Armenian Hospice

Situated off the Via Dolorosa 

Description of the Armenian Hospice

The historic guest house provides a quiet and unassuming atmosphere just steps away from the main shuk, and a 5 minute walk to the Damascus Gate. The facility’s rooms are plain, yet clean, and provide a safe haven to all people seeking accommodations. The entrance gates provide a strong physical separation from the surrounding activity as well as provide ample security to guests residing at the property. Just beyond the entrance gates lies a beautiful courtyard equipped with a restaurant, and outdoor tables and chairs making it the perfect setting for warm spring or summer afternoon. The setting is quite popular for tour groups seeking a meal break in the middle of the afternoon. The retail store is also quite popular to area tourists seeking that appropriate gift to take back home.
