Kibbutz Ramat Rachel is situated on a hilltop overlooking the magnificent panorama of Jerusalem's Old City, the Dead Sea, and the Judean Hills. The kibbutz was established in 1926 and now numbers 400—members, children, soldiers, and residents. Ramat Rachel also has a close and friendly link with the surrounding community, through its hotel, banquet hall, sports center, treatment facilities, educational centers, and cultural activities.
The Ramat Rachel Hotel offers the best of Israeli hospitality on an international level, with 164 spacious guest rooms offer breathtaking views of the hills surrounding Jerusalem. The hotel restaurant has kosher certification.
The hotel also offers attractive and well equipped banquet and conference halls for any size occasion, with the added option of the services of the dynamic and experienced MDR Design team, experienced in creating the perfect event using flower crafting and decorative design.
Adjacent to the hotel is the Ramat Rachel Sports Center, a health and treatment complex that features a semi-Olympic-size swimming pool, covered and heated in winter; special attractions for children; a large, state-of-the-art fitness room; exercise classes of all types; three tennis courts; a basketball court; a spa offering a variety of luxurious and rejuvenating treatments for individuals, couples, and groups.
Children from the surrounding neighbourhood enjoy Ramat Rachel's educational facilities, both on the kibbutz itself—in infant and toddler daycare centers, kindergartens, and after-school programs—and at the Yedidut preschool, a center for young children in the nearby neighborhood of Arnona.
The experienced staff of Ramat Rachel's Learning Center assists children, teenagers, and adults with individual treatment and support targeted to a range of specific needs.
Eyal's Farm is an ecological center providing unique and effective treatment for emotional problems through the care of animals and contact with nature.
The Art Center offers classes in painting and drawing, sculpture, ceramics, music, and woodblock printing. The center also provides guidance to students in preparing their portfolios for acceptance to art schools.
Beit Sababa is Ramat Rachel's nursing center for senior citizens—a facility offering high-quality care in a warm and pleasant setting. Treatment and activities are suited to a range of health conditions.
Ramat Rachel's proximity to Jerusalem is ideal for easy-going and enjoyable tours. One highlight is the Archeological Park, which offers both a fascinating look into the distant past and a spectacular view of modern-day Jerusalem.
The newly opened road to Ramat Rachel makes the Kibbutz and its facilities even more accessible.

Ecology Activities and Animal Therapy
About Eyal's Farm
Eyal's Farm is an ecological learning center built in memory of Eyal Yoel, a young man born and raised on Kibbutz Ramat Rachel who was killed as an I.D.F. reserve soldier in the 2002 Defense Shield Operation. The farm is a joint initiative of the Yoel Family and the kibbutz. Eyal loved animals and nature, and preserving the environment was one of his prime concerns. At the time of his death, he was working on the final project for his bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering at Ben-Gurion University. He planned to go on to earn a master's degree and work in the field of environmental quality and nature preservation. The farm was created as a way of continuing Eyal's intended path in life.
The farm's staff raises and cares for a variety of domestic animals, tends a vegetable garden and fruit tree orchard, manufactures organic compost, and builds structures using environmentally friendly methods. The farm also conducts a range of activities for children and adults. It hosts classes of children with special needs, some of them wheelchair-restricted, as well as classes from state-sponsored religious schools. There are afternoon activity programs, summer and Passover holiday camps, and birthday celebrations as well. Members of the staff provide weekly tours and demonstrations for children in the kibbutz preschools and after-school programs, and for the elderly residents of its nursing home.
All visitors are treated to a tour of the farm, including an up-close look at its flora and fauna. With advance notice, the staff also arranges for creative activities using natural materials—recycled paper constructions, herbal sachets, outdoor-baked pitas, mud sculptures, and the like—as well as tours focused on particular animals or plants.
Eyal's Farm also provides animal-assisted treatment for children and adults with disabilities. The farm's pleasant, pastoral atmosphere offers ideal conditions for treatment; it reduces initial resistance and allows caregivers to establish a more sensitive, secure, and accepting relationship with the people they are assisting. The staff invites anyone interested in this type of treatment to arrange for a visit to receive more information.
