The Waldorf Astoria Jerusalem hotel represents a spectacular, Park Avenue-style presence in the heart of Jerusalem.In its former incarnation as the Palace Hotel Jerusalem, the magnificent Waldorf Astoria Jerusalem hotel building was originally built in 1923, and was widely and deservedly lauded as one of the City's most beautiful and inspired architectural works.The original facade represents a subtle but breath-taking fusion of Greco-Roman, Gothic and Ottoman architecture, and has been painstakingly preserved, complete with magnificent soaring arches and ornate arabesque embellishments.The hotel's grand staircase has also been lovingly restored piece-by-piece, with the rest of the building fitted out and embellished to the highest degrees of luxury to ensure that it meets with the Waldorf Astoria's esteemed reputation for excellence
