Crowne Plaza ReviewFor more than 20 years, this landmark tower on a hill at the western edge of the city was the Jerusalem Hilton, and some Jerusalemites still refer to it as such, which makes for confusion. Public areas, though spacious, are a bit jumbled. Panoramic views from the guest rooms, most with small balconies, are a plus, but the rooms themselves, though comfortable and well equipped, are not remarkable. Crowne rooms offer use of a lounge with snacks, and pampering attention. The location is perfect for conventions at the neighboring Binyinei Ha-Uma Convention Center, and the shopping arcade is good, but you're far from West Jerusalem's cafe-and-restaurant scene. The excellent (kosher) Kohinoor Indian restaurant is on the premises. Facilities: Restaurant; dining room; cafe; bar; small outdoor pool; miniature golf; tennis courts; health club; sauna; Jacuzzi; children's activities in season; playground; free downtown shuttle; business center; shopping arcade; room service; laundry service; nonsmoking rooms; synagogue; rooms for those w/limited mobility Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
