The Talk of Tel Aviv

In Israel's dynamic metropolis, a striking new hotel combines historic architecture, high design, and transcendent food.

The Talk of Tel Aviv

ON ROTHSCHILD BOULEVARD, in the heart of Tel Aviv, sits one of the city's most beautiful examples of Bauhaus architecture. Number 48, built as a private residence in the 1930s, was purchased by Canadian philanthropists Heather Reisman and Gerry Schwartz in 1999. Their goal of opening a hotel in the building was realized last year: R48 debuted with 11 suites and has already become one of the city's most coveted bookings.

Architects Avital Gourary and Natanel Elfassy of Tel Aviv firm AN+ collaborated with the Israel Conservation Authority on the project, which saw the addition of a striking boxlike glass structure at the entrance, allowing natural light to pour in. Original elements have been carefully preserved, including an internal staircase and the thermometer-shaped windows that extend vertically up two corners of the building-a feature unique to Bauhaus architecture.
