Two of Israel's most well-known and acclaimed hotels, the King David in Jerusalem and Dan in Tel Aviv, are part of the Dan Hotel Chain.
A landmark in Jerusalem, the King David, was originally built in 1930 during the British Mandate. Today it is a charming, modernized facility with views of the Old City, serving as the destination of choice for all of Israel's VIP visitors, from Henry Kissinger to Madonna.
Located on the border of east and west Jerusalem, The American Colony is also another landmark site in Jerusalem. This elegantly designed hotel, which incorporates Middle Eastern décor and antiques, was a 10th century villa for a pasha.
Today it serves as meeting point for journalists, writers, and VIPs. Both the American Colony and King David have been dubbed part of The leading Hotels in the World listing.
