The first Hotel was built in 1907 but was destroyed in the great earthquake that struck Palestine in 1927. The new Hotel to which this label relates was built in 1930 on the site of the original Hotel.

The well known Jericho conference of 1948 was held at the Hotel with the purpose of uniting the East and West Banks under the rule of King Abdullah I. The Hotel closed in 1979. Today the building is considered a cultural building which should be preserved.
