Hotel Dar Al Noor

If you are looking for a holiday with a difference, then book a stay at the 200-year-old Dar Al Noor 3-star Hotel in Damascus, an enchanting property which oozes character and has all the hallmarks of elegant Damascene architecture. Situated in an alley of the main street which links two of the city gates, it places visitors in an ideal location for exploring this magical city. From the moment you set foot in the hotel, you won't fail to appreciate the impressive interiors, including stone ornaments, carved doors and marble-faced walls with spectacular engravings. A narrow passage from the entrance takes you through a lovely courtyard, where your senses are tantalised by the smell of jasmine and the sound of tinkling fountains. The foyer is enhanced by works of art and a warm welcome by the hospitable staff. Guests are invited to make themselves completely at home, and the hotel benefits from lounge areas, underfloor heating and free Internet access.
