Allenby 2 Bed & Breakfast

The facility needs a major renovation to be comfortable. Cleanness needs to be improved. Breakfast is o.k. Owner is not much responsible.

I was happy with our stay. Nir is a very good host. If you have any questions he will work hard to get you what you need. I would happily stay here again. Very nice people.

Allenby is very convenient for transport - near the bus terminal, train station and tram.

Nir, the proprietor, is a great host. Staff were friendly and helpful. I liked the location. Walkable to the walled city or a short cab ride. Rooms are basic but ours was comfortable. I would stay there again (and there were several people I encountered there who had stayed there multiple times).

Such a perfect location -- easy to walk around and super easy to catch rail or buses etc. Nir was just a joy to talk with and very conscientious. Nice simple Israeli breakfast offered and a feeling of Home in inviting use of the kitchen. I enjoyed meeting the other guests as well.

Loved this place. If you're not renting a vehicle, as I did not, this is the place for you. A minute's walk to the tram, which takes you to the old city in 10 minutes one way, or Yad Veshem 10 minutes in the other direction. Also a minute's walk to both the train and bus stations, which makes visiting any part of Israel straightforward, not mention cheap and more environmentally sustainable. Ben Gurion is 20 minutes away by train, making arrival and departure about as easy as can be imagined. To top it all off, the staff are friendly and accommodating. There are delightful sitting areas outside, too.

I like the cuteness of the property and the proximity to everything central

Schimmel im Zimmer und ein stinkender Duschvorhang

Great staff was great, the bed was comfortable

Jolie maison, bien située mais studio décrépi ! Matelas du canapé convertible moisi, taies d’oreiller auréolées et jaunes ! Clim convertible ne fonctionnait pas en mode chauffage, désagréable en février !

Sehr nette Vermieterin, Unterkunft bzw. Haus der Vermieterin etwas schwer zu finden. Wegen Suche kurz Auto abstellen, 2 Minuten mit Knöllchen sehr teuer, 500 Schekel gleich 120 Euro!! Frühstück sehr lecker, original, In die Altstadt zu Fuß gut erreichbar bzw. auch mit Straßenbahn. Nachts auch ruhig

Struttura accogliente, ci aspettavamo la pulizia giornaliera della camera che non è avvenuta. buona la colazione

階段が狭く、荷物を運ぶのが大変でした。が、活動の拠点としてセントラルステーションが直近にあったので非常に便利でした。

Great Israeli breakfast! Meet travelers from around the world during breakfast. Convenient location next to the Central bus station. Clean room & helpful staff. The building in Kikar Allenby/Allenby Circle was difficult to find at night. It would be helpful to have a sign outside.

Nice and friendly in the morning but a bit tricky on arrival in the afternoon when tv not working and couldn't find the wifi password etc. But good value overall and amazing breakfast!

Old property not refurbished. Old furnitures, everything is old faschioned. Breakfast acceptable, but no meat products at all. Good cafe. Dirtiness needs to be mentioned as well, especially my bathroom was dirty. Staff I thought was very friendly initially, but when they ensured me 2x that they had arranged my shuttle during Shabbat, and they told me at departure from house that they didn't, letting me in big trouble how to catch my flight, it was strange that the business owner was shouting at me instead of me shouting at him ( which I did not do as it looked he would not arrange the horrible priced taxi either, so I was in a vulnerable position). All in one not a feeling I'm in Europe, however prices are 2x Europeans.

Friendly staff. Very close to bus stop to airport.

Die erhaltene Wegbeschreibung zum Gebäudeeingang ist durchaus verbesserungswürdig. Das Frühstückbüffet stand minutenlang leer, das bedienende Personal konnte kein Englisch, so musste ich einfach warten, dass sie leere Servierteller und Flaschen merken und wieder ausfüllen. Zudem erhielt ich irreführende Hinweise, was das Mitnehmen vom Zimmerschlüssel angeht.

Location is great!

We booked the Allenby 2 thinking we were getting a nice place according to the pictures we saw in the listing. We arrived to an apartment that did not look like the pictures. The apartment was visibly dirty and in need of repairs. It was not comfortable and not worth the price paid. I would not recommend Allenby 2.

