At Leonardo Plaza Hotel Jerusalem, reviewers consistently praise the central location near major sights and its generous kosher breakfast, while feedback on service and room quality is mixed, noting both warm, accommodating staff and complaints about dated interiors and lapses.

Cleanliness varies, with some guests reporting dirty bathrooms or dusty rooms, and parking is limited with a small lot that can be full.

The hotel is in a great location! It is near transportation, restaurants, shopping and Old City! The employees were very helpful and welcoming. Breakfast had a nice variety of foods. Our room was comfortable and clean. Nice amenities! We had a nice spread of goodies and a welcome note from general manager with her cell phone if we needed anything! Nice touch! We will go back!

The hotel needs a total refurb. The bathrooms are ancient and the aircon sounds like a tractor in reverse and controls are not accurate. Parking is just impossible as the car park is always full. The only plus is location and breakfast was amazing. But room comfort is not even one star. And general staff service is ....they dont really care. The security guys are out to show force and always shout at you. I will not stay there again. In one word. Ugh.

The Plaza is located in a central location and advertises parking available - something not as available at Jerusalem hotels. Breakfast is fine - in my experience middle of the road for hotels 3 star and above in Jerusalem and is included. Factually - parking is very limited with a very small lot and the communication from reception to new guests is poor. This can mean as happened with me, that you find out with sparse information of details of alternative parking (not a Plaza property) late at night upon returning to a full lot. Security and front desk staff in the middle of night is not focused on customer srevice to help in the parking.

The hotel is directly across the street from the Great Synagogue in Jerusalem. Super convenient for the holidays. They offer meals for all of the holiday days.Shabbat elevators. Kosher. Services in the hotel itself if you don’t want to go across the street. They provided the Yahrzeit candle that I let for my parents.

Please don't use the "war" excuse -- we experienced two other Jerusalem hotels during our stay, both with attentive people, clean facilities -- which this hotel doesn't have. Seems like they're on austerity -- the pancake maker doesn't show, so there's no pancakes. No one to help with the luggage. Room not spic and span clean -- old hairs in the bathroom. To their credits parking was easy.

One of the most if not the most bountiful kosher breakfast in the world. Fully outfitted gym. Nice davening and restauurantat the hotel.

The view is amazing, when you arrive at the hotel you are greeted by a glorious lobby, everything screams fancy until you check-in and get to the room, the room is incredibly dated and i found it to be quite dusty too. The shower head was too low, (i am only 5ft11 and had to crouch to stay under is) The breakfast was amazing, one of the best hotel breakfasts around, it's a shame the rest of the hotel falls short as the food is really high quality. I believe based on the current condition of the hotel, they should either lower their prices or give the rooms and common areas some TLC.

We came as an emergency booking for our grandmothers funeral all the way from Miami. We had booked 2 rooms but one person was unable to make the trip so we only needed one room. We called and called but nobody bothered picking up the phone. When we got there we told them that and the receptionist looked at the computer and confirmed there was only one room in our reservation. We were also told that for a fee we can get a late checkout since our flight back 2 days later was at midnight. At checkout despite rooms available in virtually EVERY category on Hotels.com that night she tells us there are no rooms available to allow a late checkout and they start banging on our door at 11:05 am to throw us out waking up my grieving wife who had trouble falling asleep until 5am. Then to top it off after checkout we see a charge for the second room! After getting the run around from Hotels and the Reception ( each telling me the other one is responsible and the hotel central not picking up the phone) we still got nowhere. This while here for a funeral. I do not like being lied to. My family has stayed at this place before and I have made it my mission to not have any of them ever come again! If you like being lied to and aggravated this is the place for you. If you want an honest place to stay- clean and comfortable go anywhere else!

séjour professionnel - Chambre confortable - accueil parfait - je retournerai sans hésitation. Petite histoire pour illustrer le sens du service client : Nous avons du quitter l'hôtel 1 jour plus tôt suite à une erreur sur la date du billet de retour. Bien que l'hôtel n'en n'avait pas l'obligation , ils ont accepté très naturellement le remboursement de la nuit supplémentaire et surtout ont fait le nécessaire pour que hotels.com valide cette annulation, ce qui n'était pas naturel de la part de hotels.com. Un grand merci à toutes les personnes du lobby et plus particulièrement à Ronit, du service relation client
