A modern reimagining of a historic hotel nestled between the Old City and thriving Jerusalem, The American Colony Hotel rejects simple classification. Here, Ottoman-inspired curves reveal intricate ceramics within the Bakarat Antiquarian, loving reproductions of prints from the hotel’s bookshop archives, and the knotted wood of mulberry trees. Once an American-Swedish commune, the hotel remains a serene space for relaxation and discover – including the flavour combinations at work in its six restaurants or the specialties of its spa.
