Al Bishara Guest House

How do I rate a hotel -- by my decision to return. Sadly, I would skip this B&B. We wanted to love this place based on the reviews but were disapointed. The room could have been cleaner. There was noise at night and early morning coming from the owner's quarters. Breakfast was mediocre. I got the feeling the owner was working on a very tight budget. The pastries, bread, etc were purchased at a grocery store not a bakery. The toilet in room 3 is on an elevated block. Every time we would exit the bathroom we would hit our heads on the ceiling of the door. Besides the location, this B&B was nothing special.

Our host went out of his way to help us. He even helped to park my car in the narrow street near the guesthouse. The breakfast was delicious with plenty of options: omelettes, yogurt with different nuts and an assor**ent of items to add to it. The host respected our privacy. I would not hesitate to return.

We could not find that actual property. We were given instructions to park in a parking lot that was vacant and appeared to be unsafe in the middle of the evening. They then came to meet us and we walked to the property. We were very frustrated in trying to locate the property and circled with the GPS for almost an hour. They were frustrated that we could not understand what they were saying and were not the most patient people to explain exactly what we should do. We have not been to a property where you could not even drive to the area to check in and unload luggage, but had to park and then walk. There is no elevator to the rooms and the stairway is steep. There was peeling paint in the shower with mold. The breakfast was nice.

we stayed 3 nights and excelent service, walk distance to interesting points.

From the moment we arrived until departure, our hosts were exceptional in all aspects of our stay. Accommodated time for breakfast with a great meal with mixed local foods, very clean, coffee station, very ample space throughout, great views of Nazareth with 10 minute walk to street shops and restaurants. Definetely one of the top 2 hotels within our 20 day stay between several hotels In Israel and Turkey , Thank You Again.

Great location, lovely historic home, great customer service.

Our hosts were very hospitable. They met us near our parking place and walked us to the front door. They cooked us local cuisine for breakfast. What a nice surprise! Our room was clean, safe, and quiet. AC was frosty cold. We always had access to coffee/tea/water in the lobby. We were walking distance to shopping and restaurants in the city center. For you Americans (like us), don't expect anything like the Holiday Inn Express or Double Tree or valet parking in the heart of Nazareth at this price point. We got a lot of value for our money in the Al Bishara Guest house. We had to pay $15 per day parking about two blocks away, but it was very convenient since parking is so hard in the city center. If you are looking for an address to GPS, it's not really that easy. You can find Michel House (which is marked pretty well) and Al Bishara is like 100 feet away. You'll want to park at 6089 Street parking lot (your GPS can find it) and then walk.

My daughter and I have a wonderful time .The room and the entire house were very clean, very comfortable, and Mr Bishara the owner was amazing. So kind and friendly.Every morning he served us with a delicious breakfast .Close with the Basilica of Annunciation and others well known places .Beautiful traditional building and shower was amazing He let’s us self check out very later ( He said just drop the keys trough the letter box)which was a really trustful ,kind and helpful.They went over and beyond to help make our stay enjoyable. Very quiet place and safe.Only thing REALLY NEED A BIG SIGN showing where is the THE BISHARA Guest Houses as have a lot guests houses around with no Sign too and took long to find it.But still We will be back again soon.I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Nazareth
