American Colony Hotel

The American Colony Hotel is a luxury hotel located in a historic building in Jerusalem which previously housed the utopian American-Swedish community known as the American Colony.
==History==
The building was originally built and owned by an Ottoman Pasha Rabbah Daoud Amin Effendi al-Husseini, who lived there with his harem of four wives. Soon after his fourth marriage, al-Husseini died. In 1895, the building was sold to a group of messianic Christians who arrived in Jerusalem in 1881 and set up a commune. Their leader was Horatio Spafford, a lawyer from Chicago and his wife, Anna. In 1896, the Americans were joined by two groups of Swedish settlers. 〔 ''Street People'', Helga Dudman, Carta, Jerusalem, 1982, pp. 83-104.〕 This Christian utopian society became known as the American Colony. 〔(The Englishwoman who ran an oasis in the heart of the conflict - Haaretz - Israel News )〕
In 1902, the Jaffa hotelier Plato von Ustinov (grandfather of the British actor Peter Ustinov) was looking for a place to put up guests visiting Jerusalem and asked the Spaffords to accommodate them. Soon after, the building was turned into a hotel.〔(Saudi Aramco World : Hotels With a History )〕
