Brown Hotels is a rapidly-growing boutique hotel brand with roots in Tel Aviv, conceived by two native Israelis, Leon Avigad & Nitzan Perry with partner Nir Waizman.
The properties are characterised as small, jewel-like hotels that stress design; the collection currently includes four hotels in Tel Aviv, two in Jerusalem, and one in Croatia, including the Brown TLV, Brown Beach House, Poli House and Dave West in Tel Aviv, Villa Brown Jerusalem and Villa Ba’Moshava in Jerusalem, and Brown Beach House Croatia in Trogir, Croatia..
Founded in 2003 by Hotelier Leon Avigad, Brown Hotels evolved out of the desire to introduce a collection of boutique hotels to Israel.
