Been before a few years ago. We were delayed arriving because local celebrations blocked the road to the parking lot - don't try to park outside as very narrow streets. Phoned and spoke with Emil who directed us to the alternative lot. Our room in the rooftop extension is 5 stars with en-suite bathroom (hand + rain shower) all beautifully clean. Superbly comfortable bed. Balcony views to the Church of the Annunciation which is considered one of the largest Christian sites of worship in the Middle East. Again Emil met us at breakfast in the adjoining room. He prepared a superb herb omelette that arrived piping hot as we finished selecting from the cheese, bread, salads and cakes buffet. The local herbs are just different! The charming founder Michel still makes his daily round, while his grandson runs reception. Their pictures show the quality of the experience you'll enjoy.

That we left it so long to return! We'll be back soon with friends.

A beautiful old and well preserved building, located at the heart of the old city, in walking distance to main attractions, cafe and restaurants. Parking available for guests which was a great plus in this area. Rooms tastefully and thoughtfully decorated as well as the public spaces. Comfortable bed and good air conditioning which was essential. Lots of sitting areas to enjoy both indoors and multiple terraces overlooking the city. Friendly and helpful staff, great hospitality.

The only thing to comment is an incident when a tourist guide with a group of people was allowed to use the terrace to show them the city and lecture them for about 15 minutes, interrupting us while we were sitting there to enjoy a quiet glass of wine.

Immediately charming guesthouse with such an evident amount of care to the upkeep and the purposeful layout ensuring guests have the best of stays. The genuine kindness and hospitality of Emil created such a lovely welcome and provided a sense of familiarity that prompted our booking a few more days. The rooms are comfortable, spotlessly clean and equipped and guests have access to some beautiful balconies on an array of levels to take in the calming vista and ambience of a truly lovely old city. The property provided an uninterrupted comfort that really permitted the full feeling & atmosphere of such a beautiful historical and spiritually significant land. We really couldn’t say enough about our stay & we will recommend with enthusiasm to others. Faultless! Not a single complaint or any want for more and we left feeling like we would be recognized and welcome back genuinely like friends.

That time couldn’t stand still :-)

This hotel is a miracle. It's even more beautiful than the photos. From the moment I stepped in the door, the family who run it treated me so well. I loved every single thing about Michel House, from the building, to my brand new comfortable room, to the furnishings, perfectly clean, mini-fridge, balcony room, complimentary coffee and Turkish coffee, beautiful common areas, rainfall shower, and a completely extraordinary homemade breakfast of 20+ dishes. The three generations of family here run a warm, friendly, yet professional hotel. The bed was so comfortable that for the first time on my three-week trip, I just slept and read and hung around the hotel for sheer pleasure. On top of all that, it's easy to walk anywhere in Nazareth, near all major sights, good restaurants, and transport by bus. Incredible views as well and beautiful places to eat. This is a very special place run by lovely people who understand hosting, service, and kindness.

There is nothing at all to dislike. It's a highly unique and beautiful hotel, a modern palace blending the old with the new.

Michel House is a remarkable boutique hotel in the midst of the old city of Nazereth, close to the market, in an old well preserved historical house. Rooms have all the comfort and the service perfect is just perfect. Comfortable room, well equipped and they serve an excellent breakfast. They also organized a close parking (difficult area for parking). I would warmly recommend that hotel…

The only missing point was the choice of TV, but that was not a big issue

Location was great. Property was very unique and picturesque and photographs so well. Could have sat on the little patio for hours, just to enjoy the view and listen to the city. Host was very friendly and welcoming. Michel himself, the owner, came out for breakfast to greet everyone. Breakfast was not included, but for an extra $15 per person, it was pretty good. Emil I believe his name was, who works at front desk was very helpful with anything we needed.

We had an extremely hard time finding it with multiple different GPS. It kept telling us to take turns that were closed off. It took us over an hour of driving in circles to find a parking lot.

Absolutely fabulous location in the old town, with extremely friendly staff, great rooms, and in my case the best possible view over the old city on the nativity church. Could not have been better!! Overall it has a fantastic seating deck overlooking the old city, and homemade breakfast with local specialities.

Basically nothing. The bathroom was a little small in my room, but this wasn't a real problem since I travelled by myself. Parking is a problem, although I had no car, but there are parking lots a few minutes walk away.

We had a wonderful stay at the Michel House. The hotel is located in the older, most interesting section of Nazareth. The hotel itself is a beautiful old building that has all the modern comforts we required, so it was the best of both worlds. The staff members (Emile & others) were knowledgeable, efficient, courteous and friendly, and they cared for us well. The view of Nazareth from the rooftop dining area is amazing and was a highlight of our stay. We had never visited Nazareth before, but we hope to return one day and would love to stay at the Michel House once again.

Excellent location near to everything we wanted to do and see in Nazareth. The hosts, old Mr Michel and his manager Emil(?) are such friendly warm people that I had flashbacks to old friendships I had. The architecture of the house and the neighbourhod are so interesting. Michel's House has its own area in a parking lot and no parking fees. The breakfast was tasty, healthy and filling even for a person like me did not enjoy Middle Eastern food that much.

Could be too difficult for elderly and little children as there are lots of stairs. Our room was on the third level and carrying our bags up to the rooms was not easy.

What an amazing place! A rare combination of a great hotel very well kept with an incredible welcoming and friendly staff! From start to end the experience was perfect - a special location in a renovated building in the old city, through the check in process that was welcoming and very helpful, continue with a brand new room, super clean and comfortable. We also had some great cocktails in the hotel bar, also great service and amazing views. Above all - we were supposed to leave early before breakfast, as we had a meeting before breakfast time. Michel himself invited us to come an hour earler so we don't miss breakfast - and it was AMAZING!!! Vast selection of home made salads, bread, eggs - all in a beautiful balcony and with a very kind service and attention. Michel honored us with his presence in our breakfast table, telling us some of his history. The only downside - why didn't we come for 2 nights :-) BUT we will definitely come again!!!
