Scots House Hotel
Jerusalem
At a glance
Scots House Hotel is a church guesthouse on David Remez Street in Jerusalem, positioned above the Hinnom Valley with views towards Jaffa Gate, the Old City and the modern city. The location places both the historic centre and the newer parts of the city within walking distance, making the hotel suitable as a base for sightseeing, pilgrimage and business travel.
The building combines Western and Oriental architectural influences. Its clean, simple lines have a castle-like character associated with the Scottish Highlands, while the main entrance incorporates Armenian ceramics. The setting gives the property a strong connection to the surrounding church and to the Scottish memorial history represented by St Andrew’s Church.
Accommodation consists of double rooms with air conditioning and private bathrooms. Rooms look either towards the Old City or onto a secluded garden, giving guests a choice between an urban outlook and a greener setting. A buffet-style breakfast is included with bookings, providing a practical start to the day without requiring a separate breakfast arrangement.
Hotel facilities include wireless internet access, free parking, a garden, a library and open access to the church. These shared spaces give the property a quieter, more characterful atmosphere than a standard city hotel, while its central position keeps major Jerusalem sights close by. The garden and church also add useful spaces for guests who want time away from the city streets.
Scots House Hotel also accommodates private occasions. Birthday celebrations, baptisms, bar and bat mitzvahs, engagement parties and weddings can make use of the lounge or terrace, with the surrounding views forming part of the setting. Larger occasions can be arranged across the full building. The venue therefore suits travellers seeking a distinct historic setting as well as groups planning a private gathering.
With its straightforward room facilities, included buffet breakfast, parking and proximity to the Old City, Scots House Hotel works for visitors who value location and architectural character over resort-style amenities. Direct contact with the reservations team is available for room bookings, event enquiries and questions about individual requirements.
