Tel Aviv’s Boutique Hotel Trend
The boutique hotel trend started in the 1980s and it’s still going strong. After all, what better way is there to really get to know a city you’re vacationing in than by staying where the locals live?
Boutique hotels are by definition smaller than traditional large chain hotels, and usually only have between 10 and 100 rooms. These upscale hotels have a contemporary, individualistic look, and are uniquely designed to fit in with the local décor.
Most boutique hotels are contemporary, fun and quirky, which seems perfect for a city as quirky as Tel Aviv.
Boutique hotels are all the rage in Tel Aviv and you’ll find them scattered all over the hippest areas of the city. If you want to get a feel of life in the big city then a stay in one of the boutique hotels situated in the city’s different neighborhoods is the perfect way to do so. Prices of Tel Aviv boutique hotels span from about $190 – $740 a night, so be on the lookout for good deals.
Besides the convenient locations of Tel Aviv’s boutique hotels you’ll enjoy a high level of service at each hotel. Most of them offer fun extras like a spa, a rooftop terrace or even a swimming pool, and delicious local cuisine.
You’ll find some of Tel Aviv’s finest boutique hotels in different areas, some that are more touristy and others where a few years ago you would not have found many tourists at all.
The popular beachfront area boasts a few boutique hotels, as you’d expect, as does Old Jaffa. But, today you will also find these chic urban hotels in the heart of the city, in Rothschild and even in Dizengoff.
