Christ Church Guest House

Frommer's Review

This is one of the best-located hospices, situated just inside the Jaffa Gate, next to the post office and across from the entrance to Tower of David. Through the big iron gates you'll find a flagstone courtyard with trees and benches, a century-old English-style church that now houses a Protestant/Messianic congregation, and very simple single, double, and triple rooms with private bathrooms in a series of atmospheric 19th-century buildings. The gates to Christ Church Guest House close at 11pm, and stay locked until 6am, except by special arrangement. As with most good guesthouses, this one is heavily booked during the summer months and at Christian holidays -- best to reserve well in advance for those times. Meals cost $13 extra for lunch and dinner. This establishment also runs the nearby inexpensive Coffee Shop and organizes tours and lectures oriented toward the Protestant Messianic movement; however those guests who are not evangelical are under no pressure to join. A protected parking area is an added feature, although the management cannot take responsibility for cars parked there.
