Villa Brown boutique hotel in jerusalem

What better location to create one of Jerusalem’s finest boutique hotels than a 19th century private villa? Belonging to a local, respected doctor and a famous socialite of the era, this villa was not only used as a private residence, but also as a venue to host receptions, balls, and extravagant dinner parties. Jerusalem’s elite society, diplomats, and dignitaries graced these hallways and celebrated in these corridors.

While constructing Villa Brown, to ensure that the spirit of this villa was not lost, Jerusalem-based architects Galit Shifman, Bar-Natan, and Michal Cohen Magen were hired to completely restore the villa (adding in two additional floors and a spa) while retaining its original charm and character. The design of the hotel was inspired by the connection between East and West and the eclectic nature of the “Israeli melting pot” culture and design. Bright shades of red, emerald, and blue are fused together in perfect harmony throughout the hotel’s stunning décor.
