10 Reviews of Property 361904 in Jerusalem area, Israel

The Cottage is a well-appointed cosy apartment with charming decorator touches in the heart of the German Colony. It has a fully equipped small kosher kitchen [hotplate, microwave, fridge, toaster, all utensils] and modern bathroom. There is even a small private enclosed outside sitting area which would be amazing in warm weather. It is only 2 short blocks from the trendy shops,restaurants and bus service of Emek Refaim but maintains the quiet atmosphere of a residential family area. Frequent bus service is available to the City Centre.
The owner is nearby and very pleasant and helpful.
I loved it and certainly would return.

The German Colony Cottage was a very charming oasis to come home to at the end of the day. The cottage was exactly as appears in the photos. Judy made us feel right at home and was a great hostess. The location was very convenient to transportation and the walking distance was also very good. We were able to walk a short distance to Emek Refaim to partake of restaurants, grocery stores, laundry service, and many other stores. We would definitely recommend this property to friends and relatives.

This lovely, beautifully designed and equiped cottage proved to be the ideal place to stay for our week in Jerusalem. A peaceful setting yet close to many shops and restaurants. The Old City was just a 25 minute walk away and sitting on the secluded patio in the evenings was a wonderful way to relax, rest and review our busy days of sightseeing. The kind owners were so helpful with advice ranging from where to eat out to which taxi is best for the return airport journey! We felt so at home during our stay - as if we were residents not just tourists. We will be booking this cottage again when we next visit Jerusalem and can certainly recommend the cottage to all visitors as a wonderful place to stay.

My wife and I visited Israel for 12 days and stayed at this cottage home in the German Colony neighborhood in Jerusalem. Because our arrival was to coincide with the onset of Sukkot, Judy and Aaron graciously offered to do some food shopping for us as the stores would be closing. All of the emails were clear and helpful. The cottage itself is very comfortable with a beautiful and leafy little courtyard and a lovely rear patio for relaxing anytime of the day or evening. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals. Judy and Aaron are close by for any questions or help. The German Colony has a nice assortment of cafes and shops on Emek Refaim St. and the walk to the Old City and the center of town is a non-strenuous jaunt of about 20 minutes. We certainly recommend this cottage for anyone visiting the Jerusalem area.

We were completely delighted with our week at the German Colony Cottage in Jerusalem. I knew from the website photos that it would be charming, and it exceeded all of our expectations! Judy greeted us warmly in person, showed us around and answered all our questions. She even had fresh fruit, nuts and some delicious cookies waiting for us. Staying here made for our favorite place in Israel where we could have breakfast in the charming, landscaped patio, cook our own meals in the extremely well equipped kitchen (I've rented many houses and apartment wherever we travel, but this kitchen was by far the best equipped) and find easy shopping at a well supplied little grocery ( it also had the newspaper available quite early every a.m.) just 2 minutes away and a large supermarket 5 minutes walk away. The furnishings are very attractive and colorful with a comfortable well lit living room where we could relax and read at night. Although the German Colony Cottage is just a few minutes walk to a bustling, charming neighborhood with stores and cafes, the cottage is on a quiet street. The location was ideal for us to pick up a short taxi ride into the Old City to explore or to the incredible Israel Museum. Our days were long and fascinating visiting the Old City three times and the fabulous Israel Museum twice (we do recommend you leave yourself two separate days if possible for the Israel Museum--it's extensive with gorgeous displays) and having a home base rather than a hotel makes it so easy to go back to places to spend more time, then "home" to relax. At the end of the day we truly felt we were coming home. The beautiful, quiet landscaped patio for breakfast started each morning off in a delightful way. The patio garden was always the first place I would go each evening when we returned in the evening after a long day, fascinated by what we had seen but very tired. I would throw open the patio door, turn on the outdoor light, sit in the cool evening air; it always relaxed and re-energized me. We felt right at home, and it made for an unforgettable week in Jerusalem. Our every need as guests had been anticipated by its very thoughtful owners. I could not recommend it more highly!

A great location, and excellent value....clean, quiet, a most pleasant place to stay in Jerusalem. We found it ideal for 2 people. The bonus is the lovely patio. It has all ammenities one would want. We were there 2 weeks. The owners were exceedingly helpful, even leaving a map of nearby laundry, postoffice, ect. It's near very good restaurants, shops, a playground, grocery stores and and we walked to the old city one day, to the makane yehuda market another day, and to Ben Yehuda a couple of nights!

I would absolutely stay here again and have recommended it to friends. Apartment was spotless and well appointed. It is in a lovely, quiet, neighborhood near bus stops, post office, shopping, groceries, and resturants. There are three lovely parks near by of various sizes.
Judy and Aaron, the owners were welcoming and extremely helpful with any questions that we had. Our stove ran out of gas and within hours, they had replaced the tank.
Well appointed kitchen. Lovely garden with a spot out back for handwashing a few clothes. It's a bit of a walk to the Old City but not difficult on the way there. We would recommend catching a cab on the way home.
We had a wonderful visit and would be excited to return to stay someday. Enjoy!!!
