Airport Guide
Compare 5 airports near Jerusalem
For most travelers, Ben Gurion Airport (TLV) is the primary and most practical international gateway to Jerusalem, located in a nearby city. It offers the best combination of speed and budget, with high-speed rail and bus connections making it significantly more accessible than others. Haifa Airport (HFA), situated in the nearby city of Haifa, is primarily used for domestic and regional flights; travelers arriving here face a much longer journey to Jerusalem. Queen Alia International Airport (AMM) and Amman Civil Airport (ADJ) are located in the nearby city of Amman, Jordan, serving as regional hubs; international travel from these airports to Jerusalem involves complex border crossings. Finally, Gurayat Domestic Airport (URY) in the nearby city of Gurayat, Saudi Arabia, is far removed and suited only for very specific regional itineraries. Generally, choose Ben Gurion for convenience and speed, while only consider the Jordanian or Saudi options if your travel plan specifically requires visiting those regions first.

The hotel is ideally located for this boring city for a tourist, a gorgeous view of the bay, a park nearby.
Terrible noise isolation, on Shabbat night, a neighbor gave us a party with dances and songs. Heard his every word clearly. The breakfasts are superb.
The city of Haifa itself is uninteresting and boring, there is nothing to look at, nowhere to walk.FromUS$182

Great hotel, great choice for breakfast, refined and healthy. The rooms are also beautiful, with large stone buildings, typical of the Jerusalem style.
