Best Luxury Hotels In Haifa
Israel’s third largest city (after Jerusalem and Tel Aviv) is the country’s major port, a metropolis with a Biblical history. Running from the coast of the Mediterranean, its boundaries encompass the slopes of Mount Carmel, beaches and the German Colony. Haifa is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a place for Baháʼí pilgrimage — you’ll find the Baháʼí Faith’s Baháʼí World Centre and the Baháʼí Gardens here. Hebrew is the country’s official language, but there is a fusion of both Arab and Jewish culture in Haifa, the city dubbed as ‘‘Israel’s San Francisco’’.

Hotel Botanica- Limited Edition By Fattal
Taking inspiration from the Baha’i Garden Terraces, the upscale Hotel Botanica accommodates 163 bedrooms, a spa, Le Grand Marché restaurant and a glass-walled pool terrace on its rooftop. Each has skincare products by Botanica, a Nespresso machine and a minibar; some have balconettes, with every floor in the hotel identified by a different colour and telling a unique story. Nestled into the hillside of Sderot Ben Gurion, within the Wadi Nisnas district, it is perfect for a romantic getaway (the hotel only accepts guests aged 16 and over) and for those wishing to explore the area’s heritage from a plush base.
