U2 Frontman Bono Stays at the King David Hotel Jerusalem
Bono signed the King David guestbook, in which he described the King David as a "great hotel in a great city," and was spotted touring Jerusalem's Old City holy sites.

The King David Hotel Jerusalem, one of the world's legendary hotels, is a major landmark in a unique city. Blending the past and old world refinement, the King David Hotel is unquestionably the most famous of all Jerusalem hotels. Superbly located on an elevated site, the King David Hotel Jerusalem offers incomparable views of the walls, minarets and domes of the Old City. Built in the 1920's at the meeting point of the historic Old City and dynamic New Jerusalem, the King David Hotel delights the eye with stately pink quartz exteriors and exotic public rooms decorated with motifs that recreate a bygone romantic era. Other singular attractions of the King David Hotel are the spacious private gardens that enclose green lawns, a tennis court, adults' and children's swimming pools (heated during the season), as well as a children's playground and quiet corners for relaxing. Guest rooms and suites of the King David Hotel are a harmony of elegance and luxury and distinguished by solicitous attention and devotion to detail. The official venue in Jerusalem for banquets and state occasions, the King David Hotel has always been the hotel of choice for world leaders and famous personalities.
