Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
The horrible staff threatened me because of the lights . No air conditioning.it was hot and noisy . Don’t go there and waste your money. I have been to all the Abraham’s hostels in Israel and this is the worst case I have had to deal with today! No

Be prepared to walk a few steps to reach this old world charm of a place! :-) Staff were very warm and friendly. Kudos to Zaher, he went that extra mile to make me feel very welcome. The room was spacious, big bed, lovely bedding and air-conditioned with an on-suite bathroom. Had an under-counter fridge, tea and coffee station. Lovely seating on the patio areas to relax on during the cool of the late afternoons. Tasty Arabian/ Mediterranean breakfast on offer. Lovely cold water, Aromatic Arabian coffee and delicious cake are available throughout the day for free!! Tours are offered of the city as well as further afield such as of the Galilean region. It is also the place from which to start the multi-day (4 - 5 days ) hike, the Jesus Trail. The support I got from Waseem of Abraham Tours, both the prep talk on arrival and during my solo hike of the Jesus Trail, was out of this world!!! Shokran jzylaan, Waseem! …

The charming haus Fauzi Azar by Abraham located in the old town close to all the attractions. According to my memories, it is a very pleasant accommodation: the interior is cosy, special and oriental. The service is friendly and smart. The whole accommodation is very tastefully and creatively decorated. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to stay in the old town of Nazareth.

We had a very nice stay at Fauzi Azar. The staff is super friendly and helpful and eager to share insights on how to enjoy your stay in Nazareth to the fullest. The hostel is located in the old city center in a cosy narrow street. The accomodation itself is an authentic old building. It was one of the most memorable stay in Israel, we highly recommend it!

We had a wonderful weekend in the beautiful old city of Nazereth. The bus from Tel Aviv (Savidor Train Station) takes about 2 hours and will drop you on the main road. We stored our lugguage at the train station since we were returning to Tel Aviv on our way back from Jerusalem. Made life so much easier. We walked from there up the hill to the hostel. There are taxis around but we opted to walk instead. Our hosts Michelan and Sharif were very gracious, welcoming, professional and super friendly. We booked a private room which were on the top floor with beautiful views of the entire hostel and parts of the city. The room was simple yet very clean. We also did both free walking tours offerred by the hostel which were very informative and helpful. Do not forget to walk to Mount Precipice (sunset) which takes about 45 min one way. The breakfast was Mediteranian with fresh breads, cheese, jams and fruit, cereals and coffee. Very delicious and adequate to get you started. There are also plenty of coffee shops in the old city. Try the Knafe!! Freshly made on the spot. If you like spices do not forget to take the tour with Michela. She will take you to some very interesting spots around the old city. Thank you for a wonderful and unforgettable memory!!…

The beautiful Fauzi Azar Hostel is in a stunning historic building with breathtaking ceiling paintings, a courtyard, and inviting public spaces. It offers an amazing view over the city and the landmark Church of the Annunciation, located right in the heart of Nazareth’s old town. Both the private room as well as the dorms and facilities were super clean, the breakfast was delicious and the staff friendly and accommodating. We hugely enjoyed our 3 night stay at Fauzi and will happily recommend it to anyone traveling to Nazareth. Absolutely worth its money and hugely enjoyable!

Lovely quirky hotel. Loved the rooms (with our Narnia style bathroom) and the courtyard. Good breakfast and helpful staff. My only negative comment is about the “free” walking tour. It’s not free. The guide expected a tip and said so before he started. The tour was also just politically motivated with very little history of Nazareth itself. The guide just gave his own views on how awful the Israelis are. This was disappointing and not what I expected. Great place to start our Jesus Trail walk.

Firstly, we want to emphasize that our intention was solely to provide a comprehensive historical and political overview of Nazareth during the tour. Our aim was never to label Israelis or Palestinians as awful in any way. We apologize if this wasn't clearly conveyed during the tour, as it's important for us to create an inclusive and respectful environment for all our guests. We're truly surprised to hear that you felt there was little history discussed about Nazareth. Our goal is to immerse visitors in the rich tapestry of Nazareth's past, and we're sorry if we fell short in delivering that experience for you. Regarding the concept of "free" walking tours, we understand that it may raise some questions. While tips are traditionally expected as a way for tour guides to make a living, we want to assure you that giving a tip is entirely voluntary. We never want anyone to feel obligated in any way, and we apologize if there was any misunderstanding or pressure during your tour. As a token of our apology and to make up for any inconvenience caused, we would be delighted to offer you a discount or a complimentary drink during your next stay with us. We genuinely value your patronage and hope that we can have the opportunity to make it up to you, dear guest. If there's anything else we can do to enhance your experience, please let us know. Fauzi team