Nir was a very friendly host who made communication and planning easy. Check in took a while but worked well in the end, probably it was good that we had emailed about it before. The room was large and clean with a super large bed. Only the shower was a little bit broken but worked still well. The kitchen was only little equipped with almost no cutlery which did not bother us too much as we stayed only one night. As we left quite early in the morning unfortunately we missed the breakfast and were offered only to use the coffee machine in the early morning. The location is near to the central station and a few stops away from the old city with the light rail.

Doorgezakte en krakende bed. Oude flatgebouw. Ontbijten 10 minuten verderop.

The appartment was very nice, it had just been renovated. The location was good for me, near people staying in Jerusalem Gate Hotel. The owner was very nice and helpful.

員工熱情會協助解決任何問題，地點離大眾交通工具近，附近外出用餐方便，缺點是住宿地點要再走10分鐘，住宿附早餐需要走回來用餐，住宿位於四樓無電梯。

Sehr hilfsbereiter Manager (Nir). Dadurch familiäre Atmosphäre. Zentrale Lage am Busbahnhof. Allerdings gute halbe Stunde Fußweg zur Jerusalemer Altstadt. An Feiertagen und am Sabbat geht kein ÖPNV, auch keine Geschäfte oder Restaurants offen, außer in den nicht-jüdischen Altstadtvierteln.

It was so beautiful full of plants, flowers and fruit trees. It made us feel at home.

Needed to stay in the area for the conference center. This was clean and breakfast was great! Just what I needed and would come back again.

Pas de ménage quotidien et pas changement systématique des serviettes de toilette Pas de savonnette dans les chambres

We stayed at Allenby2 for 3 nights. From the moment we stepped in the front door we we were welcomed and we felt at home. We had a gorgeous room with our own bathroom and 24 hour access to the kitchen nearby. Breakfast was supplied each morning and it was simple but ample. A large dining area and outdoor areas to sit as well. Very communal and located close to Central Bus station and the tram line which enabled us to go anywhere in Jerusalem and Israel. Staff were so friendly and helpful. We loved this place and would happily return again to stay there.

立地が良いです。公共交通機関でのエルサレム出入りがしやすく、それだけで旅のストレスが減ります。ただ新市街なので、シャバトのときは歩くかタクシー（割高）になります。オーナーさんは細やかな方でいろいろ気遣ってくださるし相談にものってくれます。シャバトのときにも朝ごはんがありそれもよいです。朝ごはんはパン、コーンフレーク、フムス、サラダなど。コーヒー、紅茶、水は随時飲めます。部屋はシェアハウスの一室レベルですが清潔。クーラーもよくききます。トイレ、シャワーは共用ですがお湯もバッチリ出ますし、部屋ごとに使う場所が決まっており、特に不便は感じませんでした。

Tolles Apartment, sehr sauber, gut ausgestattet und sehr gemütlich!

It is perfect! Just in the second room i had no internet! Bit it is like home. You can do what ever you want:) greetings

Lovely place for a getaway Cosy clean and staff super helpful and friendly Breakfast is fine The double bed wasn’t very big We had the garden flat which was nice.. nothing luxurious but certainly a bargain for the price. There isn’t much to do on Saturday so take this into account when booking.

For the money, this was great. We were on the 3rd floor of a satellite room that was two light rail stops from the Breakfast place. One of the people who had a room at the 2 Allanby place has been staying there for about 4 weeks a year for 10 years now.

Nir and staff very helpful , very good value for money and ideal location for Central Bus station and local transport ,

Comfortable room. Friendly staff excellent Good Breakfast

Great location, awesome staff, fantastic breakfast! The staff were so helpful. We will definitely come back!

I loved that I was actually at the little studio apt closer to the Old City in Jerusalem, just a block from the Mahane Yehuda market. It was wonderful to step onto Jaffa Road and just shop and people-watch all the way to the sites. I passed the Post Office to send all my postcards, I found great food at the restaurants and plenty of super good food at the market to take with me to have light meals at the apt. Nir was super knowledgeable and helpful. He helped stay a little longer and get the train to the airport on time. It was really great. It was exactly what I expected and I will DEFINITELY stay there again!!!!

