Crowne Plaza City Centre Tlv is perhaps Tel Aviv’s most modern hotel. Set next to Azrieli shopping centre, it features an Olympic-sized indoor swimming pool, and large fitness centre.

Rooms at the Crowne Plaza are truly unique, all offering views across Tel Aviv centre. An LCD TV, bathrobe, and tea/coffee maker come as standard. The majority of rooms have a personal computer and media centre with webcam.

On the Crown Plaza’s 11th floor you can dine at the gourmet restaurant and sushi bar, open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The cuisine is kosher, with creative recipes. The wine list includes Israel’s best labels.

Other highlights at the City Centre Tlv include free parking and a large business lounge, open 24-hours a day.

The hotel’s unusual design is evident as soon as you enter with its minimalist style, contrasting monochrome colours, and a video art exhibition.

Tel Aviv HaShalom Railway Station is right next to the hotel, which is surrounded by some of the city’s most impressive skyscrapers.

A free shuttle service to/from the sea is available. Ben Gurion Airport is a 15-minute drive away.
