Photos and Description of the Jerusalem area vacation apartment rental
3 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, sleeps 6

If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind Jerusalem experience, you've come to the right place!

The Rova Arches suite is situated right in the heart of the Jewish Quarter. Overlooking the regal Hurva synagogue, and just minutes from the Western Wall, the location really can't be beat. When you're looking for a change of pace, you'll find you're only three minutes from the colorful Arab shuk and a short stroll to the Mamilla shopping district. Just past Mamilla, you can hop on a tram that will take you the center of town, the famous Jerusalem shuk, and the central bus station.

As soon as you enter the suite, you will be taken away by its magnificent arches. Built six hundred years ago in the Mamluki period, the living and dining areas are true architectural gems. The walls are meters thick, and the domed ceilings rise to a phenomenal height — they just don't make 'em like that anymore!

Newly renovated to the highest standard, the Rova Arches suite is a sight to behold. From underfloor heating to countless designer flourishes, no expense was spared. Relax in the spacious Jacuzzi, or take a break on the terrace and enjoy the crisp Jerusalem air.

Our kosher guests will find stainless steel dishwashers for meat and milk, as well as separate ovens. We also provide full sets of dishes, pots, and pans.

Amenities

• Three air-conditioned bedrooms, newly renovated

• 1.5 bathrooms, newly renovated

• Brand new kosher kitchen with dual sinks, dishwashers, and ovens

• Ancient domed living and dining rooms

• Underfloor heating

• Oversized queen bed with separable frame and mattresses

Why Idan chose Jerusalem area

It was love at first sight! As soon as we saw the spectacular ancient domes, we knew this was an apartment like no other.

What makes this apartment unique

Eco living:

When you stay at our vacation suite, there's no need to worry about your carbon footprint. The green construction began five hundred years ago — the one-to-two-meter-thick walls maintain temperature better than any modern technology! We did our best to follow that example when we renovated the bedrooms, bathrooms, and kitchen.

Here is a list of the suite's Eco credentials:

•Low-energy air conditioning. (DC Inverter technology.)

•LED lighting.

•Underfloor heating. Rather than blast heat from a small vent near the ceiling, underfloor heating systems allow the heat to rise from the bottom up, without ever reaching a high temperature.

•Double-glazed insulated windows.

•Natural-gas water heating.

•Energy-efficient appliances.

Nothing Could be Better

We just returned from a week long stay. It was unbelievably special. To say that the location is good is an understatement. We were in the middle of the Jewish Quarter during Pseach. Priceless.
Idan was very accommodating. The apartment is beautiful and very comfortable. Best stay in Jerusalem. Do not hesitate to rent this apartment. It's perfect.

Wonderful stay on Old City

We had a wonderful stay in this magnificent renovated apartment. It is right in the middle of the Jewish quarter and is perfect for roaming the Old City. The apartment was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen and bath are very modern and stylish. The beds were comfortable, and there was plenty of space. Idan was helpful and communication was good. Parking in the Old City is challenging, but Idan did arrange for a spot for us. I would not recommend this for people with difficulty walking, but otherwise it is a wonderful place to stay in Jerusalem.

A Dream Come True

If you ever wanted to stay in the old city and be in a luxury apt, this is the one. The apt is gorgeous and the attention to detail to make it feel like you're in a 5 star hotel is what really sets this choice apart.

I cannot say enough about the apt and we are counting the days until we can return.

Great Apartment

When we got to the apartment the apartment manager was so kind and helpful. The apartment was stocked with all our basic necessities from shampoos to fresh bagels. If you are looking at staying in Jerusalem in true luxury stay at this Magnificent home in the Old City. The apartment got so many compliments from our friends and family. Ronit and her team were so kind and helpful to us. If we needed anything they were a phone call or text away. Those who are looking for a kosher apartment this is the apartment to use. It has separate dishes and separate dish washers. All the beds were comfortable and everyone slept soundly. As far the location, you can't beat it. We were right in the Jewish quarter of the Old City so from the balconies we saw the Rova square. This is by far THE best experience we have had in accommodations while traveling.

When my friend sent me the link "magnificent home in the Old City" I was a bit skeptic since I have stayed in various flats in the Old City before and had been dissappointed. This flat is a real gem! Beautiful design, modern combined with antique, enhancing the feeling of being in such a special place and still with all the creature comforts. The layout of the flat is very convenient and my children felt very at home right away. The linen was gorgious and the beds very comfortable, there were spare blankets and pillows though we didn't need. We arrived on a freezing cold day but we forgot all about it as soon as the underfloor heating started to work. A real treat! We came for Shabbat and were invited for all meals so we didn't use the flat's facilities but it's all there: hot water urn, Shabbat switch in refrigerator, plata, dishwashers, washing machine... The apartment was impecably clean, newly refurbrished and I felt I had been there before since the photos accurately reflect the place. I was wondering if that living room would be as big as it looks and indeed it is. As for the location, it's great! You can see the Churva from one of the bedrooms as it's right next to it and it's just off the Central square with all the amenities you might need. The owner was very helpful, taking care of every detail. Pity we came for such a short time, we would love to come again!
