VOICED : Un hotel en medio de la guerra

The Barón Hotel in Aleppo, built in 1911, is the city's oldest hotel. Located near the Syrian conflict's front lines, it was closed in 2012 due to the war. Despite the closure, owner Armen Mazlumián reminisces about its past glory, hosting figures like Agatha Christie. The hotel's deterioration reflects the high costs of maintenance amid ongoing conflict. The Syrian civil war, which began in 2011, has devastated much of Aleppo, leaving the hotel's future uncertain.
