The Sephardic House is a boutique hotel in Jerusalem, Israel. The hotel is located in Batei Mahase street in a building built by the Ottomans between 1860 - 1890. Originally the neighborhood "Batei Mahase" was built by Germans and Dutch Jews to house the homeless and the needy.

The area has seen quite a few rulers in the last centry. It was taken over by the Arab Legion in 1948 and freed by the IDF in the 1967 Six-Day War.

The Sephardic House is located in The Jewish Quarter of the Old City - a walking distance from all the major holy sites in the Old City.
