Much of Hotel Nordoy’s charm lies in its original features and local architect Amnon Bar Or has overseen a sympathetic architectural restoration…
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Step directly onto Nahalat Binyamin, where artisan craft stalls and lively cafe terraces line the pedestrian avenue.
The rooms
High ceilings and parquet floors pair with warm nude palettes, with select rooms opening onto private corner balconies.
Spa and hot tub
Treatment rooms sit beneath the striped rooftop dome alongside an open-air hot tub set into the sun deck.
At the table
Pereh serves seasonal Levantine fare and house-baked Khorasan wheat bread beside arched windows facing the pedestrian street.
How it began

Built in 1925 by municipal engineer Yehuda Magidovitch, the landmark is celebrated as the city's oldest continuously operating hotel.

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

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