The Drisco Hotel

The Drisco Hotel puts you on a quiet street in Tel Aviv’s American-German Colony, with Alma Beach within a 9-minute walk.

The room setup is more specific than a generic city-hotel room: rooms include marble bathrooms, flat-screen TVs, Nespresso machines, and courtesy minibars. Some rooms add a balcony or a sea view, and suites add a separate living room, so the stay can feel more residential if you choose that category.

The stay works well on site because breakfast is served at the hotel, with seating connected to the patio. The Drisco Hotel also has the George & John restaurant in the building, a bar, a rooftop terrace, a spa treatment room, and a gym, so you do not need to leave the property for every meal, drink, or wellness break.

Practical services are part of the appeal here. Valet parking is available at the hotel, and bicycles are available for guests, which fits the Tel Aviv location near Jaffa, Neve Tzedek, and the southern beaches without turning the stay into a car-only trip.

The building itself is part of the experience. The Drisco Hotel is in a restored 19th-century property with arched windows and a portico, and the setting around Auerbach Street is made up of historic houses rather than a high-rise hotel strip.

One limit is clear: The Drisco Hotel is not kosher. Travelers who need a kosher hotel kitchen should treat that as a deciding point before booking.
