  5* price 2* hotel

  Do not stay there! PROS - None CONS - The hotel is classified as 5-star, but it is incredibly shabby and run down. Looks like it was a 5* in the 60s. - Pricing, as in all Cham Hotels, is totally crazy. You call the central reservation office and you get a rate, than the day after upon checkin you are presented with a totally different price which can be double as in this case. So we called the reservation office in front of the receptionist, so that he could hear the rate that we were supposed to pay. Of course he had to agree, but he messed up with the meal plan, and we had to pay breakfast separately (and they charged us an incredible amount of money for a poor breakfast).

  Probably the worst money you will ever spend!

  I would say in 20 years of travelling and some 200+ hotels visited this easily rates as the worst value hotel I have ever stayed at. The hotel is stuck in a time warp, it looks to have been built in the seventies with no investment made in the hotel in the following 30+ years. The decor is cheap and nasty and in many cases worn out. Quite simply this place is worth no more than UK£40 per night but seems to charge this ludicrous price based it being the only high end hotel in the region and it getting business far to easily. I have no idea how it can ever be rated as five star, I have stayed in better two star hotels. The positives were limited to helpful, friendly staff. The negatives are endless: Crazy room rate, food and drink prices Terrible decor No atmosphere in any of the hotel bars and restaurants Terrible breakfast (the worst in all the the seven Syrian hotels we used) Possibly the worst bed I have ever slept in Filthy swimming pool Poor facilities If you have a choice I would recommend avoiding this hotel or at least making sure you pay the lowest rate you can

  For the price - not very good

  Positives: Next to the magnificent Euphrates river. The restaurant has (indoor) tables overlooking the river - fantastic. Negatives: Expensive - triple the price of the hotel that no less than 6 locals recommended to me after I had already made my booking at this one. I arrived at 8pm and was told I could not use the pool until 11am the next day, after I checked out. Despite being the *only* guest in this massive hotel, the manager was unwilling to budge on this, The tv remote didn't work (I put in working batteries, but it was just plain broken). There were 9 channels on TV, of which 5 were the same german TV show. The only English speaking channel was the US Armed Forces TV channel (in Syria??!!) I paid 90 Euros for a "River View" room, 20 euros more than the standard room. However the window was locked and could not be opened, and besides, was behind a net curtain that could not be moved. To see the river you had to climb under the net curtain and press your face against the glass. The internet service was outrageously expensive (about US$15 for 3 hours), and not very good - I could browse web pages but not download email. Breakfast was not included in the price. For one orange juice, two croissants and a selection of burnt pastries, it cost me another US$10.

  Syrian adventure

  I stayed there for about three weeks back in 2003 the hotel was lovely, clean and brilliant views over the Euphrates river, not much of a choice for food but it was good never the less. I was working in the oilfields at the time so only spent very little time in the hotel.
