AccorTel Aviv's restored first hotel
Tel Aviv's original 1913 hostelry has returned as an intimate hotel, rising from preserved historic halls to an open-air rooftop pool.
What it’s good at
Remarkable
Tel Aviv's first hotel from 1913 preserves its stairwell fresco and historic facade.
Listed
Neve Tzedek streets surround the property with Bauhaus architecture and neighborhood artisan boutiques.
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Shabazi Street's boutiques and cafes sit just outside, and Carmel Market is a ten-minute walk north.
The rooms
Rooms take on soft French Riviera tones, finished with custom furniture and sculptural lighting.
The rooftop pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The seventh-floor rooftop pool looks out over the skyline to the Mediterranean Sea, bordered by striped tile decking.
The hammam
Curved, underlit benches and dark mosaic tiles fill the Turkish-style hammam beneath an arched ceiling.
The spa
Five treatment rooms host Clarins facials and signature rituals, beside a quiet lounge with curved sofas and marble tables.
At the table
L'Époque by Robuchon serves French cuisine with Middle Eastern accents downstairs. Upstairs, the rooftop terrace bar pours cocktails over city views.
How it began
Albert Einstein and David Ben-Gurion stayed here in its early years, before the building spent decades as abandoned workshops.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.

The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
