    The flagship of Israeli Hotels,
    Marveling at the fabled skyline of the Old City.
    A remarkable venue - a Jerusalem landmark and Israel's most famous hotel.
    The perennial host to world leaders and celebrities.

    The King David Hotel bombing (July 22, 1946) was a bombing attack against the British government of Palestine by members of Irgun ?a militant Zionist group. The Irgun exploded a bomb at the King David Hotel in Jerusalem, which had been the base for the British Secretariat, the military command and a branch of the Criminal Investigation Division (police). 91 people were killed, most of them civilians: 28 British, 41 Arab, 17 Jewish, and 5 other. Around 45 people were injured.

    The attack was initially ordered by David Ben Gurion, who was in the United States, but he later changed his mind and ordered the bombing to be cancelled. But Menachem Begin, the head of Irgun, went ahead anyway. Both Ben Gurion and Begin would later become Israeli Prime Ministers.

    The attack on the hotel was the largest attack against the British in the history of the Mandate.

    The kind David hotel in Jerusalem, although may not be impressing from its outside is a very posh hotel and known as one of the best in Israel if not the best.
    When Presidents, prime ministers kings and other people in such level arrives thats where they stay.
    So i guess that most VT'ers will find this tip not so helpful but then again who knows.... mybe you've just got a spoiling vacation from your granny and you're searching for a GREAT hotel in VT... :-)

    This is the famous King David hotel that was planned and built under the British rule, between 1929 and 1931. I have never stayed there and I doubt if I'll ever will.
    Anyway, this is the place were all the rich and famous stay while in Israel.

    If you cannot afford to stay there, don't forget that you can always go to drink coffee/tea at the lobby. I often do that in famous hotels' lobbies while travelling abroad.

    Famous guests:
    Kings, tycoons, leaders, and movie stars: King Hussein, Queen Beatrice, Bill Clinton, Anwar Sadat, Husni Mubarak, Mikhail Gorbachev, Eleanor Roosevelt, Helmut Kohl, Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, Richard Gere, Neil Young, Ralph Laurent, Madonna..and many many others.

    Great views to the Old City.
