What a wonderful start. A stuuning piece of Damascus history - they call it a boutique hotel but that does not do it justice, even though it was a first for Damascus. This luxury 17th century 8 bedroom hotel is built around a central courtyard (see photo) with citrus trees and a fountain and is located in the Christian quarter of Damascus' old city. Step outside and you will be within minutes walk from the rambling souks and the ancient culture that the old city has to offer. Alissar and Roula were just fantastic as the hosts. The stay was so good we re-booked for another (our last night) in Syria. Highly recommended if you can get a booking! http://www.almamlouka.com/
