Small Luxury Hotels of the World Announces Their First Hotel In Israel
Owner and the country's most famous seafood restaurateur, Uri Jeremias is behind SLH's newest affiliation. The hotel has been meticulously restored complete with Byzantine walls and cellars dating back to the 12th century. Guests can enjoy the spa complete with a 400-year old hammam or take in the breath-taking views from the rooftop terrace.

Acre, often referred to as "the old city" hosts an impressive list of distinct experiences you'll not find anywhere else. Minutes from the hotel you can wander through the narrow streets and find yourself in a secret underground passage that will take you to the halls built by the Knights Templar and then continue to the Templar Tunnels. Also, before leaving you must be sure to check out Uri Buri's, the famous eatery, for a meal you'll not soon forget.

Paul Kerr, CEO of Small Luxury Hotels of the World, says: "We are constantly looking to expand our brand by adding the very finest hotels and most authentic experiences to our portfolio. The addition of Efendi in Israel is an exciting milestone for us and a very important addition to our brand portfolio as we expand in Israel."

With 12 crisp white rooms complete with comfy leather chairs and ceiling frescoes guests experience the perfect balance of ancient and modern ensuring an authentic yet relaxing stay. The hideaway is a 46km from Ben Gurion International Airport in Tel Aviv.
