The Franciscan de Marie guest house is a charming little guesthouse situated across the street from the Garden Tomb on Nablus Road in Jerusalem. The Catholic guesthouse opened in 1972 and provides simple accommodations that are quite plain, but very clean. Ample secure parking can be found on site, which is a very important advantage in this area. Additionally, there is a nice chapel on site as well as a spiritual leader affording both pilgrims and independent travelers an opportunity for prayer. Unlike most of the other guest houses in Jerusalem, Franciscan de Marie is air conditioned and telephones are available in the guest rooms. Other facilities include a bar, garden, lecture hall, and dining facilities.
Background
