Akkotel

Description:

• Opened in 2007, this charming 16-room boutique hotel, set in a lovingly restored building right against the walls of the Old City, offers a great chance to overnight in Old Akko and enjoy the city's atmosphere. It's not a luxury hotel, but everything is fresh, atmospheric, and carefully designed, with traditional arches and exposed stone walls. Large, one-of-a-kind guest rooms are equipped with modern amenities and comfortable beds. Larger rooms can fit families; bathrooms have either a tub or a shower. Owner Ilya Morani and his family are most welcoming and helpful about explaining the intricate Old City; a rooftop terrace and restaurant offers spectacular views. Dining facilities are not kosher.
