The hotel in general was very nice. The service staff were all very friendly. The only problem was that my room door would always beep when I entered or when I left. I don't know exactly what that means but nobody elses doors did that. The hotel was pretty expensive from what I remember but I can't exactly recall the price. The food in the hotel was pretty good too. On Wednesday they had a barbecue night where there was all kinds of meats cooked.
The pool was pretty nice, though filled with, usually old fat guys.

I had an incredible room facing the old city wall. The room was spacious, fresh fruit and flowers. Their Israeli breakfast is out of this world! The staff is very friendly and accommodating!
By far the nicest hotel in Jerusalem. Formerly the Hilton Jerusalem. The hotel is in walking distance of many Jerusalem landmarks and the old city of Jerusalem. Everything in the hotel lives up to Hilton standards still today and the hotel is very well kept. The bathrooms in the rooms are beautiful, and the rooms feel bigger than they actually are.
The King David Hotel is also a big and well known hotel that Americans like to frequent but anyone who knows Jerusalem knows that the David Citadel Hotel is much nicer.
During the winter months the outdoor pool is heated. The lobby lounge overlooks the old city walls which is really breathtaking at night. There is a Cybex Spa & Fitness room in the hotel, and the hotel has a beautiful underground parking lot.
Directions: Main road to Jerusalem. At entrance past the Convention Centre, take 3rd turn L and continue uphill. Continue until No-Entry sign, turn R and then L. Cross the junc. take first R, then L into King David Street. The hotel will be on the right.
