Dar Sitti Aziza

I stayed here with my father, husband and son in July. I cannot stress enough how beautiful this hotel is. I cannot stress enough how warm and welcoming and incredible the owner is. My father is originally from Bethlehem and him and my mother had walked by this hotel on their last trip and met the owner and his mom by happenstance walking by to visit the holy sites. They were so welcoming and so generously hospitable to my parents that I knew I had to book this place on my next visit. And I am so happy we did. The location is steeped in history. You feel like you've entered a home and a museum and a time capsule of a beautiful world. It is literally steps away from all the religious landmarks and you feel an incredible sense of awe being so close to all of it. The rooms are so comfortable and every room has a story. The owner is so knowledgable about the area and we had such an amazing morning chatting with him over the delicious breakfast that he cooked for us. You MUST stay here if visiting. The owner has the most generous and beautiful heart and knows so much about the city and can point you in any direction. We were visiting from the United States for reference. We were so thankful to the owner and everyone that made our stay truly one of the most memorable experiences ever. The Palestinian hospitality is so beautiful and so heartwarming. You simply can't go wrong staying here! Historic, clean, perfectly located, caring and attentive management, felt like a dream! Book it

I'm so sorry we only stayed for one night! Nabil greeted us outside and led us into his beautifully restored family home. We were his only guests and he could not have been more welcoming. Our room was lovely, and Nabil drove us to a restaurant in Beit Sahour (via Banksy's murals), picked us up afterwards, and even treated us to knafeh on the way home. And then...the legendary breakfast, eaten on the terrace. The range of home-made preserves was astonishing, and the eggs (cooked to his mother's secret recipe) were absolutely delicious. We thoroughly recommend a stay at Dar Sitti Aziza.

This is a lovely hotel in an excellent location. The breakfast is so nice, served in a courtyard under a pistachio tree. The host is very kind, friendly and thoughtful. I have stayed in several hotels in Bethlehem, this is the best one that I would recommend.

Simply an incredible experience staying here! Nabil is such a great host and gentleman. We enjoyed spending time with him and learning about the history of his family home. From being very accommodating to our schedule, to the amazing breakfast he prepared featuring his mother's secret recipe for eggs, to driving us around to see original Banksy art, and treating us as friends instead of customers... we cannot say enough great things about our experience! We will be back!!

Great location for access to all the Xmas activities. Close enough to walk but far enough away to not hear all the activities happening in the late evening. Very comfortable and Nabil was an excellent host.

This property is so charming with traditional features like stone walls and old glass. The terrace is lovely and the breakfast was outstanding. The family that owns it is very kind and helpful. The only thing that I wouldn’t give 5 stars for is that the bathroom is dated but it is clean and you aren’t going to Bethlehem looking for a 5 star bathroom. I highly recommend this place!

Amazing hotel and experience walking distance from Churche and market Beautiful hotel old texture , the rooms are very comfortable great service Historic hotel with a beautiful story ( ask the owner about the hotel story) and don’t miss the breakfast

We spent one night in this excellent hotel, very conveniently located at 50 metres from the Nativity basilisk and the grotto. We were welcomed so warmly by the owner, Nabil, who made us feel like being hosted by a good friend, accompanying us to visit several locations in the city and explaining us the Palestinian history. Boutique style hotel, in a very well refurbished old charming typical house. Unforgettable breakfast prepared with love and offered with pride by Nabil and his kind assistant.

My husband and I came to visit the place in Bethlehem where Lord Jesus was born. The owner of this beautiful unique hotel is from one of the oldest Christian families in the world. He is such a kind and wonderful host. To stay in the ‘Emily’ room was a privilege. We have never been to a hotel like it. I had a life changing spiritual experience in the oldest church in the world the next morning. The hotel is only 300m from this church. The owner Nabil, then organised for us to have a driver Ashraf to take us to the ‘Shepherd’s field’. He also was an amazing guide and took us to Herod’s castle and then to the checkpoint. It was all an amazing experience. Nabil’s breakfast is beyond words. His own home made jams are so delicious and his mother’s recipe for eggs we have never had anything like it in the world. It was so fabulous when we return we would like to stay much longer. Thank you to Nabil and Ashraf for helping us to have such a life changing experience!
