The outside is actually quite modest, I'm not sure I would have identified it as a hotel had my husband not led me right to the door:
Then when you first walk in, you're greeted by these beautiful floors:
Walk a little further in, and you find yourself in the main lobby, designed to look like an outdoor courtyard:
It looks like a lot of the hotel rooms overlook this space:
And here's this cool chandelier thing, as a grande finale:
Wow that's nice! I'm sure I can't afford to stay there, but if you're ever in Jerusalem and looking for a lovely lobby to hang out in for a little while, do check out the new Waldorf-Astoria :)

Really a famous hotel! Most I like the staircase with the iron artworks...
From outside it is very different to our architekture here in Germany.
Have a nice new week
Toby, truly a grand hotel. Thanks for sharing.
Cool, thanks for the tour inside!
I remember in 2006 walking past the original old building (once a grand Arab hotel) early every morning on my way to my dig at the Kotel and it was creepy-- abandoned and decaying. They did a great job with it.
Looks wonderful.
Well that's a lovely blog you have. Don't know whether I'll stay in that hotel but it was good to have a peek at it.
