Peter Ustinov (Jaffa)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Baron Peter Ustinov was the owner of the Park Hotel (Hotel du Parc) in Jaffa, Israel. The mansion that became the hotel was built originally for the prophet George Adams. It was later acquired by the London Society for Promoting Christianity amongst the Jews and is today a youth hostel and community centre.

Baron Ustinov was the grandfather of famous British-Russian actor Peter Ustinov.
