Amdursky Hotel, Heritage hotel near Jaffa Gate, Jerusalem, Israel.
The Amdursky Hotel is a stone structure featuring 19th-century traditional design elements with original details preserved throughout its layout. The building displays classic architecture of that era, including arched doorways, carved stonework, and period floor plans.
The property was built in 1841 and served as a kosher establishment for many years before shifting its focus in the 1930s. It then passed through several owners across the following decades, each phase reflecting Jerusalem's changing circumstances.
The building carries visible signs of Jewish heritage, such as preserved mezuzah marks on its doorframes, telling the story of communities that shaped this city over generations. These marks show how religious practice became part of the structure itself.
The hotel sits right at the entrance to Jerusalem's Old City, offering direct access to major religious sites and cultural landmarks. Visitors can reach all the main attractions of ancient Jerusalem on foot without extensive walking.
Recent renovations uncovered hidden architectural features and historical layers that reveal how the building transformed over its lifetime. These discoveries exposed stages of construction and modification that had been concealed beneath later changes.
