Frommer's Review
This well-run Anglican/Episcopal establishment offers private rooms housed in a cloister around an English garden. Accommodations are simple; they were redecorated in 1996 (new bathrooms were also installed at that time), and the ambience is both evocative and comfortable. Rooms vary, so ask if you can have a look at a few before taking one. There's a charming Jerusalem stone bar in the basement, and the entire very British enclave seems like the setting for a chapter of The Jewel in the Crown. The staff is knowledgeable and very helpful.
To find it, walk up Nablus Road, and you'll be approaching Saint George's Cathedral on the right. The hotel is in the cathedral compound, where Nablus Road and Saladin Street meet. Bus no. 27 comes right to the door of Saint George's (bus noise may be a problem for some).
Facilities:
Dining room; bar

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.
