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.
