Overview
The American Colony Hotel, a landmark fairytale get-away in the heart of Jerusalem, has been providing its luxurious hospitality services for more than 120 years. Personified by classic Arabian arches, elaborate furnishings and opulent suites, this elegant boutique hotel prides itself in offering guests an enchanting ‘east-meets-west' experience in a distinctively tranquil and romantic setting. With state-of-the-art amenities for business and leisure travelers and the bygone grandeur of royalty in the Pasha's suite, the American Colony's ambience and splendour enchants its guests with the ultimate blend of modern conveniences and old world charm. Its lush gardens, world-class restaurants, rich theme-night entertainment offerings and quintessential style, have earned the American Colony its distinguished reputation as an ‘oasis' where timeless elegance meets contemporary facilities to provide new and returning guests of all ages with an extraordinary experience.
The American Colony is recognized and respected by the hotel and travel industries. In addition to being voted ”Best Hotel in the Middle East” for two consecutive years (2003-2004) by Condé Nast Traveler magazine, the hotel has also been nominated for the prestigious ”World Travel Award” 2004, as “Best Hotel in Israel”. In 1996, the hotel was awarded membership in the elite Relais & Châteaux association, whose qualifying establishments must exemplify par excellence the “5C's”: Courtesy, Charm, Character, Calm and Cuisine. Those who have already enjoyed the magic of the American Colony have described the hotel as a private kingdom.
The American Colony hotel has hosted many renowned guests from all walks of life: Sir Winston Churchill, Laurence of Arabia, Sir John Gielgud, Lauren Bacall Peter O'Toole, Marc Chagall, Alec Guiness, Richard Widmark, Joan Baez, Richard Gere, Leon Uris, Donald Pleasance, John le Carre, Graham Greene and the Empress of Ethiopia, among many other celebrities and dignitaries, have all made the Colony their home away from home.
The hotel is within walking distance of all of Jerusalem's major sights and within ten minutes of the Damascus Gate in the Old City, with a 45-minute drive from Ben Gurion airport outside Tel Aviv.
