Kashrus & Hechsher
Which kosher hotels in Jerusalem are glatt kosher?
Two of the four hotels JRM books document glatt outright: Jerusalem Gate (glatt kosher under Badatz Mehadrin Rabbanut Yerushalayim plus OU) and Haneviim Boutique (Glatt LeMehadrin under Badatz Eida HaChareidis). Prima Palace (Badatz Agudat Yisrael) and Yirmiyahu 33 (Mehadrin by HaRav Efrati) sit at the mehadrin/badatz standard frum families rely on for glatt-level kashrus, and we confirm the specific glatt policy in writing per booking. More broadly, the mehadrin and badatz hotels in Jerusalem serve glatt meat as a baseline; standard-Rabbanut hotels may not.
"Glatt" means the animal's lungs were free of problematic adhesions — a meat standard most chareidi and yeshivish families treat as a baseline, not an upgrade. In a Jerusalem hotel it tracks the hechsher: a mehadrin or badatz kitchen serves glatt meat as a matter of course, while a standard Rabbanut hotel may or may not. So the practical question is not only "is it glatt?" but "which hechsher?", because that is what determines it.
Among the four hotels we book, glatt is documented outright at two: Jerusalem Gate is glatt kosher under Badatz Mehadrin Rabbanut Yerushalayim with OU, and Haneviim Boutique is Glatt LeMehadrin year-round under Badatz Eida HaChareidis. Prima Palace (Badatz Agudat Yisrael) and Yirmiyahu 33 (Mehadrin by HaRav Efrati with a Mashgiach Temidi) sit at the mehadrin/badatz standard the same families rely on for glatt-level kashrus. If glatt — or glatt chalak / Beit Yosef specifically — is non-negotiable for your family, we confirm the specific glatt policy in writing for your exact hotel and dates.
