Right after Pesach?
1. That they have delayed this hotel for some 6 years now. I've never seen a more delayed hotel.
2. That it took them until now to push back from November and that it's pushed off that long.  And you know this one won't stick either :P

The worst part is that you just know they're going to do the same thing that the Hilton Jerusalem did.  Ditched Hilton after a short period of time and became the Citadel :P

Is it likely the rates will stay like this, or do you think it will increase?

So then book it, and if it's delayed again, then request compensation.
It's worked with Gary and the new Andaz in Hawaii.
