Unique Properties
The Elmina Hotel (port in Arabic) is located in the heart of Jaffa, a few steps from the Clock Square and the Jaffa Port. An intimate 10-room boutique hotel, in an ancient Ottoman building, facing the old city of Jaffa and the Mediterranean Sea. The overall look is both nostalgic and modern, an urban experience that combines oriental charm with European chic.
