Baron Hotel is one of the most authentic and fascinating places we have ever experienced. It was like it had been frozen in time and we left the Baron feeling deeply privileged having experienced such a truly unique and charming gem - living history! If in Aleppo, do not miss this step back in the times of Agatha Christie and... More

One of the most atmospheric places I've ever stayed in; as other reviewers have said it's not up to 5* luxury modern standards, but that's not why you would stay here. The rooms are huge, clean and are furnished with antiques from the heyday of the hotel. The guy who runs the bar downstairs speaks French, little English, but that's... More

As a lot of the other reviewers have commented the Baron has its flaws but none of them should put you off staying here unless you are insistent on 5* luxury. The Baron oozes character and staying in the hotel is like stepping back 50 years. The rooms and spacious, clean and comfortable. The staff are reasonably helpful and the... More

The Baron Hotel exceeded my expectations. It is true that its rooms have seen better days, but our room was clean and comfortable, and we loved having a balcony that overlooked the main street. The feeling of faded glory that one finds in many places in the Middle East was definitely present here, and if you want all the amenities... More

An experience that anyone staying in Aleppo should not miss out on, unless your preference in hotels is the anonymous hermetically sealed box. This hotel is steeped in history and is so laid back it's like home from home. Faded and threadbare it may be but that is part of it's charm. However it was getting a bit of a... More

If you want to take your stand in a part of history, this is the place. The high ceiling and the dusky corridor will bring you to the days of early 20th centuries. All the facilities are so old, but the central heating works well and you will feel confortable even in wintertime. My fabourite place is the bar, of... More

Staying here is a really unique experience. The exterior is stunning, as is the bar. You could probably soak up most of the glory of the place by spending an evening in the bar but we decided to book 1 night here and then spend 2 nights at the Mandaloun. This turned out to be a pretty good plan as... More

I stayed only one night in Baron Hotel. Receptionist was not so friendly but he gave me good info about the Aleppo, e.g., restaurant, train schedule etc. The room I stayed was one of the cheapest room but I should stay better room where famous people stayed. My room and bathroom was very clean and could get hot water. They... More

Heavenly - a reason in itself to visit Syria. Hard to book a room even well in advance, shabby, holes in the carpets, run to seed but like stepping into a 1936 film. When I was there in 2007 most rooms were $40 but I paid $70 for the suite where Assad snr stayed in the 70s. Please stay here... More

The Baron hotel is clearly very old and has lots of stories to tell! It has a lot of charachter, and it's a lovely old building. The bedrooms are clean, a bit basic and uninspiring, but functional. Some of the shutters on our windows had clearly seen better days and so every time the windows were opened pigeons tried to... More
