Astrope, Switzerland

Breakfast was excellent and the room spacious. Garden and pool area nice.

Rebecca, United Kingdom

Possibly one of the most outstanding “old” hotels I’ve stayed in, refurbished immaculately to give a taste of the elegance and sophistication of days gone by yet with all mod cons and most wonderful service. I will certainly be visiting the American Colony Hotel again. It might be a little cliched to say, but it really did feel like a home away from home. Highly recommended.

Kevin, Thailand

Everything - building, the fires, room, bar and brasserie. The bookstore is fantastic.

Gordon, Germany

the building itself was wonderful and matched the experience of Jerusalem. the room was very comfortable, the bathroom a bit small (but still ok), the interior harmonious. Never got so high-class shampoos, showergels and body lotions in a hotel stuff was very helpful and friendly. within 10 minutes walk you are in the old town of Jerusalem.

An inside look at The American Colony Hotel - The Leading Hotels of the World

The seeds of the American Colony Hotel were sown in 1902, when Baron Ustinov (grandfather of actor Sir Peter Ustinov),needed suitable accommodation in Jerusalem to house his visitors. Before long, the American Colony became a lodging for Western travelers and pilgrims. The American Colony is still owned and run by the descendants of the original founding community now for 150 years.
