi for laptops in and around the lobby and reception.
Our hotel is ideal for independent travellers, budget conscious pilgrims, Holy Land tour groups, and archaeological excursions. We are a simple accommodation, in a homey atmosphere, at an outstanding value.
Directions From the airport, take the Ayalon Highway east to Jerusalem. It is approx. a 50 minute drive. Upon arrival, follow the signs to the Old City. Go clockwise around the historic golden walls of Jerusalem from Damascus Gate to Lion's Gate. The incline of the Mount of Olives is just opposite Lion's Gate. Continue along the road a bit further until you reach the The Garden of Gethsemene. Look for the Church of All Nations, turn left and continue eastward & up. After a fairly steep climb, the twisting & narrow road will suddenly end in a "T". Turn right and drive about 15 meters. The hotel is located next to the Chapel of the Ascension.
