How to Get There

+972-74-7010772
BY FOOT From the Central Bus Station turn left and walk along Jaffa Street towards the city center. You'll pass the Machane Yehuda Market on your right side. After around 10 minutes you'll reach a junction with traffic lights and a square opposite. Look up and you'll see our building! Cross the street, and cut across the square to the left. The entrance to the Abraham Hostel Jerusalem is on the left side of the building, on HaNeviim Street. The walk takes 15 minutes or so in total. BY CAR Coming into Jerusalem via Road 1 from the west, continue along Ben Zvi Boulevard, turning left at Bezalel Street. At the top of Bezalel, turn left, and then left again at the roundabout onto Agripas. At the first traffic light turn right, cross over the train tracks, and take the road right to HaNeviim Street, where you'll see the entrance on the right. You can park in the parking lot next to the hostel: take the small road down to the left of the entrance. The price is approximately 70 NIS per day. BY TRAM Once you are at the Central Bus station in Jerusalem, the quickest option is to take the tram/light rail heading towards the city center. Exit the tram at “HaDavidka Square” (3rd stop). The hostel is located on the other side of Jaffa Street. Just cross the tracks and walk around to the other end of the building (HaNeviim St) where you will find the hostel entrance. FROM THE AIRPORT From Ben Gurion International Airport the best way to get to Abraham Jerusalem is by train that departs every 30 minutes during the day, and every hour during the night (except for Friday) from the airport to Yitzhak Navon station in Jerusalem (right across from the Jerusalem Central bus station). From there follow instructions “By Tram”. The train operates Sunday-Thursday between 6:30 - 23:30. It does not operate on Fridays. On Saturdays, the train operates during evening hours only.

    It is THE reference for youth hostels in Israel. An industrial hostel (and still, a little less than the one in Tel Aviv), but with a great atmosphere and a very professional and helpful team. So okay, there are a few flaws (e.g. sound insulation, incentive to put 5 stars on Google to get a shot of alcohol), but there are really more positives than negatives: excellent breakfasts, great activities every day. evenings, excursions very well organized and the feeling of being well received.

    Really enjoyed our stay here. The staff were so friendly and helpful. We loved the breakfast and the communal areas. The vibe here is just so welcoming and easy. The only downside was our room location which was right by the stairs to the rooftop and above the communal lounge which meant it was rather noisy on days with live music.

    Super positive experience with 2 friends, in a room with private bathroom. The environment is welcoming and very suitable for those traveling alone, as there are many common areas and activities that promote knowledge. Spacious and clean rooms. Good and plentiful breakfast, both in terms of salty and sweet. The area is convenient for walking to most places of interest and provided with good restaurants of all types, as well as a famous market. We also took part in 3 tours organized by them, which we really enjoyed (old city, west bank and Masada at sunrise). In short .... absolutely recommended!

  • The place is easily accessible, close to the old city. A kitchen that makes coffee and tea available 24 hours a day, you just have to prepare it. Breakfast is a feast. Great structure, employees who help you with whatever you need. I highly recommend it!

    The Serb from your staff has been nice! It is appreciated that some of your staff speak Spanish. The breakfast is amazing! The most delicious to start your day in Jerusalem. The amenities of your hostel are excellent, the experience that I take from here has been unique.

  • Without a doubt it is the best accommodation in Jerusalem. There are shared but also private rooms, which are very good and do not lack anything. The Hostel concept is great to have fun, be entertained and meet people from all over the world. In the bar there are all kinds of games (billiards, table football etc), sofas and chairs to relax and also a bar with a multitude of local beers and wines. Parties and live music are held in the evenings, which helps to maintain a good atmosphere in the hostel with other travelers. Upstairs on the roof is another bar with 360 views of the city, perfect for relaxing in the starlight or sun. Because the hostel is very big, there are a lot of people and it is very easy to start a conversation and meet other people traveling alone or in a group. Breakfast is included in the accommodation and also, it is really good, with traditional dishes, a large selection of food, fruits, sweets, coffee, juice .. all buffet style and unlimited. The hostel also offers discounted excursions for those who stay in the hostel, that is, not only will you find the best price in all of Jerusalem, but it is also at the door of the hostel, from door to door, simply great. I did the excursion to the West Bank (Palestine, Jericho, Bethlehem etc) and it was really good, professional, agile and above all comfortable. The hostel is a 15-minute walk through the most commercial street in Jerusalem to Jaffa Gate, it is easy, comfortable and fast, it is also located in an area full of restaurants, bars, shops and in general, LIFE. It is also 10 minutes from the train station that connects Jerusalem with the airport or with Tel Aviv, in fact I did it on foot. Without a doubt, 100% recommended, I will return for sure.

    Unbeatable location, meters from Jaffa Street and a few blocks from the Old City. Very nice place with people of all ages. From there you can take countless excursions. Multiple activities on site make it impossible to get bored. I can't wait to stay there again.

    It's a giant hostal. A city within the city. There is a Pub, two terraces. One of these on top of the roof. Every evening they organize something and it is possible to take tours. Included in the price is breakfast. There are different types of dormitory with bunk beds with cheap price to stay in Jerusalem. However, it is the atmosphere and the staff that make this place exceptional. Thanks for everything . Luca

    Structure equipped and in an excellent position. We stayed in a private room for 2 people with private bathroom: clean and spacious room even if our single beds were a bit small. We also joined several tours organized by the hostel, all of which were very interesting and well organised.
