The short answer
In Jerusalem, mehadrin and badatz hotel kitchens serve glatt meat as a matter of course. Searching “glatt kosher hotels Jerusalem” usually means you want a hotel where glatt is the everyday kitchen standard — not an optional upgrade — and where the rest of the kashrus system (milk, produce, mashgiach, Pesach) matches your family’s standard.
All four hotels JRM books are glatt-standard. They still differ on who certifies them (Badatz Eida HaChareidis, Badatz Agudat Yisrael, HaRav Efrati Mehadrin, Badatz Mehadrin Rabbanut + OU), neighborhood, and amenities. Glatt answers the meat question; the hechsher answers whether the hotel is the right fit.
What “glatt” means (and what it does not)
- It is a meat standard — lungs inspected as “smooth,” free of problematic adhesions (sirchos).
- It is not a full hechsher — a hotel can serve glatt meat and still not hold Badatz Eida, Chalav Yisrael everywhere, or your rav’s preferred produce standard.
- Glatt chalak / Beit Yosef is a further stringency some Sephardi and rigorous families require; confirm that specifically if it is non-negotiable.
- Standard Rabbanut hotels may or may not serve glatt — never assume from an old directory listing.
