Al Pasha Hotel is located in Old Damascus, a major cradle of many civilizations. This grand “old city” is a great testimony to a wealth of historical sites dating back to precious periods. It was the capital of the Aramean Kingdom in the 11th Century BC; the Omayyad’s fiefdom and Saladin’s headquarters.
And according to the Old Testament, it is only a very short walking distance from this Hotel, just off via recta, that St. Paul had the revelation of Faith.Al Pasha Hotel itself is one treasure of the Old City of Damascus. It is the result of adjoining three separate 18th Century old Damascene homes. Built in a courtyard style with its distinctive and genuine early 20th Century decor, no effort was spared in safeguarding as many architectural details and furniture items as possible. Whole walls were restored exactly as they originally were and, when that proved impossible, they were built in exact replica. The genuine and authentic walls & corners of the hotel tell the stories of pride and glory.Those stories will make our valued guests feel the breeze of the past and live the hospitality of the present
