With an investment of more than 20 million ILS, the boutique hotel “Raphael House” was launched – the first hotel in Rishon Lezion. The hotel has 30 spacious rooms and a luxurious suite designed in a classic and elegant style that corresponds with the history of the building that was preserved and built in the 18th century by Baron Rothschild.

In the past, the building was used as the officials’ house and the city hall, and over the years it has preserved its character, style and roots. Due to the history of the building, its concept – feel Rothschild – was also derived. The hotel was founded by businessman and hotel owner Yoad Sarusi, a resident of Rishon Lezion himself.

The hotel is built to the highest standards and qualities with an emphasis on the smallest details – both at the product level, and at the service level down to the smallest details so that every guest feels no less than the baron himself. When you arrive at the hotel, you will receive a glass of champagne and a personal escort to your room. During your stay, you can enjoy a spacious and beautiful patio full of vegetation, good music and a business lounge that will provide coffee, tea, water, tea infusions and other treats throughout the day, alongside a health corner, cookies and crisps.

The rooms are equipped with exclusive and advanced accessories: a Nespresso coffee machine, tea infusions, a 55-inch Sony IPTV smart TV with a connection to Netflix and Yes channels, exclusive edition sweet popcorn (on arrival at the hotel), mini fridge, 2 bottles of water, slippers and soft and pleasant robes.

The location of the hotel in the center of the city makes it a magnet for all the cultural, historical and entertainment centers of the city that are close to it and that’s not all – because the hotel will offer its guests a rich content and cultural package that includes unique collaborations with the city’s strong cultural institutions: from LIVE Park Rishon Lezion to The cultural hall in the city.
