Local tip
The light rail stop beside the building makes it a practical starting point for reaching the Old City and other parts of the city.

The Post Hostel is an urban, budget-oriented accommodation set on the upper floor of a historic post-office building. Its position above a light rail station gives the property a distinctly city-based setting, while the interior combines contemporary design with spaces intended for meeting, relaxing and taking part in cultural activities. The hostel is designed for travelers seeking a flexible stay with a choice between private accommodation and a shared hostel experience.

Private rooms are available for solo travelers, couples and small groups, with some gallery-style and family rooms offering additional sleeping space. These rooms include an en-suite bathroom, a work desk, storage, cable television and wireless internet. Gallery and family rooms also include a mini fridge and a sofa that converts into a double bed. Shared rooms are arranged in larger dormitories, including female-only accommodation, with en-suite facilities, wireless internet, personal USB connections and individual storage beside each bed.

The shared areas give the property much of its social character. A spacious lounge provides room for reading, conversation and scheduled events, with its atmosphere changing throughout the day. A rooftop terrace adds an outdoor place to sit with a drink and listen to music, while the chill-out room offers a quieter setting for billiards or a film. These facilities allow guests to choose between social time and a more private pause without leaving the property.

The hostel also functions as a cultural meeting point, hosting events and activities connected with local life. Its accommodation suits independent travelers, couples, families and groups who value a central base alongside communal areas. The property’s style is informal and modern, with the building’s historic setting providing contrast to the updated interiors.

For travelers exploring Jerusalem, the location places the hostel close to the Old City walls, the light rail and the municipal district. The Old City, Mamilla, Mahane Yehuda Market and central entertainment areas are all within walking distance according to the property’s location information. The surrounding area brings together historic sites, restaurants, cafés, bars, museums and galleries, making the hostel practical for short visits as well as longer stays. Breakfast and market-focused tasting experiences are also connected with some accommodation packages, adding a local food element without changing the hostel’s primary role as urban lodging.
