Baron Hotel
Best time to visit
Sidst på eftermiddagen, når det gyldne lys bader facaderne og den gamle bydel i varme toner. Terrasserne byder da på de mest fotogene udsigter ved behagelige temperaturer.
Budget tips
Entréen er i øjeblikket symbolsk og ofte gratis. Spørg i receptionen efter en rundvisning, mange restauratorer fortæller gerne historien mod en lille donation.

About
Quick facts: The hotel hosted the famous British explorers T.E. Lawrence and Agatha Christie, who wrote parts of "Murder on the Orient Express" while staying there. Its striking Art Deco interior features an enormous stained-glass ceiling that survived decades of conflict largely intact.
Highlights: Under the grand central dome, a 1,000-square-meter stained-glass canopy casts kaleidoscopic light across the marble floors every afternoon. The hotel's once-abandoned basement hides a clandestine Cold War-era bomb shelter, complete with original ventilation shafts and faded political murals.
Insider tips
- Bed om adgang til værelse 203, Agatha Christies tidligere arbejdsværelse, hvis det er tilgængeligt.
- Den øverste terrasse er det bedste fotospot til solnedgangen over citadellet i Aleppo.
- Bær solide sko, da dele af bygningen stadig er under restaurering, og gulvet kan være ujævnt.
- Kom tidligt om morgenen eller sidst på eftermiddagen for at undgå store rejsegrupper.
