Kosher Resorts & Luxury Hotels in Jerusalem, and the Judean Hills
The Orient By Isrotel, Jerusalem
The Orient By Isrotel is part of the Isrotel Exclusive Collection, and the newest addition to the chain. It is also the first Isrotel Hotel in Jerusalem. Located in the heart of the German Colony, you are within walking distance from many places to visit: the first train station, Mishkanot Sha’ananim, The Windmill, the Jerusalem Theater, the Old City, the city center and many more. Built on a historical old templar building that have gone through preservation, the hotel creates a perfect blend of modernism and history.
Within the modern confines of the hotel you will find a spa, the same model as the “Ya’arot HaCarmel” spa, that we have already mentioned in the section about the north of Israel. The Spa has an indoor heated pool and facilities to enjoy all year round.
In the lobby you will find the Khan restaurant, an all day dairy restaurant, aptly named for the historical theater nearby the hotel. On the roof of the hotel you will find the Orientop restaurant with a breathtaking view of the old city, and the new evenings only, fine dining meat experience that matches the view and the exclusivity of the hotel.

King David Hotel, Jerusalem
There isn’t much more to say about the King David Hotel by Dan Hotels in Jerusalem that hasn’t been said before: the history, the location, the world leaders and famous personalities who have stayed there and so on.
What you may have not known is that besides having a premier restaurant “La Regency,” a beautiful spa, and the aesthetics of the grounds, the King David also offers a very special all you can eat brunch on the patio every Friday!

The David Citadel, Jerusalem
With one of the best locations in Jerusalem, the David Citadel Hotel is known for its hospitality, reminiscent of the song “Everybody Knows Your Name,” and some of the largest hotel rooms in the city. The hotel has many offerings for its guests including an outdoor pool, a luxury spa and much more. Once you walk outside of the hotel, you are a stone’s throw away from the Mamilla Mall, the old city and the city center.
If you are hungry while staying there, there is the Grill Bar at the pool, where you will find a variety of grilled meats, cocktails and cold beverages. In addition, the hotel has recently reopened its iconic restaurant “Veranda” with cuisine that focuses on cooking with an open fire and charcoal. Sharing dishes are abundant which will let everyone enjoy a taste of what the restaurant has to offer.

Cramim Spa & Wine, Kiryat Anavim
Located in the heart of the Judean hills, the Cramim Spa & Wine is in the heart of wine country.
Another hotel from the Isrotel Exclusive Collection, the hotel offers a unique experience for those who are willing to travel out of the city. What you will find at the hotel are wine tours of the hotel’s winery and vineyard, special health treatments at the spa inspired by VinoTherapy (red grapes are used in skin treatments!), and an outdoor pool with a front-row seat to nature.
The Hotel has a bar on the premises that offers all the wines grown locally by the hotel and there is also a tasting room that can be booked in advance for a private tasting. The “Shiraz” Restaurant offers a beautiful breakfast buffet and a nighttime-only exclusive meat restaurant where the chef cooks right in front of you.

Gordonia Hotel, Maaleh Hachamisha
The Gordonia Hotel is in a quiet, secluded, location, right between Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, at Ma’aleh Hachamisha.
The hotel was built in the heart of the Jerusalem forest and thus the grounds abound with natural beauty and history. Guests can enjoy the spa, and the outdoor pool and even hire a private chef to join you for your stay (with advance booking). In the private suites of the hotel, you also will find a private pool and jacuzzi in every suite. All guests of the hotel must be 18 and over.
