Agent Tips

  • For the perfect stay and a complete experience in Tel Aviv, make sure to book a table at George & John to enjoy the exceptional cuisine of Chef Yaron Fishniak.
Accommodations

Rooms with views over Tel Aviv and Jaffa.

The Drisco's forty-two rooms and suites are spread across the main building and the adjacent stand-alone Villa Drisco, each individually designed to weave the hotel's nineteenth-century bones together with contemporary detail. The look throughout is the work of architect and interior designer Ari Shaltiel: warm, considered, and rooted in the character of the American-German Colony.
Gym

Modern equipment, open around the clock.

The Technogym-equipped fitness center is compact and well-outfitted, ideal for an early morning workout or an evening wind-down. Open twenty-four-seven and accessible with your room key, personal training is available on request with advance booking.
Spa

Personalized treatments in an intimate setting.

The Drisco's single treatment room offers a focused menu of professional treatments performed by expert therapists. Arrive five minutes before your appointment to settle into the lounge with a cup of herbal tea and a private pre-treatment consultation with your therapist. Bathrobes are provided in your room.
Restaurant + Bar

Modern Israeli cuisine.

George & John serves a modern Israeli menu rooted in local, seasonal ingredients, led by Chef Yaron Fishniak. The wine list spans around 250 labels, with a broad selection of local and international bottles. The historic dining room was carefully restored between 2010 and 2018 by a team of conservators, and retains much of its original character. A private event room accommodates up to twenty-four guests for intimate dinners, family celebrations, or business gatherings.

The bar at George & John is worth a stop whether you're settling in for the evening or just passing through. Signature cocktails change with the seasons, designed to complement whatever Chef Fishniak is doing in the kitchen, and the spirits selection runs deep for those who like to explore.