Very charming and cozy accommodations. The courtyard is beautiful and a lovely place to rest in the evening. Nitsan and Nir were wonderful hosts. Breakfast was generous and was a great backdrop for chatting and interacting with the other guests. Highly recommend a stay at Allenby 2.

The studio was very close to the market and had everything that you need to make dinner (in case you dont want to go out). Breakfast is really good! The only minus was the walk in the morning to the main allenby house for breakfast (12min on the street).

We can use the amenities esp kitchen and they offer free drinks anytime.

I loved the friendly, helpful staff and the relaxed atmosphere. Check-in was flexible which was wonderful after a long flight.

Nice pad at Romema, very good location. Quiet with windows closed, although on a busy junction. 5 mins from main bus station, train & tram interchange. Owner, Nir, very helpful. Breakfast available at Allenby only 2 min walk away. Cooking facilities in pad. Great stay. Although no transport on shabbat, old city can be walked to in 30 mins. Would use again.

It was in a great location. A very charming place with a nice staff. Excellent stay

Nice property, good service............ ..... .. ......

The owners were helpful and the location is amazing. Right near the central bus station so easy access to the Jaffo light rail and to buses to take you anywhere in Israel. Clean rooms and fun conversations during breakfast with other travelers.

The owners are great. Very helpful and kind. Breakfast is well done- eggs, hummus, cottage cheese, cereal, toast, and other dishes. Can't ask for more. The area is full of restaurants, discount shops, and it is close to the bus station for convenience (but it is also safe). I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Nice stay. Staffs are friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Simple breakfast get you ready for the day of adventure. Discount for booking some of the local tours.

Another bonus is the location. Right next to the central bus station and train station. Very easy to get to. Staff are helpful and knowledgeable.

What a lovely old home. The hospitality is the best. Really great for the price. 5 minutes from bus station.

Very kind and warm reception somewhat spoiled by ants in the room.

Not luxurious, but comfortable, and has character. Friendly, helpful staff, but they is no full-time front desk, making service necessarily limited. The neighborhood is safe but kind of out of the way from most things. Nice little garden out front for sitting.

Allenby 2 is a convenient and friendly place to stay in Jerusalem. It is very close to the Central Bus Station, Jaffa Street, and the light rail for travel to the Old City. The rooms are simple but the location and friendliness of the place make it a nice choice for a trip to Jerusalem.

Convenient location with amazing service and attentiveness provided by the staff. Delicious breakfast each morning in a charming facility. Rooms are small but property has a beautiful patio and garden. Wonderful staff were extremely helpful and obliging. Great stay!

Great location in Jerusalem. Steps to Central bus station and Jaffa St. Basic room but clean and comfortable.

Nice, clean property. Affordable by Jerusalem standards. Friendly, hostel-like set-up and atmosphere. Convenient location a couple blocks from Jerusalem Central Bus Station if you're catching a bus to Ben Gurion Airport or anywhere in Israel. If you arrive after 5-6 PM, you'll find a note with instructions and keys... maybe this way for everyone? I would definitely stay here again.

Great location near to the Mahane Yehuda market and the bars in the streets nearby, handy for the light rail as well.

We only stayed there for one night due to its closeness to the bus station.

Make sure you ask where are you going to be placed. There are two locations. One is more central but completely improvised (a regular appartment with locks placed on room doors), the other is the old building that appears on photos, somewhat more distant, but you have to go there for breakfast (seriously, you need to go to a remote location in another part of the city).

No staff around at check in, but keys and instructions were left for us. However, the directions included in our booking confirmation for free parking were out of date. This turned out to be a bit of a hassle and a waste of time. Parking is available near the main residence at 50 shekels/day, but you can't really come and go as you please. Street parking is possible from 7pm until 8am. Rooms are small. Basic breakfast is available for one and a half hours from 8-9:30. No daily housekeeping. Location is ok - 12 min walk to Mahane Yehuda market, 18 min by tram to the old city. Very basic no frills place. We were also overcharged slightly when we paid for our booking in local currency. Best part of the stay was the communal atmosphere and meeting other travelers.

