The Hotel Writes
"The American Colony Hotel is the most beautiful hotel in Jerusalem where East meets West in this quiet oasis set in the heart of the Holy Land close to the Old City which teems in history and holy sites. Our famous hotel combines and preserves the elegance and style of the past with the comfort and technology of today. Formerly a Pasha's palace built in the 19th century the American Colony Hotel is located just north of the Old City walls only a few minutes walk from Damascus Gate and within easy access of the main vehicular routes, a perfect base for business, pleasure and pilgrimage to the Holy City."
