| The US President will stay at the King David Hotel, a popular choice for world leaders when they visit Israel. In preparation for the visit, two buses loaded with heavy equipment and weapons will be parked in front of the hotel, in case of any bomb-laden vehicles plotting an attack. Photo: Shutterstock. |

| The hotel's presidential suite costs about $5,700 with a separate air conditioning system and the ability to resist bombs and toxic gases. The US side is still not assured about this, they brought their own bulletproof glass and installed it in the room's windows. Photo: Daily Mail. |
