The Dave Gordon—Son of a Brown

This budget hotel, located in a preserved Bauhaus building, boasts a central location and bordello-inspired aesthetic that sets it apart from most of the other properties in the Brown Hotel chain. We’re talking flea market furnishings, blood red walls, and abundant spots to schmooze. It also has convenient access to both Gordon Beach and the many bustling bars of Dizengoff Street. The rooms, like the rest of the hotel, are 70s-style vintage, and range from a “Solo Room” to the most extravagant “Foxy Superior Room," which is on the fourth floor (no elevator, though the staff is happy to help you with your luggage) and includes a complimentary minibar and a freestanding tub. All rates include breakfast. Guests are greeted with a glass of cold beer on arrival, and invited to enjoy the complimentary coffee, popcorn and snacks served 24/7 on the leafy outdoor patio.
