Tiberias (Israel) - Scots Hotel

Tiberias (Israel) - Scots Hotel

Our home for the next two nights was the unique Scots Hotel in Tiberias.   The hotel started as a medical centre in the 1880s by a young Scottish doctor, who believed in his mission to heal the people of the Holy Land.   The hospital continued operating as a maternity hospital untill 1959, and was later converted into a guest house, and in 1999, the Church Of Scotland decided to open a full fledged unique hotel.  Certainly looks like it could be in Scotland.

The 2nd floor of the The Doctor's House building. 

And our funky suite 606.

The shared terrace for the four guest rooms on the 2nd floor of The Doctor's House. 

And the views from the terrace.

Some more pics from the next day stroll around the property.

And 

And the lovely view of the Sea of Galliee with the Golan Heights on the opposite shore.

Breakfast each morning was in The Torrance Restaurant which features an elaborate and excellent breakfast buffet.
