Stay at the Three Arches and be happy in the knowledge that your hotel is one of modern Jerusalem's most recognisable landmarks. Beneath the soaring 46m clock tower, the main building has ornate ceilings and huge, brassy chandeliers; rooms are creakier but classily attired (quality bedlinen, crimson trimmings and the occasional flash of gold).
Breakfast is an astonishing spread of salads, shakshuka (a rich egg-and-tomato breakfast dish), halva (sesame-paste nougat) and everything your gluttonous heart desires; the experience is made even better by the outdoor dining tables beneath stone arches and trees.
The large attached fitness centre has been completely renovated.