Allenby2 was in a great location Host were very friendly and really made you feel welcome and very eager to please. will recommend this location for anyone looking for a good B&B in Jerusalem

Nice hotel with basic amenities, small room, good breakfast

Nice place to stay at. Nearby Jaffa street.

the location was great..right on the light rail line..the breakfast in the morning was also very nice and very good..the staff were amazing..very helpful and nice and pleasant.i would stay here again and totally recommend the hotel.

close to shopping, restaurants. Staff helpful, courteous. Court yard could be noisy if patrons decide to party late and sounds echo up throughout the building. This was just a minor issue, but could be important to some people.

Fantastic experience at Allenby 2. If you're looking for luxury, this might not be the best option for you, however Allenby 2 is a place to feel like home. You have all your amenities and welcoming and helpful staff which really made a big difference for us. The pricing is great, the breakfast is beautiful, and the position of the hotel is great to walk into the old city, an easy bus ride from Tel Aviv airport, and close to the light rail. We will definitely be returning to Allenby 2 on our next trip to Jerusalem.

Ok place to stay. Kitchen available for use is a great plus. Breakfast same very morning is a bit dull.

Nice room. Much better than a Hostel. Near central bus station and shopping center.

The place is nice, excellent breakfast and friendly staff.

Very comfortable and cozy B&B. Breakfasts are amazing - fresh salads and much more, all preoared on site. The shared bathroom is a bit too small but accepatble. Good A/C and working TV in the room. Staff super nice and helpful. Parking in the area is an issue as are the cats that sneak in every time the doir is left open. I highly recommend this place.

Breakfast is really good. Bog common area. The room and bathroom are small, but very clean. It's close to bus and train, 30 min taxi ride to the old city.

Nitzan, one of the staffs, was awesome and tried to make us as comfortable as possible. The breakfast was beautiful with some local dishes. Small negative point was its cleanness: the floor was a bit dusty and the shower curtain smelled a bit when it got warm steam. Other than that, the room and the common area were clean.

The tiniest room known to man, electrics had a lot to be desired with amateur double plug connections everywhere. Bedding clean but general décor not good at all. Hard to find as its essentially house converted to bedsits. There was a breakfast included but it doesn't compensate for its failings. I couldn't get the WiFi to work and I am an IT person

The staff is great! But the rooms are very small, the breakfast was poor and for 8 days you had the same food day, after day, inside the house is nice but outside the building is a very poor, dirty run down neighhberhood .

Good reviews are written by family and friends of the owner, extremely small room with filthy bathroom

The bed was very comfortable. The room accommodated three of us, as requested. We arrived late and the host was VERY helpful in getting us situated. Breakfast was over the top delightful!

Thanks to the wonderful host, Nitsan, Allenby 2 was the very best accommodation of my entire trip. She was helpful, hospitable and pleasant. She really went the extra mile to give me travel guidance, to answer all my questions, and to respond to my many travel needs. You will find that she is like a daughter, or a sister or a mother. It genuinely felt like I was leaving family when I checked-out. The breakfast was splendid. The large common area afforded the perfect opportunities to mingle and compare notes with fellow travelers.

I loved this place. Just behind the central bus station , nice old Arab style house and very friendly staff, excellent breakfast and great diverse library , reflecting the diverse visitors of this house. Great place to stay while exploring Jerusalem and the area. Highly recommended! Thank you Nir for the great gift!

The owner is hospital and more than willing to accommodate to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Though the apartment studios we booked are new and with kitchenette, as we have problem in bringing our heavy luggage up, the owner decided to put us in a small unit in the old building for one night, and moved us to a bigger unit in the same building day after. Even though the building is 80 year old, there is no lack of facilities to make the room to be very comfortable to stay in. The breakfast is simple yet the veg. salad and fruit salad are delicious. The capsule coffee machine is provided and it is an attraction. The table setting induced interaction among the residents. With the small garden surrounding the building, it makes people feel at home.

Property is in a very convenient location by Central Bus Station and close to Shuk and Ben Yehuda Street.

Great Hotel, friendly service.

