Opened in April 2022, The David Kempinski Tel Aviv marked the Kempinski group’s first property in Israel. Located on Tel Aviv’s beachfront, the 34-story property boasts 250 rooms, most with sea views, including 56 suites and a triplex penthouse, as well as exceptional dining and entertainment facilities. With a deep commitment to five-star service and accommodation, The David Kempinski Tel Aviv has, since opening, undoubtedly become a new benchmark for the city’s luxury hotel offerings.
