They built the Dan hotel around the original pension, finally purchasing the Kaete Dan in 1956. Adopting the name from the previous owner, they formed the Dan Hotels Corporation. The [[Dan Hotel, Tel Aviv|Dan Tel Aviv]] in 1953 was the city's first luxury hotel. In 1957, the Federmanns purchased the [[King David Hotel]] in [[Jerusalem]].
