Included in the rent is the weekly cleaning service and the changing of linen and towels.
Nestled between the old and new parts of the capital, the German Colony is the most charming area in Jerusalem.

My Jerusalem Holidays and Jade Apartment of Colony Suites

This apartment was suggested to me friends in The Netherlands. All contacts with the management of Colony Suites have been excellent. Questions put forward during preparations efficiently and adequately answered within a very short timespan everytime I was emailing. During my stay in the Jade Apartment the help offered on various issues was great as well. The apartment is nice, clean, well maintained, good equipment, fine shower etc., beds are good, fine athmosphere. Jade Apartment is therefore a welcome home, after all walks and trips in and outside the city of Jerusalem. The Old City is at walkable distance, bus lines run in the adjacent streets, the area of German Colony is nice and safe, good shops and restaurants. I very much recommend all people to make use of Colony Suites services.Recommended for: Tourists without a car, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, romantic getaway, adventure seekers.

Colony Suites provided exactly what we wanted and expected for our 2-3 week stay in Jerusalem. Its location, in Jerusalem's German Colony, is marvelous, with the Old City only a half-hour walk away. We started many evenings with a 10 minute stroll to the King David Hotel for drinks in its storied bar. We felt comfortable walking around regardless of the time of day. There are good places to eat for any meal, the cafes have wonderful coffee and pastries, and there's a beautiful pedestrian walkway just a moment from your apartment door. Or it's easy to hop on a bus for a short ride to Ben Yehuda for major shopping opportunities. Our apartment was extremely clean and contained all the essentials. The management is the best: helpful, responsive, and very pleasant.Recommended for: Tourists without a car, families with teenagers, sightseeing.

We stayed in Colony Suite's Levant apartment for the second time. It's a lovely apartment that is spacious and comfortable for our family of four. It is well-equipped with attention to details such as the provision of umbrellas, a safe and a drying rack. (My only suggestion is to provide a radio and/or ihome device for docking an iPod.) The location is ideal - close to the old city, readily accessibly by bus lines and in the heart of the thriving German colony neighborhood. We could go out each morning to get fresh bagels for breakfast and there are a wide variety of restaurants in close proximity as well. There are two grocery stores within a five-minute walk from the apartment. Overall, we felt like we were coming home (after having stayed here 3 years ago) and we were pleasantly surprised to find a few upgrades to the apartment since our last visit. We have recommended this apartment to friends and will definitely stay here anytime we are visiting Jerusalem.Recommended for: Tourists without a car, age 55+, families with teenagers, girls getaway, sightseeing, families with young children.

We couldn't of picked a better place to stay during our trip to Jerusalem. The apartment had a home feel to it. The location was perfect. It's walkable to the Old City. The neighborhood felt very safe with a bank, pharmacy, grocery store and restaurants right out the door. Even though our apartment was close to everything, it was very quiet and private. Also Linda was extremely pleasant and attentive to our needs. I look forward to staying here again.Recommended for: Tourists without a car, age 55+, families with teenagers, girls getaway, sightseeing, families with young children, adventure seekers.

My family and I were pleased with this stylish, well located apartment. The host was helpful and professional. The apartment lived up to its online description. I did find that it would have been enhanced by a little more maintenance. A screen was old and ripped on one window; there was some dust under the furniture. But these are minor complaints. It was well worth the price. The neighborhood can't be beat and the apartment had charm.Recommended for: Tourists without a car, age 55+, families with young children.

This is the second time I have rented an apartment from Colony Suites. Each time the service, responsiveness, cleanliness and accomodations were great. I will continue to use them whenever I can. The apartment was walking distance from everything that one would need, supermarket, coffee, restaurants etc.Recommended for: Tourists without a car.

Location
Owner info
Year Purchased: 2004
About the owner: We came to Jerusalem as students a decade ago here we are two children later... David is an native Israeli from Haifa, Leeora from Australia. A team and now a family, we are still charmed by this ancient city.
Why the Owner Chose Jerusalem:
Of all the neighborhoods in Jerusalem, we feel most comfortable in the German Colony. While hosting a range of restaurants with international cuisine, the German Colony has a distinct architectural style and local culture.
The Unique Benefits at this Apartment:
Firstly unlike most hilly areas in Jerusalem, the German Colony is flat! Our property is off Emek Refayim, the cafe capital of Jerusalem, we love starting our day with a hot cup of coffee and a fresh croissant.
