With a 1,000 square meter pool:
we got a first look at one of the most prestigious hotels in Israel that will open during the year.
This is the first hotel from the Swissotel chain that is expected to open towards the summer.
The hotel will open on the coastline between Bat Yam and Rishon Lezion with more than 520 rooms.
In the first phase only 266 rooms will be opened and about a year later all the rest.
The hotel is expected to have three pools: the largest of which will be 1,000 square meters in size with a direct view of the Mediterranean Sea.
Another pool will be with water from the Dead Sea.

In the spa sector, the hotel is expected to open the chain's home brand.
The spa will include 15 treatment rooms, saunas and a 3,000 square meter gym.
An Italian restaurant, a Mediterranean restaurant and an alcohol bar are expected to operate in the hotel.

The Swissotel hotel chain belongs to the French Accor chain, a French brand that owns more than 40 different chains, including Raffles Rixos, Movenpick, Sofitel, Ibis, Mandarin, Orient Express and Pullman.
The hotel will be built a few minutes' walk from the light rail station that will connect Bat Yam with Tel Aviv in the future.
The person who will serve as the CEO of the hotel is Danny Ronan. The architectural office that designed the hotel's design is Feigin Architects, which is also responsible for the Berashit Hotel, Royal Beach and many hotels in Israel and around the world.
