Joy and Evan have done a magnificent job perfectly restoring this architectural masterpiece in the heart of Tzfat. Every detail is perfect, and the style is magnificent and matches the feel and spirituality of Tzfat. As people, Joy and Evan are truly wonderful in how they have considered every detail, and how they take care of you while you are... More

My husband and I stayed for one night during a 10 day trip throughout Israel. Joy and Evan were very hospitable and helpful, providing suggestions for our tour as well as places to visit and eat. the original historic, remodeled cottage sits in a quiet courtyard via an alley, adjacent to the owner's home and has the ambiance of Tzfat...

We spent a relaxing weekend in the smaller guestroom. The domed stone room and small en-suite are clean, beautifully decorated and full of character. After looking around for reasonably priced accommodation in the area, we were so pleased to find this guesthouse. Joy and Evan understand what their guests want and provide many small touches to make the stay even... More

My husband and I stayed in the larger of the two guesthouses. It had two rooms; one which was the living/dining/kitchen area, the other the bedroom. Both rooms had beautiful high domes and all stone walls. they had an authentic "ancient" feel to them that added so much to our tzfat experience. The owners were unbelievably helpful and friendly. They... More

Stayed here over Christmas with my son while touring the north. This was a terrific place. We stayed in the separate guesthouse cottage next to the main house which had a large living room and kitchen and a separate bedroom with two beds, also very large with a domed ceiling and hand picked furniture from the artists in the region,...

Two nights spent here in Safed as a base to explore the Galilee region. Down a small alley, just off a small road with free parking, Artist Quarter Guesthouse was a great find. We stayed in the smaller room, but it was easily big enough for any discerning traveller and was very clean and comfortable, comprising en-suite facilities, small kitchenette... More

Beautiful and charming newly renovated ancient rooms with easy interesting access to the artist and historic quarters. Joy and Evan couldn't be nicer or more helpful. We stayed in the suite because it was our anniversary. Perfect setting. Lovely breakfast. Great value.

We visited Safed in April, 2012. While Safed itself is a wonderful experience, the hosts, Joy and Even make it so much more. We stayed in the small room and found it to be just right for two people. Joy prepared Shabbat dinner which we enjoyed in the room and set up the room for Shabbat - ie lights, hot... More

We spent two nights here on our honeymoon and it was wonderful. Joy and Even were excellent hosts who made us feel like guests in their home. The room was very comfortable and beautiful, right off an intimate courtyard in the Old City of Safed. The building is at least 200 years old, with a stone dome ceiling, arches, and... More

We stayed in this guesthouse during the Kleizmer festival and loved it. The place is magical: a renovated old house with an inner courtyard, in a very nice part of town - the artist quarter. They rent 2 apartments - each of them was a separate stone house with a domed ceiling. We stayed at the smaller of the two... More
