Baron Hotel

Barron Hotel, Aleppo
On our last evening in Aleppo, we stopped next door at the Barron Hotel for a drink in their bar. The Baron is steeped in history. Hosting the likes of Charles Lindbergh, Theodore Roosevelt, and TE Lawrence (Lawrence of Arabia). Agatha Christie started her book Murder on the Orient Express while a guest there. Looking around the room as I consumed my beverage, I couldn’t help but wonder if these walls could talk, what stories could they tell?