Room never been claimed. .my bed sheet and pillow never been changed on all my 9 days I stayed

While I coordinated before hand what time I would be arriving no one was there and the cellphone numbers provided were disconnected. It took knocking on doors of neighbors to finally get access albeit a day late. The bed was on a slant and broken and as such made it difficult and painful to sleep. While we were told there would be breakfast - that too was absent. Staying here might be cheap but stay somewhere else or you will suffer.

I had a pleasant stay. Well organized check in. Pleasant breakfast chat with other guests and host. A sightseeing tour can be organized from the hotel.

Have no words to describe the warm, and cordial atmosphere of the hotel. The owners do their best to make it feel like a cozy home. Breakfast is simple but COMPLETE, really in Yerushalmi spirit and just what you need to start a day. Do not forget to put some zaatar and olive oil on your hummus and tkhina to be really embraced by the city! You can also prepare anything from tea/coffee to meal in the kitchen assuming you store you food in the guests fridge properly and clean/wash after yourself. The first sight you have on the morning when you are out is a small lovely garden, pink warm Yerusalem stone of the walls and a light air promising you a joyful day. We had a late flight at the day of checkout but were arranged to rent the same room for reduced price with no need to worry. If you are OK with some normal peculiarities of Jerusalem winter (hot water in shower takes some time to come when you run it and will not last forever hot, if the air-mounted AC needs some repair, you need to use the floor electric heater), you will be really happy and retain the warmest memories.

I had a good stay for a reasonable price. The owner is incredibly kind and helpful, and went out of his way to make sure I had a good experience there. He gave great recommendations and advice, and even booked a fantastic tour for a group of us. He took care of all of the logistics in booking the tour. I recommend staying here if you want a convenient place for a very reasonable price.

Breakfast was great. The room was super. Very quiet hotel.

People were very accommodating. Room was very spacious. Shower was small. The room had everything one needed. I cannot review the breakfast, since I didn't get up in time. But I appreciated being served coffee anyways! Excellent location for me: close to International Congress Centre (where I was attending a professional conference), close to public transportation and generally central location.

I stayed 4 nights and was very comfortable. Good breakfasts, and it was interesting meeting other guests around the breakfast table and hearing people's differing reasons to be in Jerusalem, and their varying experiences. Very different from impersonal hotels. The staff were very welcoming and extremely helpful with logistical issues like finding plug-adapters and booking the airport shuttle bus.

Very friendly and helpful staff!

Allenby 2 is the address of this bed & breakfast. You can be provided space in the refrigerator for personal food stuffs, but they provide a decent breakfast as part of the room fee. It seems that the price per night and the size of the room were normal for Israel. The staff are friendly, but you room is not serviced. You have to make your own bed & ask when you need clean towels and/or linens.

Bad service due to the didn't mention that the suits were located 10 blocks away from the hotel reported official address sending us to a regular family building. The hotel is liying to the customers by obtaining customers fraudulently and not telling us that we must walk 10-15 minutes to get the "free breakfast" This hotel must be removed from hotel.com

The hotel staff is very friendly and helpfull. They went out of their way to arrange transportation for me to the airport during a double Shabbat.!

unique place, unique people, unique guests staff very helpful, rooms have character, but are from another era...good spot and would stay again.

Great location across the street from the central bus station.

No hot water, therefore, couldn,t take a shower. The water was very cold because is winter. The hotel staff said they were going to fix it but they didn,t.

There was very friendly vibe at the hotel. It is right on the tramway line and you can take it downtown very easily (or in the other direction to Yad Vashem). It is about 30 minutes by foot to downtown. It is also located right behind the main bus station, so it is a very convenient place to stay if you are also travelling to a place like Tel Aviv. I will definitely stay there again if I come back to Jerusalem.

I had to stay in Jerusalem a couple of days and by accident I found this hotel very close to central bus station and convenient to all Visiting sites in Jerusalem. It is was a family type facility with very friendly people.I found it very nice down to earth ; I would visit and stay again.

J and I loved the stay of 4 days, especially B&B get chance to know different tenants from all over the world. And breakfast are healthy and Israel style, we both love the freshly brewed cappuccino.

We got to the nace hotel you see in the photos to discover that actually there is an othe building 15 min. walk from there where our room was located. No big deal, a very nice wooman helped us to get there. It was very nice experience.
