About the neighbourhood
The Rova Arches suite is situated in the heart of the historic Jewish Quarter of the Old City. You'll find countless cafés and shops within steps, not to mention the Western Wall, Dome of the Rock, Hurva synagogue, Herodian Quarter, and much more!
Getting around
You will be within walking distance of countless historical and cultural sites! We highly recommend getting around on foot, as much as possible. The light rail runs near the Old City, and that can be convenient, as well. Rental cars are not recommended, as you may not be permitted to enter the Old City in it.
