Harmony Hotel is a small boutique property on Yoel Moshe Salomon Street in the heart of downtown Jerusalem, part of the Atlas Boutique hotel group. It has 50 rooms, a restaurant, a library and a games room with billiards, and it is a minute’s walk from Ben Yehuda Street and two minutes from Zion Square. Mamilla Mall is about eight minutes away, Jaffa Gate roughly twelve, and Mahane Yehuda Market about thirteen. Rooms come with a safe, a refrigerator, a kettle and an espresso maker, and the hotel allows dogs and cats. It sits in the mid-range and gives an excellent central location without the price of a large luxury hotel.
Location and getting around
The downtown triangle around Zion Square is lively with cafés and restaurants, and the Old City, the market and the light rail are all walkable. Because this is a busy pedestrian area, evenings can be noisy on weekends, so ask for a room away from the street. A taxi or the light rail takes you to Yad Vashem and the Israel Museum. If you drive, free covered parking on site is a rare bonus, though spaces are limited.
Rooms and facilities
The rooms come with air conditioning, free Wi-Fi, a safe, a refrigerator and espresso machines, which is good equipment for the price. Breakfast is a buffet for a fee, and a 24-hour airport shuttle can be arranged on request for an extra charge. The front desk is staffed around the clock and there is luggage storage. The library and billiards room give the hotel a homely feel for those who want to relax in the evening.
Who it suits
First-time visitors who want to walk to most things, pet owners, couples and small groups looking for good value in the center. It is not the place for a pool or spa, so look elsewhere in this guide if those matter. Check the Sabbath arrangements, as the area is quieter on Friday night and Saturday and some restaurants close.
